Philosophy comes back to Boots - with a GWP in tow...

It's been around 10 years since US brand Philosophy has been stocked in Boots. Damn, I feel old writing that. But it was with youthful glee that I rushed to the stand in Tottenham Court Road Boots the other evening, to take a closer look at the shiny new display of my old favourite Philosophy products.

The Philosophy offering that's just landed in stores is an edited line-up of skincare, fragrance and the much-loved 3 in 1 bath and shower gels, plus a few gift sets. (I'd guess there will be plenty more seasonal items added to the line-up if the brand proves to be a success for Boots this time around.) I also spotted a limited edition mini tub of their Hope in a Jar moisturiser at the trial-friendly price of £10 (it's usually £34 for a full size jar), although this doesn't seem to have made it onto the website.

There's currently a rather tempting GWP on Philosophy too - buy 2 products and get a mini gift set with 4 trial-size products in it. Will I be indulging? Well, it's an emotional reunion, so if my debit card should temporarily be compromised, I'm sure it would be understandable...
