Product overview
Boots Cucumber Moisturising Face Cream (100g) corresponds to what Boots' official site calls "Boots Everyday Cucumber Moisturising Cream" (100ml) -- made by The Boots Company PLC (part of Walgreens Boots Alliance), Made in the UK.
Sourcing note -- naming/unit variance: the catalog lists this product as "100g" and includes "Face Cream" in the title, while Boots' official product name and packaging use "100ml" and "Cream" (without "Face"). Creams of this type are close to water density, making the gram/millilitre difference immaterial in practice; this is treated as the same product under a slightly different catalog naming convention, not a separate item.
