A BEAUTY fan who spent £6.50 on a haul in Boots clearance sales has been hit with sceptical comments.
Shannon Antonette was chuffed to find shea butter hair products for an eye-watering 90% cheaper than the retail price.
Dubious shoppers weighed in that there is “probably a reason behind” the hefty discounts.
Shannon said on Tik Tok: “Okay guys, so hear me out.
“I went into Boots the other day and saw that SheaMoisture were doing a clearance sale on some of their shampoo and conditioners.”
SheaMoisture is a hair and skincare brand owned by Unilever.

A blurb on Boots website reads: “SheaMoisture is a range of natural haircare products.
“Designed to tame curls, restore hydration levels, improve hair texture and leave hair looking and feeling healthy.
“Each product is made with organic and natural ingredients that are sustainably sourced and never tested on animals.”
The brand’s manuka honey and yoghurt shampoo was down to £1.85 from £10.99, and so was the conditioner.

Other shampoos were just 69p.
Shannon said: “You know I went to the till, double checked the price and then cleared the shelf.”
But SheaMoisture’s ethical and organic credentials weren’t another to put off sceptics from weighing in on the discounts.
One said: “Not everything reduced is worth it.
“There is a reason behind these reductions.”
Another chimed in: “Hmm, something is going on with SheaMoisture.”
Shannon’s video has totted up almost 90,000 views – and not every viewer was concerned by the discounts.
Others suggested the brand might be updating its packaging and needs retailers to clear old stock before the new bottles are shelved.
