If you could do with a bit of a beauty restock you really need to check out Boots who have just released a range of excellent value beauty boxes. While last week our top pick was the Boots Pamper Beauty Box which contains 10 luxury skincare essentials worth £156 for just £40. Boots has just launched a Hello Summer beauty box filled with a range of travel skincare and make-up minis you need for your summer getaway.
Not only is it extremely helpful to remind you that yes, you do need to pack a mini perfume, but having these seven handy mini products means you won't have to wrestle with your suitcase either. Ranging from glow-boosting skincare to mood-lifting fragrance and hydrating essentials, this curated collection is your ultimate holiday-ready refresh.
From glow-boosting skincare to mood-lifting fragrance and hydrating must-haves, this curated collection has all your holiday minis sorted.
Whether you're jet-setting or stay-caying, these minis are bound to come in handy and will ensure your skin stays hydrated, glowing, and smelling like summer.
All housed in a reusable see-through zip pouch, it's also incredibly practical for going through security and will keep your items safe.
For starters, let's talk about the excellent value - you're getting seven premium skincare and make-up minis from brands like MAC, Bobbi Brown, Rituals, Laneige, Floral Street, and more for just £32. That works out to just under £4.60 per mini.
There's no denying the value in this box, as the same travel-sized Laneige Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturiser usually retails for £19.50. The Milk Makeup Multi-Use Lip + Cheek Cream Stick retails for £22 and the Floral Street Sunflower Pop Eau de Parfum retails for a whopping £29.
Now, let's get into some of my favourite items. Firstly, I'm a massive fan of the Milk Lip + Cheek Tint - it has been one of my holy grail make-up products for years. This shade is a lovely light blush that would look great on all skin tones, and I love that it's two-in-one, so you can use it on both your lips and cheeks and be ready to go. It's ideal, especially when you're on your summer holiday and prefer lighter make-up.
I also wasn't expecting to like the MAC mascara as much as I do. It has a great dual-sided curved brush that captures every lash for enhanced lift, and I found it offers a buildable, clump-free finish that had instant results.

The Laneige moisturiser was lightweight and fast-absorbing - two standout qualities of a great moisturiser - and I found it kept my skin well hydrated. It also paired well with the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base primer that is infused with glow-boosting vitamins and hydration heroes.
Next onto scents, while the Floral Street Sunflower Pop Eau de Parfum has over 100 five-star reviews with shoppers saying it 'smells amazing' and like 'summer in a bottle', it was a tad too strong for me. It's described as a 'vibrant, sumptuous citrus blend', designed to bring to life the beauty and optimism of Van Gogh's 'Sunflowers'.
Milk - Lip + Cheek In The Shade Werk Full Size (6 g)
MAC - Stack Elevated Mascara Mini (8 ml)
Bobbi Brown - Vitamin Enriched Face Base (15 ml)
Laneige - Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturiser (20 ml)
Floral Street - Sunflower Pop EDP (10 ml)
Sol De Janeiro - Cheirosa 62 (30 ml)
Rituals - The Ritual Of Karma Shimmering Body Oil (30 ml)
I much preferred the extremely popular Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist, which also smells like summer with warming notes of pistachio, almond, salted caramel and vanilla.
Lastly, the Rituals Shimmering Body Oil refreshed my dull-looking skin with a subtle shimmer for a healthy, luminous glow. I'll definitely use it when wearing skirts or for special occasions to add a little extra radiance.
