‘I found how to get a £42 Medik8 serum for £5 in a beauty deal that saves over £150'
Beauty boxes are a fantastic way to sample new products, replenish your existing favourites or treat someone to a bumper beauty bundle. They often come with massive savings too – and here's a brand new one that offers you incredible products and value for money.
OK! Beauty Box has joined forces with make-up artist and social media sensation Genevieve Turley – whose hilarious and down-to-earth videos you've likely seen on your Instagram or TikTok feed – to create her very own limited-edition beauty edit, featuring 11 of her favourite skincare and make-up products from top brands such as Medik8, Rodial and Gatineau.
Impressively, 10 of the 11 products inside are full size – including a cult classic Medik8 serum – and the total value comes to over £210, yet the box usually costs £59.99 to purchase. However, there's a way for Mirror readers to save even more.
Purchase it now through this link, or by using the code MIRRORGEN at the checkout, and you'll get it for £54.99 instead of £59.99, while stocks last. This means a whopping £155 saving, and means that each of the 11 products inside can be thought of as having a value of £4.99 each.
In our exclusive chat with Gen, she said, "I've had so many beauty boxes over the years and always thought, 'What would I put in mine?' So when this happened I was delighted – and prepared! I wanted great products that will make a big impact for women.
"This box is a great opportunity to try products you may not have heard of or been afraid to splurge on, but with the massive saving, it takes away that worry."
For me, the standout item inside is Medik8 C-Tetra. An absolute cult favourite skincare product and a go-to amongst countless beauty experts (myself included), this is a brilliant, foolproof vitamin C serum that moisturises and brightens the complexion, and has almost 1,500 five-star reviews on the Medik8 website alone. Gen reveals that "it really helped reduce my pigmentation from my second pregnancy".
A full-size 30ml bottle (which is what you receive in the box) costs £42 alone, so for an additional £13 you're getting 10 other beauty products alongside it.
Other standouts inside include a £39 dewy Rodial blush, a luxe brown eyeliner pencil and "one of [Gen's] favourite products of this year", Gatineau Collagene Expert Hydra Essence. But honestly, there's not a disappointing product in here – everything's incredibly wearable and simple to use, even if you're not a make-up expert.
Here's a list of everything you get inside:
Medik8 C-Tetra Lipid 7% Vitamin C Radiance Serum - 30ml full-size, worth £42
Rodial Blush Drops in the shade Apricot Sorbet - 15ml full-size, worth £39
Delilah Eye Line Long Wear Retractable Pencil in the shade Twig - 0.312g full-size, worth £23
Pixi EOD Cleansing Oil - 150ml full-size, worth £14
Gatineau Collagene Expert™ Hydra Essence - 30ml travel-size, worth £14
Makeup Revolution Bright Light Highlighter in the shade Radiance Bronze - 3ml full-size, worth £8
Sunkissed Curl & Flex Waterproof Mascara in the shade Black - 10g full-size, worth £5.99
Pippa of London Defining Lip Liner in the shade 601 Gerana - full-size, worth £15
Pippa of London Supermatte Lipstick in the shade 404 Scala - full-size, worth £19
Dr. Paw Paw Shea Butter Lip Balm - 25ml full-size, worth £9.25
Brushworks Dewy Fine Mist Setting Spray - 150ml full-size, worth £6.99
A voucher to redeem for four copies of OK! Magazine - RRP £18.40
However, if you're not a big fan of make-up, this box might not be for you as over half of the products are make-up items. You might be more interested in a skincare-focused box like Lookfantastic's The Skin Renewal Edit, which is valued at £210 but costs £45, or the Boots X Supergoop! Beauty Bag Edit, priced at £44 but worth over £90 (we've reviewed this one here).
If you're keen on getting your hands on the OK! Beauty Box by Genevieve Turley, I wouldn't wait, as I predict it will be snapped up quickly.

Channel 4 Escape to the Chateau Strawbridges' rare update has fans emotional
(Image: (Channel 4 images must not be altered or manipulated in any way) CHANNEL 4 PICTURE PUBLICITY 124 HORSEFERRY ROAD LONDON SW1P 2TX) Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Dick and Angel Strawbridge, the beloved couple who have been entertaining us on screen for over a decade, along with their children, are creating more enchanting memories. The popular pair took to Instagram today (August 10) to share a collection of photos from their incredible holiday in Australia. The family can be seen posing together in charming photos and enjoying the local wildlife, with kangaroos and snakes making appearances in the pictures. Posting on The Strawbridge Family account, they captioned it: "Thank you Australia for the magical memories. More to come on our adventures.. but we had to share some of our favourite pictures. "We have hugged, laughed and swapped stories with so many.. it's really been truly amazing. Thank you for the love. Until the next time!" Fans rushed to the comments section, many expressing surprise at how much their children, Arthur and Dorothy, have grown since viewers last saw them on Escape to the Chateau, reports the Mirror. One fan shared: "One, I just want to cry. Looking at Dorothy and Arthur and how they have grown. I've watched your beautiful family from the beginning of the Chateau show (which I miss). They are beautiful. Dorothy is gorgeous and Arthur is exceedingly handsome." One social media user remarked: "I cannot believe how much Dorothy and Arthur have grown. I remember how little they were. I watched your TV programme from the very beginning." Another agreed, saying: "Surreal to see how grown up the kids are considering we're still seeing reruns of the Chateau when Arthur was 9! So glad you've enjoyed our beautiful country." A fourth chimed in: "Cannot believe how much the kids have grown! Hope you all had a wonderful time." Escape to the Chateau followed the family's journey as they purchased and renovated the 19th-century Château de la Motte-Husson, in Martigné-sur-Mayenne, France. The show first aired on Channel 4 in 2016 and boasted an impressive 50 episodes across nine series before it concluded in December 2022. Explaining their decision to wrap up the show, the couple told HELLO! in 2023: "It was two years ago that we decided to end the Escape to the Chateau series. "We made the decision because the kids are growing older, and all the parallel activity was not sustainable at this level. We are doers and we are never going to stop completely, but we're also protecting them. "Arthur is starting senior school and the pressure on our little ones is phenomenal. When he goes there, people may have heard that his parents have done stuff on television." Angel added: "Up until this year, we were not on French television at our request because while we are the British family that bought the Chateau in the village, we are very much completely normal."

Balamory icon drops major hint they'll have brand new role in reboot
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A BALAMORY icon has dropped a major hint that she will have a brand new role in the upcoming reboot. BBC bosses last year announced that two new seasons of the hit noughties programme will be screened in 2026. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 8 Filming for the new Balamory reboot has been taking place at Tobermory Credit: @JulietCadzow / Instagram 8 And it teases an iconic star in a new role Credit: Tobermory Bay Tours 8 Juliet Cadzow play Edie McCredie, who was the bus driver in the original show Credit: BBC 8 But she could be driving a whole different vehicle this time around Credit: Tobermory Bay Tours TV execs revealed stars like Julie Wilson Nimmo, who played Miss Hoolie, and Andrew Agnew, who portrayed PC Plum, are back for the new version. Several other actors, including Kim Tserkezie and Juliet Cadzow, will also appear when the revamped series airs on CBeebies and BBC iPlayer. But Juliet could have a different role this time around when the series hits TV screens. The 74-year-old played Edie McCredie in the popular children's television programme from 2002 to 2005. She was one of the main cast members and was the driver and mechanic of the Yellow Daisy bus. But this time around, Edie could be doing something very different. Wonderful to be back on Mull filming Balamory Juliet Cadzow Snaps shared on Instagram appear to show Juliet driving a boat while filming on Tobermory on the Isle of Mull for the last two weeks. She was dressed in a blue outfit, which was Edie's favourite colour, and which also looked a little like a delivery costume. She was also spotted on a yellow and blue boat, which was called Sea Dasher, with Edie McCredie written on a sign on the front alongside an icon of a little open parcel. Tobermory Bay Tours shared photos on social media of Juliet filming on the boat alongside Andrew Agnew. Balamory actor in major career change that is worlds away from the popular noughties BBC kids show The post, on Instagram, said: "A few more behind-the-scenes antics from yesterday with the Balamory crew. "You'll have to wait until next year to find out what pc plum has spotted through the binoculars. "Who's going to be tuning in to watch?" They also shared a video of one of their staff on the bright yellow boat and teased that it was actually their vessel Twilight that was used for Sea Dasher. Tobermory Bay Tours posted yesterday: "Today has definitely been one of a kind! "It's not every day you get to be a 'stunt' double, but Twilight stole the show starring as Edie McCredie's boat, Sea Dasher." Juliet shared her own snaps from her time on Mull for the filming of the reboot show. Posting on Instagram, she said: "Wonderful to be back on Mull filming Balamory". Fans flocked to the comments to share their excitement at the new reboot. One person said: "Wonderful! Cannot wait for another generation of people to love this". Another added: "This is amazing!!! Can't wait for my kids to watch it". Someone else wrote: "Really happy there is another series of ballamory. You all do an amazing job, and can't wait to see the new version of it. Well done Julie". CAST REVEALED THE cast for the upcoming reboot was revealed last month, and fans were instantly excited. However, many spotted that original cast member Rodd Christensen was missing from the line-up. Rodd, from Las Vegas, played Spencer the Painter in the popular children's television programme from 2002 to 2005. One viewer wrote: "Why isn't Spencer (Rodd Christensen) in these photos? Is he going to be in the show?" A third added: "My kids absolutely loved Spencer, we're gutted he's not coming back." Another said: "Will Spencer be a part of the reboot?" Rodd, who now lives in Las Vegas with his family, explained to a fan on Instagram that he would not be involved at this time. He said: "I would've loved to, but I won't be a part of this reboot at this moment." But the new series is set to blend familiar faces with a host of new characters, offering preschoolers a 'joyful mix of stories, comedy, songs and adventures'. Brand new characters include scientist and inventor Ava Potts, played by Danielle Jam, local vet Dr Ollie Carl Spencer, who lives with his two children and the Harbour Master, played by William Andrews. At its heart remains the charming fictional town of Balamory and its lively inhabitants, where brightly-coloured houses cluster around a scenic harbour and life revolves around the nursery school and its caring teacher. And a fourth shared: "I'm really happy to hear that Balamory will make a comeback next year, Juliet!" While a fifth chimed in: "This is very exciting!" Filming will take place both in the studio in Glasgow and on location in Tobermory. The real-life Isle of Mull town inspired the show's iconic setting. Kate Morton, Head of Commissioning BBC Children's and Education, said: "It's wonderful to see some of the original cast returning alongside new faces, creating a perfect mix of nostalgia and discovery for families to enjoy together. "This vibrant new series will delight both children and the grown-ups who remember it fondly." The original Balamory was also shown in Australia, Canada, the US and Hong Kong. 8 Balamory is being filmed in Tobermory, on the Isle of Mull, as well as the studio in Glasgow Credit: Alamy 8 Juliet shared snaps of her time in Mull with fans on Instagram Credit: @JulietCadzow / Instagram 8 The show originally ran from 2002 until 2005 Credit: BBC
