Deal saves shoppers £116 on Laura Mercier and No7 in beauty box
Beauty fans can snap up the Boots Pamper Beauty Box for £40, which is filled with over £115 worth of beauty products from top brands Laura Mercier, Liz Earle, No7 and Shisedo items have been reduced to £4 each as part of a Bank Holiday offer at Boots. This comes as the health and beauty retailer has unveiled their Pamper Beauty Box, which saves customers over £115 on the contents. Just in time for the extended weekend, the selection is brimming with luxurious skincare and body care goodies worth more than £156 – but shoppers can grab it for £40. The lavish selection includes 10 pampering products, featuring seven full-size items, from popular brands like Liz Earle, BYOMA, and Sundae. As part of the selection, each item costs £4, which is remarkable considering some are valued at more than £20 individually. In fact, the deliciously fragranced Laura Mercier Soufflé Hand Cream in Almond Coconut - a sumptuous hand cream with a velvety finish - would typically cost shoppers £28 alone. Also valued at more than £20 is the Bloom and Blossom Mission Moisture, a deeply hydrating body cream worth £24, as well as the Liz Earle Skin Repair Light Cream, usually priced at £28. The lightweight moisturiser, made with skin-nourishing botanicals that hydrate the skin, is a perfect choice for the warmer weather. Boots isn't the only retailer aiming to treat customers with self-care must-haves, though. LookFantastic is offering the Summer Heroes Edit for £45, which, given it's valued at over £150, equates to a whopping saving of £105 for shoppers, reports Wales Online. This exclusive bundle includes six beauty treasures, featuring four full-sized items from luxury brands such as Sol de Janeiro and ESPA. Space NK also has an exciting collection, inspired by the viral TikTok trend of 'the everything shower'. This luxury selection of bath, body, and haircare products costs £70 and is worth £165, showcasing brands like Sol de Janeiro, Living Proof and Alpha-H. However, it's important to remember that because these boxes are pre-selected, there's no scope for personalisation, which could mean that buyers might discover they don't fancy one or two items, or that some of the contents aren't suitable for their skin type. Therefore, we always advise checking out the full contents before clicking 'add to basket'. Here's what's inside the Boots Pamper Beauty Box:. Byoma Body Smoothing Body Serum 200ml – Full Size - £13.99. Sundae Orange Crush Whipped Shower Foam 265ml – Full Size - £12.95. First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads 28 – Full Size - £18.
