Give Me Cosmetics fans race to nab £35 box with makeup and skincare worth £70
A beauty brand hailing from Liverpool, popular among celebrities, has unveiled a budget-friendly beauty box that offers more than 50% savings on its contents. Give Me Cosmetics is marking its eighth birthday this summer with a plethora of deals and discounts, including the Limited Edition Birthday Mystery Box.
Retailing at £34.99 but brimming with products valued up to £75, the box encompasses nine items across skincare, bodycare and haircare. Inside, you'll find full-size shampoo and conditioner, one of their viral Glazed Lip Oils, exclusive Give Me merchandise, plus a surprise assortment of beauty treats, all presented in a festive birthday design.
The Glazed Lip Oils, featured in the box, were the first-ever makeup product launched by the brand earlier this year. The launch was celebrated with a towel-clad photoshoot at Liverpool's renowned Pier Head, which received widespread acclaim for 'celebrating real beauty with real people'.
Offered in 12 shades, the Glazed Lip Oils merge skincare and colour in a nourishing, non-sticky formula that hydrates and shines. Beauty writer Jada Jones tested them out earlier this year and commended the metal applicator for its 'pleasant cooling sensation'.
She added: "Mocha Motive strikes the perfect balance between pigment and gloss. I would suggest having a cotton bud or wipe handy as application can get a bit messy, but overall, I'm a big fan and I foresee myself reaching for Mocha Motive more than any of my other oils or glosses."
Whilst Give Me Cosmetics has revealed some details of the box, the precise shades and certain specific items remain unknown. This might create anticipation for some customers, others may prefer to know exactly what they're purchasing.
In that case, they might favour the brand's Full Haircare Set. Valued at £67.93, the hair collection is priced at £19.99, featuring seven full-sized hair products designed to restore dry and damaged hair in one convenient set.
Meanwhile, their skincare mega bundle is valued at £185.81, but has been slashed to £64.99. From enriching creams to exfoliating tools, beauty enthusiasts can rest assured knowing their skincare regime is sorted.
They're not the only retailer offering excellent value, however. The OK! Beauty Box contains 11 products. Ten of these are full size – including a cult favourite Medik8 serum. The worth totals over £210, yet the box typically costs £59.99 to purchase.
In other beauty bargain news, it's certainly worth exploring Rodial's outlet section, which frequently features full-size skincare products (including anti-ageing powerhouse formulations) reduced by up to 87%, simply because the packaging is damaged or unboxed.
An anti-ageing component that's long been rumoured to be favoured by Princess Kate is bee venom, and you'll discover plenty of it in Rodial's Bee Venom Moisturiser. Typically retailing at £150 for a 50ml pot, you can purchase it out of the box for £90, representing a 40% discount.
However, Give Me Cosmetics truly is a beauty brand gaining momentum. What began as a single-person venture in 2017 with merely four products has since expanded into a 450-strong product range, dispatching over 2.7 million orders worldwide. Based in Liverpool, the brand has received backing from celebrities including Michelle Keegan, Rita Ora, Emma Bunton, and Nicole Scherzinger.
Its standout product, the Argan Oil and Coconut Oil Hair Mask, continues to be a global bestseller with over 1.5 million units sold to date. Commenting on the mask, Michelle Keegan said: "I'll be honest, I've never heard of it before, didn't know if it was going to work. I used it once and the results were amazing. Took it on holiday and haven't stopped using it since."
Whether you're a devoted fan or keen to sample some of Give Me Cosmetics' products at an affordable price, the Limited Edition Birthday Mystery Box offers shoppers just that opportunity. However, it's worth bearing in mind that this is a one-off release, and once it's sold out, it's gone for good. Shoppers can check out the deal on the Give Me Cosmetics website.
