Following the sell-out success of their Love Island beauty edit earlier this month, Boots has launched not one, but two brand new beauty and grooming boxes perfect for the summer weeks ahead, or for saving for festive gifting. The health and beauty favourite has released the Beauty Drop Beauty Box , as well as a collaboration with Men's Health , meaning there's an edit to suit all shoppers.
The Beauty Drop Beauty Box is priced at £40 but is worth £178.40 , saving £138.40 on the RRP. Inside, customers can expect to find a variety of essential beauty products, including skincare, haircare, fragrance, and makeup.
There are nine products in total, working out at £4.44 per product, making the deal even better than Boots' renowned £10 Tuesday event. Some of the brands featured in the haul include the likes of Caudalie, OPI, Floral Street and more .
The Beauty Drop Beauty Box, exclusively available on the Boots website, packs a punch with a range of items from cleanser and serum to conditioner, nail varnish, and fragrance. Presented in a striking pink and yellow striped gift box, it's the perfect present for any beauty enthusiast in your life.
The Caudalie Beauty Elixir is worth nearly the cost of the entire nine-piece set at £36 alone. The 'radiance-revealing' facial mist aims to minimise pores and impart a radiant glow while setting makeup using natural ingredients that calm and hydrate the skin, reports Chronicle Live .

Fragrance fans will no doubt be impressed by Floral Street's Sweet Almond Blossom Perfume, which retails at £29 on the premium fragrance company's site. The popular scent combines fruity and floral elements with apple blossom, passionfruit and pink pomelo blended alongside matcha tea, tonka bean and vanilla.
Meanwhile, the box's FUL Colour Care Conditioner, formulated to shield dyed hair from colour loss whilst enhancing lustre and fortifying locks, carries a £27 price tag when purchased individually. Additionally, the Iconic London Cheek Glow typically costs £25, whilst the Hello Sunday SPF50 Serum is sold for £23.
Here's what you'll find inside the Beauty Drop Beauty Box :.
Caudalie Beauty Elixir 100ml – FULL SIZE
OPI Infinite Shine Longwear Gel-Like Nail Polish - Last Glam Standing 15ml – FULL SIZE
Iconic London Kissed by the Sun Multi-Use Cheek Glow So Cheeky – FULL SIZE
FUL Colour Care Conditioner 250ml – FULL SIZE
Q+A Salicylic Acid Smoothing Lotion – FULL SIZE
Hello Sunday SPF50 Serum 30ml – FULL SIZE
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 15ml
Floral Street Sweet Almond Blossom Perfume 10ml
First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Facial Cleanser 28.3g
Six of the nine items inside the haul are full sizes, although it is worth noting that, regarding the First Aid Beauty cleanser, the size included in the box is 28.3g, not 30ml as stated on the back of pack information. Boots has confirmed that the back of pack information is incorrect.
Boots isn't the only retailer offering beauty boxes that punch above their price tag. The OK! Beauty Box boasts 11 products, 10 of which are full size – including a cult favourite Medik8 serum. Despite the total value exceeding £210, the box typically retails for £59.99.
Elsewhere, LookFantastic is offering skincare fans The Skin Renewal Edit, worth over £210, for £45, ideal for anyone who prefers a focus on anti-ageing - something the Love Island box is lacking, likely due to its target audience skewing younger. The LookFantastic edit features seven anti-ageing essentials like Dr Loretta's Intense Replenishing Serum, Clinique's De-Puffing Eye Massage, and Medik8's Crystal Retinal.
Boots hasn't forgotten about the gents this month, either with a Boots X Men's Health Grooming Edit brimming with top-tier skincare and grooming essentials designed to 'elevate your routine'. This box is a little bit cheaper at £38, but is worth £138.21, so still saving more than £100.

Of course, their downside to these kinds of curated edits is that shoppers may not appreciate every single item in the haul, however, the value does often outweigh the one or two products that may not fit the bill.
