Get a free Sol de Janeiro tote bag with exclusive Space NK bundle worth over £45
This £45 Sol de Janeiro gift set comes with cult-fave minis and a beach-ready tote you'll use all summer, thanks to an exclusive bundle from Space NK Nothing screams summer more than a Sol de Janeiro body mist and Bum Bum cream, and now with an exclusive Space NK gift set, you can grab both of these items, plus a mini body oil and canvas tote bag. The set in question is the Sol de Janeiro The Sol Tote + Body Essentials, priced at £45. And what's included is: 1x Canvas Mini Bag, 1x Brazilian Bum Bum Cream 50ml, 1x Firmeza Body Oil 12ml, 1x Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist 90ml. The price alone of the Cheirosa Mist and Bum Bum cream would equal to just under £45, so you're essentially getting the minitarure tote bag (which is adorable by the way) plus a miniature body oil for no extra cost.

So what exactly is the scent of the body mist in Sol de Janeiro's set? It's number 62, a rich and sweet blend of pistachio, jasmine, and salted caramel, which the brand says is supposed to transport you to a hot, sunny day on the glorious coast of Rio. The cult-favourite Bum Bum Cream ('boom boom' in Brazil!) is also included in this summer set. Packed with guaraná, cupuaçu butter, coconut and açaí oils, it hydrates deeply while helping skin feel firmer and super soft. And like the Cheirosa mist, the scent is a dreamy mix of pistachio, salted caramel and vanilla. It's literally a holiday in a tub.

One shopper wrote: "I love Murad products. Retinol in your 30s is a 'must' and this is a good mild one. I've used it for a couple of years now and love both how it feels on and the smell." We're big fans of a few other mild retinol products, including Medik8's Crystal Retinal, priced at £69, and First Aid Beauty's 0.3% Retinol Complex Serum with Peptides, currently £33 down from £44. A second fan of Murad's set praised: "This is my first experience with retinol and I've had no issues despite having sensitive skin! I had a sample of this to try and loved the results so purchased this when it was 60% off. Insane bargain, quality and premium feel to the product as always." One criticism came from a customer who wrote: "Only real complaint is the added fragrance, but that is a given with Murad". So if your skin is particularly sensitive to fragrance this may not work for you.
