Luxury £40 beauty box is worth £180 and includes a full-size £36 Caudalie ‘elixir of youth'
Boots has just dropped its latest beauty box, and for just £40 you can get almost £180 worth of products including Caudalie's glow-boosting spray inspired by the elixir of youth
A beauty box is the perfect way to try out new products, stock up on some old faithfuls, and generally just restock your beauty cabinet without breaking the bank. So when Boots launched its latest The Beauty Drop Beauty Box for just £40, we knew it would be an instant winner for beauty lovers.
Despite its £40 price tag, the box contains £178.40 worth of products, spanning skincare, makeup, haircare and perfume. You'll get nine products – six of which are full size – in the box, including a full size bottle of Caudalie's Beauty Elixir which costs £36 on its own.
Considering the box costs just £4 more than the full size Caudalie mist, it's a guaranteed bargain for any beauty fan, getting you £138.40 worth of freebies. The Caudalie mist is based on the centuries old 'elixir of youth' used by Queen Isabelle of Hungary, and promises to instantly brighten your skin whilst giving it a refreshing and hydrating boost.
The other items in The Beauty Drop Beauty Box include:
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
The versatile collection of products in the The Beauty Drop Beauty Box should suit just about any skin tone and type, and provide all the hydration and glow-boosting you need to see out the rest of the summer. The Ordinary's Hyaluronic Acid and the Q+A Salicylic Acid Smoothing Lotion will keep your skin hydrated, soft and smooth, whilst the FUL conditioner gives your hair some added moisture to counteract the drying heat.
You've also got essentials like Hello Sunday's SPF50 Serum and the refreshing Beauty Elixir from Caudalie, whilst Floral Street's Sweet Almond Blossom perfume is the perfect sweet floral scent for summer. Then you can finish off your beauty look with Iconic London's Cheek Glow for the ultimate summer look.
We also spotted The August Beauty Box at LookFantastic which is perfect for those on a tight budget, costing just £15 but being worth more than £60. It features travel-friendly sizes of everything you need for summer, including a full cleansing routine, SPF, and humidity-fighting haircare from brands like Medik8 and Color Wow, as well as a sample bottle of Valentino's Born in Roma perfume.
Space NK has also dropped The Summer Glow Edit for £65, which is worth £158 and contains brands like Tatcha, Sunday Riley, Tata Harper and more. Everything in the box helps with glow-boosting, skin brightening and hydrating, giving you everything you need for summer.
