Boots Showstoppers set is worth over £320

One of the best ways to cut down spending on beauty is to invest in gift sets or product collections.

Boots’ curated box features a variety of 18 premium beauty products, from skincare to makeup and with full-sized items from Huda Beauty, Too Faced and Fenty. The contents are worth £328.43 but the box retails for £80.

Lots of brands have released beauty advent calendars this year, but many are a bit of a splurge, costing up to hundreds of pounds.

Boots has created a box containing 18 products, showcasing plenty of the premium brands that are stocked at the beauty retailer.

The contents are worth £328.43, but the box only costs £80, so there’s a considerable saving to be made.

The box could be used to treat yourself and top up your makeup stash, or to split into gifts or stocking fillers for Christmas.

It’s worth keeping in mind that there are still quite a few minis and some are very small, so it might only be a worthwhile buy if you’re interested in trying the products that are full sizes.

LOOKFANTASTIC also has some great alternatives that are cheaper but still handy for trying a variety of brands, and the Extraordinary Beauty Edit features mostly full sizes.

Boots shoppers have been leaving reviews on the limited edition box, with some saying they’re ‘super impressed’.

ChloeB1904 said: ”I received this box today and must say I’m very impressed. You get a good amount of products all valuable. Mix of skincare and makeup which is what I like. Definitely recommend!”

FrankieX commented: ”I’ve just bought this and am super impressed with it. I’ve treated myself as I will use everything. This is a great way of trying a range of skincare and cosmetic brands at a more affordable price. Especially considering the eyeshadow palette alone retails for £48. This would make an impressive Christmas gift or you could take out any items you fancy for yourself and gift the rest to others. Most items are boxed so would make brilliant individual gifts. Grab this while you can!”

Karmen also added: ”I bought this last week and I got everything but the benefit voucher 🙁 the minis are VERY MINI and probably won’t last long but the Pixi toner and Huda ice lip gloss is a win.”
