This morning Marks and Spencer has released an unbeatable beauty box this year so far, rivalling the likes of Boots and LookFantastic. It means makeup buffs, anti-ageing devotees and perfume lovers who spend £30 will get £170-worth of beauty products, with 12 products, five of which are are full-size, from luxury brands such as L'Occitane, Clinique, REN and This Works, among others.
Marks and Spencer's The Summer Beauty Bag is available for £30 when you spend £35 on full-price clothes, beauty and homeware, as Chronicle Live reports. However, with the products inside having a combined total of £170, that essentially means you're getting £140-worth of makeup, skincare, hair and perfume for free.
The summer beauty edit is a great way to save a hefty chunk of makeup for those looking to refresh their beauty bags or for anybody wanting to try out the products inside before investing in full-size items. As always, we expect The Summer Beauty Bag is going to sell out fast, so it's worth picking up soon when it's still in stock.
Here's the full list of what's included in the Summer Beauty Bag:
- L'Occitane Verbena Shower Gel (250ml - full size)
- This Works Perfect Legs Body Butter (200ml - full size)
- Fresh Elements Hydrate Overnight Moisture Cream (50ml - full size)
- Pixi Lip Lift Max (2.7g - full size)
- Ren Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic (100ml)
- Floral Street Arizona Bloom Eau de Parfum (10ml)
- Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator (15ml)
- Formula Sleep & Replenish Ultimate Sleep Cream (15ml)
- Discover Sunrise Eau de Toilette (30ml)
- Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer (50ml)
- Ultrasun Face Moisturiser Cream SPF 50+ (25ml)
- Dr. PAWPAW SPF Lip Balm (8ml)
If you need inspiration on what to add to your basket to qualify for the offer, there are plenty of head-turning options over in the fashion department to pick up some show-stopping outfits for your summer wardrobe. The number one bestseller is the Pure Cotton Square Neck Midi Cami Shift Dress, which comes in classic white or eye-catching orange and will get you over the beauty bag threshold in one go with a price tag of £39.50.
Another favourite being snapped up by shoppers is the Textured Pleated Midi Skirt, which is also priced at £39.50 and comes in orange or trendy 'onyx' green - the shade of the season at M&S with plenty of matching tops available, from the Ribbed Crew Neck Knitted Top to the Relaxed Beach Shirt. Or you can't go wrong with a classic pair of £35 High Waisted Wide Leg Jeans, coming in at the number three spot on the bestseller list and available in four shades.
Don't forget that full price beauty products qualify for the £30 summer gift set offer too - and there's a way to get even more goodies for your money. You could combine the number one bestselling Clinique skincare product on the M&S website, the Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+, with the top-selling Clinique makeup product, the Clinique Sun-Kissed Face Gelee Complexion Multitasker, for a total price of £66 - and in addition to being able to buy the summer beauty bag for £30, you will also get a Clinique five-piece gift set worth £65 added to your basket completely free.
