When it comes to putting together a good beauty box, no one does it quite like Boots – giving you value for money, a seasonal selection of products and premium picks to treat yourself to. The best beauty boxes allow you to explore new products, get luxury items for a fraction of the price and treat yourself or a loved one without breaking the bank. This Easter season, Boots have come up with a beauty deal as sweet as your favourite chocolate eggs, the Boots Easter Luxury Beauty Box!
My first impression when I saw the Boots Easter Luxury Beauty Box was that the packaging seemed fitting for the season. The egg-shaped sleeve pulls off to reveal the turquoise-coloured case with golden and purple motifs, making it a cheerful looking package.

Boots Easter Luxury Beauty Box review
The box includes a good variety of products from different price ranges and categories such as makeup, skincare, hair care, beauty tools and bath and body products. There are several seasonally relevant products as well which makes it quite handy and a well-timed beauty bargain you don’t want to miss.
The skincare range includes gems like the Grown Alchemist Hydra-Restore Day Cream which is a premium moisturiser enriched with soothing aloe vera, Vitamin E, glycerin, camelia and rosehip oil to leave your skin feeling soft and smooth. I found that it is quite fast-absorbing and non-greasy making it a good day cream. You also get the Estee Lauder Revitalising Supreme + Youth Power Crème designed to make your skin look firmer, plumper and more lifted. Other products include the viral Laneige mini Lip Sleeping Mask in the scent Berry which is a personal favourite that I have been using for several months now and absolutely love as well as the Dr.Jart+ Ceramidin™ Lip Balm.
You also get the Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF, which is a colourless, scentless formula that also acts as a makeup primer. Makeup-wise my top picks from the box would be the Spectrum All About The Brush A05 "All in One Cheek" Brush which is a product I have been eyeing as it glides on super smooth and ensures even application of blushes, highlighter and bronzers, the Bareminerals Gen Nude Blonzer in the shade ‘Kiss of Rose’ which is another summery product and the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray which works wonders to hold your makeup in place for hours!
Other products worth highlighting is the full-size First Aid Beauty After-Shower Nourishing Body Oil which I found leaves your skin feeling super soft and hydrated, the Sol De Janeiro Bom Dia Bright™ Clarifying AHA BHA Body Wash which smells divine and the Philip Kingsley Bond Builder Split End Remedy which is said to be great at repairing dull, life-less hair.
Verdict: Is the Boots Easter Luxury Beauty Box worth it?
As mentioned, the Boots Easter Luxury Beauty Box offers good variety in terms of different types of products and price ranges. I also like the fact that they have included several products like sunscreen, warm bronzers and fruity body washes in the spirit of warmer days approaching. These are products you might consider buying ahead of summer anyway. The number of full-size products are less compared to their previous boxes, but the selection of travel sized products would come in handy as travel season is upon us and you don’t have to sacrifice on quality skincare or haircare while you are vacationing. It also gives you very good value for money with a premium selection of products priced at £52. Therefore, according to me the Boots Easter Luxury Beauty Box is definitely a seasonal hit, that also helps you save £181.45 while upgrading your beauty routine with some of the best skincare, haircare and makeup products.
