Holiday confession: I am a serial overpacker. Forget shoes and swimsuits, for me, it's toiletries that are the problem. I find it hard to edit my go-to products and the result is usually a bursting - and heavy - washbag. Hence why the instantly caught my eye. It's filled with seven travel-sized products from some of my favourite brands, including Laneige, MAC, Sol de Janeiro, and Bobbi Brown.
Each one is perfectly sized for your suitcase, hand luggage or beach bag, making it a total no-brainer for summer getaways. Because the last thing you want is having to throw away a beloved beauty product because it's over the 100ml hand luggage limit that's still in place at many airports.
The value here is impressive. For just £32, you're getting seven premium skincare and makeup minis worth £124.50 from big-name brands like MAC, Bobbi Brown, Rituals, Laneige, Floral Street and more. That breaks down to under £4.60 per product, which is kind of amazing when you realise the for 50ml.
- Milk - Lip + Cheek In The Shade Werk - FULL SIZE (6 g)
- MAC - Stack Elevated Mascara Mini - 8 ml
- Bobbi Brown - Vitamin Enriched Face Base - 15 ml
- Laneige - Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturiser - 20ml
- Floral Street - Sunflower Pop EDP - 10ml
- Sol De Janiero - Cheirosa 62 - 30ml
- Rituals - The Ritual Of Karma Shimmering Body Oil - 30ml
Add in the Milk Makeup Lip + Cheek Stick (worth £22) and Floral Street's gorgeous Sunflower Pop mini fragrance (usually £29 on its own), and you're already way ahead before you've even unpacked the rest.
I'd buy this bag for the alone! It's usually £19.50 for 20ml, so as part of the bag, you're getting it for a quarter of the usual price. In my experience, this cream is really hydrating-it almost feels like giving my skin a drink. I particularly like the texture, as it feels like a lightweight gel rather than a heavy, rich cream.
I'm already a fan of the , a really quick multitasking product. The creamy, tinted product is a blush and a lip colour in one. I find it gives my skin a natural flush and looks lovely on my lips, too, but I wish it lasted a bit longer without needing a top-up. It's usually priced at £22, so it's still a brilliant addition.
Next up, there's a mini version of , which claims to give "an instant lash lift". I don't have first-hand experience with this product, but I do adore a mini mascara (it looks so cute, doesn't it?). It's so handy to keep in your bag if you're going straight out after the beach. A full-size .
There's also a travel-sized version of the (a full-size is worth £54). I'd use Bobbi Brown's Face Base as a moisturiser on its own if I were packing for a holiday-it's a super hydrating cream that allows your makeup to stay put, even in warm conditions. The full-sized version is housed in a glass tub, so the 15ml makes it less bulky and perfect for popping into your cosmetics bag while on the go.
There are also two mini scents: a perfume and a body spray. They allow you to experience something fresh and citrusy (the , worth £22) and then a warmer, sugary smell (the worth £24 full-size).
The final item in the bag is perfect for topping up your summer glow. The gives limbs a lovely shimmer, but be warned, in my experience, it's best not to use it if you've faked tanned - you'll go streaky!
I always look for beauty boxes because they're packed with bestsellers at prices that seem too good to be true. The Boots Get Holiday Ready Mini bag is a brilliant buy for the price.
Shoppers agree, with customers having already shared their experience in the reviews. One shopper said: "This little bag is all you need on hols, its great, all fantastic products, surprised it's not sold out!"
Another added: "This is fantastic, such a bargain and the products are all amazing!" So far, there aren't any negative reviews. Though if you're looking for full-size products, then this might not be the bag for you. The bag is and is only around while stocks last.
