This festive beauty box would make a brilliant Christmas present if you can bear to part with it.
I always think beauty gifts are a lovely idea at Christmas, especially when they include a mix of brands and products you might not necessarily buy for yourself. But having just received the Very Festive Beauty Box £75 (worth £360), I’ve come to the conclusion that this is one present I’d find very difficult to give away.
It’s packed with 20 beauty favourites spanning skincare, make-up, haircare, fragrances and beauty tools. And with names including Benefit, Dyson and Elemis in the mix, I can already see why it would make such a tempting gift. My advice? Buy two if your budget allows one to wrap up for someone special and another to keep for yourself.
The first thing that caught my attention was just how much is included. Rather than focusing on one type of product, the Very Festive Beauty Box brings together a whole collection of beauty treats, from everyday essentials to more luxurious additions. There are full-size products, travel-friendly options and luxury minis, so it feels like the sort of box you could spend weeks working your way through.
One of my favourite things about the Very Festive Beauty Box is the mix of well-known brands inside. Skincare standouts include the Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Mousse, Caudalie Premier Cru The Eye Cream and ESPA Clean & Green Detox Mask, perfect for anyone who loves a little at-home pampering. Plus make-up treats from Benefit and Maybelline.
The box doesn't stop at skincare and make-up, either. You'll also find the Dyson Chitosan Post Style Serum, Beauty Works 10-in-1 Miracle Spray and Wella Ultimate Colour Shine Spray, plus the Sensse LED Skin Lift beauty device for an extra-special addition. There are fragrances from Michael Kors and Moncler, making this a brilliant all-round treat for any beauty lover.
The Very Festive Beauty Box certainly has plenty to explore. Of course, the actual value you'll get from it depends on which products you'd use and enjoy, but the mix of well-known names and different beauty categories makes it an interesting option for Christmas shopping.
But here's my dilemma: after seeing everything included, I'm not sure I'd want to hand the whole thing over without keeping one for myself. If you're shopping for someone else this Christmas and can stretch your budget, buying two could be the answer one to put under the tree and one to enjoy yourself. After all, with 20 beauty treats from brands including Benefit, Dyson and Elemis, this is the kind of gift that might be just as exciting to open as it is to give.
The Very Festive Beauty Box is available to buy from Very. If you're looking for a Christmas present that feels generous, varied and a little bit indulgent, it's certainly one to consider just don't be surprised if you end up adding a second to your basket.
