‘This is one of the best value edits I have had from Cult Beauty’
Beauty lovers looking to overhaul their skincare routine on a budget are in luck, as one of Medik8’s bestselling exfoliating toners has dropped in price thanks to a new limited-edition beauty box. The Cult Beauty The Ultimate Holiday Edit (worth over £270) has been reduced to £49 from £70 and the eight products inside are now £6.12 each.
Inside the kit, there is a full-size Medik8 Press and Glow Tonic (200ml worth £32) that is said to offer gentle daily exfoliation using PHAs and aloe vera to remove dead skin cells and support a smoother-looking complexion. Alongside it is the MZ Skin Anti-Pollution Hydrating Face Mask which provides a cooling layer of hydration with a vitamin C infused hydrogel that helps reduce the appearance of dullness.
For targeted care, the full-size Kate Somerville SuperCell Rejuvenation Serum (30ml, worth £84) uses peptides to support skin firmness and elasticity. The beauty bundle also includes a Cult Beauty Satin Eye Mask which is designed to block out light and protect lashes during sleep.
Makeup essentials in the collection include the Sweed Air Blush Cream in ‘Lucky’ and the Benefit 24 Hour Brow Setter Mini, a clear gel that keeps brow hairs in place with flexible, flake-free hold. For lips, the Laneige Lip Glowy Balm in ‘Blueberry’ adds moisture with shea and murumuru butters while giving a light, glossy tint.
To finish, the Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil brings brightening and light hydration, and the Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Dew Shield SPF 30 provides lightweight UV protection with a dewy finish. If this isn’t the one for everyone, there is also the Stylpro Sustainable Beauty Gift Set for £16 on LookFantastic.

Inside the kit, there is a Medik8 Press and Glow Tonic that is said to offer gentle daily exfoliation using PHAs and aloe vera to remove dead skin cells and support a smoother-looking complexion.
This comes with a Bamboo Face Cloth, Bath Wash Mitt, Bath Sponge, 4 Bamboo Makeup Remover Pads and a Laundry Bag to finish everything off. Debenhams also have the Clarins Nutri Lumiere Loyalty Set priced at £81.60 down from £102 for those who want to spend a little bit extra.
In this set there are both Lumiere Day and Night Creams as well as the Wonder Volume Mascara which ‘enhances lashes and intensifies eyes.’ However, the Cult Beauty Holiday Edit which has been purchased over 82 times in the last 48 hours, is selling fast and shoppers have rated it high on the website.
One happy customer wrote: “Loved this edit from Cult Beauty – the box is lovely and I have made use of this by putting all my favourite items in here. This is one of the best value edits I have had from Cult Beauty especially as it included the Medik8 toner which gives lovely results. Loads of new brands including Sweed which is a gorgeous colour and texture blusher.”
Another said: “This is a great edit with some products that I haven’t tried before, such as the Kate Somerville serum and the Sweed blush. It also has some of my favourites like the Benefit brow gel, Medik8 tonic, and Laneige lip balm. The only filler item is the sleep mask, which I’m not interested in, so I’ll pass it on to someone else. Great set and good value.”
A third person wrote: “The value of the box is great, I always wanted to try the Medik8 tonic and this is a great way. I have also bought the box also for the Kate Somerville serum, so it is really worth it.”
However, a handful of others removed a star and said: “Love the selection included with a combination of skincare and makeup. Price is higher compared to previous edit releases but appreciate the full sized inclusions.”
Another wrote: “A good edit, but the large drawers made it feel quite sparse rather than luxurious.”
