Boots has relaunched its popular Showstopper Beauty Box for 2026, giving shoppers the chance to buy a bundle worth £445.48 for £90, a saving of 80% on the contents.
The limited-edition box contains 24 beauty products, including 17 full-sized items and seven travel-friendly minis, from brands such as Estée Lauder, Clinique, Benefit and Sol de Janeiro. Customers can use it to try new formulas or restock favourites at a reduced price.

Standout items include Clinique's full-size Moisture Surge Active Glow Serum, which usually costs £45 on its own but can effectively be picked up for £3.75 through the bundle. Other brands featured include Fenty Beauty, P. Louise, Rituals, Nuxe, Benefit, Iconic London, Ole Henriksen, Philip Kingsley, BYOMA, Kylie Cosmetics, Dr. Melaxin, Jean Paul Gaultier, Living Proof, GHD, Illiyoon, Mediheal and Aveeno.
The box also includes either an Innisfree Cherry Blossom Cream or an Innisfree Green Tea Ceramide Cream, with customers receiving one of the two.

Several retailers are offering similar Christmas beauty boxes. The Christmas Beauty Gift Edit, worth over £275, is available for £59.99, while Very's Festive Beauty Box, worth over £360, retails at £63 and contains 20 products from brands including Elemis, Beauty Works, Maybelline and Nip + Fab.
Customer reviews
The Boots Showstopper Beauty Box launched on November 11, so it has not yet received feedback on the retailer's website, but the products inside have existing reviews. One fan of the Clinique Moisture Surge Active Glow Serum said: "This serum gives my skin the most fabulous, dewy glow. My skin has never looked better."
Another customer said: "This is by far the best serum I've used to get glowy skin. It works amazing and I noticed a difference overnight!" A third added: "I bought the full size and will definitely buy it again; it's part of my daily routine now. I'm in my late 50s, and it has made such a difference to my skin."
One shopper gave the Clinique product a lower rating due to a lack of instructions, explaining: "Received the new serum. No instructions on how to use it on any packaging or inside the box, so I had to just use as I thought."
