K-beauty fans can get their hands on £58 worth of Korean skincare for less than £15 thanks to a beauty box deal stack at John Lewis. The John Lewis K-beauty Box costs £25 and is worth £58, starring products designed to hydrate and soothe the skin.
Perfectly timed for Christmas gifting, the set contains five products which can be gifted as one complete set, or divided into stocking fillers. It includes a mix of bestselling Korean brands, including Dr.Jart+, SKIN1004 and medicube, offering a way to tap into the glass-skin trend without paying full price for formulas.
Cashback Offer Brings Price Down
New TopCashback members can take advantage of a £15 cashback offer when they sign up via this link and spend at least £15. Using this alongside the beauty box deal, the K-beauty edit works out at £14.29 after cashback, which includes a £4.50 delivery fee. For existing TopCashback members, the set works out at £29.29 with delivery.
Inside, there’s a Purito Wonder Releaf Centella Serum Unscented, 60ml, which is worth £20 on its own. Ideal for anyone with sensitive or easily irritated skin, this full-size serum contains centella asiatica, panthenol and niacinamide. It's designed to hydrate, soothe redness and help support the skin barrier, without added fragrance.
Customer Reviews on the Serum
Over at Boots and LookFantastic, the calming serum has earned a number of five star reviews, with one commenting: “Loving this serum now that the seasons are changing and my skin is drier than normal! Also appreciate that it's unscented.”
Another added: “This serum feels gentle and soothing, and helps my skin look calmer and more balanced. It absorbs easily and provides a lovely boost of hydration without feeling heavy. The fragrance-free formula is ideal for sensitive skin and layers really well with other products.”
Not everyone has been enamored with the serum, however, with one commenting: “Was expecting more from this as the moisturiser is pretty good but after a few weeks of using it, I can’t see or feel any difference in my skin.” Though a fourth said: “This serum is light weight, hydrating, and leaves your skin super glowy. No irritation, simply just leaves the skin plump and glass like.”
What Else Is in the Box
Alongside the Purito formula, there’s also an Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam, 25ml, which is best for those who struggle with excess oil or congested pores, working to remove impurities and gently exfoliate the skin. Shoppers can also try the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Asiatica 100 Ampoule Serum, 30ml, however, this also focuses on calming the appearance of redness, which may feel like it doubles up somewhat.
There are also two different face masks - the Dr.Jart+ Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask and medicube PDRN Pink Collagen Gel Mask. The former is a full-size sheet mask designed to deliver an intense hit of moisture while helping support the skin's natural barrier, while the medicube option features PDRN - a particularly buzzy ingredient in Korean beauty that works to leave skin looking smoother, plumper and more radiant.
Other K-Beauty Deals Available
Over at Boots, this K+J Beauty Skin Edit brings together Korean and Japanese skincare heroes in a nine-piece routine centred on hydration, barrier protection and luminosity.

The John Lewis K-beauty Box is priced at £25, with a value of £58, but TopCashback’s sign-up offer gives new members £15 cashback when they join and spend at least £15. That said, it's worth remembering that cashback isn't an instant discount at checkout and it may take time to track and become payable. Here's how to take advantage: sign up to TopCashback using this link, search for John Lewis and click ‘get cashback now’, purchase the K-beauty box for £25, and the cashback will track to the TopCashback 'Earnings page' within seven days of the buyer's purchase.
