Senior beauty writer Eve Rowlands has tested the Timeless Beauty Edit by Lady of the Manor from OK! Beauty Box and calls it one of the best edits she has tried. The box, created with influencer Hayley Karseras, known as the Lady of the Manor, contains 10 premium products, seven of which are full-sized, and is worth over £250. It costs £59.99.
What's Inside the Box
The edit features brands including Rodial, Gatineau, Nuxe, Beauty Pro, Pixi, Pai, and Pippa of London. One product alone, the Rodial Collagen Booster Drops, costs £85, which is £25 more than the entire box. The box also includes Gatineau's Collagene Expert™ Plump & Revive Eye Cream, typically £46, a Wet n Wild Color Icon 10 Pan Palette, Pippa of London Dark Queen Mascara, Nuxe Paris Very Rose Lip Balm, ISOCLEAN Makeup Brush Cleaner, and a Beauty Pro Retinol Renewing Facial Sheet Mask.
Rowlands' Verdict on Key Products
Rowlands praised the Rodial Collagen Booster Drops for immediate radiance, noting her skin felt firmer and looked more glowy. She also appreciated the Gatineau eye cream for refreshing and hydrating her under-eyes, reducing puffiness and brightening the area, though she saw little change in dark circles. The Wet n Wild palette earned praise for its richly pigmented, long-lasting powders, which held up for 8 hours without reapplication.
The Pippa of London mascara gave her lashes length and curl and didn't bleed during a gym session, but she found it hard to remove, requiring multiple washes. The Nuxe lip balm was a favourite for its nourishing, non-sticky formula with a light rose scent. The ISOCLEAN brush cleaner worked effectively but had a strong chemical scent she disliked. She saved the Beauty Pro sheet mask for a long-haul flight.
Overall Impression
Rowlands concluded that for £250 worth of good-quality skincare products she'll use regularly, the £59.99 box is well worth it, and any unwanted items would make great gifts.
