Beauty fiends, listen up. It's almost Christmas, so what better time to make a list of the best beauty boxes out there. Aside from the (obviously) brilliant Grazia Beauty Club Box, there's another brand consistently delivering all sorts of beauty excellence. Boots! Hot off the launch of the 'Make Room For Beauty Box' comes, in our opinion, an even better offering. Here's everything you need to know about the new Boots Best of Beauty Showstopper Box. And spoiler alert - it's not just a showstopper by name...

When does the Boots Best of Beauty Showstopper Box launch?

It's officially here as of the 13th of November Run, don't walk, as this one will sell out swiftly.

How much is the Boots Best of Beauty Showstopper Box?

The Boots Best of Beauty Showstopper Box costs £88 but is valued at over £450, making it better than a considerable amount of beauty advent calendars on the market. Need further swaying? The Huda Beauty eyeshadow palette is worth a whopping £62 on its own. Just look at those beautifully wearable shades...

Is the Boots Best of Beauty Showstopper Box worth it?

Our verdict:

Rachael Martin, beauty editor:

‘Yes, yes, and yes again. On the Grazia beauty desk we see our fair share of beauty boxes and it's safe to say that not all are made equal. A big claim, but this is possibly the best edit of products and the best value for money I've ever seen. A reminder of the numbers - the box comes in at £88 for £450 worth products. There's 28 in total, and 17 are full-sized - now that's impressive. There's big names and hero products in there too - think a full sized Elemis Cleansing Balm, a full sized Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream and a full sized Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser Starter Kit. These are all staples in my beauty cabinet, so I'm thrilled to be getting my hands on them for such a competitive price. While I'm keeping the lot for myself (don't judge) I do think the contents of the box could be split up into stocking fillers, too. A beauty bargain, and all in time for Christmas!'
