Collection Cosmetics £10 Beauty Box review

It’s not every day you get offered a stonking £60-plus worth of makeup for a mere tenner. But, if you’re quick, that’s exactly what you will get - if you snap up a limited edition Collection Cosmetics £10 Beauty Box. Believe me, the hype around this deal is real.

I missed out when Collection first advertised this bundle. The box, unsurprisingly, sold out in just a few days. But, as luck would have it, a further 1,000 boxes were put up on the brand’s website just as I was browsing.

And I don’t think it will be the last time that Collection puts together a Beauty Box - it has had boxes for the bundles especially made. They pack a punch too, in the realms of cuteness.

Keep reading to find out what I got for my tenner. You’ll be as amazed as I was.

The Excitement of the Collection Cosmetics £10 Beauty Box

I’ve bought countless beauty boxes (including mystery ones) over the years. To say they have been hit and miss would be an understatement. I’ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve opened a box and been confronted with way-out neon glitters, dried up mascaras, and stuff that’s just so off-trend you wouldn’t even be tempted to hang on to them in the hope of fashion swinging back in their favour.

While some brands may use bundles and special purchase boxes to offload old stock, the Collection Cosmetics £10 Beauty Box is different. It comes crammed with 15 full-size products - all still available to buy on the brand’s website and utterly wearable. This makes such an amazing change. Not only that, I also received free sample foundations (if you haven’t tried Collection’s complexion products, you’re really missing out). Better still, they asked my shade when I ordered.

A Full Face of Makeup Awaits

My makeup was beautifully wrapped in tissue paper, sealed with a Collection Cosmetics sticker. Another big plus was that my Beauty Box was delivered really quickly - within three days.

So, what did I get?

• IncrediBROW® Extra Hold Brow Glue in Brunette - £4.99

• IncrediBROW® Extra Hold Brow Glue in Blonde - £4.99

• IncrediBROW® Micro Brow Pencil with spoolie - £3.99

• Gloss Me Up Lip Gloss in Lychee - £2.99

• MEGA Lip Oil in clear - £4.99

• MEGA Lip oil in Loyal - £4.99

The total value of my box was £67.85, going by current website prices for individual items.

I think that’s an incredible deal. You’re getting virtually a full face of makeup for less than the cost of a drugstore mascara. It makes a change from parting with £30 for four products or less.

What I'm Excited to Try

What am I excited to try? I can’t wait to use the brow products. The glue is tinted, and I’ve got not one but two shades to try out. The micro brow pencil looks right up my street. I’m also loving the nude mattes in the eyeshadow palette (I can see the powder highlighter being used with those). The highlighter stick I just know I’m going to reach for because I struggle with cheek placement every time I use a powder format.

The lip products will definitely get used, along with the mascara and Filter Finish Contour Wand, which I have previously purchased.

The only two items that I may need persuading to try are the liquid eyeliners. My hands aren’t that steady.

A Bargain Like No Other

In a world that thrives on ‘bargains’ that, let’s face it, often aren’t, this one packs more than a punch. It delivers 15 full-size products and, if you add up the cost of just two of the more expensive items, you’re getting the other 13 for free. Now that’s a real bargain.

Collection is an underrated brand that delivers value and quality. If you haven’t discovered it yet, or fancy massively expanding your makeup for just £10, there’ll never be a better time.
