Next's £25 beauty box contains nearly £75 of makeup 'for free'

Next has launched a new beauty box worth over £92 featuring brands like Bare Minerals, Pixi, benefit, and more

Beauty fans looking to bag a bargain on luxury products while sticking to a budget should have a look at Next. The high street retailer has unveiled a new beauty edit, offering shoppers the chance to nab nearly £70-worth of items 'for free'.

The Glam and Go Make-Up Edit Beauty Box is priced at £25 but boasts a value of over £92 from some top name brands. Inside, you'll discover a variety of makeup products to help you craft the perfect 'barely there' makeup look or a full face of glam from brands like Bare Minerals, Pixi, Benefit, and more.

One of the priciest products in the box is the All Over Face Colour by Bare Minerals, retailing at £25. This loose bronzer promises to add rich, velvety colour into your complexion, giving a radiant, healthy-looking hue.

Another standout product is Benefit's They're Real Lengthening Mascara, valued at £27. This mascara, which promises 'bigger, bolder, sexier lashes', delivers longer and thicker lashes with a long-lasting formula that resists smudging or drying out.

Meanwhile at LookFantastic, The Beauty Icons Edit is valued at over £245 and retails for £65. The bundle features a handpicked selection of the most coveted, highest-rated must-haves adored by the LookFantastic community. From wishlist favourites to tried-and-tested classics from brands including Liz Earle, Sol de Janeiro, Murad and more, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Or at Boots, the Boots X Summer Love Island Beauty Box is £55 and is said to be worth over £290. This limited-edition box features viral favourites from brands like Sol de Janeiro, MILK Makeup, Kayali, and more. It contains 17 products with 13 being full size.

Here's everything found inside Next's Glam and Go makeup Edit Beauty Box:

  • Brushworks On The Move Makeup Minis Brush Set - worth £10
  • Bare Minerals All Over Face Colour 1.5g - worth £25
  • Pixi Glow-y Powder Blush - worth £14

Whilst the Glam and Go makeup Edit Beauty Box has yet to receive any online reviews, the Pixi Rose Glow-y Powder enjoys a five-star rating at Next and a 4.8 star rating on the Pixi website, where it retails for £14. One delighted customer commented: "Great colour with hint of glow. Perfect for evenings or dressy occasions."

Another added: "Gives a good rosey flush of colour so only a tiny bit is needed do not overload your blusher brush. Goes well with the rose lip balm.

"The pigment of this powder leaves a luminous glow on my skin," someone else noted. "I love it as an eyeshadow too. I'm a mum, so anything that has good ingredients, makes my skin look better through the day and multi-use, I'm in."

One customer, however, awarded the Pixi Rose Glow-y Powder a one-star review because it is "full of chunky glitter". Another person, whilst praising the product, also mentioned it's 'full of glitter', so it may be a product to present to a relative or mate if it's not something you'd fancy in a face product.

But another adored their latest Pixi purchase, stating: "I really like Pixi products, the Glow-y Powder is good product and the packaging is nice. I love how it looks on my skin, the powder is smooth and blends well. I'm using it as a blush or highlighter. I'm also using to highlight my eyes. The pigmented is good and I love the velvety and glow effect."
