The Sunday Times x Latest in Beauty Style Summer essentials collaboration box is one of my favourite releases from Latest in Beauty for a while. The team at Latest in Beauty absolutely knock it out the park with their beauty boxes, they are one of my favourite collaboration brands for these collections. Beauty boxes are on offer across numerous brands but these tick a lot of boxes for me.
From high end brands, a huge variety, makeup and skincare and great colours – these boxes are well worth their money especially with full size items and great savings. This box in particular is worth over £265 in total which makes this beauty edit an absolute winner.

This box is absolutely crammed full of full size products, most notably MAC, Eucerin, Sam Mcknight, Tan Luxe and Ted Baker. These are huge sizes and make for great value for this box alone. The box is sold at only £48 which is an absolute bargain to get some of these brands. The Eucerin serum is £25 RRP alone for example.
The products I’m most excited to try are the Garnier Micellar water, whilst I tried the original years ago, the new aloe water is a firm favourite of YouTuber, Fleur De Force, and she has said how much she loves using these. Whilst I prefer a deeper cleanse, I think micellar would make a great first cleanse to remove makeup or for a morning refresh. The MAC lipstick is also a lovely texture, it has a cream to powder style finish and feels quite different to your usual lip products but I actually quite like that and it’s a great way to try something I wouldn’t normally gravitate towards (the whole point of these boxes right!)
The Elemis sample is a great addition and generous size too as I have enjoyed using Elemis as of late and think their products are really making waves in the beauty scene. I follow Caroline Hirons Skincare Freaks Facebook page and a lot of people talk about this cream. You may have seen there’s a Ted Baker perfume included in this box which is a HUGE 100ml size. Whilst perfume is very much a personal thing, I actually love the scent of this. It’s got that sweet feminine fragrance that instantly takes me back to scents I would wear as a teenager. Whilst it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, it’s got a musky undertone which keeps it grown up whilst being part of their Sweet Treats collection. This is such a huge size and if it isn’t your kind of scent, this product alone would make a fantastic gift!
I am really impressed with the contents of this Latest in Beauty box, although you obviously see what you’re going to get when you buy these collections, I am always surprised by how generous the sizes are. The full size products are fantastic and there’s plenty of them. Many of the ‘smaller’ sizes are still great for giving products a great trial too.
Get yours today for only £48!
At only £48 this is an absolute bargain and I feel like it’s a must-have box for a treat this Summer. This looks like one that could sell out quickly so I’d buy now and treat yourself to some Summer beauty trends especially since freedom is here – why not enjoy lipstick and fragrance again!
