14 Make-Up And Skincare Kits Every Beauty Addict Should Snap Up

MAC didn’t announce this little box but dropped it suddenly on their website one evening two weeks ago. They sold out in hours. You can only find them on the Selfridges website but be quick. All the boxes come with a lipstick, eyeshadow, mascara (sometimes two), a liquid or pencil eye liner and lipstick. What makes this box even better is that they are all only £35 and the lipstick is full sized.
