Birchbox is back with another limited edition beauty box and the Jet Set Beauty collection is one that'll keep the holiday going that little bit longer. The set, launching 18th June features a handful of beauty must-haves to see you through from New York to St. Tropez, think hydrating face masks to beat the jet lag and beautiful facial sunscreens to protect your skin.
They've thought of everything and not just that, all the products come in a see through travel friendly rose gold bag which will have you flying through security this summer.
The Jet Set Beauty box (£28.00) is the no-fuss beauty kit for all travellers and it's guaranteed to help some of that pre-holiday stress when trying to remember what minis you need to take. The travel-friendly bag holds a special edit of ten key beauty products including four full-size and six deluxe minis as well as a book of travel tips which has been specially curated by Lonely Planet.
The book of travel tips features handy snippets such as a pre-departure checklist, the ultimate budgeting tips and an insight into flight upgrades. It's a great little guide on things you may not have thought about and includes a special discount on Lonely Planet books.
When it comes to beauty, Birchbox definitely know a thing or two and they've packed the travel big with some fab brands! First up is Rituals Sun Protection Face Cream which is lightweight, water resistant and protects against UVA and UVB rays. The SPF 30 cream is a powerful blend of antioxidants including vitamin e and organic white tea so it's probably the fanciest sun cream you'll ever use and it's one of the full size items.
Next up you'll find Lancaster's Tan Maximizer Soothing Moisturiser Repairing After Sun, phew that's a mouthful! This is loved by so many to help keep that sun kissed glow and with its super hydrating formula it helps keep peeling at bay too.
Oh K! are one of my favourites for sheet masks so I was pleased to see the Anti Jet Lag Sheet Mask inside. We all know plane air can seriously dry out our skin so this mask helps hydrate and restore skin back to its best again.
How cute is the packaging too?!
Biore Baking Soda Cleansing Micellar Water is a multitasking solution to help wipe the day away. Just apply with a reusable cotton pad then wipe the grime away. It cuts the time if you're running from beach to bar, just remember to have a good cleanse that night with something creamy.
Another hydrating wonder product is the GlamGlow ThirstyMud Hydrating Mask Treatment. Birchbox describe this as a refreshing glass of water for your skin as it moisturises, restores, replenishes and calms your complexion. I'm a GlamGlow newbie so I can't wait to give this a try!
Giving your skin a deep clean when travelling is the BEST feeling aside from a chilled cocktail in Cafe Mambo. Estee Lauder's Perfectly Clean Multi Action Foam Cleanser & Purifying Mask is the product to have in your hand luggage. The creamy cleanser removes makeup without leaving skin tight and the purifying foam just makes skin feel so clean. I have this in full size and love it.
The final piece of skin loving goodness is by Sarah Chapman. The Skin Insurance SPF 30 is a super light skin perfecting tint that provides protection from UVA and UVB rays as well as hydrating skin with its anti-aging formula. It's a fab little product to give you a beautiful natural glow.
Flying can be stressful so the inclusion of This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray will be a god send to many. Make that flight a little easier with a few spritz of this as it's infused with 100% pure essential oils including lavender, chamomile, vetivert and patchouli. I'm never without this and even have the child's version for Joshua.
Dr Paw Paw's Tinted Peach Pink Balm is the ONE! Fermented pawpaw is the go to for a multitasking balm that not only keeps lips looking soft and hydrated but it also works well for cuticles, split ends and as a pop of colour of cheeks. I always have a tube of this handy and it would 100% be one of my travel essentials.
The VERY last item inside the Jet Set Beauty collection is Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo. I'm relatively new to this brand having only used one of their products before so I can't wait to try this, I'm a big dry shampoo fan. This has a fast acting powder which soaks up oil, sweat and odour leaving hair looking and smelling cleaner. What's a holiday without some dry shampoo eh?
That is everything inside the Birchbox Jet Set beauty collection, so what do you think?
