Which other brands may release beauty eggs in 2024?
With Easter still being a little over a month away, there’s still time for retailers to announce their seasonal gift sets. However, since they often sell out well in advance, we’d recommend bagging the one you want sooner rather than later, or face disappointment when it’s no longer available to buy.
Last year, there were a , and we could potentially see them release something for 2024, too.
Last year, health and beauty retailer revealed their Little Luxuries beauty egg, which contained almost £200 worth of products for £55. The high street chain has been prolific in their beauty box launches over the past 12 months, regularly selling them out in a matter of days, so we’ll be surprised if they don’t have one up their sleeves for March.
Boots launched the Little Luxuries Easter Egg Bundle for just £55 (Boots)Boots shoppers were also able to get their hands on a free Easter egg from MAC Cosmetics last year. Worth around £45, the limited edition gift was a gift-with-purchase when you spent £60 on MAC at Boots, which is a deal we’d love to see return.
And lastly, we also saw a wellness egg from , packed with hair gummies, collagen shots and more for £19.99, though it’s not been confirmed whether they’ll launch one in 2024.
Which is the best beauty egg for 2024?
Well that all very much depends on personal preference. If you’re someone who adores an everything bath and queues up in the shopping centre on Boxing Day for their half-price sale, then is going to be an obvious choice, while those who enjoy boujee bathing might opt for or .
For us, though, we love a money-saving choice, and it’s and Glossybox offering the biggest value for money Easter options this year, with the latter worth four times the price you pay. Meanwhile, saves the largest amount of money, with customers saving £146 on the RRP, compared to £127 on Glossybox - now that has to be better than chocolate.
Both of them sold out within weeks of launching last year, and we can expect the same to happen this year. Shop the or snap up the £40 Glossybox egg here.
