Skincare fans can get their hands on more than £100 worth of celeb-approved sensitive skin-friendly products for less than half the price at Boots this weekend. The retailer has been renowned for their money-saving beauty boxes recently, and has teamed up with clean skincare brand REN for a limited edition haul of their bestsellers.
The REN x Boots Limited Edition Beauty Box costs £45 to buy, but is worth approximately £102, filled with four of the skincare favourite’s most popular products. One of them, the Evercalm Barrier Support Elixir 30ml, is worth the same price as the box itself, effectively making the other three items free.
Saving £55 compared to buying the items individually, the box also contains REN’s Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Gel, Glow Daily Vitamin C Gel Cream and Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic. The latter is a firm favourite with celebrities and has been a staple in the skincare cupboards of Manchester’s Molly Mae Hague, as well as Vogue Williams.

In February this year, Molly told her Instagram followers that it was “One product that I always reach for to add that glow back into my skin,” adding that it’s ‘amazing for unclogging pores’. Meanwhile, Vogue described it as ‘one of the products I absolutely adore’.
The AHA and BHA toner is a gentle exfoliating toner that helps remove dead skin cells and excess sebum to reveal brighter, more even and smoother skin. Powerful, yet gentle enough for daily use, the toner ‘visibly tightens pores’ while minimising the appearance of fine lines and pigmentation to leave skin glowing – so it’s no wonder that one bottle sells every minute.
The formula has racked up more than 1,000 five star reviews on the Boots website, being praised for its glow-giving results – some even described it as a ‘game changer’. One wrote: “This is my second bottle; noticeably smoother skin, old blemish scars disappear, definitely fewer blocked pores and I look more radiant!”
Another added: “Game changer for my skincare routine, I was experiencing spot prone skin. The products I used to get rid of the spots left the skin dry. Since using this tonic the dry skin has gone, instead it feels soft and has a lovely subtle glow to it.”
A third penned: “The best toners I’ve tried. Gives a healthy glow every morning – my skin feels super clean and healthy and complexion has improved.” But some have noticed that the formula is a little ‘sticky’ adding: “It leaves a sticky residue and it seems to reject moisturisers after which is annoying even the REN eyecream.”
The Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic 100ml would usually set shoppers back £16, while the Evercalm Barrier Support Elixir 30ml is typically £45. The Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Gel 150ml is worth around £25, while the deluxe sample version of the brand’s Glow Daily Vitamin C Gel Cream 15ml is worth around £15.
Boots has been prolific in their beauty box launches, with something for everyone looking to stock up on their beauty stash, from the £45 New and Trending box worth £145, to the Little Luxuries Easter Egg, which you can currently get for £40 with the code EASTER5.
If skincare is more your thing, elsewhere, LookFantastic has launched a Dermatological Skincare edit which is also 75 per cent off. The eight-piece haul costs £50 but contains more than £200 worth of skincare staples, including a pharmacist-loved moisturiser, and blemish corrector from brands like Medik8, Avène and Peter Thomas Roth. But whether you’ve always wanted to try out REN, or are already a fan, this REN x Boots limited edition box is a great way to discover their sensitive range for less.
