MINTD Box x SUNDAY RILEY

When the news broke that MINTD Box were collaborating with skincare geniuses Sunday Riley on not just 'a' box but an entire box, I was on tenterhooks to know what the contents would be and boy they did good. I was actually introduced to Sunday Riley firstly through Mintd Box and they have since become one of my favorite skincare brands. I like that it is a brand that you can easily incorporate into your existing skincare routine then just add more as you discover what works for you and your skin.
It is a luxury brand, therefore comes with a luxury price tag so this is a box that shall appeal to many as the saving is pretty incredible. Whether you are a new or existing Sunday Riley fan, this is a great way to stock up and get to know more from the brand.
This May, the Sunday Riley Box contains 5 Full/Super Deluxe sized best-selling products from the brand worth over *£200 for only *£90 (and *£70 for subscribers!). I must emphasize this is ver limited in stock, so act fast should you like what you see!

Mintd Box x Sunday Riley Collab

As previously mentioned, I love Sunday Riley and actively use their skincare in my current routine like the Luna Sleeping Oil, Ceramic Slip, CEO Serum for instance, but 4 of these products are all new to me which is why this box really excited me. So let me tell you more about what is inside ...

Mintd Box x Sunday Riley Collab

Sunday Riley Good Genes

1. *Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment 30ml (Full Size £85) (buy here!)A multi-tasking serum treatment that smooths, refines, clarifies and brightens whilst working to improve the skins thickness and elasticity. It uses a star ingredient of tiny glycolic acid molecules that sink deep into the skin to break apart clogged up pores to help minimise congestion and fine lines. Lactic Acid exfoliates further to help with hydration levels as well prickly pear extract to reduce irritation, whilst lemongrass shall brighten and clarify.

Why I haven't tried this product sooner I will never know because this is magical. I heard all the hype around this when Sunday Riley first launched and this seemed to be that 'it product' but I felt maybe it was 'just all hype' ... until I slapped it on my face that was. Even after a few uses, this skincare gem has made a visible difference to my skin. This treatment can be used every day to boost your complexion and moisture levels or applied as a mask ahead of a special occasion maybe. If you are highly sensitive or new to glycolic acids, I would suggest using it every other day to get your skin acclimatised, oh and use a high sunscreen during the day alongside it. The texture is rich and creamy which is unusual for a serum so only a small amount is needed. I did feel my skin tingle upon application but this soon filtered off after about a minute so bear that in mind before any worry, acids just tend to do that. It absorbed beautifully into my skin and left it feeling super soft with a noticeable, gorgeous healthy glow. I couldn't get over how soft my skin felt after each use of this serum and the effects show through in your other products that you follow on with.

Obviously I haven't used it long enough to give you my long term results but so I will keep you updated but this shall work wonders on skin that needs help with scarring, pigmentation, dryness, dullness, congestion etc because the immediate effects made everything look smoother with fine lines being less obvious and just gives skin back it's youthful glow back! I am so excited to see where this takes my skin from here on but I feel this has just become a new staple and proven to me that this is worth the spend. Should you want to try this (and I recommend you do,) buying through Mintd Box is definitely the way to get value for money here. Just thank me later!

Sunday Riley Auto Correct Eye Cream

2. Auto Correct Eye Cream 15ml (Full Size £60) (buy here!)This Eye Cream is designed to smooth, revive and brighten up the eye area whilst reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness to give the eyes a more lifted look. Containing caffeine, horse chestnut and brazilian ginseng root extract to smooth and brighten and watermelon extract, shea and cocoa butter too hydrate.

I love trying new eye creams as I think we all strive to find the one, bottle after bottle, as our eyes are under so much pressure day in, day out that we all need help. The texture is lovely being a very hydrating, yet lightweight cream that will suit many. It has this gorgeous luminosity to it that is subtle yet enough to instantly brighten up the whole eye area. It definitely helps to refresh the eyes and make you look more revived and by being nicely hydrating, it just helps even everything out nicely. I found concealer to sit over this one well as it helps your products not to settle into any lines. It does have a peculiar scent to it which surprised me but that doesn't linger so all is good! I will use this over a longer period and report back but first impressions are very good and it's well priced being as it is on the luxury end of the scale. Having this in full size makes it even more of a great saving.

Sunday Riley CEO Glow Oil

3. *NEW* C.E.O. Glow Oil 15ml (Super Deluxe Size £34)(buy here!)The newest member to the Sunday Riley range is this stunning C.E.O. Glow Vitamin C & Tumeric Oil that is designed to give your skin radiance with it's advanced Vitamin C (THD Ascorbate), Tumeric and Evening Primrose Oil which work in harmony together to brighten, hydrate and give you the Glow of your life.

After being enticed through IG, I was beyond excited to have this in my possession. I love facial oils and I just felt that this was going to be a new love, and it is. I am familiar with the C.E.O. range having used the serum version of this (reviewed here) so I knew that it was a formula that worked on my skin so having this in oil form is a dream. The main reason why I love this line from Sunday Riley is because unlike other Vitamin C products that treat the upper levels of skin, Sunday Riley created this oil-soluble Vitamin C that gets carried by Superfood oils to go deeper and give skin it's best possible glow. Plus it doesn't oxidise so you use it during the daytime! This deluxe 15ml size seems almost full-sized to me but I think it's the perfect amount as oils tend to expire quite quickly when opened and I have had to throw many away for not using them up in time so this is the ideal solution and I like that they sell it in two sizes also!

For me, this is a perfect oil when it comes to formula. It has a really nice pleasant scent, it's not too heavy so you can wear it day and night, is easily absorbed, hydrates instantly and leaves your skin looking amazing whether you are waking up from sleep or prepping your skin for the day ahead! I have used this both day and night because the luminosity this gives your skin is incredible. It works super well with makeup due to how well it absorbs and your skin just reaps the rewards. Whether you are a facial oil lover like me or you are yet to find one to convince you, this is one to try if a luminous glow is high on your skin list.

Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip

4. Ceramic Slip Cleanser 8ml (Super Deluxe Size £5.60)(buy here!)This is a light foaming facial cleanser containing a cocktail of vitamins, minerals and essential oils to help tone and balance normal to combination skin. Refined french clay lifts grime, absorbs impurities, tightens pores and gently exfoliates while vitamin C reduces the appearance of discolouration and stimulates collagen production for a plumper looking skin. Black Pepper, Sandalwood, Frankincense and Jasmine all help to combat sensitivity and promote circulation and cell growth for a smoother complexion.

This is actually my current morning cleanser (thanks to be being full sized in a previous Mintd Box) and has become one of my favourite morning cleansers of all time, especially for the summer months when my skin doesn't feel dry. Although this is only a very small deluxe size, it is enough to try for a week, maybe less, and also handy to keep for travel (like I will!). I think this is smaller due to it being full sized in a previous box.

The cleanser smells divineand I love how itlightly foamswhen you emulsify it with water (or it won't!) and leaves my skin feeling clean, fresh and very clear. I wouldn't recommend this cleanser for removing makeup but more for cleansing your skin to keep pores under control hence it makes a great morning cleanser ideally more suited to normal/combination/oily skins. I feel this really does lift dirt and oil from my skin and keeps it looking clear especially at 'those times of the month' when it can go a little crazy and this really helped massively to keep it looking blemish free.

Sunday Riley Tidal Moisturiser

5. Tidal Water Cream 15g (Super Deluxe Size £20)(buy here!)This thirst quenching moisturiser is designed to hydrate all skins using two weights of hyaluronic acid, alongside papaya enzymes to gentle resurface and rid the skin of dead skin cells and white bird of paradise extracts to brighten and help combat hyperpigmentation all at the same time. Being as light as water, this cream optimises hydration levels to give your skin a smoother, firmer and more plumped up appearance.

Again, this is a product that IG made me add to my wish list because I love lightweight moisturisers for the summer months as it calls for hydration and lighter formulas and being a featherweight texture, it's an ideal option. Surely so it hasn't disappointed me in the slightest with it's lovely soft scent and water like feel, resulting in a very cooling, super refreshing, hydrated finish on the skin. A perfect day cream for oily/combination skins who dislike heavy textures yet great for dry/dehydrated skins at the same time. Depending on how dry your skin is, you could even use this as a serum should you need more hydration. The dinky sized pot is a tad smaller than I imagined yet enough to let you try for a week or so, so I feel you'll end up wanting a bigger pot should you like it straight away (but keep this one for decanting when you travel!).

Mintd Box x Sunday Riley Collab

I know that this box will sell out way before the month end so act wisely; the savings here are far too good to miss out on so if you haven't already 'added this to bag' then you may just want to ... fast.Some may be disappointed by the two smaller sizes featured in this box but technically you are getting three full sizes (including the CEO oil) from Sunday Riley who are a high end skincare brand so they are more for discovery purposes and you still save half of what you are paying. This is definitely ideal for those who may want to stock up on Good Genes and try the New Glow Oil!

If you are looking at getting into Sunday Riley skincare then I hope this helps to give you some pointers on where to start. It really has been a pleasure to review this box and a collaboration that has also introduced me to some new skincare favourites.
