The First Class Edit includes full-size and deluxe-size products from top-tier brands including Augustinus Bader, Sunday Riley, Elemis and Supergoop

Beauty enthusiasts are flocking to Cult Beauty to get their hands on the retailer’s latest budget-friendly skincare collection that gets shoppers more than £165 worth of free premium products. The First Class Edit, crafted for travellers, holiday-goers and beyond, is available for £45 but boasts a value exceeding £210.

This limited-edition collection showcases luxury skincare essentials from some of the sector’s most coveted names, including Medik8, Augustinus Bader, Sunday Riley, Elemis and Supergoop. Created with travel at its heart, the edit contains products aimed at keeping skin moisturised, protected and radiant, particularly during the warmer months.

The standout item must be the full-size Medik8 Liquid Peptides serum. With a typical retail price of approximately £59 alone, it already exceeds the total cost of the entire collection.

This cult-favourite formula features 10 distinct peptides formulated to help diminish fine lines, enhance skin suppleness and amplify moisture levels. It ranks amongst Medik8’s bestselling offerings and presents an ideal chance for those who’ve been intrigued by the brand to sample it without investing in the complete price tag.

Alongside Medik8, the collection features several high-end skincare brands that are seldom found together in a single set. The deluxe-size Sunday Riley C.E.O Brightening Serum is brimming with vitamin C to help enhance radiance and combat dullness, while Augustinus Bader’s The Cream offers customers the opportunity to sample the Victoria Beckham-approved brand without forking out more than £70 for a full-size product.

Worth £210, but yours for just £45, save over 75% on The First Class Edit — luxury skincare built for takeoff, landing and everything in between.

There’s also a full-size 1 11SKIN Black Diamond Face Mask, which is perfect for a pre-occasion skin lift or post-flight pampering treat. Additionally, Supergoop’s Glowscreen SPF 30 works as both sun defence and a luminous makeup base, making it a brilliant addition to summer beauty regimes, reports the Liverpool Echo.

The set is completed with Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Pads, which offer a practical way to exfoliate and refine skin while on the move, while Lanolips’ Raspberry Shortcake 101 Ointment Multi-Balm delivers nourishing moisture for lips and dry areas when you’re out and about.

While the value is undoubtedly remarkable, with each product costing £6.43, there are a few points worth bearing in mind. The collection is predominantly skincare-led, so anyone expecting makeup, perfume or haircare items may find the range somewhat narrow. Meanwhile, certain products – notably Augustinus Bader and 111SKIN – are recognised for their luxury pricing, which could become costly to replace once the travel sizes are finished.

Meanwhile, Marks and Spencer is giving customers an impressive 81% discount with its Summer Beauty Bag. At £40, the reusable cosmetics case is filled with 11 makeup, skincare, hair and body products worth a total of £230. Inside you’ll find everything from moisturiser to fragrance, shampoo, sun protection, body shimmer and hair treatments from the likes of Estee Lauder, Floral Street, Colourwow and Clinique.

Alternatively, Space NK’s The Party Edit is priced at £65 and boasts a value exceeding £150. It features seven bestselling items from leading brands including Color Wow, Laura Mercier, Vieve, About Face and others.

Returning to Cult Beauty, here’s what’s included in The First Class Edit:

• Sunday Riley C.E.O. Brightening Serum (8ml)
• Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Pads (14 pack)
• Medik8 Liquid Peptides (30ml full size)
• Augustinus Bader The Cream (7ml)
• 111SKIN Black Diamond Face Mask (full size)
• Lanolips 101 Ointment Multi-Balm Raspberry Shortcake (3g)
• Supergoop Glowscreen SPF 30 (50ml full size)

One buyer said of the edit: “Finally a good edit worth every penny! Ranging from toning to sunscreen. The peptide serum itself is well justified this edit cannot be missed.”

Another added: “Obsessed with every product, great value 10/10. So excited to try everything.”

“The cult beauty edits just keep getting better and better,” said a third. “Amazing value for money. High quality brands in a well curated bag.”

Though one commented: “Nice range of products, great value, but why spoil it with such a short expiry on the SPF.”

For skincare enthusiasts, this ranks among the strongest beauty edits we’ve witnessed in recent months. The £45 price point combined with heavyweight brands like Medik8, Sunday Riley, Augustinus Bader and Supergoop is genuinely impressive, meaning this collection is unlikely to hang around for long.
