Net-A-Porter Ultimate Beauty Kit – Available Now!

Well, I ordered this box and a couple others (Popsugar Must Have/Limited Women’s and Neiman Marcus) to open on Christmas with my 30 year old daughter. We had so much fun going through everything in this box, and there were plenty of items for each of us. Some items were better suited to my daughter’s skin coloring and her age. That said, three items listed above and on the insert inside the box were not included, and we couldn’t find any substitutions, as one might expect. : ( One of the lipsticks came in a different color, but that worked out well, so minus the three items (about $73+ worth) not being in there, the box was still a hit. $250 was a fair amount to spend on something that didn’t contain all the items it said it would, but in the end we still had FUN! Might be more cautious next year with this box however.

I don’t see a review for this box. Did Liz not get it?? Looks like it’s out of stick but I’d still love to see a review. 🙂

there is a Mr Porter grooming kit too 🙂

NAP website says 16 full size and 16 travel size. List here has 12 items marked as full size….any idea what the other four full size items are? Thanks!

I don’t know what to do I really want this. If the Burberry lip and the other red product were any other color than red i would have already signed up. This is such a great deal for items I never get to try. I guess I will think it over.

Does anybody know what that white, leather looking thing is in the middle of the picture?

The closest Nordstrom is 5 hours away-as is Sephora. I had to rely on stalking websites and the random catalog for new makeup and skincare. Subscription boxes have helped me find new products and some high end ones I would Never have considered. (Beautyfix!!!) That said-this box appeals to me as a way to try a Lot of new things without waiting for the dribs and drabs from Play. (The exclamation point just never happens when I open this box) and Allure. Canceling part of my annual trek to Nordstrom to purchase this-and hoping the lipsticks look good on me!

: / so tempting! Sure wishing Santa would pick this up for me and then he wouldn’t be surprised at the $195 charge on the credit card statement.

Ordered one as I loved my kit last year and think I will this year too. But I’m confused. On their website it states this box includes 16 full size and 16 travel items, but I only count 12 full size on the list from above. Anybody know what the other 4 full size items are?

Argh…too expensive for me. Good thing it’s mostly facial products and not hair products. Otherwise it would be hard to resist. Lol

Mostly love it – except for the lipsticks. None in my colour. So once I put in perspective that with the exchange rate to Cad$, the box plus shipping plus duties is essentially my Burberry rain boots that I want to get… it’s easy to say no given that all the lipsticks would just collect dust in a drawer.
Plus, my Sephora cart is full waiting for the 14th, and then at least I know that what I get is exactly the shade I want. On the other hand I would have bought this for my mom without a second thought but she told me this weekend in very clear terms not to get her a single beauty / cosmetic thing, she is drowning in them. I do believe that for those buying as gifts, the recipient would adore it – it has lovely products.

Wow!! This looks fantastic. If I hadn’t just done a massive Sephora haul during the VIB sale I would go for it, but I can’t justify the expense right now. Will definitely be watching for some things to pop up in swaps.

I am so torn about this box. Have been stalking the site for it to arrive. Wish the lipsticks were different colors. That would definitely sell me. Even though that eye mask has a high retail value, I tend not to like that brand as it is heavily perfumed (or at least all I have tried has been). Have spent a LOT over the weekend so am pausing rather than automatically buying.

I debated for about 5 minutes lol. Pulled the gun even though the only full size I care about is the Kevyn Aucoin one. The samples of skin care stuff makes it worth it for me. Plus, I don’t have any of the stuff in this set.

Debating getting this box, but just this past week I’ve bought the Adidas box, another Rachel Zoe fall box, dermstore box, popsugar november box.

Oh no typing that out I need to pull back a bit.

That said, this would be the perfect box if they threw in a full size or even travel size candle. I think their sales would probably jump 100% lol nobody can resist a full size DIPTIQUE or NEST

I have been waiting for this box and purchased. I do not subscribe to any beauty only boxes and last years box was great. What I do not keep I am sure my granddaughter and niece will take off my hands. I had checked out Sephora and the one box I was interested in was sold out already.

A good deal but I really don’t need or use most of it. And I’m already on overload with what I do have so this is easy to miss up.

I like this – but it’s a big purchase and I’m torn with Sephora’s VIB 20% off sale this weekend and upcoming Black Friday deals.

Does net-a-porter have any sale or discount codes? Do they run any Black Friday specials?

Thanks to anyone who has insights!!

Actually the Chantecaille Gold Energizing Eye Mask is $195.00 for a box of 8, not 1 mask.

A bit disappointed. After all this time holding my breath for this box, I’m underwhelmed. I’ve budgeted for a pricey box but I’m not sure I want this. ?

Not interested in the products enough for $195. I haven’t gone through everything from last years box. I’ll pass on this one.

I actually think this looks pretty good – definitely value for your money. Whether you are interested in those products is a different story

I have never spent this much on a box before, so I am hesitating. But I do really want it.

It’s funny, I would probably spend $40 each on 5 limited edition boxes without thinking about it, and this really isn’t different from that, but there is something about the size of the charge that is holding me back.

Yikes! That would not allow me to buy any other boxes for the rest of the year ?!

Eye recovery mask has a value of $195. I can’t imagine anything would make my eyes that much better with one application…
The values on these items are crazy.
Not for me.
