The Full Reveal: The Glow-Up Edit, worth over £95

Image description

 

If there’s one word that defines beauty right now, it’s glow - but not in the way you might think. Glow has officially grown up. It’s no longer about blinding highlight or high-shine everything; it’s about skin that looks healthy, rested and genuinely well cared for. That subtle, lit-from-within radiance is exactly why this month’s Glow-Up Edit felt so timely - and why it’s such a perfect first introduction to what OK! Beauty Box is all about.

Designed as a fresh-season reset, this latest box captures everything our beauty experts look for when curating your edits: products that work beautifully together, deliver real results and make you feel confident using them. This edit is all about glow in every sense - luminous skin, lifted lashes, glossy lips and that quietly confident energy that comes from feeling polished (with minimal effort required). And when three of the five products quite literally have “glow” in their name, you know our beauty experts mean business.

Inside your Glow-Up Edit, every product is full-size and chosen to work together to deliver modern, wearable radiance. Mudmasky’s Glow-Up Cleanser refreshes and revives post-winter skin, creating the perfect clean canvas. Glowcore’s Glow Drops layer on that light-catching, lit-from-within finish.

For the eyes, the KAB Cosmetics Lash Curler and Saint Luxe Brown Mascara lift and define with a softness that feels effortlessly chic - less heavy glam, more bright-eyed brilliance. And finally, Gatineau’s Peptide Lip Treatment in Glow adds smoothness, subtle volume and a glossy sheen that pulls everything together.

As always, this box is worth far more than the price of the  subscription. The contents are worth over £85 but you can get your first box for just £8.99 when you sign up to our monthly subscription boxes.

The boxes are £15 a month thereafter and you’re always guaranteed to receive over £80 worth of beauty (saving you over 80% on the retail price of the products) straight to your front door every month!

Together, these five products create the ultimate spring-ready ritual. Less heavy glam, more effortless radiance - because confidence looks good on everyone.

Here’s a closer look inside your OK! Beauty Box Glow-Up Edit…

Gatineau Defi Lift™ Volumising Peptide Lip Treatment in the shade Glow

10ml full-size, worth £32

I love a lip product that actually improves lips, not just coats them in shine. This one feels beautifully balmy, but the added peptides mean lips look smoother and subtly fuller. The glossy finish is comfortable and never sticky, so no awkward hair-stuck-to-lips moments!

But don’t just take my word for it. A list make-up artist, Hannah Martin, handpicked it for her sell-out Advent Calendar with us last year, so you can trust it’s not just good, it’s red carpet approved.

The benefits:

  • Luxurious yet lightweight formula offers instant results
  • Lips will look plumper and fuller whilst leaving them soft, supple and conditioned
  • Smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a healthy and hydrated look

How to use:

Apply alone or under/over lipstick. It can also be used as an overnight mask. Smooth into lip and lines around the lip to help smooth the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

KAB Cosmetics Lash Curler

Full-size, worth £12

A great lash curler is one of the most underrated tools in any kit. This one gives that immediate, wide awake lift without the harsh crimp some curlers leave behind. The ergonomic shape makes it easy to position properly, which is half the battle.

Top tip: gently warm the curler between fingertips for a few seconds before using. It helps the curl hold for even longer, especially on straight lashes.

The benefits:

  • Delivers instant long-lasting curl without pinching or harsh creasing
  • Universal eye-shape fit for comfortable and precise curling
  • Durable stainless steel tool with soft silicone pad for safe curling

How to use:

Use on clean, dry lashes before mascara. Position the curler at the lash base, gently squeeze and hold for 5 to 10 seconds. Repeat at mid lash for added lift, then apply mascara.

Saint Luxe Lash Lift & Define Mascara in the shade Brown

7g full-size, worth £18

Black mascara will always have its place, but at this time of year it can feel a little heavy. Brown gives the same lift and definition, just in a softer, more flattering way. It brightens the eyes without creating stark contrast, which works beautifully with fresher skin and lighter makeup. It’s the shade that makes lashes look naturally full, like your own but better, perfect for that effortless, barely there feel.

The benefits:

  • Buildable, smudge resistant formula that separates without clumping
  • Brown pigment enhances naturally without the intensity of black mascara
  • Lengthens and lifts lashes for a softly defined, eye opening finish

How to use:

Starting at the roots, sweep the wand through lashes using a gentle zig zag motion to build lift and separation. Layer for added length and intensity, focusing on outer lashes to enhance a softly lifted, eye opening effect.

Mudmasky Glow-Up Cleanser

60ml full-size, worth £27

Glowing skin starts with clean skin, and this gentle everyday gel cleanser feels cooling and refreshing. It’ll leave your skin perfectly clean without it feeling stripped, tight or dry, thanks to the combination of tea tree oil, aloe vera and chamomile in the formula.

The benefits:

  • Gently removes make-up, oil and impurities to clear pores and remove toxins
  • Calms irritation and reduces redness with ingredients like aloe vera and chamomile extract
  • Restores your skin’s natural pH, ensuring optimal hydration and a balanced, healthy complexion

How to use:

Work the gel into a light lather and apply to wet skin in circular motions. Rinse and gently pat your face dry with a clean towel.

Glowcore Glow Drops

10ml full-size, worth £10

Glow drops can easily tip into looking obvious, but the best ones melt into skin and simply make it look healthier. This formula does exactly that. A couple of drops mixed into foundation is often enough to take the complexion from flat to fresh. On no make-up days, it’s pressed onto cheekbones for a subtle sheen that catches the light beautifully. Radiance, but in a way that still looks like real skin.

The benefits:

  • Lightweight illuminating serum designed to deliver a lit-from-within glow
  • Can be worn alone, mixed with foundation, or applied as a targeted highlighter
  • Hydrating, skin-enhancing formula with a blendable texture makes it suitable for all skin types

How to use:

Mix 1 to 2 drops into foundation for a seamless, all-over glow. Tap onto the high points of the face to highlight, or wear alone on bare skin for fresh, natural luminosity.

Inside the box, you’ll also receive a voucher for 2 copies of OK! Magazine, bringing you all the latest beauty, fashion, and lifestyle trends each week.
