High street pharmacy giant Boots has sent beauty lovers into a frenzy by slashing the price of a hugely popular gift set from a viral brand. The Sol de Janeiro Beija Flor Jet Set, originally priced at £30, has been reduced to just £21.
What's In The Discounted Set?
The Beija Flor Jet Set is a complete, travel-sized skincare trio, perfect for holidays or weekends away. The set contains three key products, all infused with the brand's bright Cheirosa 68 fragrance.
It includes the Beija Flor Renewing Body Wash, a creamy and vegan cleanser, followed by the Beija Flor Elasti-Cream, which is designed to boost collagen for plump and resilient skin. The routine is finished with a bright, floral perfume mist. All products are marketed as being collagen-boosting, aiming to improve skin firmness and texture.
High Demand and Limited Availability
The popularity of Sol de Janeiro's products is clear, as this discount comes after two of the brand's other gift sets have already sold out at Boots. The famous Brazilian Bum Bum set, recognisable by its bright yellow packaging, is no longer available. Similarly, the Bom Dia Bright Body set, with its fruity and floral scent, has also been snapped up by shoppers.
This makes the Beija Flor Jet Set the last remaining option, but it is certainly not a consolation prize. Customer reviews suggest it holds its own, with one shopper declaring it "smells amazing" and stating they now need to invest in the full-sized products. Another offered a more nuanced opinion, noting that the scent develops over time rather than being immediately powerful upon application.
Alternative Options and Verdict
For those hesitant about the fragrance, High Street retailer Next offers a similar alternative. Their Flowers Mini Travel Bath & Body Gift Bag Set, priced at £22, is described as having an uplifting and feel-good scent and has been praised by customers as the "perfect gift" that leaves skin "so soft and supple."
However, with the Beija Flor set being significantly discounted and from a brand with a massive social media following, it represents a compelling deal. The combination of a coveted brand, a useful travel size, and a £9 price reduction suggests this remaining set is unlikely to stay on shelves for long.
