Like many of you I'm sure... I'm slightly obsessed with travel-sized products. Not only does it mean you can cram as many products as possible into your travel beauty stash, but it's also a great way of trying out new products without them going to waste if you don't fall in love with them and let's face it, everything's cuter in miniature! So when these little (well actually, they aren't as little as I expected, but I'll get to that later) kits landed on my desk last week, they gave me that little buzz of excitement that got me into beauty blogging in the first place (if you're a fellow beauty fanatic... you know what I mean, right?)
They are the EveryBODY Beauty Workshop Sports Kits from Selfridges (ridiculously long name, I know!) but essentially it's three bags of beauty goodies that are aimed at three different types of sports: Yoga, Running and Swimming. Each kit has been put together by the Selfridges beauty buyers (possibly the best job ever?!) is £40 and comes packed with beauty minis to save the day and keep you looking fabulous whilst undertaking the above sweaty, windy or wet activities! Even if you're not into the above sports... the majority of the contents of all three kits are actually pretty great and you might want to try them anyway!
My personal favourite is the swimming kit, even though I rarely swim - so you get my point! Each kit comes in a clear pvc washbag from Emma Lomax with a different embroidered design on it - an aspect which also got me excited as I adore see-through beauty bags for travelling and simply day-to-day convenience too. They are also surprisingly large! I put my hand into the above photo to give some scale here, but it's fair to say you could fit all of your essentials in. Below is a little run-down of what is in each kit and my thoughts on the products...
The Yoga Kit
Contains:
- Sample size of The Super Elixir
- Dr Paw Paw Original Ointment 25ml
- Konjac Body Sponge
- BKR water bottle
- Bumble & Bumble Texturising Powder 56g
- Dermalogica Ultracalming Mist 50ml
This bag is my personal favourite looks-wise, being pink with a silver bhudda, but I think in terms of contents this excites me the least and also has quite a few less products than the other two kits. It really depends on your interests though as this has a few full sizes/more lifestyle items including the much-talked-about Super Elixir Protein (a sample size which I think is a single portion) a body version of the Konjac sponge (I have and love the face version) and a bkr water bottle. This kit is the least beauty-centric.The Running Kit
Contains:
- Molton Brown Eucalyptus Shower Gel 100ml
- Aromatherapy Associates Body Gel 40ml
- Cowshed Cow Pat hand cream 50ml
- Lipstick Queen Jungle Queen Lipstick (a red - this was the one surprise product for me... great but not for running?!)
- Vaseline original tin
- Compeed blister plasters
- Starskin foot mask
- Lancaster Tan Maximiser 50ml
- Bumble & Bumble Invisible Oil 25ml
- 4x Ribband hair ties
This has quite a lot of bang for your buck with a few full sizes (vaseline, lipstick, compeed, starskin, hairbands) and contains a couple of favourites of mine including the Molton Brown shower gel and the Lancaster Tan Maximizer.
The Swimming Kit
Contains:
- Ole Henriksen Face Wipes
- Eyeko waterproof mascara in black
- Lord & Berry waterproof eyeliner in black
- Bumble & Bumble Invisible Oil shampoo 60ml
- Bumble & Bumble Invisible Oil conditioner 60ml
- St Tropez in-shower gradual tan 50ml
- The Organic Pharmacy Rose body lotion 65ml
- The Organic Pharmacy Rose shower gel 65ml
- Essie Apricot cuticle oil
For me, this kit is the one I would buy myself and use every single product. Because of the swimming element, it's also a perfect holiday kit. I especially love the travel size of Ole Henriksen wipes (my faves!) and the travel size shampoo and conditioner.
These kits are available from Selfridges and online here, now. £40 each.
What do you guys think? Is anyone else utterly obsessed with minis?!
These look soooo good 😍

I'm with you Fleur the swimming bag for its contents but it's the least pretty of the three.
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence! I was thinking of beauty products targeted at sports/exercise: something sweat-proof, something exfoliating while moisturizing, etc. Hits the nail on the head!
ReplyDeleteThat bag is so cute! Love all the minis :)

These look amazing! Is it bad that I want them all!?

Ooooh, these look awesome. I just love minis and those bags are so cute too! Yup, I prefer the swimming kit as well.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Mimi
Ooohh I love these. The yoga one is my favourite, but I'm trying to only use cruelty-free now so I don't think I can get it :-/

I love the look of the yoga kit!
ReplyDeleteWow, these look so great! Thanks for the heads up :-)
ReplyDeletemoremindfulyou.blogspot.com
oooh I can´t really choose between the swimming one and the running kit. They both seem great! But I agree the swimming one has a lot to do with holiday so it is great for this time of the year!
ReplyDeletewww.mishii.co.uk
i love the running kit, but those hair ties would never hold my pony tail in place. i think i really just want the bag ;-)
ReplyDeletewww.impossiblejen.com
I'm not a big runner and I've never done yoga so I don't know how well those kits would work out, but the swimming one seems perfect! There is nothing worse than coming out of the pool with mascara dripping down your face haha

These look so good! The running kit looks amazing :)

This looks like so much fun!
ReplyDeletehttp://thenewoldfashionedgirl.blogspot.com/
Wow, I love this idea. Although I am not a swimmer, I agree with you on the third bag!
ReplyDeletehttp://lapetiteperleblanche.blogspot.de/
I do love this kit! x
ReplyDeletewww.whiitelist.com
I love all of them! *goes to selfridges*
ReplyDeletewww.whynotblog.co.uk
I have to agree, even though I rarely go swimming the swim kit is the one I would want to try the most!
ReplyDeleteBrittany | thechicette.com
The swimming bag is easily my favourite. Not that I plan on any lengths of the pool anytime soon, but for post li-lo in the sun this is top drawer!
ReplyDeletewww.beekeyper.com
Nice! I really like the last set too.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely guilty of not having gone running in FOREVER, but that kit might just be an incentive to get my butt in gear! Love the look of the swimming set too.
ReplyDeletewww.lookwhosyorking.blogspot.co.uk
These look so useful! Although the yoga one would be most appropriate for me and the packaging is the best, in terms of products the running kit looks amazing :-)

These sound amazing, can never have too many miniatures either!
ReplyDeleteThese kits look great!! I try to swim at least once a week so the swimming kit seems right up my street!! Do you know if they are available online / outside the UK ? I'd love to try them - so cute!!
ReplyDeletehttp://anaisloves.blogspot.com/
I just checked: the Selfridges website does ship to France, but shipping costs 18euros, which brings the sports kit up to 70euros.. A bit to pricey for this time, but I'll definitely check the B&B products in my nearest Sephora :D
ReplyDeletehttp://anaisloves.blogspot.com/
Ah Emma Lomax always comes up with such cute designs for bags! I love mini beauty products too. I think the Yoga one would be my fave! X
ReplyDelete♥ Carly Susanne
The products in the swimming kit make the most sense considering the activity in my opinion. It's such a great idea to design these kits, even though I might have gone for different products. However, I love miniature size products so I'm pretty intrigued by these kits. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCheryl | SwissBeautyTalk
I love minis, for all the reasons you stated! These kits are very cute. x
ReplyDeleteKate Louise Blogs
Ooh these look really good! Another reason why I buy so many minis is just because they look too cute not to buy...!
