I am a huge fan of mini products and if you follow me on Instagram, you will have seen just how many I have from L’Occitane! For me, they are great for holidays and short breaks and more so, if you have a whole host of products you want to try, then the option for trying a smaller size at a fraction of the cost, especially when you might not like the product after all. In the past, I have been one of those persons who has loved the sound of a product only to purchase it and find that it hasn’t been right for me and I’ve essentially wasted hard earned money.
Cult Beauty in their infinite wisdom have recently launched their Mini product section* on the website and I am in impressed with the number of brands and products there is on offer.

We live in an age where brands are literally inventing, reinventing, sly copying, duping, reformulating and even re-packaging, to that end, I constantly have a huge list of makeup, haircare, skincare and even bath products that I really want to try.
Here is a list of the five mini items I currently have in my Cult Beauty basket:
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask (£19.50 30ml) - Anything K-Beauty related is automatically going to capture my attention and this mask has been on my radar for quite some time now and for me, this is a great way to try it. Described as being a luxuriously ‘bouncy’, lightweight, gel-like sleeping mask, this mask uses watermelon extract, for its ability to soothe irritated and inflamed skin hydrating hyaluronic acid and exfoliating, pore-refining alpha-hydroxy acids that get to work while you sleep.
Saturday Skin No Bad Days Kit (£31) - Another brand who keeps catching my eye on Instagram is Saturday Skin with their bright pastel pink packaging. This Kit features four of the brands products which are the Rub-A-Dub Refining Peel Gel (20ml), Daily Dew Hydrating Essence Mist (30ml), Wide Awake Brightening Eye Cream (15ml) and Featherweight Daily Moisturising Cream (30ml) and it is a great way to be introduced.
Therapie Discovery Kit (£44) - I absolutely adore the Himalayan Bath Salts from Therapie, literally the best bath salts I have ever used, so naturally, I want to try everything else to offer. This Discovery Kit contains Boost Hair & Body Wash (50ml), Equilibrium Bath & Shower Essence (30ml), Himalayan Detox Salts (70g), Cherish Skin Repair Serum (30ml) and Restore Aura Spray (30ml).
Hourglass Caution Extreme Mascara (£12) - Having seen this mascara raved about by some of my favourite bloggers, I want to try it and the travel size is half the price of a full-size version and I am totally lured in. Described as being a Mascara which gives enviable length, extreme volume and eye-opening definition for your most explosive lash look ever.
The final item currently sitting in my basket is the Natasha Denona Mini Bronze and Glow Compact (£16). There is no denying that every single product released by Natasha Denona is just stunning, but the prices often make my eyes water, so currently, this Bronzer and Highlighter has my attention because the price point is pretty good and if I don't like it, I haven't wasted a lot of money.
Alongside these products, there are well over 200 other options to choose from including products from NARS, Drunk Elephant, Morphe, Iconic London, Benefit, Too Faced and many more.
