Shiseido Sun Value Set

beautybonus1 Comment

Update: Someone wrote to me and said that Nordstrom has updated their site and unfortunately this kit no longer counts towards the bonus. This year’s Shiseido Sun Value Set is now available for purchase. I buy one of these every year and have never been disappointed, I love their sun products. They release one of these kits each year and the products vary slightly but they always include a full size of the excellent Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF 50+ and a fantastic insulated cosmetic bag. I ordered mine this morning from Nordstrom when I saw that it was available plus they still had the Skincare Bonus! This year’s set, the Shiseido 360° Sun Protection Set, is a $131 value that you can buy for just $69 and includes these products:

  • Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF 50+ (full size, 3.3 oz)
  • Urban Environment Oil-Free UV Protector SPF 42 (full size, 1 oz)
  • White Lucent Intensive Spot Targeting Serum (0.3 oz)
  • White Lucent Anti-Dark Circles Eye Cream (0.17 oz)
  • White Lucent Brightening Power Mask (one)
  • Insulated cosmetic bag
  • Shiseido Bonus is still going on at Nordstrom, while supplies last purchase any two Shiseido skincare products (this kit counts as one product) and receive a free five piece gift with one of these codes at checkout: BENEFIANCE, BIOPERFORM, PURENESS, SKINCARE, or WHTLUCENT
  • You will also receive free shipping and can choose three free packette samples at checkout
  • Note: This set is also available direct from Shiseido where you will receive free shipping and can choose three free samples at checkout
