Price and Value
The set costs €250. According to Shiseido, buying the items one by one would cost €585, so the set price is about 43 percent of the stated total. The sources do not give the individual retail prices of the eight items, so the €585 figure could not be checked independently. Stated values in gift sets are the brand's own totals.
How It Compares with Previous Releases
Beauty Detective's 2024 write-up lists that year's kit at £160 with a stated value of £320. That kit had three full-size items (the cleansing foam, the Vital Perfection cream and the mascara) and six smaller ones. The 2026 kit has six full-size items and two minis, so more of the contents are full size. The currencies differ (£ in 2024, € now), so the prices are not directly comparable.
Key Details
The Vital Perfection cream and the Ultimune serum are both 50 ml full sizes. The eye cream is also full size at 15 ml. The set also includes a cleansing foam, a cleansing massage brush, a hand cream mini and two makeup items: a full-size mascara and a mini lipstick.
