NOTE: We are realigning the seasons for this box. GQ Best Stuff hasn’t been consistent with any naming but given their shipping schedule and the contents, it’s clear that this is a Winter box.
Your stuff arrives in a reusable black box with a GQ Best Stuff logo on it.
All the items are neatly placed inside the box, most being included in their full original packaging.
The box also includes an info pamphlet covering everything in the box.
A full sheet details the entire contents.
NOTE: There’s an either/or item in this box (the Lab Series Eye Lift or the Crux Charcoal Face Scrub). It isn’t immediately obvious from the insert – it’s in the fine print!
