When selecting Mother’s Day presents, luxury skincare remains amongst the most cherished and valued options. For a limited period, shoppers can obtain over £210 worth of complimentary premium items from Royally-favoured Rodial through a gift-ready collection.
The brand has introduced a Bee Venom Cleanse, Treat and Moisturise Kit, delivering a comprehensive three-step skincare regimen for £125, reduced from £335. It’s been formulated particularly for mature skin types and individuals concerned about advanced ageing indicators.
Featuring cutting-edge bee venom technology and drawn from the brand’s renowned Rodial Bee Venom collection – which Kate Middleton reportedly uses – this anti-ageing system aims to visibly firm, smooth and rejuvenate mature complexions. It addresses primary ageing signs, including fine lines, wrinkles and diminished elasticity.
A standout item within the collection is the Bee Venom Eye Cream. Valued at £145 individually, purchasers of the set essentially receive the other two products at no additional cost, reports The Mirror.
Alternatively, each product costs approximately £41.67. The delicate eye area often reveals the earliest signs of ageing, including fine lines, crepey texture and dark circles.
This ‘extreme-performance eye treatment’ utilises bee venom to boost blood circulation, visibly plumping out the appearance of wrinkles beneath the eyes. Meanwhile, plant stem cells and haloxyl work to noticeably enhance skin tone and elasticity for a more luminous look, whilst cyclopeptide-5 smooths the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Numerous reviewers describe it as the ‘best’ eye cream they’ve tried, with one noting: “The eye cream lasts super long and can totally change your entire eye area when used consistently.”
Customers have reported a ‘tightening’ sensation, alongside brighter, smoother under-eyes within weeks. One stated: “It not only depuff, but it smoothes and makes you look like you’ve had a fantastic night’s sleep as well.”
Another commented: “What an amazing cream. I’m 53 years old and don’t obsess about wrinkles. I couldn’t believe my eyes – this does what it says on the tin. I’d buy a gallon if I could afford it.”
As with all high-performance skincare products, those with sensitive skin should conduct a patch test beforehand. A minority of customers have experienced irritation, with one sharing: “I was so excited about this product and wanted to love it. But after half a jar I can say my eyes don’t love it. It irritates my skin.”
Another five-star review stated: “It is amazing. So easily absorbed, not oily with a great texture! Slightly tightening effect. Love it.”
A sixth customer wrote: “I have used many eye creams over the years but I have to say, The Bee Venom Eye cream is the best product on the market. After several weeks, the area around eye had less wrinkles and fine lines became smoother. Also the area looked significantly brighter and firmer. The cream is exactly as advertised.”

Another premium and scientifically formulated eye cream worth exploring is Augustinus Bader’s The Eye Cream, priced at £170. Rich in consistency, it features TFC8, a proprietary peptide blend designed to support skin regeneration and promote a firmer appearance.
Returning to Rodial, the Mother’s Day gift set also includes a Bee Venom Cleansing Balm 100ml. The cleanser is a luxurious balm that transforms into a featherweight milk, dissolving makeup and debris whilst refining pores thanks to salicylic acid.
Completing the collection is the Bee Venom Moisturiser 50ml, which blends firming bee venom with botanical extracts to visibly enhance tone, elasticity and luminosity. All products arrive in a spacious Rodial transparent bag and black gift bag, making it gift-ready without any eleventh-hour wrapping needed.
Alternative Mother’s Day beauty collections worth browsing include The Mother’s Day Edit from LookFantastic. Tagged at £50 but worth £180, it showcases names such as Elemis, Clinique and The White Company.
Alternatively, those purchasing gifts for a new mother might consider the Mum and New Baby Gift Box from OK! priced at £49.99 yet containing products valued at over £220. The collection features items from brands including Aromatherapy Associates, Dr Lipp and others, and shoppers can currently use the code FEBPAYDAY6 to bring the price down to just £34.99.
What makes the Rodial set particularly appealing, however, is that all products come in full sizes, allowing purchasers to experience their complete benefits and observe more significant results than trial-sized alternatives would deliver. For mothers addressing fine lines, wrinkles and diminished elasticity, it represents excellent value, especially considering the eye cream alone exceeds the cost of the entire collection.
