You Beauty Discovery Box; November

I'm fairly late with this post this month since I've had the box for well over a week however since the winter is barely giving any decent sunlight, taking photos has become a difficult task. Since I managed to grab a good 20 minutes of light the other day I have taken all the photos I've needed for some upcoming posts and reviews. 

As usual the box cost £6.95 inc p&p which is really good value considering the contents is always worth quite abit more. The two items I personally chose were the Bourjois Cream Blush in 03 and the Magnifibres Brush On False Lashes. I have another one of the blush in the same shade and use it when I'm doing minimal make-up as it adds a healthy sheen of pink to the cheeks. The Magnifibres is a product that I have always wanted to try but never actually got round to purchasing, I'm currently giving it a go and will hopefully do a review on it soon. 

In the box were the couple of free samples and this time there were two Merumaya skincare products, I've never tried the brand before so I'll be interested to check these out, the only problem with them being samples is there isnt enough to see if it works before having to buy a full size, from the brand I got the Melting Cleansing Balm and Youth Serum. 

Lastly I got a drink sachet from Baobab which is a health inspired drink and contains lots of vitamins and antioxidents, I haven't tried this yet but it does sound quite nice and I do like vitamin drinks so I should hopefully enjoy this one. 

Okay so that's everything from this months box, please leave any comments below I read everyone and will reply to any questions.

Latest In Beauty Box; Glamour Power List

I've really got into beauty boxes this year and have used You Beauty Discovery boxes since February and really love it. However I had seen this box on blogs and Youtube and had looked at a different box earlier this year but never actually purchased it as with P&P on top this box can be nearly £20 which does put me off a bit, but then I had an email about there being free postage and thought I may aswell give it a go for what is inside. I must say it has not been a dissapointment! 

The box itself is very well presented and I really like that all the products are of a decent size so you can give them a more realistic test before buying the actual thing. The box also comes with an information card with a little introduction to each item so if you are unfamiliar with something it tells you enough for you to get the most out of what you're using. 

Inside the box there is a James Read Sleep Mask Tan, which works as both a facial moisturiser and gradual tanner for your face. It has a Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, this is something I've wanted to try for a while and is a cult favourite skincare brand. The Philip Kingsley Daily Damage Defence Conditioning Spray is another item I'm interested in as I love to test anything that may improve the condition of my hair. There is three make up products in the box which are a Maybelline Colour Sensational Nude, a Bourjois Volume 1 Second Mascara which is fast becoming my favourite mascara, and the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer which I haven't yet tried but have heard some really great reviews. Finally some Eyeko Mascara Off Eye Makeup Remover Wipes, these are supposed to make getting eye make up off easier which is a plus for me with sensitive eyes. 

I am really pleased with this box and will definitely buy others from Latest In Beauty in the future as it is really good value for money and has a nice variation of products to try. 

Let me know if you tried this box and what you thought, I read and reply to all comments

September YBD Box

So I've been signed up to the You Beauty Discovery Box for about 5/6 months and everytime one of these little guys lands through my postbox it never disappoints me. As the box is only £6.95 including P&P I think it's a complete steal, especially when the products inside will always amount to more individually. 

This months box celebrates YBD's 1st birthday and so you get your usual two selected products, and a couple of tea bags and make up sponge as little free treats but you also get a 90ml Toni & Guy Volume Plumping Whip, so for such an inexpensive box you're already getting alot. 

Now for my two chosen products, these were the two that I was really excited about. I got the two lip products that were available; the Pixi Tinted Brilliance Balm that comes in a chubby stick kind of packaging, the shade I got was Pretty Pink and is exactly what it says on the tin, it is an really lovely everyday shade of pink, the formula seems creamy and sheer so really looking forward to trying that out properly. The second is the Wild About Beauty Nutrilips Colour Lipstick, I got this in the shade Bobbi which is a beige nude and looks like an exact dupe for Mac's Jubilee which is one my favourites. 

So overall I'm really, really pleased with this months box! It's such a nice monthly treat and so much cheaper than most of the others that are around. Hope you liked this post and have a lovely Saturday!
