Love Lula Beauty Box - October

-

October's Love Lula Beauty Box* is worth a whopping £55! Containing 2 full sized products, 2 deluxe travel sizes plus a sachet. Also included in the box as a generous 20% off discount code to use against any of the brands featured in the box. Monthly subscriptions for Love Lula Beauty box is £14.95 or £19.95 for a one off box. Full details of subscriptions can be found here. Let's take a look at the contents....


First up and new from Ooh Oils of Heaven is their Baobab Oil (£19, 30ml) which is rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 making it ideal for maintaining healthy skin. Can be used alone or on top of your usual moisturiser. Ooh Oils are always a welcome sight to the boxes, they are lovely to use and absorb nicely onto skin.

Greenfrog Botanic Shampoo Bar with Argan & Rose is a generous 23g sample (£4.95, 50g). This shampoo bar will nourish, hydrate and deeply cleanse your hair. My hair felt soft and looked healthy after using this bar. There is currently three different scents available on Love Lula, all of them sound lovely so I will be trying out more in the future.

From Balm Balm is the Frankincense Deep Cleansing Balm (£9.50, 30ml) and Muslin Cloth (£9 pack of 3) Made with Shea butter, Beeswax, Sunflower and Jojoba to lift impurities from the skin, Calendula to soothe, Frankincense to rejuvenate and Grapefruit to refresh skin. I have used this balm before and really enjoyed using it.

The product I'm most excited about it Madara Shape Caffeine-Maté Cellulite Cream (£17, 100ml) which has a lovely citrusy smell. This cream will hydrated and tone the skin for a firmer and smoother appearance. Who doesn't need that?! Enriched with stimulating Caffeine and extracts of Horse Chestnut, Spirulina and Maté Tea, the formula delivers a power effect, activating circulation in your hips, thighs, tummy and upper arms. Time will tell if this makes a difference to the cellulite on my thighs!

Finishing off the box is a sachet of Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum. A light brightening serum for luminous, dewy skin and protection from environmental damage. I spied this serum as soon as it landed on the Love Lula website, so I'm looking forward to trying this. Vitamin C is great for the skin.

PureChimp Matcha Green Tea Review

-

I normally have 2 or 3 coffees a day but have been swapping my morning coffee for a PureChimp Matcha Green Tea *(50g £9.95) Purechimp offer 4 flavours. Regular, turmeric, mint or lemon matcha tea. I personally preferred the PureChimp Lemon Matcha Green Tea * (20g £4.95) over the regular Matcha. The taste is not unpleasant but does takes a bit of getting used too, especially if you are having it solely with water. You can enjoy Matcha in a variety of ways however...adding half a teaspoon into smoothies, juice or make a Matcha Latte. Recipe below. Matcha can also be added into home bakes just as cookies, brownies and pancakes. The possibilities are endless really. It's reccomemded you have 1-2 servings per day but up to 5 is fine. More than this will put you over the reccomended caffeine limit. Matcha Green Tea contains around 35mg of caffeine per serving. A serving is 1g (½ a level teaspoon). Benefits of Matcha Tea Over 50x the anti-oxidising

March Love Lula Beauty Box

The March Love Lula Beauty Box* contains 6 products from brands including Balm Balm, Ayumi, Madara and Soul Tree, with the contents having a total value of £52 which is fantastic value for this box. Love Lula are making some changes to their monthly subscription which will be coming to an end in May. I will miss the surprise treat every month but don't panic! Love Lula will be making the boxes available to purchase on the store individually as opposed to being subscription-based. This provides the opportunity for future Beauty Boxes to be curated with a more defined theme or purpose, which sounds exciting to me and I can't wait to see what the coming months will bring. Anyway....back to the box in hand.... Balm Balm Super Light Coconut Cleanser (£15, 100ml) This gentle cleanser is made from blended coconut oils which have been mechanically extracted from virgin coconut butter making it a super light oil. It can be used on sensitive skin including the eye area making it perfect

Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask

One thing I love about skincare products is a good face mask...who doesn't am I right?! I was very excited this month to be given a chance to test out the Aura Manuka Honey Mask from Antipodes. It is suitable for most skin types, but especially great for blemish prone skin, so perfect for my skin type...in theory. The Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask * is £26.99 and comes in a 75ml foil tube inside a cardboard box (which can both be recycled!) As a little goes a long way, I can see this mask lasting a good amount of time. Containing a blend of Manuka Honey, Avocado oil, Carrot oil, Grape Seed extract, Pohutukawa flower extract and vitamin E alongside essential oils of vanilla and mandarin, this face mask is sure to leave skin soothed and deeply hydrated. Pohutukawa (known as the New Zealand Christmas tree because it flowers gloriously in December) contains antioxidants which help neutralize free radicals, while Manuka Honey contains anti bacterial properties to hel
