Latest In Beauty - My May Picks

-
I have been getting Latest in Beauty (LIB) on and off for 5 or 6 years now, more so recently as they have multiple products I've been tempted by! Each month you can choose from a selection of full sized and sample sized products. Products are added daily so always different things to choose from. They offer 3 different options - a 3 product box for £9, a 6 product box for £15 and a 9 product box for £18. I have gone for the 6 product box.

Here are my picks for this month...

As you can see I have a quite a few full sizes in there which is fab value for money!
I've gone for a mix of products to focus on the whole body.

Murad Age Reform AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser 200ml  £38 - The hall of fame product for May so I had to grab it. I have many products from this brand and you can't go wrong with Murad in my opinion.
Soaper Duper Fruity Green Tuberose Bod Scrub 250ml £9.50 - I have this scrub already but enjoy it so got another to add to my stash! why not?
Argentum La Potion Infinie Super Hydrating Body Cream 200ml £84 - This product sold out super fast and no wonder why, have you seen the price!! From French brand, this body lotion is presented in a sleek black bottle, which looks great on the dressing table, and smell divine!
Tisserand Aromatherapy Lavender & Chamomile Body Mist 100ml £8.95 - A great calming spray to use before bed or just to unwind in the evenings.
Little Butterfly London Blossoms in Spring Illuminating Day Cream 12.5ml £12 - This brand is specifically designed for expectant or breastfeeding mothers as it contains no nasties that may harm babies (whilst I am neither I can still enjoy it) Containing botanical extracts and vitamins to optimise skin rejuvenation, this is a lovely lightweight cream.
Balance Me Hyaluronic Plumping Mist 10ml worth £6 - Another brand I have used many times before. Used to brighten and balance skin, this mist will be the perfect size for travel or popping in the handbag to spritz whenever needed.

PureChimp Matcha Green Tea Review

-
Image
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
