Love Lula Beauty Box - September

-
It is hard to believe we are almost at the end of September already... this year is really flying in! September's Love Lula Beauty Box* contains 4 products, 3 of which are full size, and has a combined value of £58! Fantastic value seeing as the box only costs £14.95 to buy if you have a monthly subscription or £19.95 for a one off box. Full details of subscriptions can be found here. Also included in every box every month is a generous 20% off discount code for the brands featured in that months box.


Let's take a look to see what we have this month.


Glossworks Cuticle Balm (£12)
This uniquely formulated balm is the essential pampering solution for the cuticle. It uses only the purest natural ingredients, including Borage seed oil, Calendula flower oil, Jojoba oil, and shea nut butter enriched with vitamin E. This balm has an incredible lemon scent which I just want to eat... But I won't! Cuticles are left soft, nourished and protected.

Ere Perez Cacao Lip Colour in 'Sway' (£21)
A vegan lip butter featuring star ingredient cacao butter to soften and hydrate lips, plus castor oil to moisturise and help fight the signs of aging. I love the Mauve/Nude colour of this lip butter, which gives sheer coverage and is easily wearable for any occasion.

Ayumi Sandalwood & Ylang Ylang Face Cream (£6.99)
This luxurious cream is full of essential oils such as sandalwood, frankincense, sage, patchouli and jasmine. With the help of sea kelp and aloe vera skin is left feeling hydrated and moisturised. I personally prefer the Neem range from this brand but do like the sandalwood scent of this day cream so I will use it.

Madara Time Miracle Total Renewal Night Cream (£18)
Formulated with MÁDARA’s proprietary CELL REPAIR BIO-COMPLEX and rejuvenating Northern Birch juice, this fast-absorbing night-time moisturiser instantly softens, hydrates and recharges the skin, continuing to work overnight to rebuild dermal collagen and elastin fibres and activate cell processes for smoother, rested and radiant skin. I have just finished my current night cream so it's perfect timing to get this one in the box. The cream applies well and absorbs quickly, so no waiting around before jumping into bed.



Overall a great box! It is a toss up for the favourite between the cuticle balm and the lip colour. I love them both so can't decide.

Did you get a box this month? What is your favourite product?

Look Fantastic Beauty Box - March Unboxing

It has been ages since I've bought a Look Fantastic Beauty Box but after seeing some spoiler pictures on Facebook I decided to use my glossy credits to get this months box. Normally the box cost £15 including postage, with my glossy credits it took the price down a little to £9.35. The box this month is has a lovely white and blue design on top with a pinky purple base, which I will be keeping and reusing. It also comes with a copy of the latest Elle Magazine. From Rituals is Cherry Blossom & Rice Milk Soothing Hand Balm  70ml (£9.50)- a lovely floral lotion made with Shea Butter and Organic Rice Milk, the lotion replenishes and rejuvenates hands. Rituals are always a welcome brand I enjoy getting in boxes. Eos Lip Balm  7g (£6.50) in Strawberry Sorbet - Not actually a brand I've used before, but a handy balm to have in the makeup bag. Probably not something I would take out and about with me as I find the shape awkward for travel, I prefer small stick balms. This ba

Great weather calls for great sun protection with Alteya Orgaincs

-
Image
I'm loving the great weather we've been having so far this week....has summer finally arrived!? With temperatures up to 30 degrees in Scotland and soaring up to 38 in parts of England by Thursday, sun protection is a MUST if you are planning to leave your house even if all you do is sit in your garden. Really you should be using an SPF product daily regardless of the weather...yes even if its raining! As an outdoor worker (postwoman) a good SPF is top of my list all year round but especially at this time of year! Alteya Organics Whole Body Sunscreen * (£13.40 for 90ml) is enriched with emollient botanical butters and oils to hydrate the skin and protect against damaging UVA and UVB sun rays which cause sunburn and premature aging. So what is SPF and why do we need it? SPF or sun protection factor measures the level of protection a product will give you and how much longer it will take your skin to burn when wearing sunscreen vs not wearing sunscreen. Alteya's Whole

Sukin Blemish Control Kit

My skin is quite prone to spots and blemishes so I really wanted to find a product that would help to control breakouts and reduce the redness I have. I've used Sukin products before but never knew they had a blemish control range until recently. The  Sukin Blemish Control Kit * (£19.95) contains 4 products to help calm and clear the skin, three are 50ml and one is 15ml so decent sized samples, and handy for travelling with. Clearing Facial Wash purifies the skin while removing dirt and impurities with Quince and Pomegranate. Pore Perfecting Toner refines and refreshes the skin with Eucalyptus, Tea Tree and Mint. Spot Banishing Gel helps to fight breakouts with Willowherb, Salicylic Acid and Eculyptus, while the  Oil Free Moisturiser clarifies and balances the skin with Willowherb, Quince and Moringa. Willowherb is said to fight the causes of blemishes in just 30 minutes! And while I didn't see a huge improvement that quickly, I did notice a big difference withi
