Love Lula Beauty Box - December

-

The last beauty box of the year is here from Love Lula, and is packed full with some fab products. 

Worth a total of £51 The box contains 3 full sized products and 2 deluxe travel sizes. 

First up from PHB is the 2-in-1 Shampoo & Body Wash (£12, 300ml) Handmade with natural foamers to refresh & mositurise the skin. Oatmilk & Argan Oil complex boosts hair strength, adds softness & vitality whilst soothing the scalp. This is a scent free wash so great for sensitive skin types or anyone prone to reaction from fragrance. I'm happy to see something from this brand in the box as it's not one we see very often. One thing I'm not keen on is the packaging as the opening at the top of the bottle is very large so a lot of product comes out at once. This is something to keep an eye out for if buying this product.

Another brand I'm pleased to see is The Castilian Soap Company. I love the citrus scent of this Lemongrass Natural Castile Soap (£8, 250ml) This multi-purpose soap is a must have product in every household. From washing hands to washing floors this soap does it all. The Lemongrass Essential Oils give a refreshing and uplifting scent.

From Balm Balm is their Frankincense Light Facial Oil (£15.50, 30ml) which is just beautiful and perfect for the Holiday season. Apricot Kernel oil, Evening Primrose oil, Jojoba oil and Rosehip oils nourish, condition and protect the skin, while Frankincense and Grapefruit refresh and rejuvenate skin and smooth out fine lines. I have used other products from this range before and all have been lovely, Frankincense is one of my favourites from Balm Balm.

Lastly are 2 products from Madara. A 17ml sample of Madara Active AHA Brightening Peel Mask (£24, 60ml) Vitamin C from quince fruit, blended with hydrating lactic acid and soothing elderflower provides efficient exfoliation to remove dead skin cells. Skin is left smoother and more radiant looking. This is not a product suitable for sensitive skin. 

15ml sample of Time Miracle Hydra Firm Hyaluron Concentrate Jelly (£30, 75ml) With a superdose of multi-molecular Hyaluronic Acid, this luxurious, oil-free hydra jelly instantly quenches the skin for a firmer-looking and more youthful complexion. I have used this product before and love the jelly like consistency. My skin has been really dry recently so I'm happy to have a nice product to help add back some much needed hydration.

Look Fantastic Beauty Box - March Unboxing

Image
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
