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....



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 for removing eye make up. I found this product deeply cleansed my skin without leaving behind any oily or greasy residue. A great addition to my skincare routine.

Ayumi Sandalwood 3-Step Haircare Routine

Firstly use the Bio Active Hair Growth Oil (£8.99, 100ml). This oil has a combination of ancient Ayurvedic remedies renowned for their hair strengthening properties and ability to minimise hair loss. Apply to hair strands, massaging into the scalp for 15-20 minutes, or alternatively leave on overnight to allow the oil to penetrate the hair and scalp. Rinse well before using the Argan & Sandalwood Hair Shampoo (£6.99, 250ml). Formulated for frequent use on all hair types, particularly for thin and weak hair. Finish off with the Argan & Sandalwood Conditioner (£6.99, 250ml). This conditioner thickens every strand, transforms condition and strength, and helps protect hair from breakage while restoring volume, shine and 

manageability.

I don't have fine or thinning hair, quite the opposite really but none the less I found this trio to leave my hair soft and shiny, and I love the sandalwood scent.

Madara Micellar Water (£9.10, 100ml)

This award winning all-in-one, no-rinse cleanser is ideal for daily use to remove make-up and impurities. It balances and hydrates even the most sensitive of skin in one single step, leaving behind clean, fresh and smooth skin. This 50ml size is perfect for travel as it doesn't take up much space in my toiletries bag.

Soul Tree Mascara - Pure Black (£16.99, 6g)

A lightweight mascara which doesn’t clump, so great for an everyday natural look. With the goodness of ingredients such as Castor Oil, Black seed oil and Aloe vera, it nourishes & hydrates your lashes while making them look beautiful and elongated.

I have yet to use this mascara as I don't like to have too many open at any one time, but I'm looking forward to trying it out soon.


What are your thoughts on this months box? Are you looking forward to seeing the changes coming or are you sad that Love Lula aren't continuing with the monthly subscription?

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

-

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
