YOU Beauty Discovery Box Review - March 2014

-
I have received another great beauty box from YOU Beauty.  There were some great choices, but for me it was a bit of a no brainer, so I went for 2 cleansers.  Both were full size products and individually they are worth more than the subscription price for the box.  The box has a Best of British theme and here's what I received.


The first product that I picked was The Body Shop Camomile Sumptuous Cleansing Butter.  This has been on my wish list for a while, since it was featured on the Beauty Mouth blog.  This is 90ml and costs £12.   Its suitable for all skin types.  I also received a Muslin Cleansing Cloth from the Body Shop worth £2.50.  

The second product that I picked was BeautyLab Glyco Face Wash.  This is a skin refining oil-free 5% glycolic foaming gel with triggered release technology that removes impurities, unclogging pores, refining and cleansing.  I have not come across this brand before so I am interested in trying this product out. This costs £16 for 100ml.

In addition the box included a couple of extras, some Dragonfly teabags which pardon the pun are not my cup of tea.  I'm not a tea drinker and would prefer not to receive teabags in my beauty boxes.  I also received The Vintage Cosmetic Company toe separators worth £3.75.  These sort of things always come in handy so I have no complaints about this extra.

All in all I am really happy with my box and I can't wait to see what the options are for next month.  The theme for next month is Organic & Natural products.

 The other options for this box were:

 • Rimmel - BB Cream Matte, 8ml
• Crabtree & Evelyn - Rosewater Ultra-Moisturising Hand Therapy, 25g
• Aromatherapy Associates - Inner Strength Shower & Body Oil, 7.5ml
• Paul Mitchell - Dry Wash, 50ml
• John Frieda - Frizz Ease Original 6 Effects Serum, 25ml
• Dr Lipp - Lip Balm, 15ml
• Orico - TRANSCEND Marine Radiance Serum, 10ml

This box costs  £6.95 per month including postage, its an absolute bargain and its great that you can choose the 2 main products that you will receive.  If you want to subscribe you can get 3 months membership for the price of 2 right now.  Visit youbeautydiscovery.co.uk and enter code YBD342 at checkout.

Did you buy this months box?

Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

-
Image
I picked up the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer because it looked like it was a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. The Primark version costs £4.50 for 45ml and the Bobbi Brown Face Base costs £48.50 for 50ml, so there is quite a price difference.   I had always wanted to try out the Bobbi Brown product, so when I received a mini version in a gift with purchase goody bag I was really excited to try it out, but I have to say I was somewhat underwhelmed.  I have quite dry skin and the face base did not have as much slip as I was expecting, so it didn't feel smooth when I applied my foundation. For the price I was expecting to love it way more than I did. It does have a lovely lemon smell which I really enjoy, where as the Primark version doesn't really have a fragrance.  Overall, I actually preferred the Primark version as it is thicker and it made for a better base for my foundation. It also seemed to be more hydrating. I have defini...

I have wanted to get an LED Mask for ages but with prices for some of them at over £400 I just haven't been able to pull the trigger and buy one yet. So when I saw the LED Light Mask in Primark for £15 I just had to try it out.  The Primark version targets 3 different skin concerns with 3 different types of light sources.
