LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #1 - September 2014

I was shopping on LookFantastic and I came across a page for their own beauty box, advertised for £15. Shipping would be free and the value of the box would exceed £50! There was a limited amount available and it let me pre-order the September box. I was expecting some make-up items, because from experience £50 doesn’t spread very far if you have an expensive taste in cosmetics and thought the box would have less expensive brands included.
The box itself is a lot like a Glossybox, but bigger and it feels more luxury. When you open it up it has the tissue paper and sticker fastening and when explored, reveals the selection of products. You also get product info cards, which tell you a bit about each product. I thought the box would be more exciting, but for an all beauty junkie, it would be a dream box. Here it what you get inside the LookFantastic Beauty Box for September 2014:-
ST TROPEZ SELF TAN Bronzing Mousse (50ml)
| £30.64 (240ml) - St-Tropez.com |
I can tell you straight away that this is a product I will not be using! I don’t use fake tan and I don’t see the need, I am pale and proud. My Sister on the other hand will love this.

thisworks Deep Sleep Pillow Spray (5ml)
| £16 (75ml) - thisworks.com |
I am excited to try this as I currently use the Planet Spa one and I find that they really help. This one does smell slightly different though.

Jurlique Herbal Recovery Advanced Serum (15ml)
| £45 (30ml) - Jurlique.co.uk |
I am always interested in trying new serums and this one smells lovely.

CAUDALÍE Divine Oil (15ml)
| £17.50 (50ml) - UK.Caudalie.com |
I’m sure I’ve had a sample of this before from another beauty box, but I can’t remember for definite. I think I will give this a go this time, as I don’t like the idea of oils for your face, but this product can be used for all over your body and in your bath.

KÉRASTASE Bain Satin 1 (80ml)
| £17 (250ml) - Kerastase-USA.com |
&
KÉRASTASE Lait Vital (75ml)
| £20 (200ml) - Kerastase-USA.com |
I am not interested in these at all! I don’t like trying hair care products and I prefer using 2-in-1 products for shampoo and conditioners. The shampoo slightly interests me, but not enough for me to give it a try.
This is a good box and I am glad that I have tried it. A box like this is mostly wasted on me because the brand/product range is brilliant, but I am a make-up girl and this is what this month’s box lacked! I will not buy October’s box, but I would recommend this service to anyone who loves skincare and hair care products. Knowing my luck October’s box will contain make-up!

What are your thoughts on this box?

Farewell!

Hello everyone, As you can see from the title of this post, I have decided to quit blogging!. Blogging has been a part of my life for over 11 years and I have enjoyed it a lot and it has also been a form of therapy for me. But it’s now time to leave, my life has evolved so much this last year and a half and I am now looking forward to exploring new things. I have also closed my blog e-mail address, Twitter account and Bloglovin account. I will be leaving up all of my posts, but I have turned off new comments. Take care and thank you for all your support over the years. ♥ ♥ ♥
