LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #3 - July 2020


I re-subscribed to the LookFantastic Beauty Box in May and received my first box in June (Staycation Edition). I did enjoy that box so I decided to stay subscribed to see what July’s box (Sunkissed Edition) would have to offer. Last month’s box was a bag and this month we are back to the usual cardboard box. The six items should be worth over £65.00 altogether!

Here is what I received:-

MÁDARA Regenerating Night Cream
| 25ml - £17.00 |
This night cream is supposed to work best throughout the night, which is when your skin is best at repairing itself. It is supposed to help stimulate cell renewal, which should reduce fine lines and wrinkles. You should wake-up to brighter, more hydrated and more youthful-looking skin. I am interested in using this. I currently use a basic moisturiser at night, but I have been looking at upgrading to an actual night cream. I hope it is not too thick as I have used a night cream before and I could still feel it on my skin in the morning after applying it and my face felt a little congested, which is why I haven’t used a night cream since.
| Full Size: 50ml - £30.00 |

thisworks Morning Expert Hyaluronic Serum
| 10ml - £12.33 |
This serum is formulated with Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C, which is supposed to reinvigorate your skins luminosity. Dullness, dehydration and fatigue should appear reduced and your skin should look brighter over time. This serum is targeted for use as a morning skincare product. I am into trying serums at the moment, but I don’t currently use one in the morning. I will give this one a go and I can still use my current one at night as this one is for morning use.
| Full Size: 30ml - £37.00 |

MONUspa Rose & Lemon Enriched Body Cream
| 100ml - £16.65 |
This body cream is enriched with ultra-nourishing vitamins and essential oils to relieve dryness and help your skin to feel more firm. I don’t use body creams or lotions because I am too lazy to apply them, don’t feel I need to use them and I don’t really like the feel of them on my skin. This one does smell so nice and fresh and I think I might use it. I will probably just start using it on my arms only first and then see how I feel about it. I hope the scent lingers on your skin!
| Full Size: 180ml - £29.95 |

Sleek MakeUp Matte Me Lip Cream in Bittersweet
| 6ml - £4.99 |
This is a matte liquid lipstick in a mauvy coral pink shade. It is supposed to easily glide onto your lips, feel comfortable and last for hours. I have heard that these lipsticks are mean’t to be quite good. Bittersweet is definitely not my kind of shade at the moment, so I will be passing this along. I would look at ordering one in a more suitable shade in the future (brown or warm nude).
| Full Size: 6ml - £4.99 |

MYVITAMINS Beauty Sleep Capsules
| 30 Capsules - £7.50 |
These vitamins contain a blend of minerals and herbs designed to support your sleep and the health of your hair, skin and nails. You should take one capsule thirty minutes before you go to bed. You should consult Doctor or Healthcare Professional before taking these vitamins.  I’ve heard very mixed reviews of this product. Some people swear by them and others seem to have actual nightmares instead of a peaceful and restful sleep! I’m not keen on subscription boxes offering vitamins and in my opinion they shouldn’t be offered. I am slightly annoyed that this is one of the items I received! During the pandemic, I have been struggling to get to sleep (insomnia), so I may experience benefits from using these vitamins and I am also intrigued as to whether they would cause me to have nightmares. I dream every night, but I’ve never experienced a nightmare during my adult life. I take prescription medications, so I would definitely have to consult a HC professional before considering trying them. Although I said I was disappointed at having received them, I haven’t actually ruled out trying them unless I am medically unable to do so.
| Full Size: 60 Capsules - £16.99 |

So Eco Blush Brush
| £7.50 |
This blush brush is made from sustainable materials and it is also vegan and cruelty-free. You can use it with powder or cream products. The bristles are very soft and it is slightly larger than I would normally use to apply my blush, but I will give it a go. I am mostly interested in trying it with my bronzer. You can use it to apply any face/base products really, although I wouldn’t recommend it for applying highlighter.
| Full Size - £7.50 |

Overall, I received another good box but it is skincare heavy like the previous one, but I am glad that there are no hair products! I won’t use the liquid lipstick because it is not a shade I currently wear and I am still undecided on the vitamins. My box this month is worth £65.97. I am staying subscribed, so I can’t wait to see what I receive next month.

Serial Sampler #16

I have a mascara sample I would like to share with you today. It is  False Lashes Extreme Black  by  MAC  and it is a 1g sample of the full size mascara. It is supposed to make your lashes appear thick, voluminous and full feathered with its ultra-thickening carbon black pigment mousse like formula. It should also lengthen, curl and separate your lashes and it should be long wearing, flake proof and smudge proof. This mascara does add quite a bit volume to your lashes, as well as length, separation and definition. It also slightly curls the tips of your lashes. I’m not sure if the ultra-thickening formula and carbon black pigment really adds anything extra and I wouldn’t say that it really gives you a full feathered look. It was easy to apply and after a couple of coats you are good to go. The effects do last all day, it is smudge-proof but not flake proof and I do like the small thin and precise brush. I did enjoy using this mascara and I would be int...

Birchbox #2 - July 2014

This is my second ever Birchbox (arrived yesterday) and I was interested to see if it beat last month’s box. I got another free lifestyle extra, so I am assuming you get one every month! Here is what I received this month:- Models Own Nail Polish in Sparkler | £5 – ModelsOwnIt.com | This is my first ever Models Own nail polish and it is from the Fireworks collection. It looks like a very pretty top coat, but I’m not sure if I would actually use it. Only time will tell! Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream | £20 (15ml) – BalanceMe.co.uk | I have owned a lip balm from this brand before and this eye cream does sound interesting. I will give it a go because I am always on the lookout for a new/different eye cream. LAQA & CO Lip Lube in Menatour | £14.95 (full size) – LAQAandCO.co.uk | I have never heard of this brand before and this product looks very interesting. It is a cute mini size and the colour is a bright purple. It is not something I would typically we...
