This is my last LF Beauty Box as I have
now cancelled my subscription. If you read last month’s box unboxing post, you
will know why. Last month’s box was the Firecracker Edition and this month we
have the Christmas Edition with a black and gold themed box. The six items
inside the box should be worth over £135.00 altogether!
The box quote this month is: “Merry
Christmas with love from the Beauty Box Team”.
Here is what I received this month:-
| 50ml - £6.00 |
This hairspray should be ultra-fine, humidity resistant and it should provide a flexible but firm hold. I was looking at trying a new hairspray anyway. I currently use a TRESemmé one and it makes my hair feel a little crispy if I use too much. I am hoping this one is different as it says it is ultra-fine. I only tend to use hairspray when I curl or wave/crimp my hair.
| 20ml - £16.00 |
This face primer is supposed to prepare and brighten your complexion with a natural healthy glow, ready for you to apply your foundation. You can also use it alone or as a subtle highlighter. This isn’t really a product I would use. I don’t often use face primer and I prefer powder highlighters. It does seem like a nice product, there is a chance I would use it alone without make-up to give my skin a little pick me up.
| Full Size: 20ml - £16.00 |
| 10ml - £98.00 |
This eye cream is infused with hyaluronic acid and sea water to fight signs of ageing, deliver long-lasting moisture and combat the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, and eye bags for a youthful glow. You can use it in the morning and evening. I really can’t believe how much this eye cream is worth! I will be giving it a go when I have finished up my current eye cream, but I know I will not re-purchase it as the price is crazy for an eye cream.
| Full Size: 10ml - £98.00 |
| 10ml - Can’t find price! |
This serum contains hyaluronic acid and panthenol (vitamin B5). It is supposed to give you long-lasting hydration for a plumper and smoother complexion. I do like trying different serums, so this will be the next one for me to try before I use the Clarins Double Serum I purchased.
| Full Size: 30ml - £40.00 |
| 1.2g - Can’t find price! |
This cream eyeshadow is supposed to be creamy, buildable and easy to blend. The shade is a rose gold with silver flecks. This is a random edition. You can’t buy these eyeshadows in singles, they are only available in palettes and those palettes are no longer available. It kind of seems like this was included as they had a stock of samples they wanted rid of!
| Full Size: Can’t find information! |
| £3.99 |
This double-ended brush has a shader brush on one end and an angled eyeliner brush on the other end. The bristles are synthetic and are kind of stiff, which is what I like in precision use brushes.
| Full Size - £3.99 |
This box did arrive a little later than usual this month. I
love the box design and there is a good range of products. They are a few items
I won’t use, but I am happy with the ones I can try out. I am glad that I still
went ahead with my subscription cancellation though. I also still have ten days
of my LF calendar unboxing, so there will be more products for me to try. I’m
not sure how much my box is worth this month as the edit leaflet didn’t include
any of the prices again, which is what happened last month too! Even with some
of the prices missing, if you add up the worth of products I actually found
prices for; it does already go over the £150.00 mark which isn’t bad at all.
The Sneak
Peak for January’s Box is that you should receive a 40ml tube of the SVR Hydraline Rich Intense Moisturising
Cream (worth £15.00).
