LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #8 - December 2020

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:-   PERCY & REED Reassuringly Firm Session Hold Hairspray | 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. | Full Size: 250ml - £12.50 |   Jecca Blac Glow Drops in Champagne | 20ml - £1...

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #7 - November 2020

Last month’s box was the Retreat Edition and this month we have the Firecracker Edition with a berry and orange themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether! I also received a free aftershave sample. The box quote this month is: “ Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire ”.   Here is what I received this month:-   ThisWorks Perfect Legs Skin Miracle | 30ml - Can’t find price! | This is a lightly tinted serum, enriched with Vitamin C and E. It is supposed to give you a sun-kissed glow. You should massage it into dry skin. It does say you can use it all over your body, not just on your legs. This is not the sort of product I would be interested in trying. | Full Size: 120ml - £38.00 |   Polȧar Ice Pure Micellar Water with Artic Cotton | 50ml - Can’t find price!   | This cleansing micellar water should remove stubborn make-up and bring hydration and moisture to your skin without drying or tightening it. I already use a...

Graze - Box #21

I received this box on Friday 14 th August. I was hoping to get the lemon cookie packet in this box as I have been longing to try them since I re-subscribed. Here is what I received in this box:- Cocoa & Hazelnut Pretzel Dipper - Lightly salted pretzel sticks with a cocoa & hazelnut dip (142kcal) | Contains: Soya, Milk, Tree Nuts & Gluten | I’ve had this packet numerous times before. I most recently received it in Graze Box #16 . I do like this packet. | Link - https://www.graze.com/2795/cocoa-hazelnut-pretzel-dipper | Lively Lemon Fibre Flapjack - Wholegrain oat flapjack with zesty lemon curd & yoghurt drizzle (247kcal) | Contains: Soya, Gluten, Milk & Eggs | I’ve had this packet numerous times before.

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #6 - October 2020

I was hoping to have posted about this last Thursday, but it took a while for my box to arrive. There was an issue with some people’s subscriptions and it mean’t some orders were not generated for existing subscribers. The issue was corrected and I have now received my box. Last month’s box was the Birthday Edition and this month we have the Retreat Edition with an indigo themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether! Here is what I received this month:- GLOV Hair Wrap | £14.99 | This hair towel is made of from microfibres, which means it is gentler for your hair. I use a hair wrap towel every time I wash my hair, so this will come in very handy. I usually prefer darker colour towels as white ones look grubby after a while. | Full Size - £14.99 | ECOOKING Overnight Foot Cream | 30ml - £8.10 | This foot cream is supposed to remove dead skin as well as moisturise. It works best overnight and it is recommend that you wear socks over the cr...

Graze - Box #20

I received this box on Tuesday 11 th August. I was hoping for the last cookie packet as I really want to try the lemon cookies. Once I have tried them, I am thinking of cancelling my subscription! Here is what I received in this box:- Pepped Up Nutty Protein Power - Black pepper cashews and almonds, roasted cashews & redskin peanuts (221kcal) | Contains: Tree Nuts & Peanuts | The black pepper cashews have a really nice peppery flavour, which isn’t too strong. The roasted cashews are nice, there’s not really a roasted flavour though. The almonds are lovely. They taste a little sweet but you do get the black pepper flavour. The black pepper was stronger tasting on the cashews. I think I still prefer the smoked almonds though. The redskin peanuts are kind soft and dry. They kind of taste of leaves, they are not very pleasant at all. | Link - https://www.graze.com/1775/pepped-up-nutty-protein-power | Salt & Pepper Veggie Protein Power - Sea salt ...

Graze - Box #19

I received this box on Tuesday 4 th August. I got another cookie packet, which I am really happy about! Here is what I received in this box:- Cocoa Cookies - Cocoa cookies with special blend black tea (97kcal) | Contains: Milk & Gluten | This is my second Graze Cookie packet now. They do smell quite strong of cocoa, but they do not taste overly strong. They are quite nice and they do taste a bit like double chocolate chip cookies, which is good and there isn’t even any chocolate chips in them! | Link - https://www.graze.com/2712/cocoa-cookies-and-tea | Peanut Butter Protein Power - Wholesome peanut butter with salted pretzel sticks (138kcal) | Contains: Peanuts & Gluten | I have tried this packet before. I do not like peanut butter, so I didn’t try it, but I do like pretzels. They taste like regular breadsticks, but kind of roasted (pretzel) and lightly salted. I do like them. | Link - https://www.graze.com/2799/peanut-butter-protein-power | ...
