LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #4 - August 2020


Last month’s box was the Sunkissed Edition and this month we have the Radiance Edition with a coral and pink box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £55.00 altogether and there are two variants of boxes available this month. I received Variant 1, which just has a couple of different products to the ones in Variant 2 (this is apparently due to high demand of subscribers).

Here is what I received this month:-

AHAVA Deadsea Water Mineral Body Lotion
| 40ml - £8.00 |
This body lotion is supposed to be deeply hydrating and fast absorbing. It is also supposed to soften and smoot your skin, leaving your skin feeling revitalised refreshed and restored. I have said many times before; I do not like body lotions! I received a body butter last month and haven’t used that, so I probably won’t use this one either. It sounds great, but it is just not something I would appreciate using.
| Full Size: 250ml - £23.49 |

PERCY & REED Perfectly Perfecting Wonderbalm
| 30ml - £8.00 |
This hair primer is supposed to make your hair more manageable and add moisture, shine and definition. I’ve also previously said that I am not into hair products. I don’t currently feel as though I have need of this product. Should the need arise; I would consider giving it a go. I feel my hair is in good enough condition at the moment and I don’t usually struggle with styling. I actually wish my natural waves/slight curls (when my hair has naturally dried from being washed) were stronger and would last being slept on so I didn’t have to straighten it the day after washing it.
| Full Size: 75ml - £18.00 |

MIO Sun-Drenched Body Wash
| 30ml - £3.15 |
This body wash is supposed to deeply hydrate your skin. It contains Indian Fig Extract and Monk’s Pepper Berry, which are supposed to give you an instant soothing effect. It does smell citrusy which is quite nice. I do enjoy a good smelling body wash.
| Full Size: 200ml - £19.00 |

EYEKO Black Magic Mascara
| 4ml - £10.00 |
This mascara has a curved brush which is supposed to help you coat every lash and give you drama and curl. I have heard of this mascara before and I am interested in trying it. When I try it, I will probably do a ‘Serial Sampler’ post on it.
| Full Size: 8ml - £19.00 |

bellápierre Mineral Blush in Amaretto
| 6g - £15.00 |
This mineral blush is supposed to give you a natural healthy flush of colour. Amaretto is a rosy nude shade. This is a loose blush and it appears to have a little shimmer in it. I am not into loose powder products as they can be messy and I also do not like shimmer in my blushes, I love a good matte one. The shade is also not one I would currently wear; I am into light peaches and soft pinks. I will pass this product along to someone who will appreciate it.
| Full Size: 4g - £19.00 |

CAUDALIE Vinoperfect Radiance Serum
| 10ml - £15.33 |
This facial serum is full of Viniferine, which is apparently more effective than Vitamin C. It is also scientifically proven to lighten dark spots in four weeks. I have received a sample of this in a subscription box before, but I never used it. I will give it a go this time as I am in to trying different facial serums at the moment. I was also considering purchasing a full size bottle of it not that long ago, when I finished up my Charlotte Tilbury Magic Serum.
| Full Size: 30ml - £46.00 |
Overall, it is a good box but I will most likely only use half of the products I received! I will give the body wash, mascara and serum a go, but that will be it. I really do not like body lotions or hair care products. My box this month is worth £59.48. Again, I am staying subscribed for now and there is actually a sneak peek for next month’s box.

The Sneak Peek for September’s Box is that you should receive a 15ml tube of the ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Marine Cream (worth £30.00).

Glossybox #25 - February 2019

This is my third Glossybox since I re-subscribed last year. It is also the Valentine’s Day themed box. I would say that so far, this box seems to be the one most tailored to my usual interests. I received seven products in this box, technically six because two go hand in hand. HUDA BEAUTY Lip Contour in Venus This lip pencil formula is supposed to be waterproof and transfer-free. It should glide on effortlessly and give your lips an intense shot of colour. You can use it to contour or colour your lips or pair it with a lipstick. Venus is a warm beige nude shade. It glides onto your lips very easy, but it feels a little tacky when you fill your whole lips in with it. I’m not sure how often I would use this seeing as though I have never used lip liner. I prefer liquid lipsticks and I don’t feel the need to line my lips before applying it. | 1.20g - £16.00 | NAILS INC Nail Varnish in Status Ready This nail polish should be long lasting and super glossy. It is a deep che

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Jawbreaker Palette

I bought this palette back when it first launched (summer 2019) and I was interested in it so I could experiment more with bright colours. The colour selection definitely doesn’t disappoint and I was expecting it to be the same quality as the Blood Sugar Palette, if not slightly better! The packaging is quite a large rectangular shape and made out of metallic pink cardboard with colourful dots/dashes all over representing a jawbreaker pattern. The name of the palette is in a slightly raised font. It has a magnetic closing which you lift to reveal the twenty-four eyeshadow pans arranged on a white background. The other side is the same pattern as the front cover with a mirror. You can purchase it for £54.00 ($58.00) from JeffreeStarCosmetics.com and BeautyBay.com. You get twenty-four 1.50g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Shimmer (S) and Metallic (ME) finishes. Swatch Stencil: Stripes Double 14 Pan by SwatchPerfect.co.uk Virgin - bone white (M) Good Morning - soft pink

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shimmer
