My First My Little Box
Tuesday, September 23, 2014Having mentioned that I'd succumbed to another beauty-through-your-letterbox subscription, I thought I'd do a quick review. This sticker on the inside of the outer packaging was an excellent start. Who can argue with Audrey Hepburn?
The box
Firstly, they sent me a sheet of stickers. Stickers. I'm not convinced that anyone over 17 will appreciate stickers but I might be wrong, personally I just thought 'what am I supposed to do with these?'.
The gift
As you can tell I wasn't blown away by either of these things.
The print
The products
The Stylo Lumiere is a highlighter with a pretty gold, subtle shimmer. I didn't get on with this at all, I couldn't apply it smoothly which was a little disappointing.
Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse is a multi-purpose dry oil and it smells divine! A few drops in my hair leaves it softer and smelling delightful. I also like to use this on my face and neck as a night moisturiser, I wake up looking fresh and hydrated (which is no mean feat) and my skin feels soft and smooth.
It's highly likely that I'll repurchase the primer and the multi-purpose oil.
The story
So, am I going to continue receiving them?
For now, absolument!

I love the branding - it's so cute and feminine.

I think the branding is absolutely spot on!
DeleteI love receiving beauty boxes and trying new products, unfortunately it can be a bit hit and miss. I always seem to get lipstick colours that I would never wear.
ReplyDeleteI found that changing the preferences in my profiles helped me to get products more suited to me.
DeleteIt seems a sweet idea though not somethibg id go for. How much is it then? X
ReplyDeleteIt's £15 a month x
DeleteI do love the branding of it to be honest but can agree about the stickers. At £15 a month its not to badly priced either.

I think it's a cute idea but the only thing I would have been that fussed about IS the stickers - I use them on my penpal letters all the time. I don't use beauty products so I wouldn't sign up for a box thing like this.
