Love Me Beauty Box Unboxing


Like most, I love receiving post, and so when I was greeted by the arrival of my first beauty box from Love Me Beauty, I was very excited to open and try out my new goodies as soon as possible!
Love Me Beauty allows you to hand-pick the contents of your beauty box, allowing you to sample full or travel sizes products that you actually want, for £10 a month. The products that I chose are as follows...



MONU Hydrating Moisturiser SPF15 30 ML (buy here
A handy moisturiser that is fragrant and hydrating for those spring days. Despite the inconvenience of the packaging, it is a great piece to try out to have in a make up bag, especially as it contains SPF15. You don't even have to think about suncream on those rare sunny days.

Organic Surge Deep Cleansing Face Mask (buy here)
A clear nourishing face mask that smells of rosemary and lemon essential oils. Wonderful to use to sooth your skin, especially for those with sensitive skin, leaving it soft, clear and deeply cleansed.

Nails Inc. Nail Polish in 'Upper Cheyne Row' (unavailable)
I've been dying for a light pink nail polish, so when I saw this available I had to get it.
A pastel pink that looks well against my fair skin and even lasted.

Nails Inc. Nail Polish in 'Howick Place' (unavailable) 
A grey nail polish, which considering all the above I got, I was happy to be able to receive two great nail polish colours that apply well from a great brand. Fab for a go-to nail polish.

CAILYN Cosmetics Dizzolv'it Makeup Cleansing Balm- (buy here
A balm that turns into oil! Crazy, but was impressed as this is the first one I have tried and would happily continue to use this or similar alternatives to conveniently and efficiently remove all my makeup, AND leave my face super soft!


Which of these products would you have chosen to purchase?

Lush Favourites #1

As a lover of Lush products, I always feel compelled to enter their store every time I pass one, which usually means that I'll end up purchasing something that's new or that I know I love. These are the products that I currently use and would happily repurchase...


1. Baked Alaska Soap (no longer available)
A seasonal soap released last Christmas, which is vibrant, lathery and fresh citrus based with the strong scents of lemon myrtle and grapefruit oil. My large quantity of this  amazing product will hopefully last me a long time!

2. Catastrophe Cosmetic Facial Mask (buy here
This calming fresh face mask that feels calming to my sensitive skin, packing with blueberries, calamine, chamomile, rose and almond oils; this leaves my skin feeling soft and calm. I would use this a lot more if it could last longer.

3. Mint Julips Lip Scrub (buy here
Mint chocolate chip lip scrub made from peppermint, vanilla and sugar crystals, which I find great and fun to use to remove any flaky skin.

4. Somewhere Over The Rainbow Soap (buy here
With looks very similar to Baked Alaska in colour, this soap however is a subtler lemon based scent, with the main ingredients sicilian mandarin oil, rose absolute and neroli oil. This is a great seasonal alternative, but its a shame this won't be around for long either.

5. Pink Fun (buy here)
With a scent similar to their Mmmelting Mashmallow Moment, I love using this as a soap when I want to use something sweet, or when possible play with it in the bath and use it as a bubble bar or soap, or both!

6. The Comforter Bubble Bar (buy here)
A fruity blackcurrent fragranced bubble bar smells amazing and is perfect to use for lots of bubbles. I wish this scent could be a soap too with the bergamont oil making this a fresh uplifting bar to use.

Which Lush products do you love using and will repurchase?
