Welcome ladies - hope you find this thread a happy place to chat about Beauty Boxes and, occasionally, other beauty-related things! :T


If anyone wants to post a list (or photo if you like) of what was in the SSB and LIB boxes this month, then it would help out those folk who don't subscribe and haven't got the time or patience to Google (ie me mostly :rotfl: )

Enjoy!

Thanks for the welcome!!

I did snap my SSB earlier (but in the box). I can share if nobody minds seeing the contents so soon?

Hi Sawan! :wave:

Thank you for the warm welcome, Purple Butterfly

This is what I received in my LiB box:

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish (30ml + muslin cloth)

Percy & Reed No-fuss Flawlessness Dry Conditioner (50ml)

Elie Saab Le Parfum (1ml EDP)

L'Occitane Immortelle Brightening Hand Care SPF15 (15ml)

Nails Inc Porchester Square Nail Polish (10ml, full size)

Elemis Pro-Collagen Body Cream (50ml)

Benefit The POREfessional (7.5ml - some people got the Weleda moisturiser instead)

Mont Blanc Legend Eau De Toilette (1.2ml)

I was really pleased with this box :j

I think that a photo of the SSB box would be nicer than a list

(For anyone curious about variations, my Inika Lip Whip is Apricot, the Natio soap is Pink Lotus and my false lashes are called Connie)

have now put latest two boxes in the cupboard,having taken out stuff I want to use soon(am intrigued by the dry conditioner as sounds very useful for my dry curly hair)lippy/nail polish go into another bag and have put all items into the SSB box as it is bigger,now have several boxes for gifts:)(using stuff from boxes i will not use)
did try the SSB ?body regenerating/renewing comfort cream?...sorry forgot proper name and now thrown away,put it on lats night before bed then lay there with skin stinging:eek::eek::eek::eek:
get annoyed with SSB esp as some of the skincare prices are incredible!!!but do like the fact I can review stuff to get points,only thing is my 3 months sub now finished so can't review any more unless I re sub:(.....really should not do so as loads of stuff in the stash inc 4 lots of Liz Earle cleanse/polish from boxes and mag freebies!

Hello everyone!

I'm over here from no buying toiletries too

I'm an amarya and LIB girl, ditched the rest when we started getting repeat products and GB sent out the boxes with horrific price differences for what the contents were worth.

lol ok!

we really should just move the no buying toiletries naughty step to here, the boxes are our downfalls!

I agree! :rotfl:

(To the regulars on this thread, sorry about the invasion. We're really very friendly and well-meaning...:rotfl:)

I never bothered to buy the Latest in Beauty for this month. It was excellent, but was tempted by their luxury samples. One item that stood out (for me) was the Alfresco Beauty Without Bites Duo for £5; the spray alone from that kit retails at £30 for a set of 4 (see here), so is great for those of us who get bitten but don't want to smother ourselves from head to toe in chemicals.

I also ordered a Mont Bleu Mini Glass Nail File for £2.50 (instead of £5), plus a Balance Me Rose Otto Body Wash £2.00 (instead of £3.50 for trial size), an ARK Age Maintain Mini Kit (little 2ml samples of 4 products, but still a nice way to try), and Melvita Naturalift Youthful Skin Cream £3 (sample cost £9), so am pleased with what I bought.

I will try to sit on my hands...soon. :D

Balance Me Rose Oto is nice - not quite as nice as REN Rose Otto in my opinion but very very close.

Please let me know what the Melvita cream is like - I've often been tempted by the brand but haven't tried anything yet.
