    My JB has just arrived.

    Lov Organic Tea Bags (little box of 6) I don't mind the occasional non-beauty product, so not too fussed either way.
    Jason Bee Healthier Lip Balm Stick (full size) Always handy to have more lip balm in winter.
    MOA - Green Balm , tiny pot of multi purpose balm, this will go in my travel washbag.
    Ritessens Exfoliator (full size - cleanser is the other option costs about 20 euros). Got plenty of exfoliators in my cupboard.
    2 sachets of Iroisie BB cream


    I'm kind of in the middle with this box. At least it didn't have Balance Me in it, but it did mean I ended up with just some sachets of BB cream as some boxes do seem to have BM products
  • I got the exact same joliebxo as Kittykarate. I'm not blown away with it either, it's just kinda mehhh.

    Anti-ageing - can't wait for my questionnaires - how long after getting the products did you get yours??

    Collected mine from the post office this morning and worked out the value to about £240. Some lovely items and some that I'm not so keen on, can't wait till I get the questionnaires so I can start.

    Still no BB for me. Cheering myself up by opening stuff up from my stash! :D

    I've just re-subbed to Lux. I had to use a different email account else was glitchy, but used the promo code for a first box. Apparently there are 4 full-sized products next month (3 from the same company). Hoping I am in time to get their October box, as sounds promising.

    Amarya are now doing a personalised box for £27 (plus £2.50 p&p). I'm intrigued to know what type of products will be in them. I'm still subbed for £10 monthly so am content with that for now, and the occasional purchase. I want to take advantage of the free Santaverde cleansing gel worth £22 when £50 or more is spent on Santaverde products. Will be worth doing, as have nearly run out of the cleanser I got in my beauty box. Not sure when the promo is on until as can't really afford it just yet.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    I signed up for the anti-ageing one and I've got things for wrinkles, youth etc!

    Well I got my Jolie Box at the weekend and I really like it :)

    I got the same as kitty karate except I got the cleanser instead of the exfoliator, I think I would have preferred the exfoliator but its still a full size product so not too fussed!

    It was my first JB so I got a couple of extras as well which was a nice surprise, going to stick with JB for a few months I think!
    Addicted to MSE, I can't resist a bargain ;)
