  • I'd like to start with beauty boxes but I'm not sure which one to go for. I'd like a natural one but I don't like the sound of Amarya's boxes. Are there any other good natural (chemical free) ones people have tried? Any advice is appreciated
  • This thread has gone very quiet. Are you all reindeer hunting on hukd too?:D

    (Why doesn't MSE ever give us any comps, aside from the paperback giveaways?)

    As far as I know Amarya is the best bet for a natural box. Most of the others put out natural boxes every now and then, you'd just have to keep an eye out. There are a lot of natural product fans here so they're usually mentioned when they come up.

    Two new LIB boxes added today; Party Prep and Pampering.
    Looks like things that were in the advent calenders.

    Well my Amarya December box arrived today. This is the one i decided to get to cheer me up as BB was so late. Lets say i wish i hadn't bothered...i got
    Sophyto purifying silken cleanser, sophyto balancing daily moisturizer,omega daily moisturizer all 15ml a 5ml Neom tranquillity bath oil and a 1ml vial sample of undergreen white classic edition. In my opinion not a patch on last years box

    Also re subbed 3 months to Joliebox,have a funny feeling i may also regret this.

    I'm not peeking at Amarya spoilers, as haven't received mine yet. A bit of a mixed reaction going by the facebook page.

    Lux have changed their payment system so all existing subscribers will have to re-sub, but there's a 10% discount code off Decembers box.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    :eek: I haven't got mine yet. I hope they haven't ripped it apart to make beauty boxes!!
  • Anyone know how much luck I'll have getting a refund from GB for the December box, seeing as it hasn't dispatched yet? Surely I'd be entitled to a full refund?

    I received my Amarya box, I liked mine despite having a surfeit of two of the products. Two of my products differed from rondacon's.
    I received Sophyto's Dual Action Exfoliating treatment (15ml) http://www.amarya.co.uk/index.php/brands/sophyto-skin/sophyto-dual-action-exfoliating-treatment.html instead of the cleanser, and Neom's Real Luxury bath oil. I'm pleased with my selection, and have wanted to try Neom for a long time (even if it is one use! :D)

    The moisturiser's were both Sophyto's Balancing, and Omega varieties. I have loads of creams in my stash, but look forward to trying, and I liked the Undergreen perfume sample. :)

    Mine was definitely worth the £10 paid.

    I would have thought so. As long as you have proof you emailed them before the despatch emails came out you should be fine.
