The body mist is surprisingly nice; it's lightly moisturising and has a delicate, fresh rose scent as opposed to the synthetic fragrances you might get in other mists. I wouldn't pay the RRP of £28 for it, though if the boxes stay at £9 each I might consider stocking up and buying a second. I also have far too many face creams but at £9 for multiple products I can happily use these creams on other parts of my body too.

The Yves Rocher lipgloss looks pigmented in the tube, but it's actually quite sheer with very subtle shimmers. While it makes my lips look moisturised & juicy, I can't say I've noticed any "plumping" effects. It has a light fruity scent, isn't too sticky, staying power is average, which I don't mind. I would have preferred a pinker shade, but again given how much I paid for this box, I really can't complain.

Has anyone had an update from Beauty Bible? The last email I had in the first few days of January said boxes were being sent out near the end of the month and it's now a week into Feb.

I had an e-mail from BeautyBible 11/01 saying pack would be posted shortly - mine arrived the following week, (my husband had to collect it from the sorting office on the 19/01, I know since I was at the hairdressers & just checked the date, however I only got the questionnaires about 1 week ago.

Thanks PurplePea, I might email just to check up then.

In case some you didn't get an email from them, Selfridges is having a Valentines Beauty box.

I think I will pass, I am not really excited by the content and for 25£+shipping I would need to be! It is good value for money though. Not sure why they put 2 body lotions in it but anyway. Enjoy!:j

I would have been tempted by the Selfridges box if the lip glaze had been in a bolder shade, then it would have been worth it.

I received my LuxBox yesterday. It wasn't as impressive as last months fabulous box, but the contents are very good quality, and will use everything:

Dr Bragi, Age Management Moisturiser 5ml sample (RRP £120 50ml) - The full size is way out of my price range, so was very pleased to receive this (sample is worth £12)

John Masters Organics shampoo (Lavender Rosemary) & conditioner (Citrus & Neroli) 30ml each sample sizes (RRP £16 each - I've not tried these before, and they are apparently safe for coloured hair which would be great as I'm sick of 'natural' shampoos bleaching out my colour. The conditioner can also be used as a leave in product. I'm looking forward to trying it

Balm Balm lip balm (Rose Geranium), Full size (worth £3.99) - Glad I got this variation rather than the unscented one. It smells gorgeous and feels wonderful on my lips. I really like this product


Valuewise it is the lowest value that they have done. However it is a very nice box, with 4 items that I know I'll use, and already like, so I'm happy with what I received.

You must be amongst the last batch of testers, I've just received a reminder for my second lot of reviews due 14th February. I hope you get something nice!

I received my February Amarya box, and it is gorgeous, very apt for this month:

Mine contained a Dr Hauschka limited edition Rose Garden Kit (exclusive to Amarya). It comes in a handy reusable fabric toiletry bag, and contains:

Rose Day Cream 5g

Firming Mask 5g

Rose Body Oil 10ml

Rose Body Moisturiser 10ml

Hand Cream 10g

It also comes with a 20% off the Dr Hauschka range. It retails for £19.95, and as I only paid £10 I'm happy.

Also received a reply saying it'll be today or next week at the latest. I'm only doing green too. Rather excited to see what they include
