April beauty box by Look Fantastic: What’s in the box?

Is it me, or has Look Fantastic really upped their game recently with the design of their beauty boxes?! Last month’s beauty box was beautiful, and then it gets topped (and beaten) with this April beauty box!

Product wise, I’ll be honest, while there are a couple of lovely products included this month, overall the selection hasn’t excited me hugely.

Lately I am finding I am getting duplicates of products (and never the ones I want seconds of), but that’s not to say I haven’t discovered some real gems during my 12-month subscription to Look Fantastic, the February box particularly was a real highlight of late.

Let’s have a look at the products featured in the Look Fantastic April beauty box:

Look Fantastic Beauty Box | October & November

Hey Sweeties,

First of all I have to apologise as I failed to upload a review of last month’s beauty box, but in my defence, I was away for most of it in America and I didn’t want to post without actually giving some/all of the products a proper trial. So if you’ll forgive me, I have included both the October and November Look Fantastic Beauty Box in this post. Here goes –

October Box

Look Fantastic October beauty box

Contents: Elemis Hydra-Balance Day Cream; Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser; Percy & Reed Smoothed, Sealed and sensational No Oil Oil; (not pictured) Nuxe Rêve De Miel Hand & Nail Cream; Monu Firming Moisturiser; Look Good Feel Better (LGFB) Eye shading brush; and Balance Me radiance Face Mask.

Firstly I have to highlight that the Balance Me radiance face mask wasn’t featured within the supporting booklet that accompanies the box each month, which makes me wonder if this is a rogue item that snuck its way in? As yet I haven’t tried this product out but while I have been vocal previously about getting a little bored with this brand constantly arriving in my boxes, I like that it’s a face mask to try out that isn’t in one of those annoying sachets.

I was pleased to see in this box a variety of creams and moisturisers to try out and even though the Elemis day cream and the Monu firming moisturiser are nice to use, I personally find them too scented for my liking. Some won’t mind this and the scents definitely aren’t bad but I just prefer something very subtle if at all in these types of facial products.

As soon as the box arrived and I viewed the contents, I whipped out the Nuxe hand & nail cream and put it straight in my purse, hence why it missed being photographed. However it is a lovely product that is nice to apply and leaves your hands moisturised without being left sticky. It is also very lightly scented which on your hands is completely fine and a nice feature.

I have also really enjoyed the Murad exfoliating cleanser as it is not as harsh as others I use. When I say ‘harsh’ I don’t imply this negatively as once or twice a week it’s good to exfoliate the skin, but this one from Murad feels much gentler.

LGFB “is the only worldwide cancer charity providing practical support for women and teenagers struggling with the visible side effects of their cancer treatment. 12% from all sales of this brush collection will be donated to the charity.” This eye shading brush from their range is a total delight to use and so soft. The handle is also the perfect size to sit comfortably in your hand. I have actually recently started seeing these brushes appear in various TK MAXX stores so if you see them yourself they would be well worth a go; not to mention that you would be supporting a great cause at the same time.  View Full Post

The Glamour Summer Edit Beauty Box

Hey Sweeties,

As I mentioned in last week’s Tuesday post, I have treated myself to the Latest in Beauty Glamour Summer Edit beauty Box. Until recently (winning) a subscription to Look Fantastic, it’s been a while since purchasing a beauty box although I get emailed about them all the time! Sometimes I find that while it’s good to be exploring new brands and products, unless they really are outstanding they just fall to the back of my makeup drawer(s) and clutter unnecessarily. However, from time to time there will be a box that is just too good to miss and this is exactly the case for this box.
