Look Fantastic Review // December 2016

Opening

With a great sense of excitement and anticipation I love receiving subscription boxes through the post. You never know what you are going to receive, apart from the monthly issue of Elle magazine which comes along with each box as an added bonus. Watch me open my first ever Look Fantastic box in the video at the bottom of this post, yet have a read of this post for a look in the latest Christmas box. I was astounded at some of the products in this months box as they are a great size and worth so much more than the box.

Buy your own Look Fantastic box here as either a one off, as a present for a friend or as a monthly subscription.

Illamasqua

I am already a fan of Illamasqua’s big range of eye shadows but didn’t realise they had products like this Hydra Veil. The packaging is lovely and very tactile. Not quite the full size that you can buy in the shops, yet a great full sample size to try out. This product is meant to be massaged all over your face to create an even complexion below your foundation.

Mellow Lipstick

I love this lipstick. I had never heard of Mellow before and I have struggled to find a UK stockist…do you know of one? Here is a link to the US online company. This lipstick is lovely and creamy and unlike a lot of lipsticks, it doesn’t dry out your lips at all.

Other Featured Products

CoQ10 + Caviar
I am yet to try this out because it is a sachet and I needed to photograph it before opening it. I personally prefer samples or products to come in a package that you can open and close and use more than once. Yet, this being said, this product is actually full sized and what you would normally get in the shops and is super cool concept once you realise what it is. The product is actually a face mask in the form of sheet which is infused with a serum and you place on your face.

Balance Me Face Wash
This face wash smells incredible and is full of natural ingredients with no awful parabens or petroleum or anything icky in it. Perfect make up remover for anyone with sensitive skin.

Philip Kingsley Elasticizer
You can use this Philip Kingsley pre shampoo treatment in the shower when you are washing your hair. The liquid formulation is highly concentrated and great for any hair which has seen better days.

Date Night Box Unboxing

How long has it been since you and your partner had a proper date…without your phones? For Liam and I as freelancers we do not stop working. My mum even said to us the other day that we need to chill out! When Date Night sent me a box through the post I was overwhelmed and excited. One of the first things it says in the box is to turn off your phones. Date Night is a subscription box yet you can also gift it and but it one off therefore not tying you in to anything. I think it would be the perfect gift to send to a friend who has just had a child and may be feeling all kinds of exhaustion and possibly needs a little couple time with her partner.

The Opening

The box is quite big so when I received the package through the post I was as excited as a child on Christmas morning. The first thing that I noticed once I opened the box was the sheer amount of goodies that came in the box. The box by the way is gorgeous. It is a big classy black box with a magnetic closure…I will definitely be reusing the box. The cards within the box which describe and guide you through what to do and also personalised. There in big bold stylised letters were mine and Liam’s names, it is little touches like this which make it all the more wonderful. There is also a card which is specific to each box which has a quote scrawled on in Pinterest style writing which is calling out to be framed. Anyone who knows me, knows that I love to frame quotes and put them above my desk.

The Goodies

Our box was focused around a spa experience and was full of lovely products which included handmade chocolates and a divine rose petal bath bomb. All of the products were wrapped in black and each package was labelled with a number to match to its corresponding envelope which helped guide you through the romantic evening. A couple of my favourite products within the box…
Yuyo Tea
This tea smells incredibly intense and strong and tastes delicious, it works a treat to help perk you up for your date night. The heady scents of garden mint essential oils are probably the reason why I am in love.  Yuyo tea is the brainchild of a lovely couple who have been inspired by their travels across the Caribbean seas.
Chilly B Soap
This rose petal bath bomb is the perfect accompaniment to a romantic bath. The petal delicately float across your bath and surround you with the gorgeous scent of roses. Best of all these bath balls are hand made ensuring your bath is natural and chemical free.
