My Beauty Box is a monthly subscription box in my home country, Slovenia. I am a big fan of beauty sample boxes, because I get to test out new things which is amazing and they are usually very reasonably priced. This one in particular costs 12 euros plus shipping, so it amounts to 15 euros. And you also get points with every purchase to use for upcoming purchases.
The theme of this months box is Eco beauty so it consists of organic, vegan and bio beauty products. The card that comes with the box says you get 2 makeup products, but I think there are actually 3 because to me an eyeshadow primer is a makeup product. I love love love getting makeup items in boxes like this one, because makeup is my main interest. I also have a passion for skincare but skincare can be really tricky since what works for me might not work for you.
Here are the items you get in the box:
- Lavera Eyeshadow Base 9ml
- Lily Lolo Star Dust Illuminating Shimmer 0.75g
- Khadi face and body oil 10ml
- Lavera Soft Lipliner in Plum
- Farfalla Mini Shampoo 30ml
- Weleda Creamy Body Wash 20ml
I will start with my favourite thing from this lot. It is the Weleda Creamy Wash in the scent citrus. In the previous box I got the rose scent and in this box I got a citrus one. Usually I hate scents like this but this one is perfect and it really reminds me of L'oocitane citrus body wash which I also love. My skin is really dry and this does not dry it out in the shower plus it makes me smell amazing. The full price of this body wash is 8,99 euros for 200ml on the website I linked.
The next thing I love from this picture is the Farfalla Shampoo Chestnut- Jojoba. Now here is the thing, I try to use as little shampoo as I can, meaning that I wash my hair mostly with my conditioner and not with a shampoo. I use shampoo once a week and I have been searching for a substitute for the one I use right now, because I wanted something without sulphates.(I will do a post about all of this soon) And this is a perfect pick for that. It is hydrating but it is also great at washing out all the gunk that has gathered in my hair. The price for 200ml is 9,99 euros, which for the amount I use is perfect.
The last thing in the picture is the Khadi Body and Face oil . Honestly I do not have much to say about this one, because I have tested it out only once on my body and I have not used it on my face since my skin has been acting out. I do love the scent and all and I sure it is a great body moisturizer, but I am really bad at applying oils or creams on my body. The full size price for 100ml is 9,99 euros, again on the website I linked.
As I have said before I love getting makeup samples and this month My Beauty Box offered a great selection. My favourite item is the Lavera Soft lipliner in Plum, but sadly I was stupid and somehow broke mine in half, do not ask how just know that I am really gutted about it. In the picture you can see that the pencil is really small, but it was actually full size, I am just stupid and ruined it. The price for the full size is 2,49 eur and I am pretty sure that this was in full size. The colour was perfect for me and I wore it on its own. I also love that we got lipliners since I really like to overdraw my lips, and it is just so much easier to do that with a liner.
There was also another Lavera products, the Eyeshadow base. It is a transparent eyeshadow base for your lids, which helps your makeup to stay on much longer and it really helps you achieve a pop of colour. I tried it with creamy eyeshadow and it did not work that well with that but it is perfect for powders. It also prevents your eyeshadow from creasing, which is great since my eyelids and really not smooth. The box came with a full size, 9ml and it costs 3,49 e.
Another favourite that came in the box is the Lily Lolo Star Dust Illuminating Shimmer. I adore Lily Lolo cosmetics, I have a great lipstick and an eyeshadow so this was a nice item to add to my collection. It is a highlighter that does not make your face seem excessively shiny, but it gives you the perfect amount of shimmer.
The full size of this product costs 17,49 e.
Here are the swatches of the lipliner and of the highlighter:
You cannot really see the highlighter but you can see it on my instagram page.
I have to say, again, this months box was amazing and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to try out more products.
