With the YOU BEAUTY discovery box being One of the cheapest subscription boxes on the market at the minute retailing at £6.95 inclusive of P+P and having full size products from illamasqua and vintage cosmetics up for grabs in March it seemed like a definite winner to me and I loved my first box in March which contained a full sized illamasqua Lipstick.
The YOU BEAUTY box is slightly different to other beauty boxes in the fact that you get to pick 2 of your own products and then normally there are some little extras thrown in it hasn’t quite got the element of surprise like some of the others but still for the price it seems nice to pick your own products that perhaps elsewhere would cost more than the price of the box itself.
So, after a cracking first month in March I was excited to see what YOU BEAUTY had in store for Aprils box as soon as I woke up on the 1st I logged on to You Beauty to check the store and I literally thought they were playing some sort of April fools with it being the 1st and all that but no my high hopes were instantly dashed. Aprils theme was Organic & Relaxed with 9 products on offer and 5 being sample sized one of the full sized being a sponge and another of the full sized being sold out …. already!! I didn’t really have much choice as I refuse to pay near on £7 for 2 samples.
The First product I picked was the Scentered Sleep Well Therapy Balm.
With Palmarosa, Lavender & Ylang Ylang the sleep well balm is a therapeutic balm to clear the head and quieten the mind. Relax and prepare for a great night’s sleep a sophisticated floral Lavender blend that harnesses the therapeutic benefits of 14 different essential oils, including Lavender, Chamomile, Palmarosa, Ylang Ylang and Ho Wood. A 100% natural, portable therapy balm to support restful, restorative sleep at home or away.
Rub on to your pulse points and inhale deeply to help relax and drift off into a deep sleep.
I have yet to try this product but will be sure to let you know what I think of it when I do.
The last product I chose was the Spa To You Konjac Sponge.
The Spa to you Konjac sponge is made from 100% pure, natural and organic Konjac dietary fibre. Unbelievably soft and gentle, it is ideal for bringing back the natural glow and softness of the skin with daily usage. Fabulous for deep cleanses, exfoliating, as well as hydrating and moisturising the skin.
Again I am yet to use this product the one thing I will say is it feels kind of damp and squidgy inside the packet so I am excited to give it a go.
The 2 sample extras this month were a 5ml sachet of YOURS TRULY
ORGANICS Fix Me! Repairing Serum and a 1 serving pack of Linwoods Cocoa and Berries Flaxseed which I have already used and it did add a nice sweetness to my smoothie so that gets a thumbs up from me.
All in all I wasn’t all that impressed with the choices from You Beauty this month, but I will stick with it for May before I decide whether or not to cancel my subscription.
