YouBeauty box - March



YouBeauty Website


I really enjoy my YouBeauty box, especially for the price per month. It's affordable and gives excellent product choice. At times I find it hard to pick 2 items. Then the additional products included within the box are usually great. This month however was just unfortunate but once I contacted YouBeauty they sent me vintage cosmetic company tweezers. Excellent customer service. 


So the two options I chose were;

- The body shop Camomile cleanser and Muslin cloth 
- Paul Mitchell ; Dry wash 

Extras
-Vintage cosmetic company item (toe seporators, tweezers or lashes)
- Butterfly tea, 2 sachets 


My first pick was, The body shops camomile cleanser with a muslin cloth. As I really do love muslin cloths when cleansing. Also the camomile tin is very nice, much preferred to the plastic tubs. I can reuse this tin when it's finished with and use it for decanting or storage. So I can't wait to use this product.


So my second option was the Paul Mitchell - Dry wash. As I use a lot of these dry shampoos, for when I'm in hospital. It makes it easier to maintain clean sense, till you can wash it. It's an essential product in my travel bag. Having used this once it was, light and scented nicely to refresh my hair.

YouBeauty Discovery box - Nov 2013



YouBeauty box has been the beauty subscription I've most enjoyed recently, plus feel gives the most amazing value for money. At £6.95 including postage with a choice of your samples rather then a pre-picked box. This maintains that you choose what you love, no one assumes what you may like. The pick of samples is vast, from tanning products including the mitt to haircare products plus tools.


This month was centred all around party glamour it seemed. It was very apparent that the products were aimed, at getting ready for the Christmas and new year party season. 


As well as the 2 samples that come within each box, this month they were 
Flash by Jimmy choo
Green and blacks (Raisin and Hazelnut chocolate)

My contents ; 
Awpawai hair duo 
Becca illuminating shimmer 



I think out of all the beauty boxes I've subscribed to, YouBeauty consistently offers me new and exciting samples. 
No repeats and defiantly no sparcety in sample size. I wish that all beauty boxes had this quality.

You discovery box - Nov 2013



YouBeauty is a new beauty box on the block. Priced at just £6.95 per month with P&P included, i must admit this box was not calling but more screaming to me. I have had 2 boxes now and i cant say I've been disappointed in the least, in-fact i would say its a steal for this price. 

So the box comes every month with a selection of beauty products to which you pick 2 from the list, these then come boxed with 2 more items that everyone receives. 


So the contents of my box this month were :
Percy and Reed - Firm session holding hairspray (30ml)
Neo-Stem - Anti accelerated Ageing serum (30ml)

Extras in every box 
Montagnue Jeunesse - Body smoothie
Lizi's Granola - Toasted granola 

Now i love the fact you can pick and choose your items from 8 picks (this months amount) as naturally no beauty box can cater for all tastes. This beauty box however i feel may have cracked it as they offer you 2 choices of product plus the price is just to be fair unreal. I would happily pay this to get samples maybe some months i don't need but would use in future. As i can honestly say the size of the samples are very generous indeed, so much so you could get at least a months use out of a skincare item. Especially a serum which is targeted to certain points of the face and not all over body use. 


I have yet to use the Serum as I'm currently using one for review, so this is in my to use box when i come up empty. I am looking forward to using it as the bottle is very high end within a glass container and stylish in its presentation.

Percy and reed hair products i love and adore so having a chance to trial there hair spray was fabulous for me. I again have a hair system to trial so this will be used when i have completed that and i may use this for travel. As the sample is perfect size for a handbag. Very impressed.

Now the two extras were lovely as i usually use a Montague Jeunesse face mask at times when its treat night to relax. Ive always been impressed and loved there convenient masks which are also affordable. This was a nice change to receive a body smoothie, i look forward to using this.

The lizi's granola i wont lie, it didn't last long and i used this with my yogurt and fruit on three servings. I received the chocolate flavour and it was very chocolatey and added a nice texture and flavour to my morning breakfast. I will be looking this product up as i really would love to purchase more of them to have as a staple to my diet. 

So if you are on the hunt for a new beauty box subscription then maybe give the YouBeauty discovery box a try ? I haven't been disappointed and from the feedback off other friends whom have subscribed they haven't either. 


Do you subscribe ? What are your thoughts on this beauty box addition ? 

Where have i been ?

Many of us use makeup as we have a passion or or it is nessesity of our daily life. For me it is a mixture of things. It is one of those ...
