Look Fantastic UK beauty box May 2017

This month's beauty box from Look Fantastic is one of my favourites. There's two reasons for this, firstly, that I know I will use everything that came in the box so that is a winning box combination for me. Secondly that I have never tried any of the items before so they are all new discoveries which I will find out whether I like them or not.

Each month, the box has a theme and this month the theme was "Get the Glow" which has an instant appeal for me, I mean who doesn't want "the glow" on their skin! I was expecting highlights, exfoliators, oils and tans and I was not disappointed! The products came in a lovely pink box with the lid themed and a nice little message inside the lid as per usual, it's a nice touch!





So, the first item to catch my eye was a lovely eye shadow, by a brand I had not heard of before "Mellow" but it is available from the Look Fantastic Website at £6 for an individual shadow or there is a palette on there for £20 that looks very nice. The colour I have is Peach and it's a lovely neutral shade with a light shimmer to it. I have just finished my single pot from Bourjois so it's  good time for a new base colour to enter my life. I love a light shade as a base with lots of mascara on the lashes, it's a simple fresh look that I wear often.


Next up was a bottle of clear liquid with a spray top, a James Read gradual tan h20 spray mist which sounds lovely for a light summer tan. The small bottle in brown is a Real Chemistry three minute peel which sounds like it will be a good exfoliator.

The next bottle is a great sized 30ml it is by System Professional and is a solar sun oil, a hair protecting product which is great when it comes to holiday time. i like to put something through my hair and wear a hat during the day to nourish my hair whilst I am in and out of the pool and in the sun. I particularly like the dosing system of the pump top lid as it helps to get the right amount out and makes the bottle last longer! 



So, the last three items are all sachets. The Nuface prep n glow carded sachet which contains a travel friendly wipe to cleanse, exfoliate and hydrate. I will take this on an overnight stay to get the best use from it. the second item is by Glov and it is a single packaged wipe to remove make up that you activate with water, sounds handy!  Finally a sealed bag of coconut cranberry scrub love that is described as a hydrating coconut oil body scrub. It feels a bit squishy in the packet and has a resealable lid so should do a few treatments. I will use this in the shower as I can switch off the faucet to scrub then rinse away. Definitely a great pre holiday treatment!

Well, I do think this is a great value box and can't wait to get stuck in!

The box was bought for me as a Christmas present (two years in a row now) and I really love the monthly surprise the box gives me. You can buy them for as little as £13 per month and this includes postage.

I have another box or two coming soon so I will review them when they land!
