She Said Beauty Box December 2012
No longer available
Quite sad that this was the last ever She Said Beauty Box, and also quite surprising as I had no idea they were stopping them until I read a random post on Facebook. They certainly kept it quiet.
I would have hoped they would have gone out with a bang and given loads of extras but unfortunately not, the box was pretty standard.
YaNa Kiss Ghassoul Clay Mask
I loved the idea that this could be used on body and hair, so excitedly went to put it on my hair before getting in the shower. Unfortunately the pot was far too small so there was not enough to cover my head, and it just clumped on the bits of hair that it did touch, making it look like I had bad dreadlocks. You can't spread it through to distribute evenly, so most of my hair was unexposed. The smell also was terrible, even my partner asked what on earth the smell was as I walked by. Very disappointed.
Minvita Baobab Body Oil
I put this on wet skin after getting out of the shower and it was absolutely fantastic! I honestly can't say it made any change to the condition of my skin, but it did wonders at drying me instantly so i could get dressed straight away - what a time saver!! I would definitely like to buy this again, but at over £30 for the full size I can't help feeling it might be a little bit too much!
Dr Duve Anti Aging and Firming Eye Cream
Pretty standard cream, maybe even a little bit too thick for the eye area. Only got 2 applications out of the sachet, so can't say if it made any difference, but I certainly would not pay the £115 for a full size!
Dr Duve Skin Boosting Cream
Pretty much the same as the eye cream, only got 2 applications out of the sachet so I tried it one night and my partner tried it the following night. We both had the same impression, standard face cream, no overnight wonder.
Technic Nail Varnish in Tawny Port
Quite a nice varnish, good to get such a large size. Nice shade of purple, different to everything I currently own.
Amie Spring Clean Cooling Mask
Loved the smell of this, really citrusy and fresh! Didn't experience a cooling sensation though, so a little disappointed there.
Jing Jade Sword Green Tea
I'm a tea lover, so was quite excited excited about this, but unfortunately it was quite lacklustre and tasted pretty bland.
All in all pretty disappointing for my last box from She Said Beauty. I will be sad to see them go though.
I am not beauty trained, and have never worked in the industry. I am a real woman with an office job, and a busy lifestyle! I have no idea how to apply make up professionally, I just play around and wear what I think works well. I spend too much money on cosmetics, and after boring my partner with commentary on everything I buy I have now taken my thoughts to the internet! The comments within are entirely my own personal opinions and experiences of the products I have purchased.
