You Beauty Discovery Box - July Edition

For the past few months I have been getting the You Beauty Discovery Box which you can see February,  March,  April,  May and  June with previous box contents.  This month my fifth box has arrived and I have said I am just as impressed.

Whenever it is time to pick the contents of your box, there is always one item that goes really quickly, no matter how early I find myself logging in to select the products I would like to try, I miss the one I want to try most.  That said, I like this months box and this is it.

This months box is themed "You Travel" and it is designed to give me an offer of a range of travel-friendly beauty must-haves - to go! As I have said before, I love is how the box fits through my letterbox, it is packed really delicately and the box really study and it has never looked disheveled.

Within the magazine which comes with the box we given the opportunity to try some of the following products, the idea being you choose two and there will also be two little extra treats, so this month they included:

So yes, there are infact three little extras which are:

Agent Provocateur Fatale perfume sample, everyone knows I am a big fan of these and this one says "Are you ready to flirt with danger? Fatale, the new fragrance from Agent Provocateur, has dark glamour, seduction and a sensual hint of danger".  It is quite floral and fruity at the same time, a scent I would perhaps favour for evening over daytime.

Next comes something for my mister Beautykinguk and that is the New Pro Moisture Shave Cream from Dove.  It is said to have been designed to provide men with a more enjoyable shave experience!

The final extra is the Egyptian Magic all purpose skin cream.  I have been wanting to try this for some time now, it is one of those products on my life of something to get a sample of to see if I like it, well voila I have it.  It is described as being the celebrity favourite all purpose skin balm with super moisturising benefits which combines the healing powers of six natural ingredients and is bursting with antioxidents to nourish and protect the skin.

So now to my choices, this month there was a choice of nine products which included: Tanorganic Self Tan Original, Tanorganic Oil Arganic Body Oil, L'oreal Paris Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara, L'Occitane en Provence repairing shampoo and conditoner duo, Green People Sun Lotion Tan Accelerator with SPF 15, Dr Bronner All-One Hemp Lavender pure castile soap, Balm Balm Rose Geranium Lip Balm, Archeia Rose Rejuventating Cream, Abahna White Grapefruit & May Change Bath Gel.

This is what I selected:

Starting with Balm Balm Rose Geranium Lip Balm which comes in a cute little pot, it is 100% Organic, Soil Association Certified Multi Purpose Rose Geranium Balm and has a delightfully uplifting, feminine fragrance.

It uses a combination of Shea butter, sunflower, beeswax, jojoba, and calendula rose geranium essential oil, gently melted together to create a solid balm to soothe, moisturise and nourish your lips or anywhere else that might need a little tlc.

Secondly the mascara I think most people are talking about and a product you can never have enough of is the L'Oreal Paris Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara.  It is described as follows:

Mega Volume Miss Manga features a 360° fleible cone shaped brush for mega volume on top and bottom.

The 360 degree flexible brush enables easy application and mega volume on top, while the conical shape captures the lower lash for mega volume on bottom.

The result…Big Manga eyes.

So for a £6.95 subscription, my box has a value of around £15 which is more than double the value for money and not a bad box.

Catseye London Mid-Year Launch

One of my favourite companies Catseye London has just launched their new mid-year collection and I have a few of those items to share with you.  If you have read my blog before, you might have seen other reviews I have done, if you haven't seen them, then you can do so HERE and HERE.

Launched back in 2004 with a collection of quirky prints on many fashion and beauty accessories such as home décor,  Wash-bags  Nailcare kits, Cushions, Mugs, Storage boxes, passport holders, travel card holders all of which allow you to stand out from the crowd and your friends, there is even a few things for the men in your lives!

The collection I am sharing with you today are the Kitten on Green Small Bag and The Mr and Mrs Oval Bag.  Both of these items arrived in their own dustbag which is rather impressive, not to mention very useful.

The Mr and Mrs Oval bag which is the most brilliant bright pink colour, features these beautiful black and white bulldogs, just look at how cute they are!  This oval bag is the perfect size for my handbag which allows me to carry all of these amazing products which you can see below.  Measuring H10 W8 D19 cm it won't take up too much room, but what it can carry is clearly important! 

The Kitten on Green small bag is the one which made me go "OMGLOOKATTHISOMGHOWCUTE" yes as a lover of cats (I also like dogs) I couldn't help but fall in love with this beautiful little fur ball, just look at how cute this kitten is!  On a beautiful jade green background, this bag more than catches your eye, it makes you want to stroke it, it is that beautiful.  Its approximate size H14 W20 D7 cm makies it perfect for those weekends or few days away because you can literally fit everything you will need into it. 

What do you think to these bags?  Do you own any of the products from Catseye London?
