Lookfantastic x Clinique Beauty Box

Limited edition boxes are quite the thing right now and one brand who does them exceptionally well is Lookfantastic. In the past, they have teamed up with me Illamasqua, Caudalie, ESPA, bareMinerals and Omorovicza to name just a few. Now they are back with something very pink and that is their Clinique Beauty Box.
Lookfantastic x Clinique Beauty Box
Collaborating with Clinique, this box which has a value of £93 costs just £35 and what I love about boxes like this is that if you are not too familiar with a brand, want to try a few products before splashing out on a full size or even if you want to be reacquainted with an old favourite, boxes like these are perfect.

This little capsule box covers everything you need from a pop of colour to cleansing with this collection of hero products and two of them are full-size makeup products. It launches on Lookfantastic today and features the following;
  • High Impact Push-Up Mascara in Brightening Black 4ml | worth £7.00 
  • Pep-Start Double Bubble Mask 12ml | worth £9.00 
  • Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm 15ml | worth £7.00 (a GTG team favourite) 
  • Moisture Surge 72 Hour Auto Replenishing Hydrator 50ml | worth £36.00 
  • Chubby Stick Moisturising Lip Colour Balm in Super Strawberry (Full Size) | worth £18.00 
  • Quickliner for Eyes in Really Black (Full Size) | worth £16.00 
If you like the look of this box then you can grab yours here.  
I would also love to know who you would love to see a beauty box by - which brand?

Triyit Product Discovery Club

Triyit is a product discovery club that sends you a tailored selection of hot new products, to try at home and I was lucky enough to be sent a box to try.  The first thing to notice is how brightly coloured the box is.
Tryit Product Discovery Club
We believe that discovering new favourite products should be fun, simple and FREE! That’s why we’ve built Triyit, a product discovery club that sends you a tailored selection of hot new products, to try at home for FREE!

Is the mantra behind Triyit and it is what got me intrigued enough to sign up for a prelaunch box. having completed a questionnaire (here) which takes just minutes to complete. As you can see, this box is a little different to boxes I am used to opening, for one, it isn't a beauty box, but there is a beauty product lurking here. 

Inside the box you are given a campaign booklet which gives you a little insight as to what is in the box and a little information about each one and then there is also some voucher codes to share with friends and family so they can make some savings.

Triyit Product Discovery Club
There are five products within the box and the first item to capture my attention comes from The Crooked Beverage Company and it is is an alcoholic soda which is vegan-friendly, contains no artificial nasties, is low in both sugar and calories and is packed full of natural ingredients.   They contain 4.7% alcohol and within my box, I had Dayglo Skies which is Raspberry and Lime flavour.

I like how refreshing this drink is and it is one of those beverages which would be perfect on a hot summer afternoon over ice.

Next, we have deliciously moreish roasted peas from Brave Foods and they are described as being high in protein and fibre plus they are grown in the UK. This is a bag of roasted split peas which are infused with Paprika and Chilli and when I first saw them within my box, I did turn my nose up, but having now consumed the entire bag, not only are they a great snack, they actually did pack quite a punch with their flavour.  It is also worth noting that they also come in Sea Salt or Garlic and Chive flavour too.

Next, we have some coconut chips from The Urban Fruit Company and as someone who absolutely loves all things coconut and having tried these before, I quickly consumed them. What I love about these chips is how crunchy they are and how natural they taste and they only contain the smallest sprinkling of sea salt. Not dry and they don't leave a nasty aftertaste in the mouth either.  If coconut isn't for you, then there is the choice of having Sriracha chilli Coconut Chips, Mango Chips, Strawberry, Pineapple, cherry or Raspberry options too.



The next item in my box is from The Berry Company and it is a can of Acai Berry Juice that is lightly sweetened with stevia leaf extract. It contains a delicious combination of acai fruit extract, with grape, raspberry and aronia berries and is low in calories and in sugar.

I wasn't too sure of the taste of this when I tried it, but I did slowly get used to the taste and managed to finish the entire can. I am not a big berry juice drinker usually, but I would try this again.

The final item in the box comes from Karine Jackson. Karine is described as being a global pioneer for sustainable, natural, organic and vegan haircare from her multi-award winning London salon. 
Triyit Product Discovery Club
Available from The Beauty Kitchen, the Protector Multi-purpose Primer. Designed to prime and protect the hair from UVA/UVB and daily pollution damage, this primer contains Protec7 which helps to protect the hair against 7 different types of hair damage.  I find this cream is perfect for helping to tame flyaway hairs when styling and I love that it is 100% natural and it also smells just amazing.

This is my first venture into a box of products which isn't all beauty related and ive really enjoyed the discovery.  If you would like to be part of the Triyit Discovery Club, you can find more information on their homepage right here.  I would love to know what you think.
