It's that time of the month again when Look Fantastic releases another beauty box and over the past few months these boxes have been so colourful and have always arrived with a copy of Elle magazine too (win) all for just £15. This months box includes products from Ren, The Wet Brush, Ioma, Uniq One, Vichy and Decleor.
I've been a subscriber to this box for over a year now and the products and the appearance of the box each month just gets better and better and they really challenge the other beauty boxes in the beauty box market by bringing something new and also by giving you a copy of Elle magazine with your monthly box!
Eve Lom Cleanser - Sample size
I've tried this cleanser from beauty boxes numerous times now and I really like it. I've never bought the full size though (as I am still obsessed with Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish) and the full size is VERY costly at £55. I think this is a great way to try the product before hand and if you're someone who invests a lot in skincare this product is for you.
Classic Wet Brush in Orange
This brush is raved about by pretty much every beauty blog I read and every beauty youtuber I like to watch. I received one of these about a year ago and it's the only hairbrush I use once I've come out the shower. It's soft, doesn't damage your hair and is gentle what else do you need? I will be passing this one on to my mum though as I already have 2 of these myself!
Ren Wake Wonderful Night-Time Facial
This is a product I've never tried (or remember trying before) but I've heard all good things about Ren. Me and one of my best friends were recently in Space NK (having a browse) and came across this and it smelt amazing. It's recently been mentioned in a Vivianna Does Make-up video too. I'll be trying this out with my skincare routine tonight and I'll report back.
I've never tried any products from Decleor before but after having a look on the Look Fantastic site it's quite an up-market brand. If there's any skin product I'm looking for at the moment it's one which restores radiance and hydrates and nourishes your skin. I will report back on this one after trying it a few times!
I think this product is great as you get a 7 day supply of individually packaged samples for you to put to the test (and this is great for if you do a lot of travelling too). This day & night cream is enriched with PA Reviviscience which strenghtens the skins natural barrier against environmental aggressors and Osmhydran which helps lock in the skins moisture. This is ideal for dull/dry/dehydrated skin.
I've never seen this product before and I was delighted to see this in this months box. This hair treatment has 10 benefits that give you gorgeously healthy, shiny and protected hair. I think hair treatments are so important, especially if you use hair straighteners so regularly like myself as it helps restore that damage you've done to your hair.
Vichy Liftactiv Supreme
This was the product in this months box I was most excited about. I've never tried Vichy before and so seeing this in this months box (for my skin type too) I am really looking forward to trying this. This cream claims to tone the skin, even out your skin tone and targets signs of fine lines and wrinkles.
Overall, as usual I'm impressed with this months box. I really love the wet brush and I was so excited to see a Vichy product in the box. I think what's great about this box is you get a real variety of products but as usual I'd love to see a couple (or maybe just one) make-up item in this box!
I think it's well worth subscribing too if you're a beauty addict (like myself) and it's a bonus to get a copy of Elle magazine too so you can chill out in the evening (after trying the Ren facial product) and have a read.
You can sign up to the Look Fantastic beauty box here from just £11.25 a month including P&P!

Hey thanks for the review but dont you see that thees a problem for paying to get a brush and free sammples? I do and im really dissapointed with this box for that reason.
I have to admit I was also disappointed with the free samples. I think the uniq 1 hair treatment even said it on the side of the bottle. But I didn't have the brush (gave previous mini one from an earlier look fantastic box away) so I was happy with that. Otherwise I would have been really disappointed with the box... I do think Look Fantastic repeat the items in the boxes too often - especially as they have such a wide range of products on their site.
I have to say I was also a bit disappointed. I think my uniq 1 hair treatment said 'free sample' on the side. Although I was happy to receive the hair brush (I gave the previous mini one from an earlier Look Fantastic box away) I'd had been really disappointed if I had kept it - There's lots of repetition in these boxes which I think lets them down (is this the Third wet hairbrush?!) especially as the have such a huge range of products available on their site.
I've enjoyed the sample products, although some I can't get in Canada. My problem with the Beauty Box is not the product but the company delivery or lack of. I've only had 3 boxes and twice now not received them, they have not even been sent...and until I've waited 5 to 7 WEEKS, and them go back to the company and tell them ...no product yet...they just take the money and if you don't complain they would just never follow through to be sure your order has arrived. No tracking. This problem is so common with this company that had I know in the first place I would never have even started a subscription. What amazes me is the companies that do business with Lookfantastic are not being helped with their products...Lookfantastic is extremely poor at promotion....better at pissing people off!
