The New & Improved Love Me Beauty Box (plus 10% discount)

Love Me Beauty box* | £10 + p&p | 10% off with the code 'CG10' | Link

As I'm sure you all know by now, I'm a big fan and supporter of Love Me Beauty and their monthly beauty box subscriptions. In my opinion, they're one of, if not thee best beauty box out there and one I'd highly recommend signing up for! The reason I love the brand so much if because they really care about what their customers want and ensure everyone is always happy with the items they receive each month! Now although I was already a big fan of their concept which gave their subscribers the choice of three menus each month, I'm an even bigger fan of their new concept which allows subscribers to make their own beauty profile and pick exactly what goes into their box!

When you sign up to the website you'll be asked about your skin type/hair colour etc which then allows Love Me Beauty to give you product suggestions that suit you. They then give you six credits to pick the contents of your box. Most of the products are worth one or two credits depending on whether they're a sample or full size so that means you'll get at least three but potentially up to six products from their 'boutique' each month! There's also the option to add extras items to your box for a small cost - the prices are shown before you add them!

As well as the concept, the box itself has also had a revamp and I'm just a little bit in love with it. It has a more sophisticated and luxurious feel and the grey/silver and rose gold combo is so pretty! The products themselves are also packaged differently and now come in a cute drawstring bag which can be reused! It will feel like a real treat receiving this in the post each month! The only thing that hasn't changed about the box is the value for money - it still costs only £10 including p&p or £9 if you add my discount code 'CG10' in at the checkout.

Here's what I chose from the boutique with my six September credits ...

Oriflame Skin Dream BB Cream | Full Size
I really enjoy wearing BB creams so I knew I had to give this one from Oriflame a try! It promises to cover imperfections, provide all day hydration and add a glow which sounds like everything I could want from a BB cream and more! Its also oil-free and has SPF 30.

Percy & Reed Dry Conditioner | Full Size
I love the brand Percy & Reed so I just had to use two of my credits on their 'dry conditioner' which is perfect to use when your hair is looking a bit lackluster and needs a dose of moisture and shine! This product alone is worth more than the whole box and there was few other Percy & Reed products up for grabs in the boutique.

Malin + Goetz Vitamin E Face Moisturizer | 29ml sample
I have to be honest, I've got enough moisturisers to last me a life time so I'm not sure why I picked this product - I think its because its quite a nice size for travelling and because it says its suitable for the most sensitive skin types, I thought it would be well suited to me. My skin has been crazy lately and I've been getting spots for the first time in my life so I want to strip my skincare routine back to basics with really simple products to see if that helps. Malin + Goetz is also sold at Space NK, I guessed it would be pretty good quality stuff. Lets face it, they only stock the best of the best!

Anatomicals Joint + Muscle Rub | Full Size
So most of you will probably think this is a really strange choice and a bit boring, especially when there was other makeup products up for grabs! However, I suffer with a bad back and when it gets bad I often get sore muscles in my leg so I thought this would be worth a try to see if it can help! I've not tried it yet but I'm hoping it works! If this doesn't take your fancy, there were lots of other fun anatomicals products up for grabs.

I'm really chuffed with the products I received this month and I'll get use from all of them which is why I love Love Me Beauty so much - I know I'm never going to get sachets or teeny tiny samples I'll never use! I realise the products I picked won't be to everyones taste so be sure to check out their boutique here to see the selection of products up for grabs. There's everything from makeup to skin, hair and body care!

What do you think of the new and improved Love Me Beauty box?


Lots of love,

April Love Me Beauty Box (& 10% discount code!)

April Love Me Beauty Box Review and Discount Code .jpg
Love Me Beauty box* | £10.00 plus p&p | 10% off with the code 'CG10' | Link

So I'm sure you're used to reading my monthly Love Me Beauty posts by now but just incase your new to my blog or haven't heard about this beauty box before, Love Me Beauty is a monthly subscription box with a difference. Unlike your standard beauty boxes that are a surprise every month (ususally full of products you didn't really want), Love Me Beauty allows their subscribers to choose from an option of three menus each month to ensure you're getting products you know you'll like and use. However, if you prefer the element of surprise, there's also a 'surprise' option you can choose instead. As if that wasn't great enough, they also offer subscribers the chance to skip a month (with no cost) if there isn't anything in that months box that takes your fancy. So basically what I'm trying to say is don't let the fact its a subscription box put you off as they're very flexible and you can cancel at any time!

This month I went for menu three and I was really excited about this one as there isn't one product that I wouldn't use. Keep reading to find out what I received ...

Models Own Nail Polish in Fuzzy Peach | Full Size | RRP £5.00
I was really happy to see a Models Own nail polish in this months box as they're one of my favourite nail polish brands and this shade, 'Fuzzy Peach', a muted coral, is perfect for S/S. As with all Models Own polishes, only two coats are required for full opacity. I can see this being my go-to Summer nail colour!

Redken Colour Extend Conditioner| 25ml Sample
Having tried a few Redken products in the past and loving them, I was excited to see a sample of their colour extend conditioner in this months box. Its a fairly small sample (25ml) but it should last me two washes and its a great little size for travelling. I intend to take it with me on my trip home this weekend so I haven't tried it yet but I'm looking forward to. Its designed to help keep colour treated hair vibrant and fresh so its right up my bleached blonde headed street! A full size bottle of this costs a pretty reasonable £9.99 so if I do like it, I might be tempted to buy the full size!

Betty Hula Secret Wonder Oil Roller Ball | Full Size | RRP £6.25
I've never heard of the brand Betty Hula before so I wasn't sure what to make of this product when I saw it in the box. However, after giving it a little go, I can confirm its absolutely lovely. Its a multi-purpose oil in a handy roller ball applicator that can be used on any areas of skin that need a boost of moisture. It smells very citrusy too which I absolutely love!

Neal & Wolf Ritual Daily Cleansing Shampoo | Full Size | RRP £11.50
I've tried this shampoo in the past and I really like it so I was happy to see this in this months box. It smells absolutely incredible and is very gentle on the hair. It removes any build up of product and leaves my hair feeling silky and soft. Neal & Wolfe say "an infusion of silk and milk proteins combine to boost vital moisture and reduce flyaway hair" and that "Liquid shea extract delivers brilliant shine" and I couldn't agree more!

Hello Fresh £25 Gift Card
Love Me Beauty boxes usually contain five products so when I saw each menu only contained four this month, I was a little bit confused. However, when I received my box and saw this voucher, I realised that this is the fifth item and its a bloomin good one too! As you probably know by now, I love cooking and would consider myself a bit of a 'foodie' so this gift card couldn't be more perfect for me. Hello Fresh is a unique service that delivers fresh ingredients to your door, along with recipe cards so you can follow them step by step and make a whole host of delicious meals. A box for 3 nights worth of meals for 2 people (the one I'm going to order) costs £42 with free delivery so I only have to pay £17 with this voucher which is total bargain when you think about it. Three nights worth of delicious new meals to try - I can't wait!

Weleda Stretch Mark Massage Oil
Love Me Beauty popped a couple of sachets of this massage oil in as an extra this month and although I don't have stretch marks, this will be nice to use to give my body a boost of moisture. I wasn't overly excited by this item but its a nice little extra regardless.

As you can see - Love Me Beauty have really delivered once again and I couldn't be happier with the contents of this months box. I'm particularly excited by the Hello Fresh voucher - me and my boyfriend have already been stalking their website and the food on offer sounds delicious so we're looking forward to dining like kings next week! For only £9.00 with my 10% discount code 'CG10' (pop it in at the checkout to receive the discount), this really is too much of a bargain to be missed! All Love Me Beauty boxes have a value of £35.00 or more so you can be rest assured that you're getting fantastic value for your money!

Which is your favourite product in this months box? Have you subscribed yet?

Lots of Love,
