Another disappointing month from LHI with boring boring samples. The only product I was happy to see because it saved me buying some was the SunSense Anti-Ageing Face SPF+30.
One of my samples was missing the Clairol Hair Mask.
Maybelline Fresh BB Cream - I have already purchased and tried this BB cream it is thin runny and does nothing. This is in medium so the shade doesn't even match.
Maybelline Fresh BB Cream - sample sachet - if you send me the full size product why send me a sachet too??
Pelactiv Gentle Foaming Cleanser -sample - just another boring face wash
Uriage Aquaprecis refreshing gel cream - sample - this stuff smells, is for normal combination skin, I have very dry skin. I tried this and don't understand what is suppose to be refreshing about it, does nothing to moisturise my skin and it stinks. I had to wash it off, the smell was so over-powering, smells like insect repellant.
and that was it. What the??
How much do I pay for this box? It seems since they put their price up it has only gotten worse. There is no profile matching and most the products you can pick up from a chemist. Definitely not worth $20.
Unfortunately I am on a subscription to this lousy box and have to suffer a while longer but I won't be renewing.
I DO NOT recommend this beauty box to anyone, save your money and go out and buy yourself something you would really like.
Dang, that's disappointing! I have the Maybelline BB Cream and wasn't crazy about how runny it is either. But I started applying with a flat foundation brush or buffing brush and found I actually liked the application!

Awww i'm sorry you didn't like the box Jac! I kept forgetting that the boxes are $20 now! I grabbed the annual offer while it was still $15 per box. One box I am really keen to get my hands on is the wantable box!
ReplyDeletehave a great christmas too ^_^
Big hugs!!
ReplyDeleteHya Sammey, yes I have contacted them but they have failed to reply xx
ReplyDeleteTwo boxes in 2 days! I'm still waiting for my one box!! I just don't know what to think about these boxes anymore.. I was glad that I unsubbed to BB before last month, neither of their recent boxes have impressed me, but I was going to swap back over to them when my LHi sub runs out early next year as mid year LHi boxes were terrible! You win some, you lose some... thinking I may just scrap them all, or ask my mum to purchase my sub for my birthday, that way I won't feel like I'm wasting MY money :)
ReplyDeleteBesides that... happy to receive some sunscreen, like you I won't have to go out and buy some :) I like the Dream Pure BB but haven't tried the original Dream Fresh one. Will have to wait and see what my box brings. Have a very Merry Christmas Jac xx
I am seriously thinking of dropping BB and I won't be renewing LHI once my sub is finished, really over subscription boxes. I hope your boxes arrive soon.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family Loz xx
Indeed, The box doens't look very special. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Leah, I have been saying that for a while now they will get better but they don't. Once my subscription is up that's it for me. Jac xx
ReplyDeleteI was very disappointed with this one xx

That's an unfortunate excuse for a beauty box! Happy I read this post, but it suck that you had to be the one to test it out!

I have been with the beauty boxes for well over a year now and they have all steadily gone down hill. I don't think it is something you can subscribe too for a long time and they get very repetitive xx
ReplyDeleteI was disappointed it didn't have a more christmas feel to it too xx
ReplyDeleteThe BB cream is one of my favourite! Love the post!
