I received my first She Said Beauty box today. Loving the box - just like Boudoir Prive boxes used to be before they changed to Joliebox.
Onto the contents:-
Orly mini Nail Polish in Black - this is going to Beauty Box Swaps. Nail file I'll keep.
Comfort Zone Good Night Kit - renight Recover Cream 6ml plus renight Recover Complex 4ml - the carton is stamped with a date in 2010! According to She Said Beauty it is the date the product was made....
We are Faux Eyelashes - not a false lash fan so these will be swapped. Worth at least £9 though.
Aveda Smooth Infusion Trio - nice - though already enjoyed for free via a magazine offer.
Collection 2000 Cream Puff - full size - retails at £2.99 for 5ml - shade fairy cake - I will use this, lovely shade.
Bonus - Jing Flowering Dragon Eye Tea - nice extra but nothing new. Have bought this type of tea from Cho Time Tea previously.
Not as exciting as I'd expected this box to be. Was expecting a bit more for a first box especially after all the hype. I'm cancelling. What are your thoughts?
How much was it? Or was it gifted? Never had any beauty box before, which do you suggest? X
ReplyDeleteCan't complain too much it was on special offer of £9.70 (promo 25% off for first box). I loved Feel Unique but they've now stopped boxes for now (though I think they will come back!). The Harrods Glossybox looks amazing though I have un-subbed to them and joliebox. Carmine and Amarya were really good this month x
DeleteI got the body balm instead of the false lashes - gutted!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure whether to unsub or not!
I'd have preferred that! Just not as good as I was expecting! x
DeleteI've already cancelled, but it was only ever my intention to get the first box as it was abit cheaper. I'm quite glad it wasnt amazing as I might have been tempted to stay lol. It was ok, nothing special. Would also have preferred to get the lashes to the balm, was going to swap with someone, but after offering me the swap first, she then swapped with someone else instead which I thought was abit crap. Never swapped before but if that's how it works I won't bother in future either. I'm looking forward to getting my march glossy box though :) hopefully will get stuff I will use in it. X
ReplyDeleteI know me too! I've just got Carmine and Amarya left! Hope Feel Unique come back soon! Though I'm going to sub to Luxe Box. The March glossy box looks amazing! x
DeleteIt's actually a very good box, but I wouldn't half the products which is lame, though you ant please everyone ! xxx
ReplyDeleteI know, its impossible to please everyone! ;) x
DeleteI was in two minds to sign up for this when the offer was on, but decided against it as I was already subbed to three others. Kinda glad I didn't now, would have expected a lot more from a launch box to be fair! x

I was expecting a bit more for a first box tbh. Here's to Luxe Box, hopefully they will listen to likes/dislikes! :) x
DeleteHow can I subscribe to Luxe box, I can't find a web page for them. Many thanks
ReplyDeleteThey haven't launched yet, they were on facebook asking for likes and dislikes. They have a facebook page so if you join that you'll be first to know of launch x
Deleteowww love the look of the box! I really want to subscribe! I used to get the Boudoir Prive boxes but I only got one box and then unsubsidised because I wasn't best impressed. I have been looking for something to replace it. I still get GlossyBox too can't wait for the The Harrods Glossybox. Xx
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the launch of lux box! I unsubbed to glossybox but the Harrods box looks amazing! I am down to 2 boxes! eek! x
DeleteI think they did good for a first box as while it's not "WOW" it's not going to overhype people's future expectations a la glossybox. I've cancelled now though, trying to save money! But I just couldn't resist getting the first one ;) xx
ReplyDeleteI guess you're right though I was expecting something amazing! Looking forward to LuxBox launch! x
