Amitee - May

I received my Amitee box this morning.  It's the Bridal box - "As this is the Bridal Season we know that you will be attending at least one wedding this summer or if you are lucky enough you will be hosting the wedding.  This box is dedicated to all the brides, bridal party and guests.  Weddings are all about looking your best.  We have selected the best products that will leave you looking and feeling great".


Argh! Lashes - I hate false eyelashes!

Here's the contents:

Paul Penders Jasmine Shampoo 60ml - this size is worth £4.95 - "Time release  shampoo is a unique approach to washing the hair based on organic olive oil as a cleansing agent".  Smells nice, looking forward to trying this out.  Never heard of this brand.

Botanicals Chamomile Cleansing Melt 5g - worth £2.30 - "A deeply nourishing facial cleanser that penetrates the skin's lower layers, removing impurities and restoring natural balance".  Happy to try this out although quite small pot.

Alva Hand Cream 18ml - worth £2.10 - "for hands smooth as silk, the ultimate working hands cream.  Happy to use this.

Alva Soft Peeling Mask 10ml sachet - worth £3.35 - "the skin is left feeling smooth and supple actively improving the skin's condition giving a wonderful clear complexion".  Happy to use this.

Eldora Lashes H106 - grrr I hate, hate, hate false lashes and they have featured in so many beauty boxes.

I'll use everything (apart from the lashes) but for a "Bridal" box I expected make up/more luxury items.  This is my last Amitee box as they messed up payment and didn't reply to my emails.

What are your thoughts?

    What an odd theme though and I'm glad I haven't made a sub with them x

    1. ;) Was fairly disappointed with this box - especially the lashes! I'll use all the skincare items but for a "Bridal" box I was expecting a bit more x

  2. Arrgggg Eyelashes, lol, although they look better than the dodgy sick on eyeliner things in Lux Box (mine hasn't arrived yet though)

    1. I know! I guess I'll use everything (apart from lashes) but wasn't the most exciting box! x

  5. I don't really see how this is particularly bridal and I've seen those eyelashes in so many boxes lately. I'm sure you'll use up most of the items though.

  6. I'm sick of seeing lashes in beauty boxes, even worse when its the same few brands over and over again.

    And I agree, for a bridal box I would expect some form of make up. Theres nothing bridal-y about it.

  7. I hate false eyelashes! Whyyyyyyyy?! I have had 2 pairs and I have only had 3 boxes in total. What a cop out by the companies. Do you feel like you got your moneys worth?
