I was excited when Dorothy from Dorothy's Little Wonderland announced on Beauty Box Swaps she was taking orders for a June Asian box.
I received a fantastic box from Maria previously (see below). You can see my post here. It cost £10 including postage but Maria brought these back personally from holiday.
My box, sent in a jiffy bag from Dorothy cost initially £12.95 including P&P. We were then asked to pay an additional £3.50 for custom charges. Here's what I got:
Seafood noodles (it's a beauty box!) I'd have preferred another sheet mask.
Isqueen Blemish Balm Cream 8g - looking forward to trying this out although it has leaked all over the packaging and some of the other products.
Shiseido Hand Cream 40g - seems a nice product from a well known brand and I love hand creams.
C&M Anti-Blemish 3 in 1 Deep Purifying Cleansing Gel 70ml - I got a different variety of this cleanser in my box from Maria. I can always use a cleanser although I'm wondering if this might be a bit harsh for my skin.
1 x sheet mask Rose in Heaven - love sheet masks so keen to try.
I don't think that the "box" is great value for money especially when you see how much I received in my box from Maria (top photo) but I will use everything apart from the noodles. Did you order one? What are your thoughts?
p.s. Nardine from Live...Laugh...Love is making me a surprise box for £13.30 including P&P - can't wait!

You got some fantastic products in there. I'd love to try Asian products. Bet they work well on Asian skin.

the first box was amazing (first photo). Will use the other products but not great value for money x
DeleteReally not worth the money , I would have been so disappointed if I had recieved this. I was in 2 minds whether to order it when she advertised it on bbs I am so glad I didn't now.
ReplyDeleteYou have a treat in store as I know Nardine always sends out the most amazing boxes, it will so make up for your disappointment with this one. xx
I know I was disappointed - I will use everything I guess but expensive. I have had a swap with Nardine so know how great her boxes are - can't wait x
DeleteThis Doesn't excite me at all, theres nothing to tell you what everything is for or tell you how to use it & wasn't even presented well deff wont be buying again even tho i didn't get the noodles (thank god) . I hope you like my box.... everything in it is stuff i use, so should be good lol xxx
ReplyDeleteI know I was expecting it to be in a box at least. Lucky you :) I am sure I will love your box x
DeleteGreat post, really informative for me as i was thinking of buying if it weren't for a lack of funds! x
ReplyDeletethanks! I'd definitely recommend if Maria does another to go with hers as everything was so nice x
DeleteHardly worth the money I think, the first box is amazing though! I'd love to try sheet masks.

I agree. The sheet masks are fab I think nina chu was selling some on BBS. x
DeleteYou can buy some sheet masks from sasa.com or shoppingholics. Never been custome charged by shoppingholics because they lie on the postage and say the items are worth less than what they are. Hope that helps
