British Beauty Blogger Edit Box

My British Beauty Blogger beauty box arrived yesterday!  A limited edition box (there were only 500 and they sold out in a matter of hours). Jane has confirmed there will be a Christmas box (available in November) - I'd suggest you sign up to Jane's emails or follow her on Twitter  so you will be among the first to know!

This amazing box cost just £15 (plus £4.55 P&P) and features Jane's most favourite beauty products.

Here's a picture of when I just opened the box. WOW!


Onto the contents:




Bess wanted in on the photo!




As a huge Jo Malone fan I was excited to see a 2ml sample of Jo Loves Pomelo - which has notes of Pink Pomelo, Rose, Clove, Vetivert, Suede & Patchouli - it's simply gorgeous!  Need to start saving for a full size bottle (30ml - £45, 100ml - £95).




A full size bottle of Trilogy Rosehip Face Oil (20ml - £16.50) - I'm a huge fan of this face oil so pleased to see it included in the box.



The next three items are Elemis Tri Enzyme Face Mask 15ml - I've also used this product before.  It is a gel mask which removes dead skin cells leaving the skin clear and radiant.

There is a Neom Hand Cream 50ml in Complete Bliss Moroccan Blush Rose - my most favourite hand cream...ever - so I'm pleased to have a back up! See my review here.

Philosophy Purity Cleanser 90ml - A 3-in-1 cleanser for face and eyes which removes make up, cleanses, tones and hydrates the skin.



Next up is BIOEFFECT Serum 2.5ml - I love this! It helps with wrinkles and pigmentation and brightens the complexion.

Melvita is another favourite brand - included is Orange Blossom Extraordinary Water 28ml - this is nice and refreshing for spritzing onto the skin anytime of the day. Can also be used for toning.  The Apicosma Body Balm 15ml smells sweetly of apricots.  Looking forward to trying both of these.

CND SolarOil 3.7ml - a 'hero' product which helps keep nails strong, hydrated and supple.  I'm trying to grow my nails just now so this little oil will help!



Finally the make-up!



B Mascara 8ml (£9.99) - Superdrug's own brand - a lengthening & defining mascara which is water resistant and smudge proof.  Looking forward to trying this!

Benefit The POREfessional 7.5ml - a huge fan of this especially to pat on afternoon shine.

Bourjois Cream Blush - this is a cute peach shade - looking forward to trying it out! Full size product.

Illamasqua Liquid Metal Eye Shadow in Electrum 8g - another full size product. This is only my second make up item from the brand so looking forward to trying it out.

Finally, a full size Lanolips Lip Balm 17.5ml in shade Rhubarb - I'm a huge Lanolips fan but not tried this shade yet.

Included is also a range of money off codes from the brands included in the box and an informative leaflet with a message from Jane on the front.




An amazing box.  What are your thoughts?  Did you manage to pick one up?
