Souk Souk December Beauty Box

My Souk Souk Beauty Box arrived on Thursday and I was happy to see contained two brands I've not tried before....but a bit disappointed to see a product which I've had in zillions of beauty boxes - the INIKA Black Eyeliner....

So onto the contents:


I was pleased to see two products from The Naked Skincare Company which look fantastic.  Evening Relaxing Body Oil 30ml sample size - this is lovely! It is made with Sweet Almond and Apricot Kernel Oil along with Ylang Ylang and Sandalwood Essential Oils. I'm looking forward to trying this and Hydrating Skin Balm 30ml which is scented with Orange and Frankincense and is great for dry skin areas as well as calming and soothing. 

Another brand I've heard of but not tried before is Fairfield Gardens Lip Balm (£3.89). This is in Spearmint & Fennel and is refreshing and soothing. I love lip balms and can never have too many.  This is a welcome addition to the box.

I'm a huge fan of Pure Thoughts already and love their soaps. I'm looking forward to trying this Winter Wonderland mini soap. It contains Cedarwood and Pine Essential Oils giving it a festive woodland scent.

The final item in the box is that dreaded INIKA Eyeliner which is worth £10.75. All in all I am pleased with my December box but have decided to stop my subscription for now. (#nobuyjanuary is looming!)

Did you get this month's box?  What are your thoughts on the contents?

  1. The naked skincare and Fairfield gardens are both new to me and I really like them. I live in black eyeliner so will use my stash. Would be nice to see some different Inika makeup in the boxes though x

  6. I haven't been getting SoukSouk for a few months now since I was disappointed with the ingredients a few times, but this month looks great! I'm a bit of an eyeliner addict so would have loved that one haha :) x

  7. Looks like a great box! It does seem like Inika pencils end up in subscription boxes a lot though. It takes me forever to use up an eyeliner, so I can understand not wanting another!

  8. Looks like a good box but you're right...whenever Inika is in a box its either an eyeliner or an eyebrow pencil (which was wayyyyy too light for me!) xx
