August Empties

I haven't used as much as usual this month! Here are my August empties -

LP Skin Therapy Overnight Replenish Cream 15ml - this came in a Latest in Beauty box and was really nice to use.  Would maybe purchase.

bodhi Jasmine Falls Relaxing Body Moisturiser 40ml - one of my favourite bodhi scents.  See my review here.

Therapie Boost Hair & Body Wash 250ml - have loved all of the Therapie products I've tried and I'll definitely buy this again. A great morning wake up call.  See my review here.

Kerastase Bain Satin 1 Shampoo 250ml - one of my favourite shampoos. See my review here. Will pick this up again.

Accorelle Day Cream 2ml - hard to tell if I liked it as it was such a small sample. Nice enough but probably wouldn't buy.

Nuxe Body Fondant Shower Gel 30ml - this was nice to use and left the skin clean and fresh. I've a few more of these to use up.

Bohemian Naturals Perfume Samples - see my review here. I'll maybe pick up Amber Rose which was my favourite.

Bamford Botanical Geranium Bath Oil 30ml - one of my favourite bath oils ever!  Have a few of these to use up that I got in swaps.

Abahna Frangipani & Orange Blossom Bath & Shower Gel 50ml - my favourite Abahna scent. Sure to buy this again at some point.

Caudalie Vinexpert Serum Eyes & Lips 1.5ml - nice to use and I'd maybe purchase full size.

Creme de la Mer The Eyebalm Intense 3ml - gorgeous! Would love full size!

Aurelia Revitalise & Glow Serum sample* - an amazing product and one I'll definitely buy when I reduce my stash.  See my review here.

Gielly Green Repair Shampoo 50ml - one of my favourite shampoos. Will buy again at some point.

Gielly Green Classic Conditioner 50ml - nice to use but probably would buy the repair version.

Pai Rice Plant & Rosemary BioAffinty Toner 50ml - a gorgeous (if pricey) toner. See my mini review here.  I'd probably only purchase this again if it came in an offer.

Lucy Annabella Organics Argan & Bergamot Organic Treatment Oil 10ml - this came in my August Amarya box. Have since bought the full size.

Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser 30ml - nice to use I think this came from a Latest in Beauty box.  Got another to use - I'd maybe purchase.

Taaj Eau Micellaire de L'Himalaya Water 500ml - a huge bottle I bought from Joliebox.  I had a love/hate relationship with this one as sometimes it stung my eyes and other times it didn't. I've got a smaller bottle to use up but I wouldn't buy again.

Dr Bronner's Magic Soap 18-in-1 Castile Soap Almond 59ml - this was nice to use but Peppermint is my favourite scent so wouldn't buy this.

Korres Guava Body Butter 50ml - love this fruity scented body butter. Would buy again.

Oh! Organics Rose Moisturiser 60ml* - I really enjoyed using this.  See my review here.

Beauteco Box - July

I saw Sara's review of her July Beauteco box and I was sold! - see here.

Beauteco offer three different boxes each month - some items are standard in all boxes and then a variation is offered - see previous boxes here.  It costs £10 plus P&P.  I like that Beauteco use less packaging than normal beauty boxes and all is recyclable.

Here's the one I picked!

Neal & Wolf Harmony Intensive Care Treatment - for all hair Types 200ml (full size 200ml - £12.95) I've never tried any Neal & Wolf products before so super excited that there are two in this box and full size! Tried this Friday morning for the first time and it left my hair supersoft and nourished.

The second Neal & Wolf item is Elevate - a Volumising Lotion again full size! (200ml - £11.95) this is designed to give hair volume and body. Again, tried this on Friday and it gave me full bouncy locks!

My next items are 3 Accorelle minis - these are exclusive to Beauteco - there are three 2ml sample sizes - Day Cream, Night Cream and Serum.  From a brand I've never heard of before.  Happy to try these.

I've used the Pukka Radiance Serum (10ml) before.  See my review here. Happy to use this again.

Finally, an Art Deco Soft Kajal Liner in Black, again a full size product from a brand I've not heard of before.

Did you get this box?  What are your thoughts?
