SoukSouk August Beauty Box

My August SoukSouk beauty box was waiting for me when I got in from work last night.  I love it!  The magazine which comes with the box features Ana from Ana Goes Green which was a nice surprise when I opened up the page she is on!

So what's inside:

Bloom Remedies Daily Balance Cream 30ml (50ml retails at £10.99) - I'm a huge fan of Bloom Remedies so looking forward to trying this moisturiser which contains sweet orange, geranium and rose oils along with rosemary, sea buckthorn, sweet almond oil and Vitamin E.  I was really excited to see this product in the box. Review will follow.

Dr Alkaitis Organic Day & Night Cream 5ml samples - I've tried a couple of samples before from this brand and liked them so looking forward to giving these ones a try.  These are worth £6.95 each.

Avril Certified Organic Mascara in Black full size £7 - I haven't heard of this company before. From a French Cosmetic Brand which is new to the UK. Again, looking forward to trying it.  

Alva Stressed Hands Cream 18ml - £2.03 - I received this in an Amitee Box before.  As far as I remember it was nice to use and I can never have enough hand creams! (or lip balms). 

Finally, a box bonus - Avril Eyelash Curler 

Did you get this box?  What are your thoughts?

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.
