Little Treats #11

My last Little Treats post was way back in July! Here's what I've been enjoying recently:


First up is the fabulous Bee Good Youth Enhancing Lift & Brighten Eye Cream 5ml (which I got in the LIB Get the Gloss Box). It's one of the nicest eye creams I've used lately - it's rich but absorbs quickly helping with fine lines and dark circles. I like that it's multi-purpose - you can also use it on fine lines around the lips.

I've wanted to try Balmology's Exotic Rose Beauty Oil for ages so was pleased to pick up this 4ml sample at Naturisimo. It has a lush rose scent and it absorbs easily into the skin nourishing as well as making the skin glow. I'll be adding full size to the ever expanding wishlist.

Glasgow based Beauty Kitchen has been on my radar like forever so it was great to see their Love Me Wonderbalm in Jane's The Dream Box IV. This cinnamon scented balm can be used on lips and other dry areas. I love the cute little tin too! 

Glamour mag are offering the choice of 4 Clinique goodies with the mag this month.  I picked Cherry Pop Lipstick which is a gorgeous glossy red shade and perfect for the forthcoming party season!

New to me brand (which also featured in the Get the Gloss Box with foot cream) is Prismologie and I've been enjoying the very lovely Pink O'Clock Hand & Cuticle Cream with Rose & Rose Quartz 10ml which soothes, moisturises and leaves the hands smelling delicious!

I've been testing out the new Optimal Skin ProMoisturiser (7ml)* by ESPA. It's a rich cream which absorbs easily. It "uses advanced responsive hydration to target the delivery of nutrient-rich, hydrating actives where the skin requires them most". The cream is suitable for all skin types, balances and nourishes. It also has a delicious orange scent and leaves my skin feeling great, really cared for and comfortable.

The Dream Box IV by British Beauty Blogger

I picked up Jane's latest beauty box in association with Latest in Beauty mainly for stocking fillers for friends and a few new bits for me! The box is now sold out but cost £22.95 with free P&P (I had a voucher for 20% off) making it unbelievable value for money.

It's absolutely stuffed full!


Here are the bits I'm keeping:


NUXE Prodigieux Eye Cream (15ml full size - worth £18.50) being a huge NUXE fan I'm looking forward to trying this. It de-puffs and helps with dark circles. Expect a review soon.

I absolutely adore this beautiful scent by Shay & Blue (Framboise Noire) and this little vial (2ml worth £5) will be perfect for popping in my handbag. See my review HERE*.

L'Occitane Almond Oil (35ml - worth £3) I've tried the Almond range before and loved this shower oil.

Erborian CC Creme (15ml full size - worth £17.00) this was the item I was most excited about in the box as it's from a brand I've wanted to try for ages.

Maybelline Dr Rescue SOS Nail Balm (full size - worth £3.99) my nails are always in need of some TLC. 

Beauty Kitchen Love Me Wonderbalm (full size - worth £2.99) this balm has a delicious cinnamon scent. Love!

BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Raise the Bar (1.5g - worth £7) this is my new favourite lipstick shade! Really pretty and perfect for Autumn. 

And onto the bits I'm gifting..


Soap & Glory the Righteous Butter Mini (50ml - worth £2.50) a great cheap and cheerful product and range. Not a product I'm keen on.

REN Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Milk (25ml - worth £2.75) I've used this several times before. A good cleanser but I prefer balms these days.

KMS California Moistrepair Shampoo (75ml - worth £4.50) and KMS California MoistRepair Conditioner (75ml - worth £5.00) a great size but I'm trying to use more natural haircare.

Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Hand Therapy (full size 50g & boxed - worth £9) I've got loads of hand creams to use so this will make a great wee Christmas present.


L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Carbon Black Mascara (full size - worth £10.99) again I'm trying to use more natural mascaras. This one sounds great though!

Crown Brush Pro Studio Contour Brush (full size - worth £9.99) I know one of my nieces will love this! 

The final item is Collection Speedy Blush Stick in Tickled Pink & Cheeky (full size - worth £3.99) I tend to use bronzer rather than blush.

An absolutely fabulous box which is such great value. Did you pick one up? What are your thoughts?
