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.

What are your thoughts?

Carmine - January

My Carmine box has arrived (and it was addressed correctly! yah!).  I am liking the box this month.

I've never used false eyelashes - they look a bit scary but going to try them out.  I received B159 and I am quite pleased with the ones I received.

I am also happy to see Korres Wild Rose Moisturising & Brightening Cream (this was in Boudoir Prive) as I loved it.  A good size for travel/try me.

I am also pleased to see the Balance Me Radiance Face Oil in the box (5ml), its got an fruity spicy scent and I'm looking forward to trying it out - its a decent sized sample (you wear it under your moisturiser/night cream).

I love baths so the Himalayan Pink Salt will be nice to use (single use mini bag).  It's apparently good for detoxing.

Finally, an Eyeko Fat Eye Stick in Petrol Blue - I quite like the colour.  I'm going to keep this subscription for another month (at least).

Did you get Carmine?  What did you think of the box?
