Love Me Beauty Box - February

After last month's fabulous box I kept my subscription for Love Me Beauty for February. There weren't any new choices for me but there were still things available I was happy to have in my stash. 

Here's what I chose:

I'm a huge fan of the lovely Eye of Horus Eye Liners so I picked up a shade in Bronze Amulet, a sparkly brown which normally costs around £15 (the box is £13.95 including P&P)

I love Therapie so was happy to pick up another Boost Hair & Body Wash 50ml (worth £10) and the gorgeous Restore Aura Spray 30ml (worth £10).

My final item is a mini 15ml of Omnisens Delice Passion Massage Oil (you can buy this range at Love Lula). It has a mouthwatering sweet coconut scent.

Minvita Baobab Body Oil* - I simply love this lush, super moisturising oil which is perfect for dry winter skin. 100% natural it absorbs instantly nourishing the skin, improving skin's elasticity, reducing the appearance of stretch marks, intensely moisturising and helping with bruising and scaring. 

Cold pressed from the seeds of the Baobab Superfruit it's high in Vitamins A, D, E, F, B1 and B2 along with Phosphorous, Iron and Protein. It featured in one of my Christmas gifts posts.

Eye of Horus Charcoal Goddess Eyeliner - simply love the staying power and colour of this. One of my favourite eyeliners.

Jo Loves White Rose & Lemon Leaves - one of my favourite perfumes. See my review HERE.

Balm Balm Neroli Floral Water Hydrosol* - a deliciously scented spritz which freshens and uplifts. See my review HERE. 

Green People Ho Wood & Red Mandarin Hand Cream* - this came in a Christmas pack. See my review HERE. Love the scent and great moisturising qualities.

My third choice is a product I absolutely love Skin & Tonic Steam Clean (15ml) - a deliciously minty balm which removes all make up leaving your skin fresh, renewed and deeply clean.

I love Philip Kingsley's Elasticizer and the box includes a 20ml size which is perfect for holidays/try me. It leaves the hair looking healthy, super shiny and in great condition. One for the holiday bag.

My final picks were two beauty items. Having loved Eye of Horus previously I picked the full size eyeliner being offered in Scarab Sapphire, a deep navy blue shade. Know this will be well used!  Burt's Bees Lip Crayon in hawian smolder a pretty pink shade, again a full size.
