Miscellaneous haul

I picked up these two shower gels in Waitrose when hubby asked if I wanted something in the beauty isle (he was paying!)  I chose Naked Coco de Mer Body Wash (£4.07) which I love and have run out of and The Little Bubble Co Coconut Creme Bath & Shower Gel (which was on special at £1.99).

I've not tried anything from The Little Bubble Co before and I like that it is free from parabens and is very reasonably priced.  Have you used either of these products before?

I absolutely adore the tea I received in my October Joliebox.  Tastes delicious and in such cute little muslin tea bags.

Imagine my delight when browsing in John Lewis I came across a Lov Organic Tea Gift Selection.  It contains 24 sachets - 2 x each flavour.  It is quite expensive at £15 but would make a great gift.

The teabags are individually wrapped making them great to carry around.

It contains:

2 x Earl Grey
2 x English Breakfast
2 x Rose
2 x Jasmin
2 x Ginger-Lemon
2 x Mint
2 x Four Citrus Fruits
2 x Red Fruits
2 x Orange-Cinamon
2 x Lov is Good (with Fennel and Liquorice)
2 x Lov is Pure (with Green Tea, Apple, Citrus)
2 x Lov is Zen (with Rooibos, Lemon, Caramel, Orange)

I also received a Latest in Beauty Little Beauty Box which contained:

2 x 6ml sachets Berkeley Square Royal Ballet Body Conditioner
1 x mini box Beauty Fixation Make Up Remover
My mystery sample was a bit disappointing - 1 x 20ml Sun Shots Medium SPF25 sun protection - it's winter!

Joliebox Review - October

My October Joliebox just got delivered.  The theme this month is "Pure and Natural".

Here's the contents -

Ritessens Velvet Cleansing Milk - a full size product - 125ml from a French brand I've never heard of before.  This is what I want to see in boxes - products which are new to me.  Free from parabens, SLS, artificial colours etc. It contains Argan oil and natural plant extracts.  This brand offered a choice of cleanser or exfoliant. Looking forward to trying this one out. 

Lov Organic Tea 6 muslin tea bags in Lov is Beautiful - an organic blend of white and green teas and are packed full of antioxidants and zinc which have proven skincare benefits.  Love herbal tea so looking forward to making a brew.  There are some delicious sounding blends on the website.

JASON Bee Healthier Lip Balm Stick - a full size product which retails at £1.99. It's scented with peppermint and packed with shea butter.  I love lip balms so will definitely be happy to use this.

Balance Me Balancing Face Moisturiser 10ml - just received Amarya's October Box which was a Balance Me featured box and included this cream.  I will use it (eventually!) although my heart sank a little when I saw it in Joliebox this month.

Moa The Green Balm sample pot - I don't like the scent of this one so will pass it on.

All in all I was happy with my box this month.  I love Joliemag - I find it a really informative read.  Fleur from Fleur de Force, is this month's cover star.  What are your thoughts on the box?
