Vertue Beauty Box: April: Vitamin Sea

April's Vertue Beauty Box is absolutely fantastic! The theme is "Vitamin Sea". The box is bi-monthly so the next one will be in June. Find out more information HERE. I was very kindly sent a box* to review this month and was delighted with the contents. So what's inside...

WOW! Amazing and there are 2 new to me brands (happy face) and all new to me products.

There are two products from new to me brand Seatox. The products inside are their Selkie Smooth Seaweed Bath Soak (£6.95) and Kelp Help Wild Kelp Powder (£8.95). I'm looking forward to testing these out and reviews will follow.

From American brand, Earth Harbor we have their Rose Ruby Gemstone Face Mist 60ml (approx £14.50) which is very exciting as the brand looks just like something I'd go for. Again, a review will follow.

From Pacifica there is a really lovely eyeshadow palette (Mystical) (£15.49) (I don't think I've ever had a palette in a beauty box). The shades are really wearable and I'm looking forward to testing it out.

The final two items are a Hydrea Fina Silk Sea Sponge which is great for facial cleansing and gentle exfoliation or for applying foundation. I used to buy these sponges on holiday in Greece so looking forward to re-visiting!

From The Salt Parlour is a tin of their DETOX Salt & Sulphur Scrub (try me size). I've used this brand before and love their products. The final treat is 20% off code to use in the Vertue Beauty shop.

Vertue Beauty Box: Mindful Beauty

The Vertue Beauty Box* is new to me. It's a bi-monthly box which costs £37 for a box delivered every two months, six months pre-pay which costs £105 (3 boxes every two months) or twelve month pre-pay which costs £195 (6 boxes delivered every two months).

It is more expensive than most boxes but the value is superb. Inside November's box which is themed Mindful Beauty is:

WOW! There are 3 new to me brands nestling in there! The value of the box is a whopping £72.50!

I'm already a huge fan of MOA and reviewed their Daily Cleansing Ritual HERE. Although known to me, this is a lovely addition to the box.

From gorgeous Isla Apothecary there are two scrubs - Lemongrass & Rosemary Renew Foot Scrub (120g) and Blood Orange & Vanilla Sugar Scrub (120g). I've used both of these before. These aren't currently in my stash so I'm very happy to have them back in my life!

From new to me brand Kindred+Wild is a 50ml bottle of their Lavender & Chamomile Herb Oil which can be used on the face, body and as a bath oil (I love a muti-use product!) Review will follow.

I love beauty boxes which pop in some healthy extras:

Be. Tribe is a new brand to me. I got their Fix Up blend which contains pea protein, Acai, Acerola Cherry, Maqui, Goji berries, Baobab, Camu Camu, Beet, rodiola Rosea and Himalayan Salt. Add to your smoothie for an instant boost.

The final item and a free gift was a delicious bar of organic dark chocolate from Doisy & Dam.

I think the Vertue Beauty Box* is fantastic value, stuffed full of full sizes and a real treat. Do you already subscribe? Or are you tempted? (like me!)
