My Love Lula Beauty Box arrived and I couldn’t wait to discover this months box.

LoveLula brings together an unparalleled selection of the world’s finest natural and organic beauty products. Their brands are hand-picked and tested: products are created using only the highest grades of ethically sourced natural and organic ingredients and must be effective, luxurious and guilt-free.

They insist on NO parabens, NO SLS’s and NO animal testing. Beyond this they seek out the most innovative companies and strive to support morally run and environmentally driven businesses.

Upon opening my box I wasn’t overly excited compared to last month’s box however now I have reviewed the products I am quite liking it.

My box included 2 full sized products and 4 samples . The box  consisted of  Skincare and Body Products this month.

1.    Suki Exfoiliate Foaming Cleanser –  Full Size 30ml RRP £10.00

This is refreshing and reinvigorating Exfoliate Foaming cleanser  and contains sugar crystals, powdered rice & 100% pure foamers combined to eliminate blemishes and impurities, leaving your complexion radiant and youthful-looking.

This is suitable for all skin types, this hydroxy cleanser kickstarts your skin’s natural collagen production process to give you plump and firm skin, whilst lemongrass purifies your pores to keep your complexion clean and clear. The energising blend of essential oils invigorate your senses, making it the perfect morning pick-me-up.

I normally dread skincare products in the beauty boxes as most of them are not for my skin type however I will certainly be giving this a go. This has great reviews also.

I would probably use this once a week instead of daily more so when my skin is in need of some extra TLC!

2.   Urban Veda Purifying Exfoilating Facial Polish–  Sample Size 20ml. Full Size 125ml RRP £8.99

For those of you who know me I am a big fan of the Urban Veda Purifying range! I have all of their skincare products and I really cannot recommend them enough – they really do hold a special place in my heart. Their products really agree with my skin leaving it blemish free and less oily.

This exfoiliator is naturally formulated for a deep cleanse, their revitalising scrub contains natural Pumice to exfoliate, cold-pressed Neem oil and refreshing essential oils to remove impurities and treat blackheads. Antioxidant-rich botanicals work in synergy with naturally astringent herbals and collagen-boosting extracts to reduce excess sebum, tighten pores and leave skin hydrated. I use this a few times a week. It’s quite gritty and certainly not harsh which in turn leave my skin soft and clean. A product which has all of the properties you would want from an exfoliator.

This product also was the winner of the Natural Health 2014 beauty awards.

Although I already have this product it’s always nice to have a sample size for travelling or weekends away.

3.   MOX Botanicals Bath Milk in Rose Petal – Full Size 70g (Two Sachets) RRP £8.00

I am not familiar with this brand however it appears to be from the US.

Packed with the most luxurious of ingredients, Mox Botanicals contain Organic whole milk and nutrient-rich sea salt combined with various botanicals to provide the ultimate at-home-spa experience. Packed in oversized teabags, you can choose to allow the ingredients to slowly dissolve and infuse into your bath water. Or, you can empty the sachet directly into your water and enjoy the botanical elements floating free in your bath!

These smell amazing and quite luxurious. I can’t wait to try these and think I will go with option 2 – the float free factor!

4. La Claree Gentle Cleansing Milk – Sample Size. Full Size 150ml RRP £19.00

I received the moisturising cream from this brand in a previous box in February and loved it.

This is a cleansing milk concentrated in active plant antioxidants, its texture is creamy, soft and non-greasy. It cleans and removes all traces of makeup and impurities while preserving the fat from the skin. Well hydrated, the skin regains suppleness, comfort and radiance.

I doubt I will use due to my problematic skin.

5.  KAE Beauty Oils – Sample Size ( 2 vials). Full Size 50ml RRP £31.00 – £37.00

This is a french brand which I have never come across.

The first vial sample was Huile de beauté  which is a pure satin protecting oil for face, body and hair. It prevents and reduces the signs of ageing, dehydration and damage caused by exposure to sun, heat, cold, wind, air-conditioning, seawater, chlorine, smoke, pollution and skin irritations. It leaves entire body smooth, soft, and deeply hydrated.

The second vial was Beaute Scintillante. This organic dry oil has a subtle flower fragrance and is a unique concentrate of vitamin E and Omega 6.It nourishes, repairs and softens face, body and hair in a single gesture. It illuminates the tan and gives the skin a golden sheen.Its natural iridescent particles and its satin texture are suitable for all skin and hair types.

I’m not a fan of oil based products and therefore probably won’t use these however may try using as a treatment on the ends of my hair.

My Verdict

Upon opening my box I wasn’t overly excited compared to last month however once I started reviewing the contents I wasn’t too disappointed. The box contained known and new brand samples and definitely made the reviewing process more interesting however I was surprised that the box contained two exfoliators!

My box included 2 full sized products and 4 samples . The box  consisted of  mainly Skincare and Body  Products this month. Personally I would of liked to have seen a better mix of products.

This is in the same price range as the other beauty  boxes and you are getting a completely different experience compared to the others boxes in relation to the products .  All the products in the Love Lula Beauty Boxes have no nasties.

Love Lula also gave a 20% off promotional code to use on their website on any of the brands which were featured in this month’s box which is valid throughout June which is a nice bonus.

Overall, an good box this month  however there’s  a few products which I probably won’t use  however I also understand that It’s hard to please every subscriber!

This month’s box was worth around £25.00. 

If you love organic and natural products this is definitely the box for you. I have discovered some wonderful brands thanks to Love Lula.

Lets see what Love Lula brings next month.
