Uh oh, when Look Fantastic start pulling out their Christmas inspired boxes it’s pretty much an indication that we are officially nearing into festive territory – where the months have gone this year I really don’t know! Reminiscent of snow, sparkle, and all things Christmas the *November #LFSparkle box is filled with products to help replenish and regain our natural glow in preparation for the party season in addition to a copy of Elle Magazine and all those important tips and tricks to get the most out of your products. It’s another well rounded edition showcasing a little bit of everything with well known brands in addition to some new discoveries too.

The Look Fantastic box offers a selection of handpicked, must have beauty fixes wrapped in a beautifully presented box and delivered straight to your door. The beauty box will always include a minimum of six products and offers a selection of skin care, hair care, cosmetics and body products, catering for every beauty lover.

This month’s box is filled with a generous mix of treats and showcases L’Oreal, Sebastian Professional, Bloom and Blossom, Monu, Look Good Feel Better and Model Co.

1.  L’Oreal Professional Mythic Oil– Travel Size 30ml

By now, you’re probably all bored to the death with my rants about my unruly hair so I’ll spare you all the details in this post!  However, one product I’ve been curious about is the Mythic Oil by L’Oreal Professional and judging by the description it’s definitely got my name all over it!

Enriched with a blend of avocado and grape seed, the oil is applied before blow drying and is perfect for all hair types and promises to enhance each strand to leave you with a smooth, shiny and frizz-free finish. Did I mention it smells beautiful too!

2.  Sebastian Professional Volupt Spray – Travel Size 50ml

I’ve received quite a few Sebastian products in previous boxes mainly shampoos and conditioners which I don’t get much use out of as I have to use a specific products for my hair but the Volupt Spray is something I’m looking forward to trying out.

This unique and effective non-greasy spray is formulated with cushion particle technology which works to combine full-on volume and sensual softness for a stunning salon perfect finish. It also contains a heat protectant which not only protects against heat styling but it’s a great way to simplify your morning routine without using multiple products!

3.  Bloom and Blossom Revitalizing Foot and Leg Spray – Travel Size 50ml

Described as a best-seller, the Revitalising Leg and Foot Spray by Bloom and Blossom was a great little find for me in the summer after I discovered it inside another box so I’m happy to have another in my possession. Helping to alleviate water retention and refresh tired and heavy legs, swollen ankles and feet, this travel sized version is the perfect size to keep in your handbag for use during a stuffy commute or after a long day in heels, and can even be applied directly over tights. 

4.  Monu Soothing Touch Recovery Balm   – Travel Size 25ml

The Monu soothing touch recovery balm is targeted specifically towards sensitive or stressed skin and is such a handy addition inside this month’s box especially for those who suffer from winter flare ups. The gentle formula provides immediate relief to soothe irritation and reduce inflammation to all skin types, especially sensitive or over worked skin and also hydrates dry, thirsty skin to leave it feeling refreshed, renewed and perfectly soft.

Formula-wise it felt soothing and calming on my skin and while it’s been labelled as a balm it is in fact light weight yet hydrating and blends easily into the skin without leaving a greasy film on your skin. I’ve used this a couple of times in the evening before bed as the beautiful Soft Rose and Bergamot essential oils really calm the senses and the best bit I wake up with wonderfully soft skin!

5.  Angled Blending Brush from Look Good Feel Better – RRP £6.99

I think it’s great that the Look Good Feel Good charity have their very own collection of make up brushes created through the expertise of brush specialists to raise funds to improve self esteem and quality of life of those who are undergoing cancer treatment, something which I really support and really is a truly fantastic cause. Inside this month’s box you can expect to see a soft, good quality blending brush that’s ideal achieving a defined finish especially when blending around the crease.

6.  Model Co Blush Cheek Powder – Full Size RRP £14.00

Wow the ModelCo.’s Peach Bellini Blush Cheek Powder really packs a punch! This blusher has a rich, soft texture and is super pigmented to create a fresh, glowy flush. The colour payoff is quite strong but it can be blended down to a barely there finish if you prefer more of a natural look, the shade is really pretty too.

My Verdict

So I imagine a lot of subscribers were probably happy with what they got inside this month’s #LFSparkle edition as Look Fantastic have come up with a complete kit guaranteed to make us shine in preperation for the festive season! In terms of the line up, they’ve featured a good balanced menu with products focusing on skin care, hair, nails and make up all of which are generous in size so you’ll definitely be able to give them a good trial run. In addition to the above, there’s also the usual copy of Elle Magazine, something I love seeing inside my box as it’s a great way to keep up to date with all the latest fashion and beauty trends (in my case it’s usually on my commute to work!). While there was one nitpicky disappointment with this box (namely the repeated brands) I was still pretty happy with it overall and I’m particularly excited to try out the Mythic Oil and the Volupt Spray plus there’s an incredible seven products on board so it’s a true treat this month. 

The Look Fantastic Beauty Box without a doubt gives you ample opportunity to try more upmarket beauty brands without the hefty price tag and for only £15.00 it’s a great way to trial beauty products from brands we all love and know alongside some new discoveries too.
