The September 2014 You Beauty Discovery Box has arrived and this month they celebrate their 1st Birthday in style with another fantastic menu.

“You Beauty Discovery” is a monthly beauty subscription service. The box consists of 2 selected hair, make-up and beauty products from well-known and new brands and they also include 2-3 bonus samples. Unlike the other subscription boxes you get to choose two products of your choice from a diverse selection menu each month.

This month’s selection menu had a great variety to chose from which made the decision process even harder. You really can’t fault this beauty box as it’s incredibly good value for money. It’s not surprising that on the 3rd September majority of the products had already sold out which is a first since I’ve been subscribed especially in that time frame!

 My box included 2 full sized products of my choice, Toni & Guy Volume Plumping whip (Birthday bonus)2 Crabtree and Evelyn tea bags, £25.00 Hello Fresh Gift Card and a You beauty discovery make-up sponge.

1. Wild About Beauty Nutrilips Colour Lipstick SPF15 – Full Size RRP £15.00

It was only recently that I was introduced to this brand which is owned by Louise Rednapp along with make up artist Kim Jacob and I instantly fell in love with the pretty packaging and the quality.

I received the shade Bobbie which is a nude colour but not a naked nude it’s more of a brown tone. This light weight nourishing lipstick gives a subtle hint of colour and a natural glossy finish. It’s infused with added beneficial ingredients and SPF protection which is super moisturising when applied.

I’m not a fan of nude colours and whilst a lot of people rave about them I am yet to the find the perfect nude shade for my skin tone. This isn’t the nudest of nudes and I quite like the colour which is wearable and perfect for the upcoming Autumn months.

 

2. Mavala Mavadry Time-Save Fast Drying Nail Finish – Full Size 5ml  RRP £6.75

The Mavala fast drying nail coat definitely stood out for me this month in the selection menu this month mainly because I’m so inpatient when it comes to drying time and being such a fidget I am prone to smudging my nails even before they have dried and there’s nothing more frustrating to find you have smudged a perfect paint job.

This top coat dries in a few seconds and prevents flaking and enhances the nail colour too giving a lovely sheen. The Mavala Mavadry Nail Polish Dryer dries your polish instantaneously. It also reduces chipping and prevents smearing and smudging.

I can’t believe how quick my nails dried with this formula it’s pretty impressive and really brightened up the colour of the varnish.

I will no longer be waving my hands in the air to dry my nails thanks to this incredible formula. This is a revolutionary breakthrough for me and most importantly it’s a time saver and I can get on with chores without worrying about my nails.

3. Tony & Guy Volume Plumping Whip – Full Size 90ml RRP £7.00

This is a Birthday bonus item in this month’s box which all subscribers will receive.

LuLu Kennedy, one of the most influential names on the British fashion scene and the founder of Fashion East has helped TONI & GUY dress up four best selling products including the Glamour Volume Plumping Whip which creates all-day body and bounce from the roots, without flyaways.

This smells really nice and the formula isn’t sticky. You apply a walnut sized amount to towel dried hair before heat styling.

4. Extra Samples within the box:

You Beauty Discovery have been quite generous this month with their extra samples including two tea bag samples from the Crabtree and Evelyn collection, £25 Hello Fresh Gift card and a make up sponge.

My Verdict

You Beauty Discovery celebrate their 1st Birthday in style with another fantastic menu and I’m really happy with my box.  This month’s menu had a great variety to chose from which made the decision process even harder. You really can’t fault this beauty box as it’s incredibly good value for money.

My box this month’s contained 3 full sized products and 4 extra samples.

The value of my box is worth £28.75  which is more than the price of the box itself. This month I’ve discovered the amazing Mavadry top coat which works incredibly well and is such a time saver. I only wished that I was introduced to this sooner.

The magazine contained within the box includes various discount codes for all of the brands which have been featured this month which is great if you want to buy further products.

“You Beauty Discovery” impresses me every month. I always look forward to seeing their menu at the start of the month. Their wide selection of products in their menu has something for everyone and to date I’ve not been disappointed once . This box is a complete steal for £6.95 and worth every penny.
