The September 2014 Love Lula Beauty Box has arrived and this month it features an incredible line up with a special curated box in partnership with the Soil Association. It’s Organic Beauty Week and this box definitely showcases the best of Organic Beauty and contains 4 full sized products.

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. Love Lula also have a online shop which has a huge selection of the world’s finest natural and organic beauty products.

This month’s box included 4 full sized products and 3 sample sized products. The box features Balm Balm, Skin Blossom, PAI, Essential Care, Bentley Organic and Herbfarmacy. 

1.    Skin Blossom Facial Toner –  Full Size 150ml RRP £5.95

This toner conditions and purifies the skin and contains refreshing ingredients such as witch hazel to tone and tighten pores, Aloe Vera and Glycerin to condition, and subtle essential oils to revive. It’s made with 97% organic ingredients and is suitable for all skin types.

The key ingredients within this potion is ideal for my skin type. This toner has a pleasant scent and smells quite therapeutic.

This full sized toner comes in a generous 150ml and is a great budget friendly toner which contains no nasties and is kind to the skin.

2.   Balm Balm Little Miracle Rosehip Serum  –  Full Size 30ml RRP £13.25

Balm are known for their 100% natural and 100% organic philosophy and their collection ranges from skincare to home fragrances.

The Little Miracle Rosehip Serum is a rich and refined blend of Rosehip, Jojoba and Borage oils. Infused with Frankincense and Madarin for a total rejuvenating experience.

Unfortunately this isn’t for my skin type but I’m sure someone will take this off my hands.

3. Herbfarmacy Mallow Beauty Balm – Sample Size 15g. Full Size 30g RRP £14.50

Founded by Botanist  Dr Paul Richards, Herbfarmacy products are all made on a small herb farm in Herefordshire and they use Soil Association certified ingredients in their products.

This award winning Mallow Beauty Balm is full of Marshmallow and Muselin which is an infused oil that has anti-wrinkle properties. The balm softens and deeply moisturises the skin leaving it smooth and protected.

The formula can be used in place of your daily moisturiser or if you’re looking for an intensive night treatment this is perfect due to it’s very nourishing and luxurious rich texture. This is definitely more suited for those who have dry thirsty skin.

4. Bentley Organic Moisturising Hand Santizer – Full Size 50ml RRP £3.65

This hand bag sized sanitizer is made with 90% Organic Ingredients and comes in the form of a mousse rather than a gel. It’s made with a unique formula that is gentle on you but hygienically cleans and contains Organic Aloe Vera which moisturises your hands.

I’m not a fan of hand santizers mainly due to the high alcohol content these contain leaving your hands horribly dry. This however contains no alcohol and is paraben and fragrance free and works amazingly well at keeping your hands germ free and soft at all times.

5. Essential Care Organic Lip Silk – Full Size 4.5g RRP £5.50

This lip balm has a nourishing blend of beeswax, shea butter, coconut oil and orange essential oil to moisturise, repair and protect your lips in all weathers.

It’s smooth formula literally glides onto the lips and there’s not a hint of a mint or a medicated scent which is great! It’s really light weight and literally feels like silk once on.

With Autumn showing signs of it’s arrival I rely on a good lip balm to get me through the colder weather stream and this could possibly be one of favourites.

6.PAI Skincare Samples – Sample Size

Lastly there are two offerings of PAI skincare samples, an exfoliator and a day cream.

The Pai Kukui & Jojoba Bead Skin Brightening Exfoliator marks an innovative and ultra-gentle approach to exfoliation. Unlike other exfoliators, whose uneven grains can damage and irritate healthy skin, Pai’s clever Micro-Sphere system is formulated to protect as it polishes and is suitable for sensitive and problem skin, including skin prone to redness, eczema and acne.

The Pai Hydrating Day Cream is formulated to hydrate and protect dry sensitive skin using only the cleanest organic ingredients. It’ delicately scented with Jasmine and May Chang leaving the skin hydrated and replenished.

My Verdict

This month’s box features an incredible line up with a special curated box in partnership with the Soil Association. It’s Organic Beauty Week and this box definitely showcases the best of Organic Beauty and contains 4 full sized products which is amazing.

This month’s box included 4 full sized products and 3 sample sized products. The box features the brands Balm Balm, Skin Blossom, PAI, Essential Care, Bentley Organic and Herbfarmacy.

Love Lula have executed this box very well to complement Organic Beauty week and whilst there are a couple of products I won’t make use out I am extremely happy with the remainder of the contents.

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. Love Lula really do curate good quality boxes.

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 September.

The value of this month’s box is around £35.60 beating the cost of the box.

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