The October 2014 Love Lula Beauty Box has arrived and there’s nothing more delightful then receiving a box filled with natural skin loving treats. This month’s box contains an impressive line up and covers all aspects of beauty and excitingly, most of the brands are new discoveries for me.

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 includes 1 full sized product, 5 travel sized samples and 3 sample sachets. The box features Inika, Bodhi & Birch, Yes to Carrots, Dr Lipp, Green People and John Masters Organics. 

1.    Inika Organic Eye Liner –  Full Size RRP £13.50

The Inika brand is certainly a new discovery for me and I was pleased to be introduced to their Certified Organic Eyeliner which came in the shade Black Caviar.

With it’s rich and creamy consistency, the liner glides on smoothly onto the water line giving a pigmented blackest of black solid line in one effortless swipe. This organic formula is also perfect for those with the most sensitive eyes.

Inside the box also includes a complimentary sharpener lid which is great to attach to the liner when you’re on the go or traveling.

I’m incredibly impressed with this eyeliner in particular the depth of the black which really accentuates the eyes. After being on the hunt for a new eye liner the last couple of weeks, I’ve fallen in love with this one which applies effortlessly and doesn’t smudge or make it’s way under my eye area.

2.   Bodhi & Birch Mint Thé Refreshing Bath and Shower Therapy  –  Sample Size 50ml

The Mint Thé refreshing bath and shower therapy gel rejuvenates the body and mind with a revitalising fusion of Peppermint, Spearmint, Eucalyptus, Sweet Marjoram and opulent Frankincense. It’s potent mint scent is very over powering and if you’re looking for a pick-me-up in the morning to awaken your senses this could potentially do the trick.

This invigorating gel leaves your skin highly refreshed and resuscitated, deeply cleansed but not taut or dry and is great for after sports. It can also be used for a therapeutic bath soak.

3.   Dr Lipp Original Lip Balm – Sample Size 3ml

This formula which was originally developed as a nipple balm for breastfeeding women due to its ultra hydrating & hypoallergenic multipurpose properties, is an extremely versatile healing and nourishing balm thanks to it’s one key ingredient which is Lanolin. The formula is 100% natural, hyper allergenic, odourless and contains no parabens.

I already use this lip balm which sits on my bedside table ready for me to apply before I go to bed and it’s great for  dry chapped or sore lips with it’s super moisturising and conditioning formula. It’s the perfect SOS balm for keeping the lips hydrated and soft as we approach the colder months.

The balm also has multi purpose uses and isn’t just restricted for the lips. It soothes dry and sensitive skin and can be used for dry cuticles, dry skin patches, burns and abrasions, sore nipples, split ends and eczema.

4. Yes to Carrots Gentle Cleansing Wipes  – Sample Size 10 wipes

The Yes to brand is an organic line that utilises the natural goodness of fruit and vegetables to bring you a complete skincare range for different skin types.

The Yes to Carrots Gentle Cleansing Wipes are formulated for normal-to-dry skin types looking for a nourishing formula without the fragrance and not only cleanses but moisturises too with the power of carrots and Vitamin E.

The Yes to range boasts a wide selection of wipes for every skin type including their wide array of other skincare products.

The pack comes in a handy travel sized packet which includes 10 wipes.

5. Green People Gentle Cleanser – Travel Size 25ml RRP £4.95

Green People offer over 100 certified organic products in high performance award-winning ranges for all of the family including specialist skin conditions. Their products are packed with over 90% active natural and organic ingredients to protect, nourish, balance and, most importantly, respect the body.

This cleanser which is suitable for all skin types, gently removes all make-up including waterproof mascara and is alcohol-free, rich in moisture-binding and anti-inflammatory actives. It also cleanses away all impurities leaving your skin silky smooth and includes ingredient’s such as Organic Aloe Vera, Calendula, Shea butter, Squalane from Olive oil, Jojoba Esters & Rose Geranium. The scent is truly divine and is mainly dominated by the Rose Geranium which is very  pleasant.

6. Green People Age Defy Soft Buff Skin Exfoliator and sample sachets  – Sample Size 10ml and 2 sachets.

As well as targeting various skin concerns, Green People also have a premium collection called Age Defy which is a unique organic skin care regime for women aged 35+ to tackle the signs of mature skin.

This month’s box features an incredible line up including a good balance of natural and organic beauty treats, most of which were all new discoveries for me. The box also features 9 products which is amazing and this edition is one of my favourites by far from Love Lula.

The box included a mixture of full sized products, travel sized and a few samples sachets this month and featured the brands Inika, Bodhi & Birch, Yes to Carrots, Dr Lipp, Green People and John Masters Organics.

 There are a couple of products I won’t make use out but I am extremely happy with the remainder of the contents. The most exciting discovery for me by far is the Inika Eyeliner pencil which has replaced my current liner and has earned a well deserved spot in my make-up bag!

The Love Lula Beauty Box offers a completely different experience compared to the others boxes and focuses only on all things natural and organic.

Love Lula also included 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 October.

The value of this month’s box is around £25+ beating the cost of the actual box.

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