Little Known Box August 2017

Beauty subscription boxes are now more popular then ever and are a great way to not only have products delivered straight to your door every month, they also give you the chance to try out new brands and also products you might not normally go for. Little Known Box does just that as they specialise in creating a box filled with brands you probably haven't heard of/used before.

 

I was actually surprised with the contents of this box as most beauty boxes only have one full size product and the rest are sample size, but this box has 3 out of the five being full size! When I open it up you could definitely smell the soap, but as they have curated it to delight the senses this is completely what you would expect.

The makeup pieces are a Saturated Colour Lip Vinyl in a gorgeous pillar box red shade. Although it looks so sticky on the applicator (which is beautifully shaped) it actually applies so easily and just feel a little tacky but manageable. I actually have a YouTube tutorial coming soon using this, so keep an eye out for that! The Second is from Cougar Beauty - a brand I've never heard of before - and is a 6 Shades of Nude eyeshadow palette. This is so gorgeous with all the shimmery shades and makes a perfect bronzer/highlight particularly if you have a tan! It does have a bit of fall out but the pigment makes up for that.

The rest are skincare and he one I am so excited to try out is the Maison Meunier Body Scrub which is another one of the coffee ones but I always find these suit my skin so well. I also love how simply the packing is for this and even though it is a sample size, you could still get a couple of uses out of it. The Friendly Soap is a brand I've heard of but have never bought, so I'm so glad this was included! The one I received is Tea Tree and Turmeric and this is perfect for me as I use tea tree oil anyway and it makes such a huge difference to my skin. Lastly, the MONU Skin Relaxing Body Oil which combines sandalwood and rosewood essential oils which have amazing skin caring properties as well as smelling incredible!

I've been so impressed by this Little Known Box as it not only contains mainly full size products, it's also introduced me to some new incredible brands that I may not have heard of otherwise. The box itself is so simple but classy with the box then gold text and as it is filled with paper, it keeps everything secure when shipping. You can get Little Known Box as a monthly subscription or just as a one off for yourself or a gift for £15.95.
