New box!

So last week Carmine announced its merge with GlossyBox.......devastated would be my feelings on that matter! The Carmine box in my opinion was far superior to GlossyBox it was consistent and FAIR!! But yeah its gone! I only hope the "merge" will lead to GlossyBox improving but we'll see! ANYWAY, so I wanted to fill my Carmine gap and came across SheSaidBeauty. 
Theres loads of codes around at the moment to get 25% off your first box and its a £1 cheaper than all the others at £11.95 inc P&P a month and it operates the same with monthly or yearly subscriptions cancel anytime! So here it is;


It comes in a Hot pink postal box and opens to reveal a cute turquoise box that opens via a flap at the front! Inside is hot pink tissue & ribbon and then nestling in the straw like filling were the following goodies;
Filthy Gorgeous Nail Polish in Valentine full size, its a deep red I like it but I have this colour already so that'll be gifted to someone!
Mischa Barton pink pop lip balm, Full size,  this I really like its not a strong colour just a hint and it made my lips feel good!! also it has SPF15 and vitamins which according to the blurb will make your lips more kissable so here's hoping!!
Bellapierre Shimmer Powder in Champagne Full size, Its a shimmer powder its a good colour for the summer so yes I'll use it and yes its nice again to have another full size included!
Bharti Vyas Face & Neck polisher sample, smells ok is all I can really say as I havent tried it, it came with a huge leaflet of instructions and sales pitch so we'll see!
Comfort Zone Body Expert kit very cute box of generous sized sachet samples again haven't tried it but will, its apparently going to make my body beach ready.....doubtful as to do that I need to join a Gym stop eating crap and generally try harder but we'll see how it makes my skin feel!!
BONUS Erno Laszlo The Hollywood Collection, I like a bonus who doesn't! Got this in my Harrods GB so have actually tried it and I did really like it so nice little extra 
BONUS Lindt Lindor mini Chocolate Egg, really nice touch to get an Easter egg in a beauty box love it! Going done a treat with my cuppa as I type!! (could be a contributing factor to my failure of the beach body!!)  

That was my box I liked it It's a nice mix of make-up and skincare I liked the two bonus items as well really nice touch. I'd had a snoop around the net to see what others had thought and it generally had great reviews so here we are and box number one is a thumbs up. I like that they do sneak peaks when the boxes are released so if your impatient like me you can ruin the surprise and I like the mix of brands you have high end with middle range and in other boxes they've had low end products but all products are nice and the boxes really seem to offer excellent value for money so onwards we shall go and see what next month brings! 
If you want to try it here's a link I'll get a referral which would be ace but if not go over to their site any way as its got a great feel to it very social and interactive :)

  1. I'd love to try the Erno Laszlo samples - heard great things. I cancelled after the first box but this looks a good box x
