Look Incredible Deluxe Beauty Box February 2018 Review
Look incredible are a company that provide monthly ( Standard box is every two months, Deluxe box is every month) subscription boxes both standard (£25 pm) and deluxe (£35 pm). The monthly boxes contain 4/5 full sized beauty products. I'm subscribed to the deluxe box which contains brands such as Chanel, Dior, Tarte, Too Faced and many many more. £35 might seem like a lot but when the total product value for each deluxe box is usually between £90-£100+ it's a no brainer. Once again it's like the Look Incredible team can read my mind, this is getting creepy now. 3 out of the 4 items in this box I have been needing/wanting to buy in some shape or form. Yet another months box has not disappointed me, further backing my claim that this is the best subscription box I've EVER had.
Cargo Cosmetics Getaway Eye Shadow Palette, £34.
I had been looking at this palette for a while and wasn't sure whether or not to buy it as the colours aren't that 'me'. I tend to stick to warm tones like gold, orange, and bronze, and don't often go out of my comfort zone. However the more I played around with this palette, the more I loved the colours and started creating looks in my head that I could work with. I love Cargo eye shadows, I have a couple of other palettes and they're always super pigmented and blendable. What I also love is that they set out their palettes in 3 quads and 6 duos making it even easier to achieve a great make up look. This palette also couldn't have come at a better time as I'm off on my own little 'getaway' to Lanzarote on Sunday! My favourite shades in this palette are the first three in the top row, 'Roadtrip', 'Journey' and 'Luggage', three gorgeous shimmer shades.

Utan & Tone Firming Coffee Scrub, £19.99.
I don't ever fake tan, I have white as snow skin and I actually quite like it that way. So as for 'prepping' your skin before tanning I can't tell you whether it helps or not. I do however have super dry skin, so I'm always looking for a good body scrub. I've tried one coffee scrub before and really liked it so was desperate to try another and was actually looking at different ones to buy when this one rocked up in my box. Firstly it smells incredible, it's made from freshly ground coffee beans, virgin coconut oil and vitamin E. It smells like something delicious I've eaten before but I can't remember what! It has a creamy formula that doesn't feel harsh on your skin and you can use it on your body as well as your face. It claims to tighten, tone, reduce cellulite and stretch marks. Massage it into damp skin in the shower or bath and leave on for up to 10 minutes. As I've only used this once I can't comment on whether or not it's claims are actually legitimate, if I find they are, I'll do a proper review soon!

The Balm Meet Matte Hughes in Dedicated, £15.
Back in December I received a lip liner from The Balm which actually turns out to be super similar to the colour of this matte lipstick which is super useful! When I first saw the colour I was a little bit disappointed as I'm super boring when it come's to lip colour and only ever stick to nude shades but when I applied it, I found that I actually quite liked the colour. The formula isn't patchy and doesn't dry out your lips, it's actually quite lightweight. It's mostly long wearing but does tend to start coming off after eating. It claims to smell like vanilla mint but I personally think it smells like chocolate mint. Although I do like this product I've based my rating on colour wise and how rarely I think I'll wear it.
Rating- 3/5.
Shiseido Perfect Mascara Full Definition, £24.
I've been wanting to try a new mascara for a while now as I use the same one constantly and although I love it, I want to branch out slightly. This one interested me as I've never heard of the brand before and it claims to give you volume whilst elongating your lashes, which if you've ever read any of my previous blog posts you'll probably know
that I have stupidly short stubby lashes and it takes a miracle to get any decent volume or length. It has a smudge proof finish and contains a camellia oil complex which nourishes and conditions your lashes to keep them thick and healthy. I only tend to use mascara with a plastic brush as I find any others just don't give me the separation or lift my lashes need so it will be interesting to see how I get on with this one. I'm yet to try this mascara out yet but if you go on over to my instagram (shameless self promo soz) I'm sure I'll be keeping you up to date on how I'm getting on with it while I'm away!
Overall box rating- 4/5.
Overall box value- £92.99.
