Look Fantastic November Box

So if you follow me on Instagram you would have seen that I got my first look fantastic box during the week. I have tried a couple of these beauty box subscription services before but I've never been particularly impressed by any of them, but let me tell you this look fantastic one is a whole other level. I decided to try this one out after my friend Orla recommended it to me. Now Orla is just as obsessed with all things beauty as I am (if not more) so I knew when she recommended this it had to be a winner! She had got it the previous month and said it was the best beauty box she had ever gotten( now this is a serious claim if you knew how many of these Orla has tried). And let me tell you she is not wrong, I am SO happy with it!!

Look fantastic is a great website that has a brilliant range of hair, make up and skincare products and they have only recently become a player in the world of beauty boxes. So far so good for them as their boxes almost always sell out every month. 

The November box contains 6 products, all of which I will definitely be using, which is saying something as any time I have got beauty box before I can't say I have really made good use of any of the products. The reason I think this one is so impressive is because it contains some really high end, cult products which is exactly what you need from a beauty box. We all want be buy these cult products that claim to work miracles but often the price can be off putting. When you can't be sure if they're going to work for you it's hard to justify spending half your wages on yet another cleanser or serum or whatever it may be. So the opportunity to test them out is just what you need, and then you can console yourself with the fact that it's definitely worth the money :) 

First up is the world renowned Eve Lom cleanser. Famously described by Vogue magazine as "probably the best cleanser in the world". It's a balm and unlike any other cleanser I've used before. It claims to give a unique cleansing experience, removing make up whilst also toning and exfoliating the skin. The tub is a perfect 30ml size and quite generous considering it's such a high end brand. I am so looking forward to trying to this out and shall report back and let you know if I become addicted to this cult favourite.


Next up we have another favourite among celebs,models and make up artists the world over. The GLAMGLOW Youthmud Tinglexfoliate Treatment. Honestly this is the one product I'm most excited about. I have yet to see a bad review of this mask, it claims to be a "10 minute facial in a jar", I mean who wouldn't want to try it? 


Onto the final brand which I am familiar with from the box which is Nuxe. The Nuxellence Jeunesse Youth and Radiance Revealing Fluid. I love Nuxe products and this is actually one that I hadn't heard of. It's basically a moisturiser that is designed to recharge the skin,boost radiance and give your complexion a clearer more youthful look. Sounds good to me, here's hoping!

The last skincare product is the Monu Recovery Balm. This is a brand that's new to me so I'm intrigued to see what it's like. Designed for sensitive or stressed skin, it will definitely come in handy when I'm having a breakout or my skin is feeling tired after a few days in work. The top tip in the little look fantastic book suggests using it as an overnight mask so I will certainly give that a go and report back.

The one and only make up product is the New Cid Cosmetics Lip and Cheek Tint. I have a slight addiction to lip crayons so this is already a hit with me. The shade I got is Rose tint, a nice warm pink colour so hopefully the formula is nice and I'll get good use out of it.

Lastly we have the Hand Chemistry Intense Youth Complex Hand Cream. I have seen this brand in pharmacies but have yet to try anything from the range so this is the perfect opportunity. Hand cream is something I use a lot of in my work as a nurse so I was delighted to see this in the box. I'm going to bring it to work over the next few weeks and really put it to the test!

I think you'll agree it's a great mix of products and I can't wait to get stuck in and try them all!! If you like what you see and want to get your hands on the December box head over and get your order in now because it's sure to sell out fast.
