My Love Me Beauty credits
renewed last week and I was quick to jump into the boutique and see what they
had on offer.
There were far more
accessories than beauty products in this month’s boutique, much to my
disappointment. Being allergic to nickel means that most those products aren’t
suitable for me. Though the pieces themselves are quite nice.
Honestly speaking the
choices this month took me longer than usual, because nothing jumped out at me
to love. But I managed to find four products that I’m excited to try. Read on
to find out more!

A quick reminder. The way
Love Me Beauty works is that you fill out a survey at the beginning, which
generates a list of products as a recommendation for you to choose. The difference
with this subscription box though is that you can pick your own products from
the boutique. You get 60 credits and there is a wide array of products from
skincare to earrings.
Shipping is fast, usually
within 3-4 days of checking out. It’s well packaged within a box, and within
that box is a bubble packed envelope so everything is well protected.
Eye of Horus Lazuli Blue Goddess Pencil
The
first product I chose was the Eye of Horus Lazuli Blue Goddess Pencil. I’ve
tried Eye of Horus branded products before and loved them. I find that the
formula is creamy and doesn’t tug at my eyelids, an important factor when
choosing eyeliners. These liners are formulated with Beeswax, Camuba and
Candellia wax, which all add to the creaminess of it. This is an Australian
brand and a new firm favourite for me. I chose blue as something different to
have in my collection. I have dark brown eyes and find blue helps them pop.
The
next product I chose was something for my hair, it is the Percy & Reed No
Fuss Flawlessness Dry Conditioner. I rarely use dry shampoos or conditioners
but they are handy to have in the cupboards for emergency occasions. It has a
fresh scent to it, there are notes of mint and geranium in the spray. I like the
scent but it might not be to everyone’s taste. I got the foaming treatment mask
in my December box (full review here) and really like it, so I have high hopes
for this one.
Now this product is
something that I’ve seen floating around the net and in stores but I’ve never
used. But having already made my investment in the box back with the above two
products I thought I’d take a risk. This is the Huile Prodigieuse multi-purpose
dry oil, and it’s in a sample size bottle. It can be used on the face, skin and
hair and has great reviews online so am looking forward to trying this.
The last one is something I’ve
never bought before, a massage oil from Omnisens. This is a brand I’ve not
heard of, but it’s a French one and Love Me Beauty was promoting it, so I
thought I might as well use my last 10 credits on this. I don’t often use body
products, and so my body is in for a treat this month. The main ingredients in
this are plant based oils, including grape seed and argan which are great for
moisturising the skin. In this cold winter weather that’s perfect for me.
Altogether I was a little
disappointed with this month’s selection. Nothing really jumped out to me in
the boutique. But I am now quite excited to try out the products. There is
great value in the products for the price you pay as well, so no complaints on
that front.
