This month's Love Me Beauty box had a Valentine's theme complete with some gorgeous red packaging & a special surprise product. If you're fed up of beauty boxes containing tiny samples of products you don't care about then you should probably think about switching to Love Me Beauty. Every month they offer you a choice of three different menus so you know exactly what to expect when you open your package. They consistently provide subscribers with full size products & generous samples so you will always get your money's worth. I opted for menu one this month & here is what I received:
Inner Me Beautify Me Vitamin Complex
Everyone who knows me knows that I am a crazy supplement junkie so I was really excited to see this included in the box. This packet contains a two week supply of pills that provide you with nutrients that aim to improve your hair, skin & nails. I found myself nodding along to the ingredient list as it contains things like Biotin, Zinc, Copper & Selenium which are things I've taken with great results. It was brilliant to get this as a sample because the pack normally costs £15 - more than the price of the entire beauty box! For that reason I personally wouldn't repurchase it because I can get these things cheaper & in higher quantities from Holland & Barrett. However if you're not well-versed in the world of health supplements then this is a very simplified way of getting the nutrients you need.
Percy & Reed No-Fuss Flawlessness Dry Conditioner
I was very intrigued by this product. We've all heard of dry shampoo but dry conditioner? It seems like a weird concept & the results are pretty weird too. It has that same powdery feeling as dry shampoo & it does get rid of excess oils. It refreshes the hair and adds some volume, texture & movement. If you're doing a hairstyle that requires unwashed hair like a beehive then this could be quite useful. Considering this is a conditioner though it's supposed to make your hair super soft & shiny. Instead my hair was drier & matter than ever. The smell is horrendous so even if it did make my hair soft I wouldn't use it again. It made me feel quite nauseous and I wanted to go & wash my hair right away just to get rid of it. I was really disappointed by this as there are several Percy & Reed products that I do like. Not a fan.
Murad Osmolyte Tonic
This month Love Me Beauty decided to give everyone a surprise item which is a 'hero product' that their subscribers have loved. This product differs in every box. I received a bottle of Murad's Osmolyte Tonic as my surprise item & I was very pleased to see this pop up again. This is a very refreshing & cooling spray toner. It helps to plump up & firm the skin. At the same time it also helps to reduce irritation & calm any blemishes. It's kinda like Hydraluron in a bottle. Great stuff!
La Claree Oliv Smooth Day Face Care
This moisturiser has a light mousse texture yet it feels incredibly hydrating on the skin. It dries down to a matte finish & is easily absorbed. It makes my skin feel very soft & smooth without being greasy at all. It features olive leaf extract & lots of other lovely natural ingredients. You only need a tiny amount for your whole face & neck so this little pot should last a while. I really like it & will definitely be checking out the brand's other products.
The Bakewell Soap Company May Chang Multi-Purpose Pocket Balm
I'm a big fan of multi-purpose balm products, they're such a handbag staple for me. Each box menu has a different variety of this balm. I'm a sucker for citrus scents so I chose the May Chang balm. It smells absolutely incredible! It can be used almost anywhere - lips, hands, nails & body. It provides some welcome relief & soothing hydration to any dry, flaky, itchy or irritable skin without feeling greasy. This really is such a lovely product & that refreshing citrus scent is far too good to resist.
As always this Valentine's edition was excellent value for money & I really liked most of the products. I loved receiving that Murad toner again & the May Chang balm now has a permanent home in my handbag.

I've never subscribed to a beauty box before after the general hit and miss of them but this one sounds like the best one so far. Everything looks so cute! I don't really 'get' dry conditioner either. The balm looks delightful!
