Every weekend I read the beauty, celebrity and fashion magazines that come with the weekend newspapers. A few weeks ago, 'You' magazine featured http://www.latestinbeauty.com/ and an exclusive deal that had with them, where you could buy a box containing miniture samples of the most memorable beauty products, such as Liz Earle cleanse and posh, Sisley anti-wrinkle cream (which I gave to my mum as I'm not too worried about wrinkles yet) and a sachet of Lanolips 101 ointment which lasted me 2 weeks.
Here's my review of the service and my thoughts on it.
The box only costed me about £8, and it was definately worth a lot more.... the Sisley cream was a 5ml pot and the full 50ml sized pot is £250! There Liz Earle was 30ml with a muslin cloth to go with it, there was a trio of Bamford bath oil, body wash and body lotion, and Dr Nick Lowe 20ml day cream.
The sizes were deffinetely generous and you really can decide whether or not it's going to be a product you like and want to purchase again.
Although that box I recieved was an exclusive and is no longer available, LIB has 6 different boxes available for the year of 2012 including some promising sounding ones like the 'Summer Travel', 'Fragrance Discovery' and 'Red Carpet' boxes. You can see what will be in the box before you purchase and the sizes of each product so you don't have to hope for the best!
The current box is the 'Refresh and Recover' box. Click here to take a look!
The boxes are not subscription. You are not tied into having other boxes. There are no hidden charges.
Boxes come in in a nice cardboard box, within a brown postage cardboard box so you can give this as a gift to suprise someone. I got my box well within a week of ordering it. It was out of stock when I first went to order, however I registered my interest and recieved an email telling me when it was back in stock a couple of days later where there was an exlusive link to get the box before it was in stock on the website.
Latest In Beauty also offers a Little Beauty Box, along with the forementioned Luxury box. These boxes cost £1.50 which is only payable by text message and they contain smaller samples (very small, like a 5ml sachet) that you can chose 3 of. There are quite a few different things you can chose from and these items change so keep checking back! Once again, no subscription, take a look!
The site has a shop where you can view private sales that offer you a discount on different products and you can also purchase individual luxury sized samples. The sample sizes are given and it tells you how long the sample is expected to last. They can be quite pricey (£8 for Realhair 2 x 50ml styling set) but there are a lot more cheaper items like 3 x 5ml Monu skincare set. Available here!
I find myself being drawn to this site most days to view the different samples to see if any take my fancy, and I 100% recommend this company. I like being able to try different products without being commited to having a full size of it. It's cheaper and there isn't a monthly subscription like other beauty boxes. Being able to see the products in the box BEFORE you buy is also a massive possive as you can just skip a box if nothing stands out to you!
