She Said Beauty - November Edition

Here it is, the beginning of the month and with it brings my November Beauty box. It arrived quite early Saturday morning and it was a lovely feeling just to be able to open it straight away and look at my goodies and let me tell you it was a lovely surprise! Here is what I got.

So..? Brit Body Spray

Now this stuff really does smell amazing and it caught my eye first! I love having body sprays that I can use any time of day and this scent is rather sweet. It's suited most probably for teenage girls but I really do love the smell and it perfect for every day wear. I also got a full sample so I'll definitely be making good use of it. It's also rather cheap at £1.99 at full size. 

Yardley Royal English Eau de Toilette

Now I am all about perfume samples, I love trying out new scents to find favorites and this one is gorgeous. I only used a little to get a feel of the scent and it's really refreshing and sweet. It's lovely for every day wear and I think it's becoming one of my favorites already. It was a rather small sample however it's a cheap treasure retailing at £9.99 for 50ml and £14.95 for 125ml.  So I'm definitely going to purchase it!

Murrays Manicure Nail Files

This was SSB's little treat this month and I couldn't be happier. I really want to get into looking after my nails and nail files is the perfect place for me to start. They are rather cute and small which makes them very handy. I can't wait to use these and retailing at £1.99 they don't cost much to stock up on!

Redken Smooth Lock Shampoo & Condition

I love samples like this! I'm always looking for something to look after my hair well. I can't wait to try these out as I have seen many good things about them. Also they suit my hair beautifully as it can get quite bad in the winter. They are only sold in Supercuts salons and retail at £11.85 - shampoo and £13.40 - condition.

Makebelieve Enhance Luminize Skin Highlighter
I'm always looking for ways to make my skin look better so this product couldn't have come at a better time. I only swatch-ed this product so I don't know what it looks like on but the colour looks so amazing. I can't actually wait to try this out. I hope it looks as good on and as I got a full size sample I'll make good use of it! It retails at £7.50 for 2ml which is full size.

Welda Wild Rose Smoothing Night Cream
I was so happy with this sample, it's not a full sized product but it is still a lovely size. I've never really used night creams before but I hope to start with this one, it smells rather lovely so I can't wait to use it! It retails at £14.95 for 30ml I hope it's worth the price as I may end up buying it.

Collection 2000 Primed & Ready Soothing Make -Up Primer 
This was also another full sized product which I was happy to receive because whenever I do put make up on it does sometimes go a little funny and tends to wear off quickly so I think this would be a lovely base for my make up. I adore Collection 2000 products so I'm excited to try this. This product is rather cheap and retails at £5.99 for 18ml.

As you can tell I was really happy with this edition of the SSB box. I received lovely products that I can't wait to use properly and that I bet I will purchase! All the products were wonderfully suited to me and I couldn't be happier.

What did you think to your November SSB box?

She Said Beauty - October Edition

Now this is my first SSB box so I was rather excited for it! (Mine has arrived later because I paid later on). I've already read other peoples reviews on this months box and they wasn't that impressed so I was a little gutted as I didn't want a bad box on my first go? However I opened my box to see what goodies I would find, you never know I may actually really like them.

The first thing I stopped and have really been looking forward to was Palmers Cocoa Butter lotion. I've seen many people use this products and I've always wanted to try it! I hate paying full price for items that are expensive because I may not end up liking them. However I was really happy with this product because my mums used it before and it smells amazing. I absolutely adore the smell and I can't wait to try it! Knowing me I'll end up purchasing it at full price. This product retails at £1.19 for 50ml and £3.85 for 250ml.

The second product I saw was the perfume sample which came in a cute little vial and it was Amy Child's (The Only Way Is Essex) new perfume. Now I was a little disappointed at this sample because I thought the smell would be rather cheap and tacky and my assumptions on a small scale were true. It's a rather nice fruity smell however it's not something I would normally go for. It's a nice smell but I'm not overly keen on it. It retails at £14.99 for a 30ml bottle and £19.99 for a 50ml. I may grow to like it, but I'm highly doubtful. 

I also received a packet of Myvitamins which was a little different to what I've seen in other beauty boxes. I was really excited to try these as I've been seeing them in other bloggers reviews and my packet on the back says "Chromium can help regulate blood sugar levels, especially when dieting and supports the breakdown of fat to assist weight goals." After reading this I've really been put off taking these and I was so excited to try them! I don't normally take vitamins but I'm not really in the need of weight-loss so I feel as if these are wasted on me. They retail from £2.49 for 30 tablets. 

I received two samples of Biao Beauty Rejuvenating Créme a product I've never heard of but am willing to try. However I hate how they have been packaged, sachets are a big no-no for me as I feel they get rather messy. However I'll give these a try, the little flowery bottle the full sized product comes in looks lovely and I would like to try a night cream without having to pay a bomb for it. This retails at $24.50 for 118ml. 

One sample which really caught my eye was the B.liv 'Off With Those Heads' cooling gel which is to remove black heads and can help control breakouts. I have a little trouble with blackheads so I'm really excited to try this product! The sample size was a tiny bit small however if I do like the product I can always buy it and it retails at $49.00 for 30ml and $63.00 for 45ml. 

And last but not least I got the Cellnique Advanced Bio Renewal Masque. I was rather disappointed with this product, it was an absolutely tiny sample and was only 3g which means you can't really do much with it and I was rather looking forward to using it. However it does smell rather nice. This product retails at $51.00 for 50g.

With this being my first SSB box I was a little disappointed with the samples I received  However I did receive some products I rather did like and will buy at full price such as the Palmers. I do have high hopes for the November box, hopefully it will feature a little bit bigger samples and products more suited to me.
