October She Said Beauty Box Review



Hi everyone,
Today hadn’t been the best day but I was cheered up when I arrived home from work to find this month’s She Said Beauty Box had been delivered :) So I thought I would write a quick post on the contents of the October box and my thoughts on what was included.
   Amy Childs Perfume Sample
I’m afraid to say I’m not a huge fan of this perfume as it is quite a strong and musky scent and I usually go for more light and floral fragrances. Maybe it’s just me but I do also get put off when you have to pour the perfume out of the bottle onto your skin; I much prefer it when samples have the spray top as I think it is so much easier to use. That might just be me being fussy though!
B.liv Off With Those Heads
I am really interested to try this product and if it works then I will be very impressed! I tend to get a very oily t-zone so I am hoping that this product will help keep my skin under control and less shiny during the day. I will let you guys know if I think ‘Off With Those Heads’ is worth a try!
Biao Beauty Rejuvenating Night Creme
I think this might be one that gets passed on to my mum as I am trying to cut down on the amount of skincare products that I use on my skin at the moment. I felt like I was doing my skin more harm than good by overloading it with different lotions and potions so I have now reduced it to the basics and I feel my skin has been much better for it.  
Cellnique Advanced Bio Renewal Masque
I was a bit disappointed with the size of this sample and don’t think I’ll get much of an idea of how good it is from the small amount provided. Having said that, I am currently looking for a new and effective face scrub so I am happy to give it a try and it smells delicious too!
Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula
 I have the Palmers Cocoa Butter lip balm which I absolutely love and have always wanted to try the body lotion so I was very pleased to see it in this month’s She Said box. I wasn’t disappointed when I tried this product as my skin was left feeling lovely and soft and the smell is gorgeous too :)              
Myvitamins, Essential Vitamin D3
This was a She Said bonus item in this month’s box. I’ve tried taking vitamins a few times in the past but it usually only lasts a couple of days before I start forgetting to take them. I like that She Said include bonus treats as I feel that you are getting that bit more value for money and it’s just a nice little extra touch :)
Overall I wasn’t blown away with the October She Said box and thought some of the samples were a bit on the small side. I am coming to the end of my subscription with only a couple of months left and can’t decide whether I will renew or not. If there are any other beauty boxes that you would recommend I would love to hear your thoughts :)
Hope you enjoyed reading,
BBx
