On the ninth day of advent... ciate vs. youbeauty


On the ninth day of advent my Ciate calendar gave to me:


A 5ml nail varnish in the shade 'pillow fight'. The colour is a pale grey with a purple undertone. I am not sure I would buy it tbh as it is sort of a meh shade.


On the ninth day of advent my youbeauty calendar gave to me:


A 25ml pot of the Trilogy Rosapene Night Cream. I have to admit I love love love this scent and it is very similar to the Weleda rose creams in smell and I am really happy to be able to put this scent on my face overnight again and it must be the Rosehip I can smell. The texture is nice on this cream and a little goes a long way.
The Rosapene is trademarked to Trilogy and is supposed to help your skin with it's own regeneration so that it delivers intensive nourishment that will leave my skin radiant, smooth and restored. I will report back on how I have down when this product is finished.  More info on the product can be found here.
This was one of the products I was really looking forward to using and hopefully I won't be disappointed in it.
I have worked out that this sample is worth £11.88.

Love ME Beauty September (Beauteco) 2013 box menu One

Image
Boxes cost £10 plus p and p of £2.95 monthly from  lovemebeauty.com . Received this box earlier in the month but was my favourite box in September by far. Matriskin collagen serum 7.5ml (sample size) worth approx £24.10 Detailed by Love ME beauty as a serum to both prevent and to cure various signs of aging. It has a purpose of filling and reducing wrinkles from the first application and removes expression lines in just 30 days. I love serums as a little goes a long way and this one is no different.  This one is a clear gel and feels nice when applied and is helping to fight off the wrinkles of this thirty one year old. Although per gram it is very expensive and would be too expensive for me to buy the full size version. Essential care Organic lip silk 4.5g (full size) £5.50 at  www.essential-care.co.uk Detailed as a 'tasty and nourishing blend of beeswax, Shea butter, coconut oil and orange essential oil to moisturise, repair and protect your lips i

Lovelula may 2014

Image
  I've recently signed up for a few boxes as I am looking at cancelling some again and this was one that I signed up for again after getting it a little while ago and deciding to try it again for three boxes and this is my first box of the three I prepaid for. This is my Lovelula May box that arrived this afternoon. So odd to see these leaflets again after a while away but definitely exciting. Eight samples in my box this month and although I have one sample (the lip and cheek stain) from a Birchbox I am really happy to see a few brands that I have never tried before and products I haven't tried as well as some goods that will be great to take on my holidays. So, what did I get? The first two items were from Fresh therapies and are two different types of samples of their natural nail varnish remover products. The first sample is a nourishing nail varnish wipe that is sufficient for 10 nails according to the packaging and the second sample is
