Latest In Beauty - October Samples


Little Beauty Box - £1.50 

This little box is something that I've blogged about for a while now, but I always seem to blog about how disappointed I am with it. I know for £1.50 there's not going to be massively amazing samples in it, but I always hope that the samples are going to be better. The good thing about this with Latest In Beauty is that you can actually choose three samples you would like to try, so you do know what you're getting. When it came to ordering my samples for this month I was wondering whether it would be worth it, but as usual I went ahead anyway. I chose Beauty Fixation Nail Polish Touch-ups, Sanctuary Spa Active Reverse Facial and Green People Sun Lotion.

I was actually happy that I chose these samples and it was a big bonus that there was something I hadn't tried before. I didn't think much of it when I ordered the samples, but when they arrived today I was so so happy. The first thing that caught my eye was the Nail Polish Touch-ups, just because its something that I ALWAYS need when I'm doing my nails since I can never keep the polish off my fingers. You literally snap one end of the cotton bud and the nail polish corrector is fed onto the bottom bud, so you can mop up any mistakes. Absolutely genius! I can't wait to use these and write a proper review for you all.

The sun lotion is actually something that I definitely won't be using, seeing as it's October and freezing, but I'm going to put it away for next summer. You never know when little sachets of sun lotion may come in handy on holiday, especially to just use on your face. The Active Reverse Facial looks pretty interesting and at the minute I'm a little obsessed with products like this, and trying them out. It says that after one use you will feel a change in your skin, making it brighter and tauter, apparently. No doubt this will be used and reviewed soon too.

Since I've cancelled my Glossy Box subscription, I may be turning to little cheap boxes like this more often for new things to try. What do you think to the samples?

    1. that's fine lovely :)) the cotton bud sample I got was pretty decent, I think there's about 20 in the pot which is good :)) For £1.50 it's good for what you get.
