October BirchBox X CoppaFeel

Hello There!

In honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, beauty subscription box 'BirchBox' have collaborated with the charity Coppafeel. In case your not already aware Coppafeel are on a mission to end late detection of breast cancer, which is such a big problem that needs resolving as 55,000 people every year are diagnosed with breast cancer and 10% of those are discovered late. The main theme about this months box is 'Feeling Good', so this box is full of products that aim to make you smile this month. 

(Can we all admire how beautiful the design of this box is!)

Whats Included? 

Anatomicals Boob Tube Grab Your Melons Shower Gel 50ML- 

So this month Anatomicals are collaborating with the charity to great this product and I have to say it smells amazinggg! It reminds me of some kind of melon sweets! This shower gel will make it even easier for you to get hands on while your rather up!.

BalanceMe Pure Skin Face Wash 40ML- 

I believe I have used BalancedMe products in the past and I look forward to trying this out, this size will be perfect to take on weekends away. (Full size product £16/125ML)

EcoTools Colour Perfecting Minis- 

I haven't actually tried any kind of mini beauty blenders, each coloured sponge is designed to flawlessly correct to your complexion, I am  looking forward to giving these a go.

Benefit The Pore Fessional Pearl Primer-

I have acctually been on the lookout for a new primer, so am very happy to receive a little tube of the Benefit primer in this months box. 

Model Co Megalash Mascara- 

 With this months box you actually get an option to add in an addition item of your choice of Model Co products. It was between a contour Stick or the Megalash Mascara and since I was out of all my mascara of course I opted for that option. I have actually tried the mascara and it is actually quite nice at separating the lashes and gives a natural effect.

You still have time to get your October box, click the link here to get yours for £10 (+p&p) plus you will receive a free rose gold Spectrum brush. 

If In Doubt Check It Out!!

Its thought that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in there life time, which is a really scary statistic. That is why it is so important that we take the time to understand our bodies so that if there are any changes then they are more easily noticeable. Iv left a little guide to what you should be looking out for.Now obviously if you do feel something different if could be nothing but don't you think it worth taking that quick trip down to the doctors to get it checked out, don't be ashamed of being wrong, you know your body better than anyone. 

I am also going to leave you with this video from one of my favourite Youtubers Fleur, she is a brand ambassador for Coppafeel and trying to raise more awareness surrounding the campaign. So, make sure to give it a watch and share with your friends, you never know you may just saved someones life. 

Thankyou for visiting!

Degustabox- August Review

Hello There!
So this weeks post is something a little different for me, I will be reviewing the food/grocery subscription box 'Degustabox'. Usually when I think of subscription boxes I think of beauty subscriptions, so I was interested when I saw an advert for 'Degustabox'.
Degustabox box is a monthly subscription service, in which you will deceive a variety of new grocery products from big brands, great if you want to discover some brands and products that you wouldn't pop into your basic on your usual weekly shop.

So what did this months box contain (RRP)?

-Refresh Softies (£1)
-Orangina Limited Edition Summer Bottles x2 (£1.25 Each)
-Seabrook Crinklecut Variety Pack (£1)
-Tabasco Green Pepper Sauce (£1.89)
-Fruitypot Jellysqueeze x2 (£0.59 Each)
-Light Bites Popped Chips x2 (£0.99 Each)
-Maggie Fusian Noodles x2 (£1.39 Each)
-Bahlsen Pick Up! Black 'N White (£1)
-Twisted Halo Coconute Water & Vodka (£1.50)
-Hellmanns Real Mayonnaise (£1.49)
-Cadburys Curlywurly Squirlies (£1.99)
-Cadburys Dairy Milk Big Taste Toffee Whole Nut (£0.60)

*STAR PICK* -
I have to say my favourite product from this months box is the Cadburys Curlywurly Squirlies! I love the taste of Curlywurly's but they were a bit awkward and messy to eat so having bite size versions is always good in my book.

My Opinions 

I was actually pleasantly surprised by the variety within this box, I feel like it is definitely designed for the whole family in mind as there is something for all ages. Whilst not everything in the box caters to my particular diet or taste someone in my house would appreciate all of these items. I feel like this box would actually be perfect for university students, maybe your a parent and want to surprise you child with a box of well needed food each month (That student loan doesn't always stretch). The box also contains helpful recipes and some coupons to use on some of the products in store.

Price 

The prices each month differ depending on which plan you decided to go with but to just pay monthly it cost £12.99 which includes the delivery. When pricing this months box I worked it out to be approximately £17.52 so already you are saving money. Even better is when you use the code HOLLYR-998E you will receive your first box for £5.99! Now that is a bargain! To find out more of the price package you can visit their site here.
