I've been looking into beauty boxes but I found that a lot of them are quite expensive especially when some of them only contain samples, if i'm only getting samples I don't want to pay a lot. Another thing I wasn't keen on was not knowing what you were going to get in your box, I know a lot of people like the surprise but I want to know what i'm getting so I can decide whether or not the box is worth buying. Most beauty boxes are a subscription service which is something else I don't like the idea of, I like the idea of buying a one off box when I can afford to as a treat to myself.
I found a beauty box I wanted to try which was Latest In Beauty I purchased the July Editor's Pick box which was £14.95 including delivery. It contained 7 products one which was full sized.
One thing I like about Latest In Beauty is that there are 3 options for a Beauty Box you can choose the little beauty box which will cost you £1.50 and you can choose 3 samples. You can also create your own beauty box from the luxury samples and then there is the themed beauty box or editors pick beauty box. If you choose the themed beauty box or editors pick beauty box you can also add some of the luxury samples to it if you wish.
I added 2 samples to my beauty box, I added Percy & Reed dry conditioner as a gift for my sister to take on holiday and I also gave her the Batiste dry shampoo and the Mavala miniature nail varnish from my beauty box. The other addition to my beauty box was the Liz Earle cleanse and polish which I wanted to try out and at £3 for the sample I wasn't turning it down.
I also gave my mom the two Weleda pomegranate firming products and i'm going to ask her to review those for me when she's used them. I think she is much more likely to use them before I do and she would probably notice the benefits better than me.

Once I've used all of the products I will give them a review and let you know how I got on with them. The August beauty box was an In-flight Rescue Kit which appears to be sold out already.
