I have another 5 months of these boxes before the subscription runs out, so it’s intriguing to know what I will get in each box. I decided to end the subscription as I like to have breaks to use up the products I have received, and to not hoard too much too.

Australian Body care Tea Tree Oil 10ml RRP £8.99

100% pure antiseptic Tea Tree Oil is a complex mixture combing up too 150 different natural components. There are hundreds of different Tea Tree species, however it is only the Melaleuca alternifolia tree that contains the exact combination of natural elements that are so skin friendly. Dilute for facial oil with distilled water or carrier oil, or dab on bites, spots or cuts undiluted.

It’s gently infused with soothing extracts of Apricot, Sweet Betty Flower and Saponins from Quillaja Wood, the hydrating formula will sooth and balance the skin whilst leaving it looking and feeling fresh and radiant.

Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Booster 20ml RRP £4.50

What is the Philip KingsleyElasticizer Booster? Well it is an intensive conditioner, designed to complement and enhance Philip Kingsley’s award-winning Elasticizer pre-shampoo treatment. Packed with olive fruit oil and yeast and chia extracts, use this rich conditioner to help prolong the effects of your weekly Elasticizer treatment, or to add a boost to your normal conditioner. I swear by Philip Kingsley Elasticizer shampoo, so I’m excited to try this too.

Aromatherapy Associates De-Stress Muscle Gel 40ml RRP £7.00

I needed this. Looking forward to trying this De-Stress Muscle Gel. Which apparently first cools inflamed muscles then it before imparting a deep, comforting warmth. Ingredients are an invigorating Black Pepper combined with a warming Ginger which make the perfect antidote to an intense workout, a demanding day, or in-flight heavy legs, leaving muscles soothed and relaxed. Let’s see if my back pain and psoas pain can be eased off.

Decorté Lipsome Advanced Serum 12ml RRP £21.99

Leading Skincare specialists, this serum comes naturally to Decorté, and the brand’s latest formulation is set to be hugely popular, as this will leave your skin looking reborn, smooth, hydrated and bouncy with the Liposome Advanced Repair Serum. Works from the deep cellular level, this vegan friendly formula uses multilayer bio-liposomes to form a lamellar structure that repairs and prevents skin disorders. It Provides a deeply moisturised feeling, the serum uses phospholipids to ensure your youthful glow lasts as the capsules gradually dissolve throughout the day. It’s pricey and I bet I will fall in love with it too. But worth having a treat now and then.

Avant Hyalu Replenish Lip Balm 10ml RRP £56.00

I’m in a quandary with Avant, as the prices are ridiculous, yet I only ever see them in boxes, are they specifically created for boxes alone? Or are they sold in their own right? Who is paying £56.00 for 10ml of a lip balm? But I can’t lie I have always absolutely loved each Avant product too. For satin-smooth, hydrated lips, this lip balm will leave lips irresistibly soft, youthful and nourished, perfectly kissable! It combines the ingredients of Hyaluronic Acid and Cupuacu Butter.
Hyaluronic Acid aims to penetrate deeply into the lips to hydrate and instantly help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth.
Cupuacu is rich in vitamins B1, B2, B3, fatty and amino acids. Being from the cocoa family, Cupuacu aims to improve the tone and texture of your lips whilst protecting them against damage caused by free radicals.

Aveeno Oat Gel Moisturiser 6ml (no price or info was given)

This felt like a cop out product, not sure if it was a meant to be a box of 5 items and this is a freebie, or what. There was no explanation. But 6ml is tiny, it’s a one use wonder, so you can’t really test whether you like it or not, or how the skin behaves. I’m sure it’s lovely but I was disappointed in the size. Even if it’s a freebie.

Box value if I discount the price tag of Avant and made it more sensible, is around £58.00 but they price it at £106.00 for £13 a month is definitely worth it. But I do feel the quality has gone downhill slightly since Brexit and the availability of products and brands getting slimmer.
