LookFantastic Wanderlust Beauty Box Edit

 This summer LookFantastic have got you covered with the launch of this months Wanderlust Edition Beauty Box.

Whether you are jetting off for a much needed holiday abroad or sticking around to discover more of the gorgeous UK, they’ve packed this month’s box full of a host of summer essentials to keep you glowing long after the sun has gone.

 

But, that’s not all. Oh no!

This month’s box is super special, in fact, it’s not actually a box at all.

Instead of the regular environmentally friendly cardboard box, this month you’ll be receiving a luxurious, faux leather travel bag!

 

Created in elegant cream with a clear PVC window to allow you to easily see what is inside, it’s the perfect size for bringing on your days out or using as a toiletry bag.

Thanks LF!

First up is the Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Cleansing Butter.

This deliciously decadent butter cleanser effortlessly removes makeup, daily pollutants and daily grime to reveal a healthy-looking complexion.

 

It features a unique blend of a fermented Pumpkin enzymes and Acerola Cherry, naturally rich in AHAs helps to brighten your skin, while Mango Butter and Chia Seed Oil, rich in omega fatty acids, nourish and hydrate.

This multi-purpose, luxurious cleanser can be used as a daily cleanser, a deep cleansing mask or even as a hydrating makeup remover for both your eyes and face.

Does you skin feel in need of a little extra TLC? Then look no further than the Starskin VIP 7-Second Luxury All Day Mask.

This clever little mask comes in the form of a handy little pad and is essentially a 7-in‐1 beauty innovation that combines the ultimate 7-step skincare routine into one easy-to-use, super-charged mask pad to deliver instantly fresh and dewy-looking skin within seconds.

This innovative beauty tool can be used as a massager, exfoliator, toner, serum, moisturiser, mask AND a makeup primer.

Wowzers.

 

Perfect for fuss free, busy individuals, each mask is infused with Kudzu Root (66%), known as the “Forever Young Plant” that helps visibly combat the signs of aging by reducing the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and crow’s feet.

The formula is enriched with premium ingredients such as Cranberry, loaded with antioxidants to protect cells form environmental stressors, and Grape Seed Extract to soften and smooth the skin.

 This multi-tasking, double-sided cleansing pad hydrates and refreshes your complexion in an instant.

Simply inspired!

 

Once your skin has been prepped to perfection, its time to get your tan on with the MineTan Cucumber Hydrating Face and Body Tan Mist.

This cool as a cucumber, refreshing mist acts as a gradual tanner to give you a natural looking glow, even if the sun isn’t playing ball!

Infused with the soothing scent of cucumber (no nasty self tan smells here!), it has been formulated with citric acid, jojoba oil and macadamia seed oil to nourish and protect your skin while offering a streak free, never orange glow.

So now you’re looking hot to trot it’s time to turn your attention to your hair.

Grow Gorgeous Defence Anti-pollution Leave-in Spray is an anti-pollution mist designed to protect your hair from heat damage, colour fading and external aggressors.

Perfect for greasy hair and hair prone to product build up, this lightweight spray not only protects but helps you to achieve stronger, more resilient hair that is silky smooth and soft.

Formulated with green tea extract to stimulate the scalp, restore shine and encourage healthy looking hair, it also contains a Polysaccharide Matrix to help protect your hair by acting as a barrier against atmospheric pollution and limiting damage.

Tara Tannins and Organic Sunflower Sprout Extract helps protect against the harmful effects of urban pollution and provitamin B5 offers superior moisturise to improve texture and manageability.

So now lets return to your face and create a serious envy-inducing glow with the Illamasqua Beyond Liquid Highlighter in shade OMG.

This luxurious, beautifully pigmented liquid highlighter can be worn alone or mixed with your foundation of choice to add an iridescent glow to your complexion.

 

Formulated with Jojoba oil for seamless application, it blends perfectly and its champagne pearl shimmer is suitable for all skin tones.

​Apply to cheekbones and browbones for some serious oomph that lifts your complexion and creates the illusion of incredible bone structure.

Finally, we have the jewel in the crown, Revlon’s Super Lustrous Lipstick in shade Rosewine 225.

This iconic lipstick is the perfect combination of high-impact colour in a super-moisturizing formula which features LiquiSilk to seal in both pigment and softness for long lasting, comfortable wear.

Silky, soft and buttery in texture, the lipstick has been infused with Vitamin E and avocado oil for superior conditioning while the microfine pigments offer a bright, bold colour pay off with lightweight feel.

Thanks to its creamy texture I like to use this lipstick as a matching blush, dabbing a little of the product onto my cheeks and blending to create an elegant, matching look.

So there you have it, what a fabulous box (or rather bag!) this month’s edition is!

Oh and did I mention that for those of you lucky so-and-so’s off to warmer climes, everything included is under 100ml in volume so its even airplane safe.

They’ve literally thought of everything!

BEAUTY PIE

OK, so, have you heard of a brand called BEAUTY PIE? No? Man you’re missing out big time.

BEAUTY PIE is a beauty brand unlike any other. 

To quote the guys themselves;

BEAUTY PIE is the first ever buyers club for beauty addicts. Members have access to luxury products, from world's leading beauty labs, but can buy up to 5X MORE for their money!

You wont find BEAUTY PIE on the high street and that’s because it’s an online retailer only.

Like many luxury brands they do not manufacture their own luxury skincare and makeup, rather, they source their products from around 20 of the worlds leading labs who manufacture their best formulations for BEAUTY PIE members.

The premise is simple. For a small monthly subscription you are allocated a corresponding spending limit based on the typical (high end) prices of the products on the website.

However, you do not pay the high end price, you pay a ridiculously discounted price allowing you to indulge and enjoy the luxury of some of the best products out there without beggaring yourself!

You have access to the same luxury, quality cosmetics and high performance skincare, without paying for the middlemen, the celebrity marketing or retailer costs.

So without getting too technical, you can sign up to a range of monthly memberships ranging from £5 a month which allows you a monthly spending limit of £50 up to £20 a month giving you a £200 spending limit or if you’re proper hardcore, £99 for a year’s subscription which allows you a £100 spending limit a month plus two months free. 

PLUS any unused spending limit will roll over onto the next month so you never lose out.

I recently signed up to their mini monthly £5 membership to give it a go and I am nothing but impressed!

For my first order I chose;

Wondergloss Lip Oil in Nude Nectar RRP £26 – I paid £4.84

Smart Powder Blush in Ring My Bell RRP £18– I paid £4.04

One Powder Wonder RRP £26– I paid £5.32

Super Moisture Lip Balm RRP £16– I paid £6.07

That order (including my £5 membership fee) came to £23.63. If I had bought those products as a non-member it would have set me back £86.

BONKERS isn’t it! 

PLUS for a limited time they’re giving you a £50 top up limit on your first order AND if you do decide to join then use THIS LINK and as a thanks you’ll receive your first months membership for FREE!

I’m going to spend some time in the coming week focusing on individual items from the BEAUTY PIE range because its safe to say that I’m already well and truly hooked on this brand but today I’d like to give a little mention to the Super Moisture Lip Balm, because lip balm’s are one of my most favourite things!

Housed within a small, chic, understated glass jar with white lid you’ll find the thickest richest, most delicious smelling lip balm of dreams.

99.4% natural this decadent balm is enriched with a host of skin loving, nourishing ingredients to leave  your lips feeling hydrated, soft, plump and beautiful.

Avocado oil nourishes, shea butter softens, sweet Almond Oil offers a soothing element while

With a scent reminiscent of a vanilla-coconut hybrid it is an absolute pleasure to use and its nourishing qualities last for ages on account of the thickness and richness of the balm itself. 

This was the very first item I tried and I was immediately impressed. 

I’m onto my second box now and I’m yet to be disappointed! 

In fact, here’s a sneak peek of the simply gorgeous Futurelipstick Luxe Shine in Pinkyum which cost me just £4.33 which without my £5 membership would have set me back £20.

If like me you adore luxury cosmetics and skincare but can’t justify the often hefty price tags that go along with them then I implore you to give BEAUTY PIE a go. What do you have to lose?

Don't forget, if you decide to join then use THIS LINK and as a thanks you’ll receive your first months membership for FREE!
