                                                           HARPERS BAZAAR.

the contents.



BENEFIT COSMETICS.THEY'RE REAL MASCARA.
a jet black mascara for giving the lashes volume, separates the lashes out . a basic black mascara.



SOIGN'E.BOTANIQUE NAIL LACQUER, 
i received the shade pomegranate which is a non toxic polish.classically a great colour in bright red rose. this polish sets hard and does not  chip easily.



AROMATHERAPY ASSOCIATES RELAX LIGHT BATH AND SHOWER OIL.
this company does the  best oils that i have come across, the are thick and heavily scented ,this one has lavender and ylang ylang,and totally helps you unwind after a busy day,you can smell it afterwards on your skin and you feel so relaxed.



PHILIP KINGSLEY,ONE MORE DAY DRY SHAMPOO.
a light  weight spray that peps up your hair in-between washes,
not much good for me as i have fine hair and is a crop cut.




LIZ EARLE BEAUTY CO, CLEANSE AND POLISH.HOT CLOTH CLEANSER.
a great branded cleanser,massage over the face on dry skin,cover with a hot  cloth and then remove with warm water.




LIFESTYLE EXTRA,
IMEDEEN DERMA ONE.
this box is a 15 day supply,these daily tablets work from the inside out,helps improve skin,anti ageing, improves moisture,contains marine complex,,vitamin c, zinc.


overall this could of been a great box ,but i feel nothing kind of wowed me.the actual box design is great.


disclaimer =this box was bought and payed for by me with my own money, all thoughts and reviews are my own , i was not payed or gifted by anyone else.
