head to toe breakfast bag from beauteque,

pr sample

i was kindly sent the BEAUTEQUE bag, this is the HEAD TO TOE breakfast bag.

 find the bag here,HEAD TO TOE BREAKFAST BAG
the bag costs $26.00 and $9.00 shipping to uk and europe cheaper to usa and canada.
the breakfast bag is themed around the most important  meal of the day ,each product in this bag is either shaped or have ingredients in the theme.
so start the day off with a decent meal and a great skincare routine.

MY BAG.


 

MENU CARD 

PRODUCTS.


CHERRY APRON,$15.00
the cherry apron was included in this bag, so put your pinny on and start cooking breakfast ,
this is a great sized apron,simple ties that reach round the back and front,




SKINFOOD BATH FIZZER  IN BLACK SUGAR.$5.00
this pack contains 2 bath fizzy bombs.
these contain seasalt, and minerals ,also contains green tea that helps to brighten the skin.you drop them into the bath and let them fizz around till dissolved,
simply pop one in the bath and relax.
the skin felt soft and rejuvenated afterwards.
quite nice for a pamper night.





TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL EGG CREAM MASK. $5.00
this is a sheet face mask ,the actual mask is very thin but does fit tightly on the skin.
this mask contains albumen,albumin,ceramide,camellia oil.
the skin feels and looks fresher and brighter.
the mask was really creamy felt like a mayonnaise mask, plenty of moisture and essence to massage in the skin and neck and decollete area afterwards.
it seems to tighten my skin up too much and i need to moisturise my skin a lot as i felt my face had frozen still.






FROM NATURE eCHOICE  FERMENTED TEA SKIN DRINKS  SLEEPING PACK,
$12.00
a great sleeping pack ,i have a few of these tubes, it is packed with jasmine and green tea.
this moisture pack moisturises  overnight,feeds nutrients to the skin,
simply wash off in the morning to feel a softer hydrated skin,




TONY MOLY MAGIC FOOD BANANA HAND MILK,$10.00
this is such a cute banana,
when you open it up the white cream is quite thick,
the smell is awesome ,just like school banana and custard pudding in the UK,
with this you can only just stop yourself  trying to eat it.
the little tube is a squeeze ,i don't think this will last long as i keep grabbing it while around the house just so my hands smell of banana custard.






EVAS VITAMIN CLEANSING FOAM,$10.00
this is a rich creamy lemon foam,with hyaluronic acid,vitamin B and C ,AHA.
this foams up a lot but is very drying on the skin and my face felt really dry ,it does have a high PH level ,so i will be using up on my legs for shaving instead.
it did clean the face well and clean pores, but far too harsh on my skin sadly.





ETUDE HOUSE SUNSHINE IN SPOON SCRUB MASSAGE YOGHURT,$3.00
X2.
I CHOSE THE OPTION OF raspberry x2. and sugar apple x2,
the raspberry yoghurt pack massages the skin with its peeling capsules.
it is high in anti-oxidative.vitamin packed raspberries.this gives clear skin and and clean pores while giving a great cleanse to the skin.
simply massage scrub into skin with fingers or brush then wash off with water,

the sugar apple scrub is as above,but this firms the skin right up and has apple extract.this left the skin smooth,





so we have our tea, our lemon,our apron to wear, some yoghurt,bananas and sugar,with some eggs and fruit all thrown in for a great breakfast,

this was a great bag for me,skincare , i love that i finally got the tony moly banana cream ,i love it, the too cool for school egg cream mask is good , the mesh backing you remove is good as it is a slippery mask to put on, buttes i liked it,the cherry apron is a great addition ,i like the yoghurt scrub and its really does buff the skin well,
the sleep mask is moisturising,the only thing i didn't enjoy is the vitamin foam, but i do think the head to toe  bags the company release, 
i look forward to grabbing a bloggers colab bag this month,

shipping for this bag took 3 days to the UK so a lot quicker than the monthly subscription bags.
i love it,

SEEDS AND FLOWERS ,MEMEBOX,

so my second to last memebox landed and this was bought in a bundle.
the THEME of this box is 
                                                 SEEDS AND FLOWERS,
he seeds and flowers box promotes a box of skintastic products that are going prep your skin after the harsh winter ready for the spring and summer,
this aims at giving you skincare set for the spring and summer, with anti -oxidant rich seeds,that protect and and strengthen .flower infused cosmetics that help heal, and all help give a overall skin glowing look.
expect to see floral and seeds and fruit in this box,

MY BOX,



UN BOXED,








YADAH PURE GREEN EMULSION,120ML.
This is an emulsion loaded with rosemary,chamomile,royal jelly,prickly pear,
a hydrating emulsion with antioxidants.
an emulsion is a thinner cream more of a lotion than a thick face cream,
the chamomile and rosemary sooth and calms the skin,the royal jelly hydrates and leaves a barrier over the surface of the skin,
this is a slightly thinner lotion style cream, it sinks into the skin very well, the scent is light and not overpowering,and it seems to be gentle on the skin,i think it will be good for a few months worth before the warmer weather hit us,it leaves no oily residue my skin felt not quite dry but had a matte feel of which I'm not getting on with too well, i like to feel the products sinking in the skin.





ECHOICE PERFUME BODY MIST DEAR IRIS,120ML.
a refreshing body mist that can be used on the body ,the hair ,and the clothes,
it smells clean and refreshing, for that instant hydrating burst to the skin throughout the day,
the citrus  and floral  scents are just nice without being heavy going,
a great floral face and body mist, this mist is light and floral  and long lasting, its great for use on the go in the car or for cooling you down on those hot sticky days.



SEVENDROPS MORINGA LIGHT SUNBLOCK,50G,
a great fast acting and absorbing light cream, this helps protect against UVA/UVB damage, with moringa seed extracts  which ancient kings and queens used ,a daily hydrating  cream can be used before or after skincare routine,
this cream is a lot thinner than my normal sunblocks and as i burn so easy i can't see this being good for me, so it will be used as a cream for when i go down the beach for walks ,the cream sinks in to the skin it has a barrier look and feel to it,it smells OK and not that typical chemical sickly smell,





KSKIN ROSE MOISTURE &NUTRITION FACIAL CREAM,120ML.
a face cream formulated with Bulgarian rose,trelahose ,they moisturise and brighten,
Bulgarian rose has high levels of vitamin,C,helps cover skin imperfections and moisturises and hydrates deep down into the skin.
a fragrant scented rose cream, the cream has a slightly thicker  consistency, and my skin felt like it was drinking up the product.
 the skin feels soft and silky,its a really nice cream.




ENESTI ROSE HIP OIL FOAMING CLEANSER,120ML.
the enesti cleansers seem to be a good cleanser. these foam up well and clean dirt out , no harsh on the skin, this one has added rose hip oil,and mineral water it goes into a thick lather  ,meant to give the skin a good glow ,smoother skin,
i like these cleansers for use after work on my oily skin after a heavy day in the kitchen ,it lathers up really well and you find it lifts all the dirt and grime and excess oils from the skin, the skin doesn't feel stripped dry afterwards ,it is cleaner and softer and firmer.i like that the face then feels a lot more refreshed once moisturiser is added .



PUREDERM LAVENDER COLLAGEN PULP MASK, 18ML.
100%pulp sheet mask.
simply apply over the cleansed skin for 20 minutes.
lavender is good for ageing skin, dullness,irritation,dryness.it actually works well for feeding the skin,and a healthy looking complexion.
these sheet masks are good, i like that i finally tried a lavender mask,.my skin felt cleaner ,refreshed,and plumped up.my skin had no redness or irritation,  good choice.





so my second to last box was good ,all products are going to be used  and the rose cream is very moisturising,the cleanser feels great and smell great,the lavender mask i enjoyed and will try other lavender ones now,the mist is in the car ,the suncream is a bit thin for for me and I'm am using on windy cold days at present as i don't think the cream will be of use later on to me, the yadah emulsion i think i will be giving away as its too thin for me compared to my shu umera emulsion.

my last box will be luckybox14.

january first edition mask genie 5 mask pouch subscription,

mask genie is a monthly mask subscription, 
mask genie set out to provide a selection of masks from all around Asia at an affordable price packed into a pouch and sent to your letterbox.
there are two types 
a pouch of 5 masks -$12.00
or a pouch of 10 for $22.00
shipping to the UK took 4 days so as usual very fast.
to order check out the Facebook page,-https://www.facebook.com/MaskGenie?
payment is done through paypal.

all the masks are from Asia not the cheap masks found and made in china ,
genie has road tested all the masks that appear in the the pouches herself and can be found on the page and on her website.
for the first month i decided to get the 5 pouch as i have a few to use up and from February I'm back on the full sized one.

in future months genie is looking at adding a different mask in ,so look out for a nail mask, or feet mask,or feet peeling mask, hair mask, 


so here is the pouch.




PETIT FEE 98%COLLAGEN +CO HYDROGEL MASK,
these eye patches are of a silicone material.they are shaped as lying and yang or a tear drop.and they stick under the eye to plump up and firm laughter lines ,and wrinkles,
they come in a round plastic dish which helps to hold them as you peel off the sticker.
the mask is rather sticky and place under the eye they sit there for 30 minutes ,with ingredients such as collagen flower extracts.
these ingredients push deep down into the skin.

i really liked the eye masks one of better sets I've used before.they are very sticky and stuck to my skin like glue.my puffy eyes had gone down  a lot ,and the skin felt a lot firmer afterwards.




my puffy eyes had gone down after wearing these masks.


DERMAL SYN-AKE COLLAGEN ESSENCE MASK,
the mask is a thick cotton mask ,it has good amount essence  and no too much, i like that this has eye flaps in that you can wear it with the flaps over your eyes for total resting and treatment or open and carry on with other things.
this mask is fine on most skin types  and you leave it on for 30 minutes.
its a gentle mask in that it gives a slight firm skin result, 
 syn-ake is similar to snake venom,and it also has added vitamin E.

i liked the mask but i didn't find it as beneficial in moisturising ,hydrating and firming as my general masks, i think this is the basic mask of my 5 pouch, it didn't wow me ,but its not bad.
the actual mask didn't fit well and kept moving down my face.


this mask kept moving down my face while wearing 

E.G.F/COLLAGEN MASK,
this is a cute packaged pig mask.
the mask is aimed at pore tightening,
the mask has collagen which helps to moisturise and feed the skin,gives elasticity and leaves vibrant skin,

this is a good mask works great on drier skin, my skin and neck felt really hydrated even the following morning.
left on for 20-30 minutes ,liked this mask ,there was enough essence for massaging into the face and neck and bust area afterwards,




ETUDE HOUSE GREEN TEA NOSE PACK,
these are little patches that fit over the nose ,can be stuck on to the chin and also forehead for  stubborn blackheads,
they are a paper patch that re infused with green tea extract  and additives ,these help to pull out all excess oils and bring the blackheads up to the surface and onto the patch,
to use simply wet the nose peel off the paper backing and stick to the nose ,basically once the part patch is bone dry then its time to remove ,

this smells really strong of green tea ,it stuck on well and hurt a bit when trying to peel off my nose,but my nose was a lot cleaner and clearer ,i do like this brand and we use them weekly,





MEDIHEAL MOGONGTOX SODA BUBBLE MASK.
OK so this is not a full face mask like you usually buy,this is a half mask,designed for the bottom half of the face and nose,its a black sheet mask,on opening this is a folded up mask,open it up and place on to the face ,as soon as you apply to the skin it will start bubbling up, leave on for 10-15 minutes the sheet will give bubbles double the size.remove the mask and wash the face,

i saved the best mask till last.
this mask is so fun to use and wear.i liked how the mask covered and worked on my trouble areas,my face feels cleaner and tighter ,it did need moisturiser on as it felt like my skin was screaming out for moisturiser an hour afterwards,
but i really liked using this mask and will be buying more of these.


on first applying to the skin,


5 minutes on the skin,

after 10 minutes and still bubbling,


so here is my first month of the new mask genie pouch and yes I'm happy with this subscription, i liked that we get to try out good quality masks, different masks, and also different kinds of sheet masks, i know they have been sourced from proper factories and the overall price of the pouch is great value as that included shipping, 
i look for ward to February's larger pouch,from now on, 
also each month we get to vote on one product to go in the following months pouch again,
i hope its the mediheal soda bubble mask,
if your interested in face masks take a look at the link above  and buy a monthly pouch to try out,
this is good value as sheets masks are not easy to come by still in the UK,
i will be back soon with the next pouch to review and show you.


BEST MASK OF JANUARY FOR ME 
THE MEDIHEAL MOGONGTOX SODA BUBBLE MASK,

mystery box by memebox

so memebox recently did a mystery box and i used some points up buying it ,
we thought this would have some clue but alas it seems to be just another warehouse box clearance,
this box contained 4 products, 
take at the boxes for sale here WEBSITE
or click on the banner.

MY BOX 



UN BOXED,



HOLLOGRAM COLLECTION MOISTURE SERUM,
this serum is so cool, 
it has a combined ingredients of active and scientific liposomes system, this gives the skin shine and moisture.
an anti-agein product. is a made up essence of 
mineral water gel- for skin penetration.
white and blue colours -for look,
it gives a long lasting hydration deep down into the skin and has added ice plant extract.
the serum is cooling to the touch and improves dryness and  dullness and redness all round, it helps to reduce wrinkles and fine lines while firming the skin.








LANGSRE ROSE BERRY70 SLEEPING PACK,
this non wash off sleep mask contains rose water ,rose petals, and niacin amide,highly moisturising it hydrates deep down into the skin, 
the skin is left firmer and smooth,with less signs of ageing.
repairs damaged skin and leaves glowing skin.



PUREPLUS + STRAWBERRY LIP TREATMENT,
with snail mucin this lip balm is a great moisturising treatment ,softens chapped lips, great as a sleep treatment ,a gentle strawberry scent,







RIRI PIGMENT,IN snow white,

this is supposed to be silver it looks like a tiny bit of glitter and someone has filled the pot up with cigarette ash, its clumpy ,there was no seal on the or internal lid,so its either bad or been opened , i have another one exactly the same and its fine and glittery, no like this pot at all.
i also tried to swatch this and it doesn't even go on the skin ,no colour its like dust.dirt dust,






so i like the sleeping pack as i already own one from a previous box,the strawberry lip treatment I'm ok with so glad it wasn't another honey ,but i so would of loved to got the milk version.its moisturising ,and nourishing,
the hologram moisture serum is short dated for end of the year and i have 3 of these now to use up,these products are in fact all really good, what I'm really not happy with is the eye shadow pigment , but  whats the point in complaining now,




if you live globally please read this ,
now for the bad news ,
as of  FEBRUARY 10TH 2015, memebox will longer ship international ,sad times after nearly 280 boxes ,
they will only ship to USA,china and Korea from there on, you can still buy boxes up to this date and they will ship to you but the option to buy outside these countries after will be no more, sad times.



ITS BEEN A FUN YEAR MEMEBOX WHEN IS THE DIVORCE PARTY I NEED CAKE,
