Blithe & Tosowoong from Jolse!

It's been a while since I last ordered from my favourite Korean beauty store, Jolse, but having seen an irresistible offer on both Blithe and Tosowoong, I decided to stock up on sheet masks as well as try a few new products. My purchases arrived in a much larger than expected box, with a plethora of free samples and gifts (bottom pile) including a full size Foodholic hand cream, a Secriss sheet mask, nose pore strips and pair of socks.

Lookfantastic Beauty Box - August 2017

When the August Lookfantastic beauty box landed at my door, I wondered if it was enough to redeem itself and make me remain a subscriber once my annual subscription lapses next month. Upon opening it, however, the answer was a resolute "no". The quality of the LF beauty box has slowly (but surely) gone downhill over the past year, and I've been finding myself less and less enthusiastic about receiving each box.

The Pip Box - July 2017

The Pip Box is a relatively new beauty box, launched in February this year if I remember correctly. Their main selling point is offering natural, cruelty-free products, and 50p from every box sold is donated to an animal friendly charity.

Powder Beauty Drawer Subscription - July 2017

The second month of my Powder Beauty Drawer monthly box landed at my door today, and fortunately, it's much better than the major disappointment that was the Lookfantastic July beauty box.

Lookfantastic Beauty Box - July 2017

The July 2017 Lookfantastic Beauty Box landed on my doorstep this afternoon and I have to say that I'm not thrilled at all by its contents (I would not recommend this month's box), and I will explain why. Also, just because it's summer right now, it doesn't mean that everyone wants tanning/bronzing products. There are perhaps a couple of items that I don't mind, but if I didn't have an annual subscription and I saw what's included this month, I wouldn't have touched this box with a bargepole.
