LoveLula Beauty Box November 2018

I’ve been incredibly busy juggling various projects and I can’t believe November is almost over.  It’s time to share this month’s LoveLula Beauty Box which has a total value of £66.

It was nice to see some new products for me.  Here’s what’s inside…

Let’s get started with the product that sparkled a lot of conversations in the LoveLula Beauty Club Facebook group.

 

The Perfect V – VV Cream Gentle Exfoliator (50ml | £31)

Beauty Cream For The V

Exfoliate. Refine. Renew.

Gently Exfoliates The V Area For Cell Renewal And To Help Ward Off And Prepare Skin For Any Potential Problems With In-Grown Hairs And Redness.

  • Rejuvenates and enhances the delicate skin
  • Natural AHA acids (lemon, sugar cane, sugar maple and orange extracts) along with Jojoba Oil provide soft exfoliating for this delicate area
  • Conditions with natural vitamin E oil
  • Gently repairs damaging effects of hair removal
  • Bilberry, Cloudberry and Lingonberry provide an anti-aging and conditioning treatment for the V
  • Elderflower calms and soothes the skin

 

Ingredients:

Aqua (Water), Cetearyl Alcohol, Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Glyceryl Stearate, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Glycerin, Coco-Caprylate, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Cetearyl Glucoside, Vaccinium Myrtillus (Bilberry) Extract, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil, Benzyl Alcohol, Potassium Sorbate, Glyceryl Caprylate, Octyldodecyl Myristate, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Xanthan Gum, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane) Extract, Capparis Spinosa Fruit Extract, Tocopherol, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Salicylic Acid, Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Oil, Sodium Phytate, Acer Saccharum (Sugar Maple) Extract, Rubus Chamaemorus Fruit Extract, Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract, Citric Acid, Rosa Canina Fruit Extract, Sambucus Nigra Flower Extract, Vaccinium Vitis-Idaea Leaf Extract, Sorbic Acid, Sodium Benzoate

This is a new brand on LoveLula and I have to say when I first read what it was I had a little giggle.  I’m all for exfoliating my face and body but I never thought it was necessary or safe to exfoliate my delicate V area. 

I shave sometimes and then I get bumps and ingrown hairs which isn’t fun.  I had initially dismissed using this product and was going to use it on my body.  However after a few weeks I thought why not and I finally gave in and used it. 

To use, lightly dampen the V area (the bikini line and visible delicate skin of the triangle area) and apply V V Cream™ Exfoliator in a small circular motion to remove dead skin cells. Use 2-3 times a week as part of your beauty VANICURE™ regimen.

Surprisingly it was really gentle and didn’t cause any irritation.  I was really pleased it didn’t get any bumps or ingrown hairs.  It is rather pricey at £31 though so don’t think I will repurchase.

 
Alteya Organics Rosehip Seed Oil (20ml | £8.75)

Alteya’s 100% USDA certified organic cold pressed Rosehip Oil is exceptionally rich in essential fatty acids (Omega 3 & 6). This powerful and pure antioxidant oil is great for soothing, softening and hydrating your skin and is perfect for everyday use.

Ingredients:

Pure Organic Rosehip Seed Oil (Rosa Canina)

I love Alteya Organics and their Rosehip seed oil is great.  Rosehip seed oil is always a great one to have.  It deeply hydrates and softens the skin and helps with skin discoloration and the effects of sun damage.

It absorbs very well and leaves my skin deeply nourished.  I also love to use it on my hair and scalp as it’s non-greasy and moisturising.

 
UrbanVeda Purifying Exfoliating Facial Polish (125ml | £12.99)
Naturally formulated for a deep cleanse, this award-winning revitalising scrub contains natural Pumice to exfoliate, cold-pressed Neem oil and refreshing Spearmint to remove impurities and treat blackheads. Antioxidant-rich Mulberry, Bearberry and Quassia work in synergy with naturally astringent Witch hazel and collagen-boosting Arjuna extract to reduce excess sebum, refine pores and leave skin hydrated. 

Ingredients:

Aqua (Water), Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Isopropyl Palmitate, Glycerin, Cetearyl Alcohol, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Water, Glyceryl Stearate, Pumice, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Polyglyceryl-3 Dicitrate/Stearate, Phenoxyethanol, Alcohol, Aroma (Flavor), Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Alcohol Denat., Xanthan Gum, Chlorphenesin, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil, Melia Azadirachta Seed Oil, Menthol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium EDTA, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil, Illicium Verum, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Mentha Viridis, Terminalia Arjuna Bark Extract, Citric Acid, Arctostaphylos Uva Ursi (Bearberry) Extract, Morus Nigra (Mulberry) Root Extract, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Ascorbic Acid, Limonene

Unfortunately I always have to give UrbanVeda products a pass, so I’ll be passing this on to a friend.

A potent bio active peel mask designed to renew the complexion, reduce the appearance of fine lines and dramatically improve skin tone.

Removes dead skin cells to renew the complexion. Skin looks brighter, healthier, more radiant. Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Combats congestion, blackheads and blemishes.

This mask does a good job at smoothing and refining my skin.  The texture is a little sticky but it glides on the skin easily.  It has a slight tingly sensation on application, I leave it on for 10 minutes and then rinse off. 

It leaves my skin smooth, soft and brighter.

 I’ve used Natura Siberica for a number of years now and it’s great to see them stocked on LoveLula.  This is a nice hand cream that leaves my hands soft and moisturised.  It has a nice scent which isn’t overpowering (though I don’t think the fragrance is 100% natural)

 

I’m hoping December’s box has some lovely festive treats!

 

What do you think of this month’s box?
