Feel Unique Monthly Beauty Box - October Contents!

October’s Feel Unique Box has now arrived and as ever, I’d like to show you the contents. The reason for is that I still think that the Feel Unique box isn’t quite as well known or widely blogged about as the likes of Glossybox and Boudoir Privé; and also because it contains some more mainstream brands that may appeal to readers of this blog who haven’t yet heard of it or who would like to see a multiple box content posts to judge whether or not they think it would contain products that would be right for them. So without further ado, here is what I received!

Full Size:
Tigi Catwalk Sleek Mystique Mystique Straight Collection Blow Out Balm, 90ml (£10.35) – This blow out balm promises to give ‘touchable, glossy hair without sacrificing natural fullness’ which sounds great as straight hair can often mean lifeless hair with no body. I’m looking forward to giving this a whirl!
ORLY ‘Mani Minis’ Nail Lacquer, 5.3ml (£5) – I’ve put this into full sized products because whilst this is a mini compared to the full sized 18ml bottles, these actually get sold in Boots at a fiver each, so I feel is still a full sized product that can be bought as such! I love ORLY nail polishes, so I’m really pleased to get this and let’s face it, you can never really go wrong with a classic red polish!

Good Sized Samples:
Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash, 60ml, £5.60 (Full size 197ml, £18.40) – This is a 2-in-1 cleanser and exfoliator and my first impressions are very good, it smells lovely and the exfoliating grains are very fine, yet still did a nice job of exfoliating my hand. I can’t use it on my face as I am currently doing other skincare trials but it does look promising.
Crabtree & Evelyn India Hicks Island Living Spider Lily Hand Therapy, 25ml, £3.50 (Full size 100g, £14.00) – Despite the rather terrifying mention of a spider in the name of the product, I actually really like this hand cream. The tube reminds me of the L’Occitane style tubes and it’s a good sized sample but one that can easily be put into my handbag and carried around with me (very useful). I haven’t used it long term, but after using it a couple of times I do feel that it moisturises very well and it also smells GORGEOUS, I can’t stop smelling my hands after applying it!!
Caudalíe Vinexpert Radiance Day Fluid, 10ml, £10.20 (Full size 30ml, £30.60) –This product is said to offer ‘firming, protective and anti-wrinkle action along with optimum moisture to ensure a glowing complexion all day long’ which sounds very nice indeed, don’t you think? Last month’s box also contained a Caudalíe product, one from their Vinoperfect range, but I’m still looking forward to giving this a try too!

Normal Sample Size:
Burberry Body EDP Fragrance Sample, 2ml, £2.57 (Full size 35ml, £45) – I like the idea of getting perfume samples but I always have at the back of my mind that I could generally get these vial samples for free from department stores etc... and I actually do have a free sample of this fragrance coming from their Facebook promotion. Regardless, it’s a very nice perfume indeed (kind of sweet and musky all at the same time), and because it’s an EDP you don’t need to use as much, meaning the sample should last a little longer.

My box contents are worth approximately £37.22 in total which is quite good for the price I paid. I’m still ‘feeling’ the Feel Unique box so I will continue for yet another month. Do any of this month’s contents grab your attention?

Oh, I almost forgot to mention that you get 10% off all brands featured in the beauty box each month which is a nice bonus. The code for this month is BBOCT10 – I hope they don’t mind me putting this on for you, I can’t see how it would be a problem though, as any sale when using this code is a bonus for them!

The Feel Unique Beauty Box is available here for £9.95 per month.

  1. I wouldn't be particularly impressed with the Burberry Body sample as you could order a free sample on their Facebook that was much better!
