A New Year means taking stock of everything, beauty box subscriptions included. I've decided to keep just the one subscription box this year, and it is the LookFantastic Beauty Box.
Why? For starters, it's just £12 or so per month, since I'm on a long-term subscription. For another, I don't pay upfront; only each month when the box ships out. For a third, there are some nice perks, such as a discount on the amazing Advent Calendar. Fourthly, on an average, the boxes are quite nice, and come with extras such as the Elle Magazine.
So let's take a look at LookFantastic's first beauty box for 2018. They've revamped the box design - a nice periwinkle blue and mint green combo. The product leaflet has also undergone a makeover.

LookFantastic Beauty Box June 2017 Unboxing

LookFantastic Beauty Box June 2017 Unboxing

Unboxing Cosmetopia Digest   Tuesday, June 13, 2017

I shot a video of this unboxing over the weekend, only to find that the results were way too dark in this sunless, rainy weather. Turns out it's the Sony Handycam's fault, while my Canon DSLR is a far better choice for videos under poor lighting conditions. Lesson learnt.
LookFantastic's June 2017 beauty box is the Wanderlust edition - obviously containing travel essentials. The box design is one of the prettiest till date. Size has gone up as well, and now the box itself accommodates the Elle UK magazine for the month.

LookFantastic Beauty Box December 2016 Review

LookFantastic Beauty Box December 2016 Review

Skin care Cosmetopia Digest   Friday, December 16, 2016

After my November LookFantastic Beauty Box arrived a mere five days post-despatch, the December one crawled its way around the globe, arriving mid-month. Still, a late package is better than a LOST package, I say.
This month's LF Beauty Box is themed #LFXmas, of course. The packaging is rose gold - to match with the gorgeous LookFantastic Advent Calendar 2016, which I had unboxed here.
The Elle UK magazine for December 2016 is also included with the box. I hope they continue this well into 2017.

Holiday 2016 Gift Guide: 10 Budget Beauty Christmas Baubles (Worldwide Shipping)

Zoella Cosmetopia Digest   Tuesday, November 29, 2016

This year, in lieu of stocking stuffers for my friends, I am getting nifty beauty products packaged like Christmas ornaments, that I can hang surreptitiously on their trees - hopefully without them noticing.
For someone really special, you could actually get a small Christmas tree - something fancy and blingy - and add a dozen or more of these beauty ornaments. I know I would spend the next one year appreciating such a gift!
All of these ship worldwide, and sell out very quickly!

Yardley Cosmetopia Digest   Monday, October 31, 2016

In October, my skincare routine has been more regular and diligent than it was in September. I have been going through a multi-step routine for the face every morning and evening, including double cleansing on most evenings, and have moisturised all over twice daily. I've used AHA/BHA acids and Vitamin C almost every day. See here for my 10-step skincare routine.

If, like me, rosehip oil, rose extract and rose water are staple ingredients in your skincare routine, then there is great news that will save you a nice bit of money.
Online retailer Beauty Expert has a special Rose Edition collection put together for just £50, inclusive of worldwide shipping costs - everything is full-sized, and the individual cost of the products actually comes to a whopping £134. That's a saving of £84. Not bad, eh?

LookFantastic Best of British Beauty Box August 2016

LookFantastic Best of British Beauty Box August 2016

Unboxing Cosmetopia Digest   Friday, September 02, 2016

I went to university in the UK, and had a lovely time in the aisles of House of Fraser, Debenhams, Boots, Selfridges, Harrods, and Superdrug, despite being on a student budget. So when I found that LookFantastic's August 2016 Beauty Box was themed #LFBestOfBritish, my excitement and expectations hit the roof. So many of my favourite brands are British, and LookFantastic itself retails worldwide from the UK. I did, however, expect the box to be primarily skincare.
