June She Said Beauty Box

After receiving the Glossybox (reviews here and here) for a couple of months, I've decided to branch out and try other beauty boxes, and one that I've signed up to is the She Said Beauty box! 

The box was delivered to my work while I was on holiday, so coming in on a Monday morning to a nice package has made the transition back to work a little bit easier. 

On first the glance, the box has a very familiar colour - think high end jewellery and Audrey Hepburn. The box opens and closes with a magnetic fastening which is nice and stops me losing lids.

Inside I was very impressed with what I received:

This fragrance is to celebrate the Queens Diamond Jubilee which I like the idea of. The scent is self is very light, and not overbearing in the slightest. I may see how this fragrance goes and perhaps invest in a bottle - it is reasonably priced at £9.99 for 50ml, however it is on special offer at the moment at £7.49/50ml but I don't know how long that special price is lasting. 

St. Tropez Self Tan Perfect Legs
If I'm honest, this is quite possibly the product I'm most impressed with of all the things in the box, it is full size and obviously St Tropez is a very well known brand, though I didn't know it existed. I shall definitely be using this when the weather is nice enough for me to get my legs out!

and there was even a bonus product inside - Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream

My only criticism of this box is that the material they used inside for the padding has shed quite a bit and stuck to a lot of the plastic bottles, and has even dried out the glue on the box meaning that it is beginning to come away from the sides, but that is purely aesthetic and hasn't affected the products in the slightest.


She Said Beauty Box is available for monthly subscription of £9 plus p+p but other subscription options are available. If you follow them on Twitter they will quite possibly message you with discount codes.

Has anybody else received this box? What were your thoughts?

  2. I LOVE BEAUTY BOXES!
    And I fell so sad to know that in Brazil we have fewer choices than in the UK, I really miss living there!

    These one actually I've never tried and looks really amazing right?!
