February's Joliebox

Bonjour ladies,

So after a long, hard day at work- i returned home to find that my first Joliebox had finally decided to bless me with its presence. It feels like i've waited an eternity for this box to come, so i was more than excited to here it had finnaly arrived.

It's the same idea as Glossybox, etc. You pay £10 + P&P each month and receive a lovely box (or in this case a lovely bag within a box) filled with four to five exclusive, hand-picked beauty samples.




The packaging looks very chic. I really like the idea of the little drawstring bag within the box, it's a nice touch. Adds a certain flare to it i think.


 Heres the contents

Jane Iredale Just Kissed Lip and Cheek Stain in Forever Pink

"An all-natural, multi- purpose stain that adjusts its colour to your mood and temperature."

I really love this even if it is tiny. It turns out a nice sort of deep pink on my lips, it feels really nourishing aswell.

Lavera Basis Sensitive Organic Hand Cream

"An organic hand cream with Shea butter and Almond extracts"

I received this in my Latest in Beauty Refresh & Recover Box last month.Don't get me wrong, it's a great little hand cream, i just feel like i've got creams and lotions coming out my ears at the moment.

Macadamia Deep Repair Masque

"This ultra-conditioning hair masque will rebuild damaged hair for improved shine and elasticity."

I tried this a few weeks ago from my Macadamia Natural Oil Travel Set, i really liked it so i'm pleased. This comes in a sachet, it smells divine.

RMK Ceansing Oil

"A cleansing oil with a refreshing scent of mint and Damascus Rose"

Oh, i'm intrigued about this product. The only thing that makes it slightly 'blah' is that it's a sachet.

TAJJ Himalaya Micellar Water

"An antioxidant and tonic make-up remover that will revitalise and purify skin"

Really looking forward to trying this out, comes in a decent sized bottle too. Heres hoping it removes those pesky panda eyes.


There was also a Joliebox concealer brush as an added extra.


Overall, i'm pleased with my first Joliebox. It's full of products that i will use, i agree with the majority that it does lack the 'wow' factor but i'm not dissatisfied with it. I shall be continuing with my subscription and am looking forward to what may be in store for us with the next box.

What did you make of this months Joliebox?

    1. I had a little read Amy. Yeah the sachets are a bit iffy, not a big fan of sachets.

  6. These looks great! I've always wanted to try the lip and cheek stain from Jane Iredale.

    I wish we could get beauty boxes like Joliebox, Glossybox etc. in Norway! Sadly none of the beauty box companies delivers to Norway right now, but at least Glossybox recently started sending to Sweden, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
