BeTrousse: Summer Break Beauty Kit.

Last month BeTrousse kindly offered my readers the chance to win a beauty kit but I didnt have the chance to try the kit out for myself as BeTrousseUK, originally only available in France, only deliver to england (I'm in N.Ire) so imagine how shocked I was this morning when the delivery man showed up at my door with this huge box of goodies! I had no idea what it was and thought I must have ordered something late at night and completely forgot about it, as you do.

If you're not familiar with BeTrousse then basically its a beauty box with no subscription | You can see whats in each box before you place your order | All products are full sized and French | The beauty kits are always brilliant value for money.

BeTrousse Summer Break Beauty Kit*

The price of the box is £19 but the contents are worth £109. Madness! The product I grabbed first was the CINQ MONDES Roses Petal Rain Mist £28:  A soothing phyto-aramatic body mist to leave your skin perfumed, hydrated and softenened. This smells gorgeous and feels weightless on the skin. Its free from parabens, silicone and mineral oil which I'm really happy about so expect to see a review soon. | Benta Berry Moisturising Cream £12: This sounds like a miracle worker. Its designed to help hormonal skin, be great for acne, oily skin, pimples, blackheads etc. Im no teenager, I'm 26 but my hormones are up the left and its taking its toll on my skin so I'll definitely test this out over the next few months and let you know how I get on. | Lilas Blanc Secret Eclat Jeunesse Anti Wrinkle Day Cream £36.50: Lilas Blanc were the very first organic anti-aging brand on the market. I love organic skin care and I love anti-aging. I dont have any wrinkles yet but anything that promises to keep them at bay can only be a good thing and something I always buy in to. | Orhis Nourishing Face Cream £28:  All Orhis products are free from parabens, mineral oil, synthetic dye and  propylene glycol. It claims to nourish, repair, protect and is suitable for all skin types. | Cosmetoo Nails Express Nail Art Kit £3.90: My kit contains bow nail stickers, an orange stick and a little bag of tiny crystals. You know what I'm like about anything nail related, I'll probably have my nails plastered in crystals by the time I finish this post! Also included in the box but not mentioned on the website or info card is a sample of COSLYS Gel Douche: I have no idea what this is as theres no english on the packaging but I'm guessing its shower gel. Douche means shower doesnt it? I hope its not something else......

What do you think of this box? Have you tried any BeTrousse Kits yet? I love my skin care so I'm over the moon with it, especially the Rose Petal Rain Body Mist.

  7. The idea of seeing what you get first really appeals to me, although I expect some people do love to have a surprise. The nail bows are great :)

    1. I love surprises which is why I loved sample boxes so much at the start. It was like a prezzie every month but it soon got old when I wasnt impressed with most products I received.

      I might try the bows out tonight :)

  8. I love the idea of a beauty box without a subscription, and the fact it's from France makes it even better, you got some lovely products :) And yes 'douche' in French does mean shower, don't worry! xx

    1. This box would be great for anyone obsessed with skin care, not so much for people who prefer make up but thats the great thing about being able to see the contents first.

      Are you subscribed to any boxes? :)
