| Korres Wild Rose 24 Hour Moisturising & Brightening Cream |
I've tried this moisturising cream before as I received it in one of my other beauty boxes from a rival company. At first I felt a bit let down until I remembered it was a product that I'd actually enjoyed using. It contains vitamin c and claims to keep skin hydrated for 24 hours and repair fine lines. It's a nice moisturiser to use. Smells ok, absorbs well and does leave my skin feeling very nice. I do have some fine lines on my forehead but to be quite honest I don't really pay much attention to how creams affect them! My main concern is whether it hydrates my skin and if it leaves it feeling soft. Happily this cream does both.

| Eldora False Eyelashes style B158 |
I'm not hugely into false lashes I have always found them difficult to apply and I just don't have the patience to keep trying. These are really pretty, feminine, feathery lashes and I will give them a try at some point just to see how they look. They are reusable and come in many different styles, over 200 according to the Carmine website.

| Balance Me Radiance Face Oil |
I wasn't really sure about trying this at first. The idea of putting oil on my face wasn't one I liked to be truthful but I went ahead and tried it anyway. I was worried that I would be left with a layer of oil sitting on my skin but this actually absorbs really well and leaves my face satin soft and radiant. It is 100% natural and the Balance Me website states that this will actually help congested skin so don't be worried about trying this. I like this a lot and I think I will likely buy the full size product once I finish my sample.

I can't comment much on this product as I don't often take baths preferring to shower instead. It sounds promising from the information on the website (click link above) for anyone wanting to detox. I haven't opened this, as I don't know whether to keep this and try it as a scrub or offer it to one of my bath loving friends, so I have no idea what it smells like.

| Eyeko Fat Eye Stick |
I like this a lot even though I haven't had chance to play with it much. I really like the colour I received. I seem to be going through a brown/gold/neutral phase at the moment so this is just perfect. It can be used as a liner or smudged onto the eyelid for a smoky look. I don't usually buy products like this as the creamy formula doesn't last too well on me so it will be interesting to see how it lasts over the course of a day.

I don't think this box was as strong as previous months in my opinion, although there are some great products in here that I will enjoy using. Do you subscribe to Carmine? What did you think of this box compared to others?
