It's that time again- I can't believe how quickly this year is going! Yes, it's time for my review of June's Natural Beauty Box! Those of you who follow me on social media or read this blog regularly will know that this is my absolute favourite and I look forward to receiving it every month!
For those of you who are not familiar with this box, they are a monthly subscription service featuring only natural, cruelty free products that are often also vegan and organic. I have been getting this box for 2 years now and in that time, I have not once been disappointed.
As is the standard now, I unboxed this on my YouTube channel, which you can catch here:
I only saw a couple of spoilers for this box, which I love! I like to see at least one spoiler to get me excited but I also like the element of surprise too! The theme for June was 'Summer Essentials'- very fitting as always as we head into what I hope will be a lovely summer here in the UK! A mixture of brands I know and brands I don't, I can't wait to tell you about it!
First up was a brand I have tried a few times in the past- Organii SPF15 Facial Sun Cream (RRP £14.95). This non greasy spf protects your skin from harmful rays thanks to the inclusion of non-nano Zinc Oxide and non-nano Titanium Dioxide, which sit on top of the skin, reflecting the suns rays and creating a protective barrier. It also contains skin nourishing and moisturising ingredients such as extracts of organic Argan, Jojoba, Sunflower, Olive Fruit, Linseed, Rice Bran and Karanja oils to protect the skin while keeping skin soft and supple, as well as added anti-ageing ingredients of carrot seed extract, flax seed oil and hyaluronic acid to protect and firm the skin. It is water resistant, paraben free, Colourant free, organic, natural and cruelty free- that's a lot of goodness! I was really excited to see this as I have tried Organii sun protection before and really liked it. I have also tried their hand creams, which are also gorgeous. I have just run out of my last tube of facial sun cream by another brand so this could not have come at a better time! It absorbs really well, doesn't feel greasy or clogging and actually made my makeup sit on my skin much better too.
Item number 2 was from a brand I adore- I make no secret of that! I have reviewed them a number of times here and they are very much a friend of the blog. It is the Lavera Lime Organic Deodorant Roll On in Lime and Verbena (RRP £7.95). This contains deodorising Zinc, Cotton extract and Rice extract to keep you fresh all day long as well as zingy lime and verbena to revive the mind and body. It provides long-lasting odour protection and invigorating freshness with valuable active ingredients such as green tea and witch hazel that form part of the effective deodorising formula. This smells absolutely amazing, feels really soothing to my underarms and keeps me feeling fresh all day!
Another brand I have tried a few times- in fact, I used one of their products this morning! Ovviovita Olio Regina Hair and Brow Oil (RRP £20). This is a 100% Natural, Lightweight, Nutritive & Herbalized Hair Oil made with a custom blend of Ayurvedic Herbs & Oils to help reduce dandruff, itchy scalp and soften & condition your hair. You can also use it on your brows to promote thicker and fuller arches. There are many great benefits to this amazing oil, including preventing dandruff, promoting thicker brows, preventing itchy scalp and preventing premature greying. This product also has No Silicones, No Parabens, No Sulphates, No Mineral Oil, No Artificial Colors, No Petroleum and is natural and cruelty free. I love to take care of my hair and so whenever I see another hair product I haven't tried, I get a little excited! I am a little wary of using oils on my hair as they can make it feel greasy and weigh it down but that doesn't happen here. It smells beautiful and I absolutely love the unique packaging that it comes in too. My hair is very grateful- and how had I never thought of using hair oil on my brows before? Absolute game changer!
Number 4 now, and yet another brand I have been impressed with before- Bella Pierre Vegan Shimmer Powder (RRP £10.00). There were various shades available and I received the shade 'Oblivious', which is a gorgeous bronze/gold colour. Using 100% pure Mica powder, these beautiful shimmer powders will provide long lasting, vibrant colour without any additional filler that can often smear, crease, fade and even cause allergic reaction. Recommended by make-up artists and dermatologists, bellapierre shimmer powders are 100% Hypoallergenic and are suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive. It comes in a sifter jar, so you always get the right amount you need. I have to say, I am still struggling when it comes the natural makeup, some of my makeup items have still not made the switch to being natural, so when I receive items like this in boxes I am always so happy to add more amazing natural makeup to my collection. I absolutely adore the colour of this, it suits my skintone perfectly and doesn't make me look like a glitterball either! Gorgeous!
Finally, item number 5 is a brand I have not come across before- Crown Soaps Capital Body Butter- Mint and Grapefruit (RRP £13). This is a cooling, energising and uplifting moisturising cream with antibacterial properties to soothe the skin. It is great for healing acne and fighting cellulite. It has a delightful blend of Mint and Grapefruit to uplift your mood and make you feel energized. This combination of embraces the freedom of citrusy grapefruit and renowned mint. It is of course natural and cruelty free and has no artificial colours. This is so luxurious and puts me in such a good mood too. I am dreading this running out!
Another very successful edit and all brands I love! The total RRP of the box is £65.90, which is a great saving!
There are a few different ways you can purchase or subscribe to this box:
Monthly rolling subscription- £24.95
3 month prepay- £71.10
6 month prepay- £138.00
One off box- £25.95
Bimonthly- £24.95 every 2 months
Plastic free quarterly- £24.95 every quarter
They also do 'Lucky Dip' boxes on their website which contain 3 products from past boxes so you can get a taster for the service- this is priced at £10. All of the above options include delivery.
I have said this so many times but I will say it again- this box is my absolute favourite and it never lets me down. It is not often that you can subscribe to a box for 2 years and not have a single 'dud' box or a repeat item but Emma, who is the woman behind this box, always manages to blow me away every month with new brand discoveries and some new products from old faithful brands I already know and love. Everytime this box lands on my doorstep, it feels like Christmas and my birthday rolled into one! I'm already excited for next months offering!
