I have tried the Glossybox and Birchbox subscriptions, for a while, but I haven't been subscribed for month and months but I decided to go for the My Little Box to start a new subscription box. I've heard so many positive things about this box! Last months My Little Box was a cosy, night in themed box which I really wanted but I refrained and subscribed to the December box. The subscription is £11 per month (+ P&P) although the box contents is supposed to be worth over £65.
This months box is designed or based around the blogger and youtuber Fleur from Fleur De Force. I do follow her on youtube and I like her videos although not as much now as I did a year or so ago. I love the whole bloggers collaborating with big brands but I didn't buy this because of the fleur de force connection to the box. I don't know how much of a say she had in the products included or the design of the box but it is a great box nonetheless.
My Little Box is not just a beauty box, it is also a lifestyle box so you get a mixture of beauty and lifestyle samples and full size products in each box. The lifestyle items in the box include some gorgeous gift tags, washi tape and a bobbin of twine/thread which is just adorable!
The one accessory product in the box is a cute knitted headband; I received a black/gold headband but I believe there are two other colours. It fits well and it so comfortable and cosy; I don't know whether I would wear it out of the house though!
The beauty items from the box are from L'Occitane, Cowshed and the My Little Box own beauty line. Firstly, I have the L'Occitane Precious Cream which I think is one of their anti-aging creams - I haven't had a good experience with the few L'Occitane skincare products so I will be giving this to my mum to try. Although it is a very generous sample size and the packaging is luxe and surprisingly heavy. Next up is the Cowshed Wild Cow Invigorating Body Lotion (100ml), I thought the scent would be more festive/christmassy but it has a strong lemongrass scent which I personally don't like so I will give this to my mum or sister. The last beauty item is definitely my favourite, not only is the packaging so freakin' gorgeous (grey with gold stars) but the product is too. The lipstick looks like a bright pinky red in the tube but on my lips it isn't as red and it isn't as bright, it is very wearable - even for a nude/natural lip lover like me! Also the lipstick lasts so well on the lips!
Overall, I love the cute gift tags and tape as well as the headband and gorgeous lipstick! In the box you also receive a little print, which I personally won't use but there is also a cute re-useable drawstring canvas bag with 'do all things with love' printed on the front which I will definitely get a lot of use out of. In my opinion, I think it is definitely worth the money; I love the presentation, it is very pinterest worthy and on the whole the products were great. Just looking at their 'partners' I know their boxes are going to be great; I am looking forward to next months box!

I've never tried one of these subscription box things, but I always see them on blogs and I'm tempted to give them a try - it'd be such a lovely treat every month. I'll just have to put some money aside so I can give it a go!
