My Little Provence Box

My Little Box is a french beauty and lifestyle subscription box which I have been subscribed to for a least five months and I have loved almost all of the boxes. Last months 'my little dream box' was the best yet and this one is pretty good too. 

The theme for this box is Provence which just reminds me of sunny french summers and lavender but there isn't anything lavender themed or scented in this box which I thought was quite unusual! However there are two lifestyle items, five beauty items and the magazine and print as well. 

Firstly, the lifestyle products. The first is a magnetic doll which has numerous clothing pieces and accessories to put on her which I think is a cute idea, especially if you have children although it was difficult to remove all of the magnetic items from the sheet - she is now on our fridge but I'm sure al of the pieces will become lost soon. The second lifestyle item is a DIY bracelet which is such a fun, unique idea and I think I will be giving this to one of my friends who will love it. The bracelet is a cuff style bracelet, it is gold and it comes with thread that you can create a pattern with in the holds in the bracelet!

Now onto the beauty pieces, all but one are from one of my favourite french brands - L'Occitane which is such a good deal as L'Occitane products are on the pricy side so to have four travel sizes in a beauty box is amazing, in my opinion. You get two verbena products (a soap and a body lotion) which I will be giving to my dad as he loves the scent, a rose hand cream which my mum will be happy to receive and the mer and mistral shower gel which smells incredible and I will definitely be keeping it for myself! The fifth and final beauty item is a bronzy eyeshadow stick from the my little boxes own beauty line. 

Overall, a very nice box with some cute lifestyle items and amazing L'Occitane travel sizes which would be great for holidays. I think the inclusion of the L'Occitane items makes this box even more great value for money although I did love last months box more. I can't wait to see what next months box will contain!

Are you subscribed to My Little Box? What do you think of this box? Have you tried any of these L'Occitane products?

My Little Dream Box (April 2015)

My Little Box is the only subscription box I am currently subscribed to and in my opinion it is by far the best! I have received about four/five boxes from them now (they are around £13 per month) and some have been better than others but on the whole it is such a pleasant surprise to see what is inside. This months box is the best yet!

This months box is the 'dream' box and it contains three beauty items, one accessory and one lifestyle product. The My Little Boxes are always so beautifully packaged and so pinterest worthy but this one is even better! You get a magazine in the box as you always do but this time it is a pull out sheet rather than an actual magazine, I'm not a fan but that is the only negative in this box. 

The three beauty items are: My Little Beauty Repairing Hair Mask For Dry Ends (£7, 100ml), Nominoe Gentle Foam Cleanser (£21, 150ml - 50ml included) and the Loved By Lou Lesage Baume Rouge Velour which is a red tinted lip balm. I only received my box yesterday so I haven't tried any of the products but they all look great!

Now onto the accessory, it came in an adorable cloud pouch! The award for the best packaging ever definitely goes to My Little Box! Cut out a corner of the cloud and there is a gorgeous gold coin necklace with a coral cord from Delphine Parienne X My Little Box (£20) which is just adorable. I'm wearing the necklace now, it's perfect for spring/summer as it is simple and classic but it has some colour to it. It easy to wear, it is light weight and comfortable. It has 'Bonne Etoile' print on one side and the designers name on the other. 

Last but not least, my favourite item that I have ever received in a subscription box...It's a rubber stamp (£8) which has 12 different rotations such as 'made with love', 'To do', 'merci beaucoup' and more. The stamp also comes with a pad of black ink too. I cannot wait to start using it *stationary nerd*

Overall, I think this is one of the best subscription boxes I've ever received! I am so happy with everything, especially the necklace and stamp/ink which I will be using very soon.
