Look Fantastic Beauty Box #October

As it was an October box I thought they may of gone down the Spooky Halloween route. Which I do personally love (all things Halloween all the time for me) but instead they went down a Cosy Night In route, which I’m not mad at!!

In fact with light of the Cottage holiday we have planned, a Spa like evening would be greatly loved.

#Glov Hair Wrap rrp £14.99

A pure White soft hair wrap, to cut down drying time, or to make it easier to sleep in a hair mask overnight. With it being pure White I’m not sure what my hair dye will do to it. But I’m sure going to take it and try it out, even if it does end up all pink lol

#ECooking Overnight Foot Cream 30ml rrp £8.10

What a treat for my feet, Cornwall is a planned walking holiday so I can’t wait to kick my walking boots off and treat them with eucalyptus and methol nourishing cream, I’ll use over Night and add socks to make it more intense.

#ByTerry Baume De Rose Flaconnette rrp £14.00

A delicate scented rose flower wax and shea butter lip balm, travel sized so it’s a great handbag essential. The cold weather always has me reaching for my lip balms.

#Starskin Soothing Bio Cellulose Second Skin Eye Catcher Mask rrp £4.25

Reduce eye puffiness, and the appearance of fine lines, ease some wrinkles away and dark circles. Can’t wait to try these out.

#BubbleT Earl Grey Bath Tea rrp £5.99

A warm relaxing scent to lure you into a dreamy bath, formulated to ease aches and pains to help relax muscles. What could be better to take to the cottage, perfect after endless walks and achy hips.

#BalanceMe Bakuchiol Serum 7ml rrp £11.00

Never heard of Bakuchiol, but they say it’s 100% natural, plant based retinol alternative. Which still gives anti aging benefits, but without the skin irritation and sensitivity.

As I have MCAS (Mass Cell Activation Syndrome) I often react to things, so I’ll be interested to see if this flares me up.

Getting into the Spirit of Samhain

Samhain, (pronounced sow een) isn’t just the 31st, it’s the whole month for me, and it started with a painting session at Pretty Pots

Painted with paints while having a good coffee and chat, needs to be in the klin and I pick it up in two weeks time.

I’d previously painted this offering plate a few weeks earlier.

Rustic and wonky, but deeply personal and a treasured memory, as this was my belated mothers day gift.

Bought light up pumpkins to adorn the darker nights, and give ambient light.

And I’ve been buying some goodies for the Main night. We are hoping to be in Boscastle if possible. We have a cottage booked for a week. There is no Wi-Fi and it’s a week of walking, and enjoying back to basics.

All my little Samhain decorations are out to play too. It feels so good to get our spooky on!!
