November Beauty Box Five: Gracefully Grounded

1. Laura Ashley Body Butter in Cherry Blossom ($3.50): This body butter is like no other, instead of having a thick creamy texture it is more of a lightweight gel. However it is still extremely moisturising, silky smooth to the touch, and quick absorbing, not to mention smells A-MA-ZING! 2. DenTek Floss Picks + Case ($2.49): Perfect for travelling or on-the-go, this refillable case fits 6 floss picks. 3. Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash ($6.49 for 22oz): I have always been a fan of Dove body washes, however for whatever reason always look past it in the drug store. This body wash is extremely creamy and has the freshest scent. From what I remember it leaves your skin feeling exceptionally clean, residue free, and hydrated.  4. L'Oreal Paris Nail Colour in Because You're Worth It #580 ($5.99): This gold/bronze metallic shade is perfect for the holidays. It has a fairly opaque formula, especially for a metallic polish, needing 2 or 3 coats. 5. HASK Macadamia Revitalizing Shine Oil ($2.99): A hydrating hair oil that helps with split ends, revitalises shine, leaves hair smooth, and smells like sweet goodness. 
August Beauty Box Five (Free Box): Radiant and Remarkable
1. Pūr~lisse Pūr-Protect Essential Daily Moisturizer ($55): I am no stranger to this brand, as I currently use this daily in my skin care routine. This moisturiser leaves the skin feeling smooth, hydrated, is lightweight, has SPF, and is perfect as a morning moisturiser before makeup. 2. Novex Brazilian Keratin Hair Care Cream ($14.99): This intense treatment renews and reinforces all hair types while nourishes dry damaged hair. 3. Nanacoco Lip Gloss in Carmel Latte ($3.99): A beautiful caramel coloured gloss with subtle shimmer, high gloss finish, sweet scent, smooth non-sticky texture, and translucent pigmentation. 4. La Fresh Travel Lite Makeup Remover Wipes ($19.99): These lightly scented makeup wipes for sensitive skin quickly removes makeup in one pass leaving the skin feeling smooth, however leaves a light oily finish. 5. Style Essentials Nail Polish ($7 Set of 4): This nail lacquer has white and black confetti like pieces mixed in with a clear polish base. This could look extremely cool, however it isn't really my style.
