As lockdown is quickly coming to an end, we want to look and feel absolutely amazing and this months TOYL beauty box is all about focussing on the eyes with a mixture of eye care products, makeup products and a lip product to really grab your attention!
I have featured the TOYL box a few times on this blog and launched by Beauty PR and author Karen Davies. Time of Your Life is a beauty subscription service and online community hub which is aimed at women aged 35 and upwards. Each month, the box of products is packed with established and emerging skin and body care brands and is always worth over £100, this month it is worth over £147 and it features 6 full-sized products.
Featuring brands from Emma Hardie, Stila and Bellapierre, this April box is all about creating amazing looking eyes in just five minutes.
The first product in the box is from one of my favourite brands Emma Hardie. It is the Midas Touch Revitalising Eye Serum (15ml/ RRP £49.00) and I have a full review of this serum right here.
This lightweight serum is a product which lifts, tightens, smooths, fades dark circles and diminishes puffiness. This product is packed with Hyaluronic Acid, Omegas and Aloe Vera to cool eyes making it the perfect prep product for the rest of your eye look.
The second product out of the box is from Stila and it is the Suede Shade Liquid Eye Shadow. Within your box, you will either get the shade Nude Awakening which I have or the shade Sassy (4.5ml / RRP £24.00).
This Liquid Eye Shadow is said to offer a velvet-matte formula that can be worn alone or combined with something a little more sparkly. It uses a doe-footed applicator for easy use and as well as being weightless and long wearing, its matte formula features subtle iridescent pearls to prevent a flat appearance, adding a hidden lift while remaining velvety.
The third product is also from Stila and it is their Smudge Stick Waterproof Eyeliner in Lionfish (0.28g / RRP £22.00). Said to be their best-selling shade and will suit all skin tones.
This eye liner which can also be used a smudged eyeshadow is a reddish-brown almost burgundy shade and it has a gold shimmer to give it quite the sheen. This eyeliner is always sharp and never needs sharpening because there is a sharpener in the lid.
The fourth product is from Bellapierre with their Waterproof Gel Eye Liner in Sapphire (1.8g / RRP £17.00).
If you prefer a coloured eyeliner, then this one should tick all the boxes. Described as being creamy, Waterproof eyeliner which glides on effortlessly, it is formulated with pure minerals, natural waxes, and antioxidants thus making them hypoallergenic and safe for all skin types. The colour, Sapphire is a beautiful and bold shade of blue.
The fifth product in this box also comes from Bellapierre with their TwistUP Brow Pencil in the shade Cocoa.
This ultra-slim, retractable brow pencil is designed to give maximum precision when filling in sparse brows such as my own. This double-ended pencil features the Cocoa Brown shade on one end and on the opposite is a spoolie which is perfect for grooming the brows beforehand and blending once the colour has been added. It has an oil-free formula, is noncomedogenic and delivers smudge-free pigmentation that looks natural.
The final product in the box comes from Stila again and it is their Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso (3ml / RRP £17.00). This is quite the amazing shade and is described as being perfect for women over 40. Beso As you can see is the brightest Red.
This full coverage and colour-rich matte finish has a weightless texture and offers long-lasting results. Said to be a lipstick that won’t bleed, feather or transfer for up to six hours, it is enriched with vitamin E and avocado oil. Its formula is designed to gently nourish and hydrate the lips.
Now if this isn’t an incredible box for April then I don’t know what it is. Six amazing products from some incredible brands, all full-sized and for just £35 a month, I think this box is incredible value for money! Past boxes have included the likes of Elemis, Jurlique, Living Proof, Keyvan Aucoin, ByTerry and Molton Brown to name a few brands.
