The November Edition of Roccabox has landed and it is aptly titled 'Rest, Relax and Reset' and I am thrilled to be able to share it with you in this blog post.
I am not entirely sure how we have moved so quickly from the Summer to it now being 6 weeks from Christmas, already I have office parties and dinners in the diary for the next month, a stark contrast to last year when that diary I bought remained empty, though a poignant reminder of how lucky I am to still be here. This months Roccabox is all about instigating a bit of mind and body detox and take as much of an opporunity as we can to relax and wind down before the festive season kicks off.
The first product out of the box comes from Mudmasky and it is their Mineral infused double-cleansing Mask. Described as being a 3-in-1 formula, it is a non-foaming, fragrance-free cleansing mask is infused with rich minerals to detoxify and deep cleanse your face in an evening.
This cleanser is formulated with a blend of cleansing minerals and the brands signature Premium Moroccan lava clay. This effective formula works to bring your skin’s pH in balance again, reduce redness and it help preventing and reducing acne.
The second product is from Symbiosis London with their Tightening and Resplendent Eye Mask which is described as being a revolutionary innovation in the beauty market in the form of an Eye Mask in-cream to tighten, rejuvenate and brighten the delicate eye area.
Rich in hyaluronic acid, which penetrates into the skin to hydrate and improve the appearance of imperfections, fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin. Then we have Pullulan which aims to instantly provide a skin-tightening effect as it adheres to the skin and then finally Shea Butter which works as an emollient to keep your skin, young and supple as it also aims to help tighten and lessen the wrinkles and fine lines appearance.
The third product comes from Daily Concepts with their Reusable Rounds, within the box you get a pack of 2 to try.
These natural and reusable makeup removal rounds are described as being the perfect solution for helping you to start minimising your eco footprint. I have completely changed over from using Cotton wool pads to using re-usables. These pads are ideal for cleaning and makeup removal, they stop the need for cotton wool pads and makeup wipes - both of which you dispose of, with these, you simply wash them and reuse them.
From Bloom and Blossom comes the Pjamarma Dry Body Oil, which is such a brilliant name for a product. Described as being a relaxing body moisturisation without the 'waiting-for-it-to-dry' time.
This is a spray on oil, so it is really easy to use and it smells absolutely incredible. Using the likes of Frankincense, our holistic healing fragrance hero helps to calm your mind, Moringa Seed Oil which is rich in essential fatty acids and is also high in antioxidants, plus it also helps to reduce inflammation. Then there is Evening Primrose Oil which is described as being a super ingredient that does everything from wrinkles to roughness, dryness to downright irritation. I have only had this oil for about a week and I absolutely love it, so much so ive ordered another bottle.
The final product within this box comes from Skin Chemists with their Advanced Collagen Facial Toner.
This toner, which is designed to be used after cleansing, uses three main ingredients - Aloe Vera for its hydrating and soothing properties plus its ability to help improve the skins texture, Chamomile which again is know for its soothing properties and Collagen which with its moisturising properties, helps to soften and rejuvenate the skin. On the skin, this Toner is delightful to use, it doesn't have that strong alcohol content that I find with similar products and it does a great job at soothing and smoothing my skin.
I think this box has a little bit of everything to help you rest, relax and reset. The products that have been included make a wonderful bundle and if I had to pick a favourite product from the box, I think you might have guessed it is the Bloom and Blossom Pjamarma Dry Body Oil.
This box of delights is said to be worth over £147. Roccabox is a beauty box subscription service and there are further subscription offers available to choose from with boxes starting at just £15 per month plus P&P.
