Cohorted Black Beauty Box February 2016



I'm not overly excited by this months box, I have actually quite disappointing when I opened it up and saw the contents. For a normal beauty box it would be great, but for what they promise and the impression they give of their boxes, it just isn't great. I also much, much prefer the look incredible box, which does what cohorted is supposed to do,   for that reason i have for now unsubscribed from this box, next months will be my last as i have already paid for it.

Elemis Pro Collagen Hydra-Gel Eye Masks - £15
When i first saw this i thought it was a sample sachet. It still is not technically a full size product as they come in a pack of 6 for £45. But after trying these i really enjoyed the feeling of them, im a bit young for anti-aging skincare so in that respect i didn't notice them doing anything, they just felt really, really good.

BareMinerals Night Treatment - £45
This product is mad, and i'm still not sure i understand it. It is supposed to reduce the appearance of pores (i don't really have big pores), improve luminosity and deliver increased cell turnover. The latter two i am really excited about.  This is the shade medium, which while in a night time product this is not an issue i have noticed that all the 'base' products they send are in a medium shade which is another reason for me unsubscribing as i have porcelain skin. I have only used this once so i can't say weather or not i have noticed a difference in my skin but i can say that the brush is wonderful, it applys and feels nice on the skin and thankfully it does not make me look like a oompa lompa. But this is a product i think i will introduce into my night time skin care.

Dover Underarm Cream £20?
We were supposed to get the pixie crayon combo but the delivery did not arrive to them in time. This was another product that made me disappointed in the box, Again it wouldn't be in any other box but along with their promises it is. Also i dont really have a use for this, so that makes it kind of redundant for me

Cargo Long Wear Lip Gloss £10.00
Again, i know im sounding like a negative nelly here, but this is another product i was not excited about. I have never really enjoyed anything i have tried from cargo, plus it is bright red and sticky on the lips. I did try it and while the colour was not as bad on me as i thought it would be, the gloss did come away from the center of my lips very quickly.

Marc Jacobs Lola perfume sample
I actually enjoy this, I know a lot of people do have issue with perfume samples, but honestly, i love them. I'm a perfume girl through and through and the more scents i have in my collection the  better, no matter what size they are. I have a cute little jar that i keep all my samples in so this has gone straight into that.

Chanel Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow £25
This was the main product this month and i am in love. The product itself is pretty fascinating to me because it bounces like a sponge. The colour is just gorgeous and while it is a little dark for me personally as a eye shadow, the product and brush it came with work perfectly as a eyeliner and i rather enjoyed using it as so.

What did you think of this months box?
