It's Down To Me

song of the day - Under My Thumb by The Rolling Stones
More than a few subscription boxes have come (and gone) over the past few years, but none have ever really caught my eye. I bought 2 Glossyboxes when they first came out, but they were kind of underwhelming, so I just gave up on them. 
A few months ago I heard about MyLittleBox, a French subscription box that has a few makeup and lifestyle bits in it. I was intrigued to say the least. After umming and ahhing for a few months I decided to subscribe last month, and I have not been let down. Yet. I didn't write a post on last months box because I didn't receive it until late in the month, but I did post photos of the products I received on Instagram.
This months theme is Superheros, and the illustrations that go with the theme are so cute. In this months box the 2 lifestyle items are a tee (there are at least 2 designs available), and some stickers. I'm not sure what I'll do with the stickers, but the tee is so cute. It looks a little big for me, but it'll do. I'm going to be feeling very Space Jam while wearing it.
The one thing that really drew me to this brand were the beauty bits that they include in the boxes. So far there isn't anything that I wouldn't love to try. This month there is a Caudalie hand cream, a Kerastase conditioner, and a MLB lip and cheek colour. Other people have got different items, I've seen a Garnier product floating about, and a MLB lip balm.
I never jumped on the Caudalie bandwagon that was pushing through the blogging world a few years ago, but everyone raves about the brand so hopefully this hand and nail cream will be good. I've had very dry hands this winter, so I'm not sure if this will be heavy duty enough for me, but we can only see.
The Kerastase conditioner is supposed to leave hair feeling silky soft, and looking luminous. I'm not a conditioner girl, because every one that I've used so far has made my hair feel and look greasy. Hopefully this will work better for me.
And finally is the MLB own brand beauty product. This month (for me anyway) it's a lip and cheek colour stick. It's a pretty coral colour, and I think I'll be more likely to use this on my cheeks rather than lips. The texture of it reminds me of the Topshop cream to powder blushes, and hopefully it'll be just as good as them.
Overall it's a pretty good box, and it's a great mid-month pick me up.
Have you subscribed to MLB? Or any other subscription box? Have you tried any of these products before?
