BLACK HEAD KILLER BOX* - REVIEW 

£89.90

I love Style Lux. It is a fantastic website from Denmark. They sell a variety of things such as beautiful face products, hair extensions and beauty accessories. 

This gift pack is a fantastic new product which has just been released. The products are perfect for all kinds of skin types, It contains the following ;

- Facial Cleanser

- Peel of mask

-Facial Moisturiser 

Packaging 

4/5

It might sound sad but I love the feel of the packaging, very luxurious and good to hold, which is not strange at all, must be just me.. Both the cleanser and the moisturiser are a good size at 100ml each. Makes it a perfect size to have on the dressing table or in the toiletries bag for travelling. 

The peel off mask is 10ml, but seriously you don't even need that much. In one application I must use about half the sachet. 

When it comes to design, they have stuck with their trademark look of the black head killer range,  Which is the cream, red and blue colour scheme.

All three items comes very well presented in a attractive felt box with a window display. 

Have to say, I think they got it right with the packaging, As something like this is appealing to not just me but different age groups and it would make a lovely gift for christmas. 

HOW TO USE THE SET

The best way I could show you is with a face full of make up, admittedly is it late and I have been at work all day but no time like the present! 

 FACIAL CLEANSER

I do suffer from serious panda eyes!

'The facial cleanser prepares your skin for the BLACKHEAD KILLER treatment. It opens the pores and simplifies the removal of black heads, excessive fats and other dirt when undergoing the mask treatment'

This product has the strangest consistency of any cleansers I have tried, It comes out looking like shampoo. It is a liquidly texture which is quite shiny. The product is easy to apply and foams up with a little amount of water, and gets off the thickest of makeup.  

This product has a soapy smell that is very faint, So it isn't over powering when you apply it near the nose. It washes off quite easy too. I am really surprised and how this leaves the skin So soft, I felt like there was so need to apply the mask.

Perks of the product

- Smell, Its so lovely!

- How soft it makes the skin, baby soft!

- Good size product

- Gets off day long make up

Bad bits of the product 

- consistency of the cleanser

To buy this separately from the gift pack it is £22.95. 

PEEL OFF MASK 

'Your skin is now ready for the original BLACKHEAD killer facial mask, Apply the cream to your face -Allow ample time for the mask to dry,peel off and taa darr! '

So once you have dried your face after using the facial cleanser you want to start applying the mask, Leaving delicate areas out such as the mouth area,and eyes. Apply a thin layer of the product on the face or on the areas you want to have more of a effect on and leave to dry for 15 minutes or so. This product I have reviewed before, Hurts to peel off but once it is off it is amazing!!! Your skin is left so so so soft, My sister tried this too and agreed. So overall I think this is one to try, I would recommend it to a friend. 

Price wise its about £15.00 for five masks, and if you do it once every three weeks or so will last you about four months. 


If you don't like to peel off the mask you can simply wash off with a flannel, easy to do.

Perks of the product 

- Decent amount of product

- Skin does feel soft and good improvement round the nose area

- Easy to open sachet

Bad bits of the product 

- Quite difficult to peel off if you apply too much product

- Can be messy (get wipes)

- Looks like tar, not a nice colour

FACE MOISTURISER

'Once you have used the PEEL OFF MASK we recommend that you use a delightful and soothing facial moisturiser'

Such a soothing moisturiser and very cooling to the skin after you have just used the mask. It absorbed into the skin well after about a minute or so. It has yet again a very subtle smell to it, which smells like soap I love that, I find soap is so comforting especially in the winter.

 To buy this separately it is £22.95, I maybe wouldn't purchase  this product, but I would purchase the cleanser. 

It has a milky texture to it which is easy to apply on the face. This product seems like it would last you months and months.

Perks of the product 

- Absorbes into the skin quick

- You only need a tiny bit, It goes a long way

- The smell

Bad points of it 

-The product itself is quite runny so does leave the lid off!

OVERALL

This product is perfect for people with problematic skin, and skin prone to spot break out. It is well presented and can easily make a lovely gift for someone. Easy to follow instructions that are written clearly and perfect for women 16+ and possibly men.

BEAUTY GOODIES

L'Occitane Beauty Goodies

Who's a busy Lauren! Been so busy this last week with starting a new job and everything. Which let me tell you is scary and exciting all at the same time. So today was pay day and I got a couple little goodies from work, Including the most amazing hand cream and a new product for nail and cuticle called cuticle cream which is just amazing!!

It was also my second day at work on thursday, so we had a management meeting. It was so nice to meet all the other girls and to have Rosê wine and percy pigs which was a lovely treat! I got given a lovely treat bag too as a welcome to the team which was super lovely! Full of products.We headed off to Copa afterwards for some Prosecco (yum) then to Bills in Cheltenham for food. Bills is a chain restaurant but if you haven't been it is a must! They sat us at this beautiful round table with the most incredible chandelier, which would make a lovely restaurant for a date..If only.

So the Goodies I brought 

Shea Butter Hand Cream 

This is my favourite product out the lot, It is mainly for dry and sensitive skin but can be used on every skin type. I put this on throughout the day to keep my hands felling and smelling gorgeous. This doesn't leave you broke either. A huge tube like this is only £19.00 and the travel size is £8.00, Works out better if you buy the big one! 5/5

Shea Butter Cuticle Cream 

This is a new product to me and for £12.00 its a little miracle worker. Whilst I was full time Hairdressing my nails never grew! (so sad) So I needed up with acrylics and Gels over the top. Now this is a more natural approach and hopefully I will start to have stronger nails!

4/5 

And the few goodies from work..

Almond Milk, this cream is perfect for after baths in the evening. Leaves the skin so smooth and soft and it has a lovely smell to it. This is meant to tighten and firm the skin back up so perfect for the cellulite around the bum! 

Brightening water. this is perfect for after cleansing. All a toner does is simply restore the normal Ph balance in the skin therefore makes the skin prepared for moisturiser and then makeup. It has daisy extract in so it smells very fresh, Something I would use in the morning and if you apply on the cotton wool it seems to get any cleanser or excess makeup of the skin. 

Repair shampoo and conditioner, This is for very dry and damaged hair it is so nourishing, and full of oils that work deep in the cuticle to repair the hair inside out. 

These little bits I did end up giving to Mum, so I cant really give a review! But I would love to read one if you have done a review!

My top THREE cleansers

My top three facial cleansers 

Now everyones skin is different, for starters you could have oily, dry, spot prone or sensitive, the list goes on and on. 

Mine is super sensitive. My mum always said I had a english rose complexion. Very lucky naturally rosy cheeks with freckles and very clear skin. However in the summer it does get dry because of the heat around the t-zone area on my face. Which could be a problem, I cant go putting anything oily on it. 

So I have picked three products that really suit my skin and work well to give me my glowing complexion. 

1. Clinique Rinse-off foaming cleanser £17.00 johnlewis.com

Packaging and size    - Size is very handy which makes it good for travelling. The packaging itself is very soft, With a click open lid. (No spills) 8/10

Redness  Hardly any with this product 1/10

Softness  9/10 

Price     5/10 Arg! Please be cheaper

This comes out in a white cream base, Mix in with warm water turns into a lovely soapy texture. A small bit goes a long way, So I guess in that aspect it is worth the money. This one doesn't have any smell to it, So perfect to use when you are taking off all your makeup in the evenings before bed. 

9/10 

2.  Sothys delicious scrub  

Packaging and size    -Again perfect for travelling. The edges however are really sharp. 

Redness  5/10 expected with a scrub really

Softness  10/10

Price     To get the full size it is £45.00 which for a small tub is very pricey. 

Smell  This contains ginger and nutmeg so it is a very christmassy smell, which I love. 

So it comes out in an orangery beady gel form, It is a little painful to put on your face due to the hard little beads but you know with a full face of make up, this bad boy will get all of it off. After rinsing off, the face is soft straight away which is a bonus.

10/10

3.Dermalogica Clean Start cleanser 

Packaging and size   This is the smallest of the three, Therefore fits practically any where.  6/10

Redness  1/10 No redness!

Softness  10/10

Price     This was a *Freebie! But worth every penny if I was to buy it! 10/10

Smell   Very pretty smell, cant quite explain what it is..  9/10

I had been a huge fan of Dermalogica for about seven years since I worked in a salon in norwich, And I love, Love LOVEEE the stuff. Even better when the item is free (hehe) We all think that. But seriously I have forked out quite a bit for their products. This product in particular I would recommend to use in the morning, It comes out in a clear, smooth gel.This is the most replenishing cleanser as it doubles as a moisturiser. Perfect for the summer months when the sun dries out your skin!!

10/10

I recommend you try all these, Tell me what you think!
