YBD; MAY EDITION

The You Beauty Discovery box is available here. Every month, you pick two products out of a 'short list' to try and they send you three surprise products too! I found out about this box on her blog and loved the cheapness and range! It is perfect for those wanting to try something new.

So, in my first box, I decided to give the 'Oriflame Tender Protecting Balm' a go. This retails at £7.95 and their website so already covers the price of the box. It is basically a posh vaseline if you like. The packaging is a lot lot nicer and easier to get into due to it being a screw top lid rather than something you have to pull and tug at. Personally, I despise vaseline. This, however, I love. It is not as greasy as vaseline, and as well as that I have found it doubles up as an on-the-go moisturiser for my extra dry spots.

Will I be purchasing it? Yes

My next chosen product was the 'Glam Glow Supermud Clearing Treatment'. This retails at a whopping £45 (for full size version) from Selfridges and has always been on my desired list. Personally, I do not have bad skin, it is just porey. Imagine Regina George 'my pores are huge'.. Anyway.. Obviously at the price I have never wanted to try it in fear of it upsetting my skin or not making a difference. Me and my sister applied a thin layer of this today and instantly noticed a difference. Wow. Once it sets on the skin, you begin to see you pores get darker, it is weird man! Then, once it is removed your skin is left feeling amazing - and looking a lot better too!

Will I be purchasing it? Maybe as a gift for my birthday due to price

For my two sample products I received the Charles Worthington Salon How Leave-in Conditioner. I have never tried a leave-in conditioner, it has never been something that has appealed to me. When I have tried this I may have a change of heart, who knows. I also received the Divine Legs Fake tanner. I'm no longer a big fake tan gal, my days of being orange are well and truly over, however, due to this glorious whether I may have to give this a whirl - and hope for the best. For my fifth product they chucked in some granola. I'm not a huge fan of the stuff - but food is good.
