Best of Boudoir Prive Box Review

Best of Boudoir Prive Box (Dec 2011)

My Best of Boudoir Prive Boxes (two of them) arrived before Christmas. Since I have not seen any reviews about them other than the office one from Boudoir Prive, I thought I'd post one for the benefit of anyone who is still considering of purchasing one. Their link is here http://www.boudoirprive.co.uk/shop/the-best-of-boudoir-christmas-box.html
(FYI I paid for these boxes with my money and is not sponsored by anyone. All opinions are honest opinions from myself.) 

 My box includes the following:

1. STUDIOMAKEUP Rich Hydration Lipstick
2. STUDIOMAKEUP Black Liner Styler Pen
3. Zoya Nail Polish
4. Korres Wild Rose 24-Hour Face Moisturiser
5. Korres Citrus Body Milk
6. Tropic Skincare Body Smooth
7. Leonor Greyl Huile de Palme
8. Rose & Co Rose Petal Salve
9. Dead Sea Spa Magik Silky Smooth Body Lotion
10. Rahua Voluminous Shampoo & Conditioner
11. Colbert MD Nourish Eye Cream

Wait.... what about the four extras as promised in the official video and on their website...? I have not seen anyone blogging about what they are... so here you go!

4 Extras from Best of Boudoir Prive Box

The four extras I got are: 

1. Cargo Boogie Nights Eye Pencil (glittery black)
2. Mai Couture Blot & Bronze (1 piece of blotting paper)
3. Agent Provocateur Eau de Parfum 1.5ml
4. Jannat Eau de Parfum (approximately 2ml? Not indicated on the packaging)

I think this box is value for money - I paid £17 for each box (plus postage). I was going to buy the Rose Petal Salve anyway (£6 in Fortnam and Maison where I was doing my xmas shopping), and I can easily spend £11 for the rest. I love the eyeliner and lipstick - the lipstick is a bit too red for what i normally wear but the creamy texture means that I can now use it as a blusher to create that health glow after exercise (in my case, after my hot yoga class!). The little extras are also nice - the glittery eye pencil will be beauty for parties. The two perfumes smell quite good too - I don't normally wear perfume but little samples are always nice as there is no need to worry about accumulating 30ml bottles on my shelves! Buying two of these Best of BP boxes means that I now have back-up for everything (I already got the previous BP boxes - so I have 3 lots of some of the BP items now!)

As an aside, Boudoir Prive is now Jolie Box UK. Their December Box (first ever Jolie Box) is absolutely amazing. In a way it was sad that Boudoir Prive has changed (I love the old packaging more), but hopefully the new French HQ will be able to give more amazing boxes! p.s. I got an email from Jolie Box saying there won't be a January box for various reasons. So I'll have to wait for February for my next box.....

December was a crazy month in terms of my beauty boxes... I ordered Carmine (review to follow), Boudoir Prive (Dec box review to follow), two of the Best of Boudoir Prive boxes, and Feel Unique for January.... Beauty and fashion here we go. I hope you all have a happy 2012, one that is filled with joy and quality time with your friends and family. Until the next one. xxx
