lookfantastic Beauty Box is a monthly beauty subscription from the UK. This box is currently $22 per month, but goes down to $16.50 per month on an annual plan and ships free to the US and Canada! In every box, you’ll get a hand-picked selection of must-have beauty fixes, which are wrapped in a beautifully presented box and delivered straight to your door. It will always include a minimum of six products.

There is a magazine by Look Fantastic in each box as well – this includes the product information, makeup tutorials, style highlights, and other features.

Some great items in this month’s box – I love how everything is laid out clearly.

Everything always shifts around during transit with this box and usually ends up covered in paper dust – easily wiped off, but still amusing.

This month’s box included two tools!

look fantastic Nail File (~$2) With silver glitter on one side and the look fantastic logo on the other, this is a very pretty jumbo nail file. I only use crystal files, but I know a friend who will love this tucked into her Christmas present.

Look Good Feel Better Angled Blending Brush ($9) LGFB donates a portion of their sales to fund confidence-boosting workshops for patients undergoing cancer treatments. This brush is very soft and I like the long handle.

The tip has a duo-fiber blend of hairs and is very soft!

L’Oreal Professionnel Mythic Oil ($4.20) This lightweight hair treatment contains avocado and grapeseed oil. It smells amazing! For my fellow fine-haired girls, a little goes a long way, one pump is all you need and then work from mid-length to ends.

Sebastian Volupt Spray ($7.65) Another hair product! I’ve received/tried Sebastian products before, and they work very well, but this isn’t something I would really reach for – I’m not a fan of any kind of gel. This one has great reviews, though – just apply to freshly washed hair and then blow dry to add volume.

Bloom and Blossom Revitalizing Leg and Foot Spray ($8.75) We received the facial mist by B&B in an earlier summer box, and I quite liked it. This leg and foot spray helps ease tired and swollen legs, ankles, and feet. You can even apply it over top of tights/nylons, which I find kind of neat.

Monu Recovery Balm ($15.75) This sample is half the size of the retail version, FYI. It’s a facial treatment used by professional therapists to calm and sooth irritated skin. It’s safe for all skin types, isn’t tested on animals, and has a focus on natural/plant ingredients.

ModelCo Blush ($11) This blush in Peach Bellini is half-size (the full size is 8g). I have a lot of peach blushes so this will be gifted, but it was great to see a makeup item in the box!

We were also sent November’s issue of Elle UK! It’s a thick, glossy magazine but it’s a small pocket size that would fit easily into a purse. The cover features Amy Adams, aka my hair goals. (I just dyed mine red again!)

This month’s box had a value of around $60 USD. This month’s box wasn’t my favorite. The items are all generously sized, and I was happy to see a makeup brush, but everything else was a bit boring after the stronger boxes I’ve previously received, and the overall value was a bit low. I’m looking forward to December based on the spoilers that have come out.
