carmine beauty box january

hey every one so today i have a quick review of the carmine January beauty box but i will be doing a in depth review on all the products on my youtube chanel http://www.youtube.com/user/chantellefashion  once i've used them. So the carmine box is a monthly subscription that costs £10 plus £2.75 postage and packaging so about £12. And it contains 5 luxury products with 2-3 full size products and the rest are sample size the inside of each box is well over £10. carmine is my first beauty box ever and this is my first month of receiving a box i thought I'd start the new year with a beauty box. i was torn between choosing the carmine box and the feel unique box I'm glad i chose this box because i saw that the January fell unique box was a major disappointment with no make up products and only skin care.

im happy that this months carmine box came with a mixture of makeup, skin and body products.
 this is how the box looks black with the carmine logo in the middle very sophisticated looking and the box feels strong so it can be re used for storage.
the inside of the box is neatly wrapped up in red ribbon and black tissue paper.












so the first product is a full size eyeko fat eye stick and this retails at an crazy £10 so already the box has paid for its self this would be my favourite. mine is in the colour satin taupe i really like how soft a creamy it is.








 next is another favourite and it is a full size product these lashes are handmade and very natural looking which i like. i like that carmine matched this up to me because i took carmines personality test and my result natural glam so im glad they gave me something to suit me because i've seen other reviews and the lashes that other people got looked a little more false so i like that they took our personalities into consideration. these lashes retail at £2.50 so not overly expensive something i would purchase again.

 and a skin oil it smells nice i hope it feels nice on the skin i haven't tries it yet so i can't really say how it works on the skin. but what i will say is the full size product costs £30 ha ha so unless it's holy water for the skin im not buying it for that price!
a simple face cream i do like my face creams so this should be really nice for me its sample size and the full size is 25 euros from Greece  it's supposed to moisturise and brighter the skin.




 and lastly the most disappointing of them all so boring bath salts im just not a fan of them :(

so overall i liked this gets 4/5  because i love 3 products out of 5. i didn't mind the face moisterizer and i hated the bath salts i had high hopes i was really excited because i saw 3 great boxes in a row i hope next months box is more exciting :) but over all a good box and lovely products.
