Are you looking for a monthly beauty subscription box but don't know which one to go for? Or are you looking for a beauty box in Austria specifically? Look no further. I'm trying out the Lookfantastic box for 6 months to give you an idea of the range of products that come in their box, tell you about the costs and total worth of the products each month. Let's get started.
General Information about the Lookfantastic Box
There are 4 different types of subscriptions that you can go for with this subscription box:
- Choose just specific one month for 20€
- Subscribe for 3 months in a row for 18€ each
- or for 6 months for 17€ each
- or for 12 months for 15,50€ each
If you live in Austria and decide to purchase just one month to try out, you do have to pay for shipping. The Lookfantastic box ships from Poland within Europe. If you decide to purchase a subscription of 3, 6 or 12 months, the shipping will be free from the second box to the rest, the shipping of the first box does have to be paid. If you keep on reading, I also have a Lookfantastic code for you.
The box comes with 6 different products each month with a worth of each box around 50-100€ depending on the products and the size of them. Each box usually ships within the first few days of the new month, but this time it got a bit delayed as I only just received my box middle of last week. Also, if you subscribe within a month, you will receive the first box right away and then get the second box at the beginning of the next month.
Each box comes with a monthly magazine called "Edit" which explains each product in detail, how to use it, the story behind the theme of the box etc. Sometimes you get a physical copy of the magazine, but they're currently changing it to a card with a QR code that you can scan and it takes you to the online version of the Edit magazine. Last month I received only the QR code while this month, I received the actual magazine again.
If you are interested in subscribing to Lookfantastic beauty box, they currently offer the first Lookfantastic beauty box for 10€ when you go for a 3, 6 or 12 month subscription when you purchase here and enter the code FIRSTBB10 at checkout.
Lookfantastic Beauty Box, December 2021
This month's theme is called "A Moment of Magic". The box comes in this beautiful burgundy red colour with gold details which are classic Christmas colours. They say, even with all the things to do and the stress the festive season brings with it, it still has magic in the air. Their Lookfantastic Beauty Box has and will always be that "little moment of magic" each month when the next box comes through your door - that's why this is the theme for the December box.
The first product inside is the Elemis Pro-Collagen Energising Marine Cleanser in a 30ml size. This is a travel size product worth around 10,90€ while the full-size product contains 150ml and retails for 54,45€ and can be purchased here.
It says lifting away dirt and debris, the cleanser washes away makeup and external aggressors from the skin's surface whilst cleansing the pores from deep within. It contains Padina Pavonica and a blend of mineral-rich Magnesium, Zinc & Copper.
The second product is the Eyeko Spotlight Highlighter Pencil in the shade "Pearl". This is a full-size product that contains 1.41g and retails for 18€ on Lookfantastic.
Formulated with Jojoba oil and synthetic beeswax, this highlighter can also be used in the inner corners of your eyes and is easy to blend with a supposed wear-time of eight hours.
Third in the box is the Starskin VIP "The Gold Mask Eye" which is a full-size product that retails for 6,95€ for a single packet and 24,95€ for a pack of 5 which can be purchased here.
These eye masks are formulated with 83% Rose of Jericho, known for its revitalising properties, as well as a 24k gold foil for boosting the firmness and elasticity of the delicate eye skin.
Next up in the box is the Glov Silk Eye Mask in this gorgeous champagne colour. Of course, this is a full-size product as well but cannot be bought separately. They currently have this beautiful Holiday Set for 16,95€ on Lookfantastic that contains the Silk Eye Mask, a cosmetic bag, 3 makeup remover pads and a laundry bag for the pads to be washed in.
The mask is made of 100% mulberry silk which is great for your skin as it absorbs less moisture than cotton which means your skin stays more hydrated. Silk also prevents your skin from "creasing" in your sleep which over time could possibly cause wrinkles.
Another product in this month's box (that I'm actually very excited about) is the Hollywood Browzer Hair Removal and Dermaplaning Tool in this gorgeous turquoise colour. Obviously, this is another full-size product that retails for 10,45€ on Lookfantastic.
Essentially, this is an eyebrow and peach fuzz shaver for girls. If you have never heard of "dermaplaning", it is "shaving" your face and removing the top layer of your skin which helps exfoliate by getting rid of the dead skin that builds up over time. You can also use these tools to clean up around your brows instead of having to plug every single eyebrow hair. I used to get my razors from Amazon or random drugstores but they're often not as sharp and require me to go over an area quite a few times for all the hairs to be removed completely. So I'm very excited to give this one a go.
Last but not least, the box comes with the Lottie London Ombre Blush in the shade "Haze". This again is full-size and retails for 6,78€ on Feelunique.
It says it has a lightweight formula that is buildable for even more coverage and supposedly lasts all day. The formula contains Talc and Mica.
Adding up all the prices, the December box comes to a total worth of around 65€ which is in the same price range as the other boxes were. Considering the cost of the beauty box is 17€, this is a very good deal.
