YouBeauty Discovery Box February 2014

This is my YouBeauty box from February 2014...

The theme of this month's box is "Red Carpet Glamour".

As usual, this box comes with two items that I chose myself from the YouBeauty shortlist, plus two little extras.

Here is the full February shortlist:

• Stila - Lipglaze (FULL SIZE)

• Mavala - Nail polish in Madrid, 5ml  (FULL SIZE)
• Mavala - Nail polish in Sapporo, 5ml (FULL SIZE)

• Teeez Cosmetics - Desert Metals Mascara (FULL SIZE)
• Teeez Cosmetics - Mysterious Crystal Eyeliner, 6 colours available (FULL SIZE)

• The Vintage Cosmetic Company - Eyeshadow Brush (FULL SIZE)

• Helenere - Black Pearl Precious Lifting Serum, 5ml (SAMPLE)

• GLAMGLOW - YouthMud Tinglexfoliate Treatment, 15g (SAMPLE)
• Jurlique - Calendula Redness Rescue Soothing Moisturising Cream, 5ml (SAMPLE)
• Pixi - Flawless & Poreless Primer, 12ml (SAMPLE)

Out of the ten items on the list, six of them were full-sized :)

This month I chose two items from the same company, Teeez Cosmetics. This was partly because they were both full-sized and partly because I love make-up items!

Teeez Cosmetics is a relatively unknown company in the UK, so their inclusion in the YouBeauty shortlist caught my eye. Their packaging caught my eye, it's just beautiful!

They hail from The Netherlands and their range is fun and funky.

Two chosen items

Teeez Mysterious Crystal Eyeliner

Full-sized pencil eyeliner. The shade I received is Onyx Black, which is black with small blue glitter particles in it:

There were six shades available and I'm really happy I got this one!

No need for sharpening as this is a retractable pencil - just twist and use. There is a sponge underneath a cap at the other end of the pencil which you can use for blending your eyeliner. After 45 seconds the eyeliner will be dry and smudge-proof so you have to blend quickly. The texture is lovely and creamt and the colour is right up my street.

RRP £13.95

Teeez Desert Metals Mascara

Full sized mascara. The shade is 'Midnight Sky' which is a metallic looking dark grey/black. Smudge and crumble-proof. Contains silk proteins to nourish the lashes.

RRP £17.95

Extras

Charles Worthington Instant Amplifying Volume Treatment

A 2ml sachet of product plus a £2 off voucher for use as part-payment towards any Charles Worthington products at Boots.

RRP £14.99 for 200ml

Beyond Dark 'Moments of Pleasure' 35g

A bag of tiny dark chocolate orange buttons. They were delicious! I'm not usually a fan of dark chocolate, but if it's flavoured I quite enjoy it.

RRP £1.00 for 35g

Verdict

Another fabulous YouBeauty box. This one was worth, including the extras and voucher, approximately £35. It was an absolute steal at £6.95 :)
