Pearlesque Box Review | February 2018

pr samples

Time for another new (to me) brand discovery from Pearlesque Box! I’ve been on the vitamin C train recently with all the sun exposure I’ve had this past year, so I was beyond happy to see that the products included this month were both vitamin C based, from the brand Luxe Botanics.

First things first: what is the Pearlesque Box? It’s a green beauty subscription box that sends 2-3 full and/or travel-sized clean skincare products from one specific brand each month. This month’s featured brand, Luxe Botanics, creates products based around three multitasking ingredients: marula nut oil, camu camu berry extract and kigelia africana fruit extract.

Both of the products in this month’s Pearlesque Box are packed full of camu camu berry extract, which is more full of vitamin C than an acai berry. It helps to brighten and even out your skin tone as well as repair damage due to environmental stress. It’s an especially good ingredient for those with dull or sun damaged skin (hello, me!).

The Luxe Botanics Brightening Mist ($32) is packed full of vitamin C, sodium hyaluronate, damascus rose water and other soothing botanical antioxidants. It’s super refreshing and makes my skin feel so hydrated! You only need a couple spritzes of this stuff to leave your skin feeling fresh. This has a gorgeous rose scent to it and I can’t get enough!

I have a feeling that I’m going to love the Luxe Botanics Camu Brightening Serum ($85). I’ve only used it a couple times thus far, but I really enjoy the consistency and like that leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth. Over time, this serum is meant to target dull and sun damaged skin with a potent hit of vitamin C, as well as CoQ10, ferulic acid and gentle tea extracts to fight free radicals and sodium hyaluronate and and squalane to plump up any fine lines and help to reinforce your skin’s natural barrier. I’m very excited to see how this works over the long term!

This month’s Pearlesque Box is worth $117, but will only run you $39.95 a month- heck yes! This box is available until February 4th, so grab yours now (and if you’re seeing this too late, that’s totally cool because this box doesn’t cease to impress me month after month, so I’m sure the next box will be just as great)!
