Although I have posted about different beauty boxes several times and done this comparative video, I have never posted about the Feel Unique box. This is the first box I have received by them, and it is the only box so far that I pay for. I decided to sign up since I love their online store and the brands they carry, and I was consistently impressed with the contents of their boxes from reading other blogs. They seem to have a steady quality and whilst they don't give away full size products, I think this keeps the subscribers happy in the long run because people don't rave or completely trash the box every month. Its good, and its samples, and the brands are good. That's kind of what I expect from a box anyway. Its not to say I wouldn't pay for any of the other boxes, I would, but I do receive them as PR samples so this is the one I opted to give my hard earned cash to so I could try it out.
This box is the New Year box and contains mostly skincare (which I love) personally I need more makeup like I need a chocolate fireguard and a hole in the head, I have way to much already. Unless we are talking concealers and foundations which are never going to be in a sample box, I'd rather have skincare and hair products any day. This box contains two Dead Sea Spa Magik salt brushing exfoliators, a generously sized cleanser from thisworks (which smells lovely, very herbal and spa like), a Caudalie body moisturiser, a Phyto conditioning treatment, a Lierac moisturiser (again, generously sized) and a bonus sachet sample of a Lierac serum.
If you shop at Feel Unique a lot and like the brands they carry, this box will be right up your street, you might like some months more than others but in general from what I have seen, its very consistent. I also love the sleek black and hot pink box and the fact that you could stack them all together after a few months and use them as drawer units to store things. This isn't a box that shouts from the rooftops or is flashy, but it does deliver. If you're interested in signing up you can do so here - priced at £9.95 (delivery included) I'm certainly happy.

Great review, I get glossy box and love it atm, i can't justify buying more than 1 box a month but if I changed from glossy box then it would def be for a feel unique one! x
Love the box haha

I haven't received my box yet, the only thing I'm a bit peeved about is that there is another cleanser. There has been one in the last 3 I think. I'm sure it will be lovely tho!
Great review; this month's Box was my first one too!
Very happy with the products, especially the Leirac face cream which I love!

Great review! I love how the feel unique box is a little drawer, it's a much better design for reusing the boxes :)

I completely agree with your review on the feelunique box. It isn't trying to be flashy, or over the top, but they are still providing great products for a reasonable price. I think that they will continue to provide this quality of box as they haven't gone over the top to 'wow' us, what you see is what you get :-)
I have really sensitive skin and I loved the 'thisworks' face product, I will continue to use the tester but will probably purchase the full size with the 10% off. I wasn't that keen on the smell of the body lotion, it reminded me of a lynx product haha so I think I will be giving that away, but that's down to personal preference rather than it being a bad product!
Have you used the salt scrub yet? It is lush!!!
Thanks for your review, I was hoping someone would write about it so I could see if others thought the same as me :-)

I really like the look of this box and like you I actually think it's great to receive skincare and haircare samples in a beauty box, as they're the kind of products I want to try out before committing to a full size. I can see it getting a trashing from other people for not including any make-up though.

Definitely agree with Honey.
It is a good box, but there's a cleanser in the box every month. I'm quite happy with my skincare routine, I don't mind trying new things, but there's not enough room in my routine for new cleansers every month.
i have never tried this beauty box but i like the look of it and the packaging xx

This is the first I have heard about the Feel Unique box and out of the products, I would really like to know how you get on with the Phyto conditioning treatment! Makes a change from all the make-up based boxes like you say.

i dont like the smell of the body lotion, do you, very mens shaving product smell to me.x
They have given away full sized products before, Gem. I've blogged about them before if you fancy a look. xx
^^ This box looks really good.
I ordered a Jolie Box following your youtube review because I liked the idea of the niche products, but this one might have to be the next one I order, because I am addicted to skincare at the moment.

Looks like a great box and I love that delivery is included in the price. Soo tempted to subscribe as I love Feel Unique! :) I've just started my own blog and have just written my first post, so would love it if you had chance to take a look. All advice welcome :)

I have really mixed thoughts on this box, which I also got. Firstly, one of the selling points of this box was that they claimed to send you products tailored to your needs etc. I was disappointed that the most generous size was an anti ageing cream which at 23 is not something I am interested in. Secondly, my phyto hair conditioner had a hole at the top with very little product in. My thoughts were that someone who was packing the box would have seen this hole and still put it in the box. I contacted feel unique and got no response for a while. In the email I did say I didn't want a replacement but still expected an apology etc. I tweeted them and only then did they respond and sent me out another, they said they didn't feel the need to respond because I said I didn't want another one.I am still subscribed and look forward to the next box x p.s sorry for the long rant! x
Great review! I'm definitely a glossybox fan I must say even though I do order a lot from feel unique, I feel the boxes aren't that enticing enough......but maybe I shall succumb to subscribing!
Please check out my new blog!
I'm in Monaco :)
