Petit Vour Beauty Subscription Box: May Review

Petit Vour Beauty Subscription Box: May Review

Petit Vour’s box this month is full of summertime goodies!  For me personally, summertime means less about makeup and more about skincare.  In my older (and wiser) years I am more vigilant about sunscreen use and after sun care products.  Petit Vour has a lot of options for post sun care regimens and they made sure to include a little sampling this month. Read on to see what was included in May’s box.

Au Naturale Cosmetics Color Theory Creme Corrector (In Shade Peach)

So you have heard me say time and time again how I have always had dark under eye circles and have yet to find a product to completely lighten the area under my eye.  Well the products I have been using this last year have made the darkness less noticeable for sure, but now I have yet another trick to add up my sleeve.  The color correcting stick glides under my eye easily and instantly masks the dark circles, it’s amazing!  I only wish I would have known about this one many years ago!  A must have for anyone prone to under eye darkness (or newborn mamas wink wink)!

Cost: $24 for 4g

Lauren B. Beauty Reparative Cuticle Oil Treatment

I’ve never been one to put cuticle oil on routinely but since receiving this product I have been trying it out and it does make a world of a difference!  As a dentist, I wash my hands frequently and am very prone to dry cuticles + constant hang nails.  Add to that my habit of picking and I am constantly with unsightly nails and cuticles (embarrassing I know).  This product keeps the skin and cuticles soft so that hangnails, and thus my picking at them is much less!  After using this product any redness or irritation seems to be corrected by the next morning likely sue to its concentration of nutrient rich ingredients.  I’m finding that if I keep it next to my bed I am much more apt to remember to use it daily.  The mild yet calming rose fragrance is a nice little bonus too!

Cost: $22 for 10mL

EIR NYC Sunset Oil

Packed with soothing aloe and other skin hydrating ingredients, this oil is perfect to use after those long summer days out in the sun and elements!  This formula has a pleasant fragrance and my skin feels extremely silky smooth after using it and the fact that it is an oil means it does not sit heavy on the skin yet it still has the ability to soothe and quench dry skin just like a heavy body butter would!

Cost: $35 for 8 oz.

Zabana Essentials Banana Colloidal Oatmeal Face Mask + Scrub 

And just in time for dry summer skin, this mask helps to exfoliate dry skin cells while hydrating skin and even repairing skin damage due to its high concentration of Vitamin A.  The colloidal oatmeal component of the mask helps to soothe irritated skin making it perfect for use on sun kissed skin!  A total winner for a healthy complexion!

Cost: $25 for 2 fl oz.

Like I said before, this was but a small sampling of the awesome summer time products that Petit Vour has, you can check out more of their Sun Care Essentials here.  If you haven't yet already, be sure to hop over and read my latest post on non toxic sunscreen and after sun care products for a healthy and toxin free summer!
