Holy Moly that’s insane. I can get a year subscription to Popsugar or whatever.

Second extremely high imported box today. I don’t understand the push for brands we’ve likely all tried before ( I have 3 of those Foreos still in the package).
There’s no miracle skin care unless a person has a condition which needs treatment by a dermatologist.
Most of these items are water, scent, and a bit of fruit acids ( AHA) and some hyaluronic acid.
If you want to help your skin, pH test every product you use and make sure it’s neutral pH for skin- 5,5 to 6.0.
Take out anything with alcohol or irritants, and use mild cleanser and a mild moisturizer. No 7-12 step skin ritual helps. I bought enough K Beauty to fill two rooms with the boxes, and while it was fun, it was not life changing.
Drinking plenty of fluids and making shakes with best quality animal collagen helps more than applying topical preparations in an attempt to hydrate and repair ageing skin. Internal collagen ( that which is consumed not patted on) will repair ageing or damaged skin over time with results that last.

Foreo Luna mini 2 is $139 RV but can be found cheaper most places. The Dennis Grossman two jars RV for $88, the Lanolips is $20, the LIXIRSKIN Vitamin C Paste is $45, the sun drops are a big ticket item at $145, and the NARS Laguna Liquid Bronze is $40.
Its $477 worth of stuff so you’re getting about a 40% discount. If every item is a must have then go for it but if not grab what you want at full price with free gifts and samples that most sites provide. At least that’s what I would do.

Good advice. It’s definitely not worth it to me.

I would be a lot more tempted if it was a different Sturm product; the anti aging serum or even the glow drops. The sun drops aren’t really worth it (to me!) and I think they comprise a significant portion of the box’s value.

Oooohhhhh, very tempting. I’m going to wait one day and if I’m still thinking about it, I’ll pull the trigger.
Girls, give me you feedback! Is it a good buy? Luna, thoughts???

I’m wondering… is this already sold out? It looks like it’s not letting me add it to the cart. This has actually been out for a couple of days already, but I didn’t think it’d sell out this fast due its price. (I think this may be the most expensive Cult Beauty Box they’ve had)
Anyhow, I don’t plan on getting it due to its price and because the only thing that really appeals to me is the Lixirskin Vitamin C Paste…. I’d gift the glow drops, liquid bronzer, and foreo. The Lanolips seems nice, but not enough to entice me to get the box, and while I’d use the Dr. Dennis Gross pads, I already have a ton of those that I need to use up. But like another commenter said, I think it’s a great box if you’re excited about the contents, and what you would keep makes it worth it to you. 🙂
Also, don’t forget that Cult Beauty includes the VAT, so this box will actually “only” be £187.50/$245. Plus, I read that code YOU15 works (I think to take off an additional 15%), so it could make the box roughly £159/$208 after the discount and removal of VAT. I was going to test if the code works before commenting here, but I wasn’t able to add this to my cart to find out.
Oh!!!! But, assuming this isn’t sold out, and I’m just being dense on how to get it to add to my cart, you may want to wait until next week, as I think that’s when Cult Beauty will be offering their gwp goody bag! Last year, they offered it on 2/27. If you’re on the fence about this box, it might be worth it to wait. 🙂

Looks like you need to choose which Dennis Gross product you want in order to add this to your cart, so it doesn’t seem like it’s sold out yet. Not trying to enable though LOL. 😉
“To add to bag, simply select the Dr. Dennis Gross skincare product you wish to receive, choosing from ‘Alpha Beta Peel Extra Strength Formula’ or ‘Universal Daily Peel’, both contain two jars, 30 treatments – full size.”

Thanks Luna! I’ll check tomorrow. I’m waning now. Most likely not going to go for it. Your feedback is always helpful!

I just tried the promo code YOU15 and got a message saying it wouldn’t work for orders containing the cult beauty box. Unfortunately.

Luna,
It’s not sold, they did have it where you had to pick the DG strength before now it automatically adds the original if you want the stronger you have to change it.
I just started new prescription skincare so I’m not ordering it but if it weren’t for that I would. SpaceNK still has the last CH clean beauty box too.

You15 does not work 🙁

Great products, but out of my subscription budget allowance. I’d have to cancel all of my subs for it lol. Nope, not gonna happen 😂

way too much! Foreo we got in FFF.
Thanks to Boxycharm I have stockpile of bronzers.
Lana cream is way out of place in this box.
Sun drops can be easily substitute with less expensive sunscreen.
Will wait for LF easter box.
