The Winter Edit 2016 of Marie Claire's 'The Parcel' arrived
at my doorstep this morning, and if you're curious as to what this edition
holds, then you've come to the right place!
A re-addition to the parcel is the MOR Rosa Noir Hand & Body milk in a small sample size. This
smells heavenly so I'm not complaining about having a spare back up.
The Body Shop Drops
of Youth Concentrate in a 7ml size is a new addition, and is said to be used to
encourage the skin's natural renewal process for healthier skin that glows.
I was surprised that this was included in the box - a Colgate Optic White High Impact White Toothpaste in a 21g size. I love this stuff as you can literally see results within days! But... is it really suitable for a beauty box?
A generous offering in this parcel is a full sized Nivea Sensitive Caring Micellar Water. I
generally use the Garnier one but I adore the Nivea eye makeup remover so this
ought to be fantastic!
Another great item is the John Frieda Frizz Ease Forever Smooth Anti-Frizz Primer! This is a
leave-in treatment which realigns the structure of each hair strand and boosting
its immunity to frizz!
A full sized Garnier
Wake Up Cream is in this parcel, which helps in increasing the look of radiant
skin.
A tinted lip balm by Burt's Bees is in this parcel, which is
convenient as I lost mine a couple months ago.
And finally, a bonus item is a sample of the Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector.
Luckily I received the light shade so I'll definitely be giving it a go.
Hope this helps you in deciding whether you want to pick up The Winter Edit 2016 of The Parcel by Marie Claire! Personally I wish they would increase the amount of higher end brands in these kits (as I believe that they used to include items from Benefit and so forth) as although Garnier and Nivea are great and affordable, it's not really what I desire from a more luxuriously branded beauty box. I've already signed up for the whole year but if the boxes keep continuing in this pattern I won't be renewing again.
