Naturisimo is a UK-based online retailer that focuses on bringing you the best in clean beauty and lifestyle products. Every month or so they release a new themed discovery box as a one-time purchase, and they sell out fast. For the holiday season, they released a line of limited-edition curated boxes. Each box is ready for gifting, and for every box purchased, £5 will be donated to the Trussell Trust, which supports food banks in the UK.
This is a review of the Naturisimo Vegan Edit Beauty Box, which is still available for purchase.
My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

Naturisimo The Vegan Edit Holiday Box Review
Here is the info sheet for the items included.
I love that our info sheet came on paper embedded with herb seeds that we can plant and grow.

Pai Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil, 10 ml - Retail Value $28
I love this oil- it has a gorgeous (and all-natural) orange hue, and there are only four ingredients: rosehip seed extract, rosehip fruit extract, vitamin E, and rosemary extract. Rosehip oil is a natural source of vitamin C and has antioxidants and fatty acids, so this is an incredibly nourishing facial oil and you only need a few drops. My preferred way of using this is by adding a few drops to my morning moisturizer (which is currently a rose one by Jurlique), and it adds a touch of luxury and a great richness to my morning routine that gives my sensitive, dry skin all-day hydration.

BYBI Beauty CBD Booster, 15 ml - Retail Value $15.42 (£12.00)
I have been wanting to try the BYBI boosters- I have seen this brand quite a bit on Instagram, and I am drawn in by both the attractive and colorful packaging as well as the simple ingredients list. This CBD booster has an oily texture, which makes sense considering the only two ingredients are hemp seed oil and 100 mg of cannabidiol (CBD). I have tried CBD skincare products before, and the ingredient works great at soothing redness and calming inflamed skin. I have been using it on my cheeks right before my nighttime moisturizer (usually I use oils as the last step, but I like layering this underneath in the hopes of achieving maximum results- for no reason other than it makes sense in my head). This definitely does a great job of soothing irritation, and while I use it to spot treat inflammation it would also mix well into a moisturizer if that is how you would prefer to use it.

REN Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic, 250 ml - Retail Value $35
I was so excited to see this full-size product from REN, a clean and cruelty-free skincare brand with a focus on environmental sustainability (they even pledged to become a zero-waste company by 2021). I have learned that my skin is much happier when I use mild exfoliation frequently compared to less-frequent but stronger products. This has lactic acid (for exfoliating), azelaic acid (to heal post-acne marks), and citrus oils. Unless your skin is sensitive to citrus oils (mine isn't), this gentle enough for daily use. Also, props to REN for this type of dispenser top- it is a small design choice, but it makes using the correct amount of product so much easier.

Ere Perez Avocado Waterproof Mascara in Black, 10 ml - Retail Value $25
Ere Perez is a natural makeup (and skincare!) brand from Australia focusing on holistic beauty. This mascara is made with mamey and avocado oils to nourish and strengthen your lashes, while also claiming to be waterproof and smudge-proof. While I don't intentionally set out to try waterproof mascaras by crying, I can attest that this did not live up to the waterproof claim. Interestingly enough, this also did not leave black streaks down my face, so I'm not exactly sure where it went. This definitely gave a more natural lash look than what I typically go for, so it's not the end of the world to me that this didn't end up being truly waterproof.
The Verdict: This box holiday set was another homerun for me. While I will end up passing the mascara along to a friend, both of the oils are already in use in my daily routine. and the REN tonic is one I will use to the very last drop. This single-purchase box is on the pricier end, but it is clear that Naturisimo took great care in both the curation and presentation of this box. This would be a great gift for the cruelty-free beauty lover in your life (or honestly just a beauty lover in general), and it comes perfect for gifting straight out of the outer packaging thanks to the gorgeous and sturdy box wrapped with a ribbon. Each purchase of one of these holiday boxes donates £5 to a local UK charity, the Trussell Trust, which is the icing on the cake for me. Value-wise, this has a total value of $103.42, which is about $30 over the cost of the box.
