Beauty Heroes Beauty Discovery January 2022 Review

Signed up for this product &a second box a gift for a friend. Decided to try this new highly talked about cream w great wholesome ingredients including vitamin D. THE PACKAGE arrived quickly and upon opening the package out came wrapped box w
a gorgeous hand made black jar that was cold to the touch. The jar was such a beautiful work of art. The cream had an absolutely wonderful fragrance and went on my face really smoothly & glided on. Was really delighted with the product. I contacted customer service to ask some questions & was amazed at how quickly they responded to answer my questions. Wonderful sub box company in both product and customer service. I’m sold.

Received my box and I’m sad. 🙁 The cream had oozed out the corner of the jar and was all brown and caked on the rim. I havent pulled up the seal to see if the inside cream is brown too but I’m hesitant to use it now since it looked the way it did.
Also, is there supposed to be a ring “seal” like in the pictures above? Cause I don’t have that on my jar- maybe thats why it leaked all over?
I guess i shouldnt even bother to contact them since they arent doing anything sadly.
I’ve been subbed for a few years and usually I find at least one product that I like in each Discovery but this was an absolute complete waste of money.

When my jar arrived, the foil inner seal hadn’t been lined up correctly at the factory, so the product had leaked into the box. I emailed customer service, with pictures, and they told me that the vessel was art and I couldn’t expect to receive a factory sealed product in art. I would never use a cream on my face that arrived with a damaged seal– it could have any number of contaminants that make it unsafe for use. It’s my first month and I am gutted. Whatever discount there is, I still spent $50 on something unusable and was told to appreciate it.

Wow – what a great way to start the year with Beauty Heroes. I just received mine and it is so incredible. Beauty Heroes value is always so high, and I love that they focus on fewer products of higher quality. That just really works for me. I would never have discovered this otherwise. I received last year’ Terra – and I thought it was special then. And this is totally different. The scent is gorgeous and the vessel is amazing. Very fun way to start the year!

I love Ayuna’s Cream II and the soap. I am really curious about this one. I am a bit confused about how to use it. Is it a serum or a cream?

Wow. I got this today. I cannot believe it’s not sold out! This moisturizer is amazing! It sinks into my skin beautifully. I’m only 31, so I don’t have any skin concerns. But it applies so good, doesn’t pill, feels so refreshing, smells so light. I would buy a few if I could, but I would love everyone to experience this.

Thank you again for sharing your experience with our January Discovery. The annual limited edition release of Ayuna’s latest product innovation is designed to be truly special and the ceramic vessel is designed to be part of that presentation – a pedestal to debut their latest and greatest. So happy to hear you’ve enjoyed Terra Viva thus far and look forward to hearing your long term experience! -The Beauty Heroes Team

What an expensive cream. They have to be joking.

I’m going to say it: I’m not excited. My experiences with Ayuna have been largely negative. From their body cream to Velo, to last year’s Terra cream, every single product I’ve tried has been partially unusable because of poor packaging. Last year, the Terra cream itself pilled quite badly and the fragrance was overwhelmingly “rich old lady”. A blog I follow says the scent is “the age you have to be to afford the product” lol.

I am excited about the new fragrance with this one, and it seems they attempted to address the packaging issue? But I’m still just… meh.

We all get pretty loud and sassy about the inflated retail value of the items in our boxes, and yes, this cream costs $455 outside of the box. But BH is roughly a $60 box. How is Ayuna not losing significant profit here, if the cream really is $455? When the product highlighted this month is 1) limited edition and 2) has an extremely high price point, how will this discovery convert box subscribers into Ayuna customers? It feels sketchy and weird and does not endear the Ayuna brand to me at all.

All that said, I’m an annual subscriber so I’m getting this one and I’m going to give it an open-minded try. I’d love to be back on here in a few days, with a completely different take.

I got the last one Ayuna they had. It was good to try. I still have it and use it periodically. This one I am skipping

Very nice review! Honestly, I’m happy I didn’t subscribe and I was very close to when we received the emails about the ‘bang’ discovery. Additionally, for EU customers, we have to pay an additional ~50$ for the shipping and customs, resulting in more than 100$/box. Only boxwalla has changed the shipping company to help with the extra costs.

Last yr’s Ayuna Terra cream did not go well with any of my skincare products, it pilled. So I ended up using it as body cream, an expensive body cream, indeed! I am debating whether I should get this.

This is great! I used last year’s Ayuna cream as a mask, also mixed with a peeling/exfoliator cream, which would be too harsh for my skin otherwise. The jars are so beautiful. I am looking forward to receiving the new Ayuna!

I ended up using last year as a hand cream- and man was it an AMAZING hand cream! That being said, I am not especially excited about this box. I found the inability to seal a $400+ cream to be ridiculous.

I sure do wish these boxes would include more eye products. I have so much product that I have to give it away, but I still have to buy my eye products! (Looking at you BH, Boxwalla and See New!) 👁 😊

I’m so excited to receive this as I missed out on it the last time. I received their face oil in another box and am addicted to it. It’s the best oil I’ve ever used. It goes on and sinks in beautifully. I’ve repurchased it twice even though the sticker shock makes it difficult to afford. Unlike a lot of oils, theirs pairs well with most skincare and doesn’t cause pilling. I only wish their products were more affordable.

I cannot wait to get this! I was a subscriber last year when BH included Ayuna. I resubscribed again once I received their emails about this next box. While I love Ayuna, last year’s cream was too heavy for my combo skin (my husband enjoyed it, however). I think this one will be much better for my skin.
