Detox Market has done it again! They have a way of putting together some seriously impressive boxes of high end green beauty and August’s curation is no exception. I have been a fan of Vapour Beauty for years now, and this box has a few of my favourite things from the line so I put together a little snippet of what you will be getting when you sign up for this months box. The best part about Vapour? Their product are organic, eco certified and they improve your skin as you wear them thanks to ingredient decks filled with well sourced and skin perfecting properties. Vapour is a product line that is easy to apply, easy to wear, full of beautiful colour options and good for anyone who may have dehydrated skin as they’re all balm/liquid based. I’ll get to the THREE full sized products you can find in this box now, so scroll on down to see my thoughts and how I use these in my makeup routine.

Stratus Luminous Skin Perfecting Primer in “904”
Vapour’s Stratus Luminous Skin Perfecting Primer has been touted as being a “filter in a bottle” and for good reason. It has the most beautiful yet slight iridescent shimmer that sits underneath Makeup to make your skin look naturally glowing and flawless. It fills in fine lines and imperfections creating a perfect canvas for concealing and foundation application.
To apply, you simply rub the stick against the back of your hand to warm up and soften the product. Then swipe on and use your hands to really rub it all in. Not only does this make your skin attain unicorn status, but it has some skin loving ingredients that are organic and work to improve the skin as you wear it. No nasty breakouts or clogged pores here. This is what you can find in the stick:

Aura Multi-use Classic in “Courtesan”
I have been the biggest fan of these multi sticks from Vapour for so long now. I have a collection of their colours and am so excited to share that the Aura Multi Use Stick in “Courtesan” is the pigment of choice for this box. A classic rose tone that will flatter almost any skin type.
These multi sticks are exactly what they sound like, you can use them everywhere. A swipe on the cheeks to add a perfect flush of colour, a pop of colour on the lips (my favourite “trick” for hiding a tired Mama face, lip colour is everything), and a soft application on theirs creates the most beautiful and easy to apply/blend eye shadow option around.
As an added bonus, and staying true with vapours mission to create safe, high performance make up.. this perfects your skin as you wear it. Here is the full list of skin perfecting magic in this stick:

Organic Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil

I’ve swatched this product below so you can see how gorgeous this shade is. Three swipes on the left, one swipe on the right so you can see how the multi-stick builds pigment on the skin.
Velvet Lip gloss in “Crystal”
Last but not least, a new to me product and one that launched not too long ago, their Velvet Lip Gloss. These are decadence for your lips and have the most balmy, hydrating, satisfying yet non sticky finish. It is luxury for you lips but it doesn’t end there. This balm is coming in the iridescent and shimmery shade called “crystal”. Not only is it a lip balm, but the colour you receive makes it a multipurpose wonder. Tap a bit on the centre of your lids for a sheen finish to your eyes, on your cheek bones for the most subtle and dewy highlight, or over a lip colour to gloss up the finish of your pout.
Here’s the lip boosting ingredients:
INGREDIENTS
Organic Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil
Castor Isostearate Beeswax Succinate*
Organic Cera Alba (Beeswax)

Subscription boxes, in my humble opinion, are the perfect way to discover new brands and really get a feel for the different products they create. This box is sure to show you why Vapour Beauty is one of the most coveted and beloved makeup brands in the green beauty industry. If you’re looking for more ideas of high performing products that I love from their line I highly suggest checking out their Solar Translucent Bronzing sticks which are one of the easiest ways to contour, thanks to its easy application and the ability to blend the creamy product in easily. Top that off with their Halo Illuminator sticks and you’re ready for a night out on the town looking sun-kissed and glowing.
If you want to get yourself this box to discover some of their products, I highly suggest taking advantage of this great value. During the month of August (until this box runs out.. which I’m quite confident it will) you can grab all three of these products valued at $138.75 CAD for as low as $57.99 CAD/month ($39.95 USD).
