Beauty Box 5

One of the best parts of working at BB5? Finding new obsessions to share with you, BB5 Babes!

In our newest feature, Brand Crush, we’re picking major finds that have caught our eyes, lips and skin by surprise and that we can’t get enough of!

Real talk: exfoliation is so important, but can sting sometimes! We know we need to take away dead skin cells and love the feeling of super soft skin, but sometimes the ingredients in traditional exfoliants are harsh and can irritate our skin even worse, and that’s where we’re drawing hearts on our notebooks for Perk Naturals! Perk is a new Canadian skincare line that packages 100% natural ingredients to “make you fall in love with your skin again”- which we can testify, is a huge deal and very true.

Each luxe vegan scrub Perk makes starts with safe ingredients like raw sugar, sea salt, and coffee grounds mixed with hydrating citrus and coconut oils- and seriously: one of the hardest parts of using them is not wanting to eat the products themselves! Our whole team sampled the Citrus Mistress (which smelled like an orange macaron!), Lavender & Lemon (full of real lavender buds to fill your tub and senses with an intoxicating aroma) and Coffee First (which will make you crave a latte, like, STAT) and couldn’t stop touching our perk’d up skin afterwards! 

We also indulged in their Pucker Up Lip Scrub by mixing the sugary granules with a little water, scrubbing our lips gently and rinsing- no more chapped winter lips in sight!

The final straw for winning our affection? All the scrubs are packaged in pouches and tins so adorable that you might even leave them sitting out and all are resealable so you can get your perk on for a long time!

So go forth and exfoliate safely and deliciously, you all-natural babes, you, and keep up with all the Perk Naturals goodness on Facebook and their uber-cute Instagram, too!

And psst! Here’s the fun part: want to see Perk in our boxes in the future? Let us know what you think in the comments below, and tell us what brands we should be crushing on next!
