Lust Have it January 2016 reveal

Lust have it January once again came up with the goods in value. 

Highlights- I was really happy with the hikari blush & Unani micellular water. 

Lowlights- again Lust have it don't put any thought into matching so the lip colour and the blush cannot be worn together. 

Skin Yoga- these are different to anything I've ever used before- look forward to test driving these products! 

Another great subscription box from Lust have it! 

Lust Have It December 2016 Reveal

Yet again LHI doesn't disappoint. 

This Months bag is packed with full sized products and deluxe size wipes. This bag  is roughly worth $95 (amazing for $19.95) 

My top picks are the Naobay scrub & the wipes- I really love this brand of wipes & am always excited to try the different types! (Fuss free naturals)

I've got the Chella pencil already from Bellabox- not a problem and still awesome but it's a shame some companies put their products in all the different beauty boxes consecutively leading to people who have more than one subby doubling up or wasting good product. 

The hand cream smells amazingly good! 

The be a bombshell eyeshadow is my lowlight this month- purely based on colour- nevertheless sans purple it could make a decent smokey eye palate. 

Lust Have It October 2015 Unboxing

Well played Lust Have it! Well Played! 

This months offering continues to be really strong with x4 full size items. 

Makeup items- 

Lust Have It Strobber/ Illuminator- I love this product- it could be finer milled as a lot of dust is produced in each brush swipe but the effect and colour is perfect. 

Flomar Nail Polish in a really nice Claret red- quite happy with the formula of this guy! 

Flomar Glitter Eyeliner- really nice, easy to use pencil- like the little bit of sparkle it has! 

Bioderma moisture mask 

Hair and Me- oil pre wash treatment

I love masks so I was happy with these! I always use a hair treatment of sorts be it a once a week mask or a heat protection leave in conditioner or Argan oil. It makes a huge difference and helps your cut last longer. 

I try to do a face mask once a week too, my skin is combination though so I'll save this for when it's dryer or stressed. 

Foodie samples- 

I often think the food items in a beauty box are a bit weird but it's 'lifestyle' so I guess it sorta makes sense... 

Atkins low carb choc- these are good! Taste like normal chocolate! Would buy again. 

Skin Tea sample- I'm pregnant and can't use this but will try later! 

So pretty decent contents for $20! For me the: 

Highlight- Strobber

Lowlight- tea sachet 

Bellabox December 2015 Unboxing Hi-Fi Beauty

Be Bright, Be Beautiful 

The cards- 

Jam berry nail wraps- I'm a polish gal not into nail art- I gave these away. 

Clearasil Superfruits Toner- yum, love it love it love it- so refreshing and smells great! 

Kevin Murphy Colour Bug hair chalk- doesn't work on my dark brunette locks- gave it away. 

Waxaway Sampler- this is a weird sample. It's not enough to do a single areas- so if you tried the sample, you'd need to complete the job using another hair removal option. Bit strange. Have yet to use these. 

Kotex tampons- always useful, won't go to waste. I'm not really loyal to any tampon brand per se, but I usually use tampax (I prefer the applicator) but they're really expensive compared to plain tampons so if I can get them on special I usually stock up. 

Kotex have been popping their products into subby boxes recently as a bonus product. 

Avon Femme fragrance sample (x5) not sure if it was a mistake to receive the entire strip of vials?? Smelt nice, fresh, floral. Wouldn't purchase it but was good to try for something different. 

So that's Bellabox contents and thoughts December. 

Highlight: toner 

Lowlight: nail wraps & hair chalk 

Bellabox November 2015 Ready. Set. Glow!

Now this is a better box! Last months Bellabox, while decent, wasn't that exciting. This months feels better in both usefulness and enticing me to crack everything open straight away. 

The Card: 

The Flatlay: 

Cosmetic: 

NYX eyeshadow: I was really really surprised by the high pigment of this product- strong shimmer and bold colour. Good good good. Especially for the party season ahead. 

Ulta3 Nail polish: although also a budget brand- ulta3 make it affordable to try something a bit different without committing a big spend- these polishes are & $3 - $5 and don't last like a Sally Hansen Gel but are awesome for a little fun colour such as this lemony delight! 

Laqa & co Cheeky Lip stick: really nice shade! I'm liking the peachy tone for moving into Summer! 

Skin/ body: 

Redwin Coconut Balm: I love this balm! Move over paw paw etc! I am loco for coconut though so bias most definitely! I will definitely be purchasing this in the future. I used it on bites, a burn & on a dry patch and was so happy with the balms multipurpose application. GO OUT & TRY THIS PRODUCT!! 

Seba Med face & body wash: I like the concept of these PH type products but usually prefer something that smells yummy too. I didn't mind the formula here but would probably only use it if I needed something for specific skin concerns. 

Bic Soliel Razor: this is a pretty deluxe disposable Razor. I don't think it's necessary and thought the guard was too big which inhabited the closeness in some areas of the leg/ underarm. I normally use a men's disposable by Shick. I feel the men's razors last longer and dull slower than the women's counterpart. And men's razors are cheaper- it annoys me that Men's razors are necessity and women's are still considered luxury items. 

Lust Have It November 2015 Unboxing

Lust Have It is having a pretty strong season with November being another crowd pleaser! Once again fantastic value with x3 full size products and a few deluxe samples. 

The box is $20 and month on month they consistently deliver the goods- always over the price paid for the subscription service. 

The card: 

The contents: 

The lip products were sadly a bit to pink for my coloring but are still very nice.

The concealer is a very good colour and consistency- I'll be sourcing this one in the future. I prefer application with a wand than a tub but will see how it retails. 

Ulta3 blush stick is a great shade- ulta3 is a low low budget brand but I always find myself happy with their products that I've tried. This blush isn't too pigmented but I like the sheerness for Summer. 

In a Nutshell: 

Highlight product: concealer & blush stick

Lowlight product: tea was in last month and I can't try it because I'm currently pregnant- will try in future & pads for same reason-pregnant = no period. 

If you wanna give LHI a try- why not use my discount code for $5 off! 

Bellabox October 2015 bb turns 4! Birthday Box Reveal

Bellabox Birthday Month is usually pretty decent- this one is OK, not bad but Bellabox hasn't been as exciting of late. 

The Card: 

Hair oil sachet: I enjoy hair oils and treatments so I looked forward to trying it out- just another hair oil. 

Reef (full size) after sun: I love Reef products but have never used this- bring on Summer! 

Aspar hand cream: I loved the aspar lip balm in Bellabox in the past- keen to try out their other products too now- they have a lovely natural scent and leave the skin feeling soft and fresh. 

Avene Skin Recovery Cream: not really correct for my skin type- wish Bellabox would use the customer info surveys to ensure you don't get stuff you won't use... Maybe will wait for a time when my skin needs a little R & R. 

Costal Scents Blush Sampler: I liked the Costal Scents eyeshadow sample in a past Bellabox so much I bought it. Jury still out on the blush duo. 

Eyeliner brush- I already found a perfect thin angled one so I will probably pass on this one to a friend etc. 

New! Bellabox tries: 

A bonus sample- Kotex pads

Pads must be struggling because there was pads in Lust Have It also. 

Highlight: Reef aftersun 

Lowlight: Avene cream 

What do you think? Have you still been loving Bellabox or has it slipped a little for you too? I've personally been less excited to crack everything open and get trying as months go by.
