In one of the lust have it boxes- there was a voucher to try the 'Eco' box at a reduced price. It normally retails at $29.95 quarterly but I think I paid half that for this box.
The product card:
Let me jut st start by saying the packaging was a nightmare! It was filled with that shredded woody paper crap- needless to say- it went everywhere! My dog was trying to sticky beak and eat it and I was trying to see what was in the box but everything I took out only scattered the packfill even more! What a mess!
The Contents:
Natural Galmour Bronzer: leaked through three lids and a box- not for travel friends! The product itself is a good colour and has a fine texture- you just can't move it off your vanity otherwise your in for a gigantic mess!
Sukin Cleanser: not irritating in anyway- leaves skin feeling soft and clean
Billie Goat Soap: I can't decide if I loved this because it is cut into the shape of a goat or if I love it just because it's good! It's not hard soap but it's not a glycerine soap- the texture is in between. Really silky- a good leg shaving soap.
Jojoba oil: I just can't get excited about this- it's alright but you've tried one, you've tried em all.
Karpati eye mask: this was a nice little treat to revive the eyes pepped the peepers!
La Mav eye lotion: I used the entire sample consistently for a few weeks, it's calming, comfortable to use but nothing to write home about. It sort of pushes around until it either evaporates or sinks in wasn't sure which!
Weleda shampoo & conditioner sachet: another hohum good not great/ nothing exciting product- it's fine, does an ok job but nothing spec.
Overall I wasn't blown away- each item was fine in it's own way but nothing really rocked my socks- the Bronzer would have been the star product had it not leaked everywhere. Maybe this box isn't the right fit for me- if I wanted specialty products for specific ingredient/ ethical concerns- it might have been. Sometimes a rockstar hero product can redeem an entire box- unfortunately there was no star to steal the show!
Highlight: goat soap
Lowlight: La Mav eye lotion
