Lust have it! April 2014

I've known about beauty (and now also Fashion) brand 'Lust have it' a little while now. I have the propensity to go overboard at times and get way on board with trends I love. As mentioned before, I have too much neon because I got all consumed by citron. I am well and truly on the subscription box bandwagon. I love it when a lush little surprise package arrives and when you don't know what's inside wooooweeee! So before now I have been paring it back with only one beauty subscription and her fitness box (and a sporadic other treat from time to time & by time to time, I mean all the time. ). 

Lowdown:
Lust have it is a monthly subscription service. For $19.95 per month they will send 5-6 beauty samples to your door. free shipping. Let's just say that again, free shipping. For beauty product lovers to newbies these types of boxes are a great way to start out, build a product base, try new things & sample some of the latest lotions & potions to hit the market. 

The lovely people at lust have it have sent me the latest lust have it box to review for you my pretty readers! Let me just say, I'm a straight shooter- I will be honest to you and if something is crap I will say it.

So lets get started and crack this baby open!


Comes like this: 
Easy peasy little satchel 
First impressions: 
At a glance I knew it was gonna be good!
The contents: 
•Clear makeup purse- really handy 
•Glamourflage 'Jane Gem' Makeup primer- full size 
•Bronzer powder- says full size but it's a deluxe size sample (fs is 10g this is 3g-still very generous) 
•Aveeno body lotion- deluxe sample 
•bioderma moisturizer- deluxe sample
•wotnot wipes- deluxe sample  

The card: flimsier than a bellabox card- doesnt bother me- prefer these types of companies to spend the money where it counts instead of luxury packaging... also environmentally friendlier than a thicker card. 
and Claytime Australia Mini Bronzer swatch 
The clear bag: 
I know its just a bag, and theres no need to get hysterical but I love a clear makeup bag. You never have to rummage for that lost pencil because its right where you can see it!  




Glamorflage primer: 
FULL SIZE! Something every beauty subscription box purchaser loves to see! This retails at $22.95 so it alone pays off the entire boxes value! The product is SILKY smooth (really silky) and gives a matte base for underneath foundation. Everything about it reminds me of a Lancome one I had loved years ago but couldn't replace. ( shakes fist at cosmetic co's for discontinuing everything!) 
Bioderma Atoderm Moisturiser: 
Everything I've ever tried from Bioderma I've liked. They do an awesome cleansing water and I've been usng a scrub sample from anther beauty box that has been good too. This is really soothing and creamy- intended for day use but I'll prob use for night as my makup doesn't last if I use heavy day creams. If you're dry- go for gold and use in the a.m. 

Aveeno Daily moituriser Lotion:
Collodial oatmeal is the ingredient in this that Aveeno boast will make your skin soft, smooth, hydrated. I've loved their Skin relief moisturising cream & their positvely radient face cream in the past and both meet all claims. I'll probably take this mini traveling because I know it'll work a treat if my skin needs soothing from sun, sea or gross plane air.

Claytime Australia Mini Bronzer: 
The size says Full size but I think its a typo as FS is 10g & this is 3g- but who cares- its awesome! Its mineral based (your skin will breath and wont clog) and its a good shade- neutral, not brown, not yellow, not red, not orange. I would say its mid luminious- a made up term to say its not too shiny nor too matte. I personally prefer a cake bronzer as oppsed to loose but regardless will see how it goes. 


Wotnot wipes: 5 pack trial
These really impressed me! The cloth is thick and has plenty of moisture-I left one on table accidentally overnight and it was still moist in the morning.
Is anyone else
 sick of dry scratchy wipes
?
These are great and I will repurchase these wiith 100% certainty. 

Overall I'm really pleased with my first Lust Have It experience and am impressed with the contents and value. I promised to say if something is crap but nothing was. 

HIGHLIGHT: primer & wipes
LOWLIGHT:  none
