Lust Have it August 2014 Birthday Month!!

Lust Have It August BIRTHDAY MONTH!

I didn't get a July box and I didn't realise this until my August box came. Woo hoo Lust Have it! Youre back in my life and it's awesome! 

Hot tip: always subscribe to a Birthday box- they're always good and often full of full size or deluxe products! 

That said I do love a beauty box any time (all the time) 

Super cute card:

Back of card contents: 

This months is in a cute mesh bag, handy as ever! 

Contents: 

-Eleven Australia hair treatment full size

-Eassenzza facial wipes full size with bonus travel size!

-BioElixia stretch mark cream full size 

-Bioderma cleansing water sample size 

-marsk eyeshadow brush full size

And a stack of discount coupons and flyers 

-BioElixia stretch mark cream

Really rich and nourishing, I can't say long term yet but my fist impression of application, texture and smell- all good. 

-Eleven Australia hair treatment 

I always love a hair treatment for maintaining healthy locks. From the description this product is all that and a bag of chips! It promises to be lightweight which to me is super important. And it has a pump- ticks all boxes! 

-Marsk eyeshadow brush 

I needed to purchase a new eyeshadow brush- how did you know LHI?! This one is great quality, it's super soft but not flimsy and will definitely be able to create the crease definition I'm after.

-Eassenzza facial wipes full size with bonus travel size!

I love wipes for when I'm traveling or feeling a bit lazy but still want a good clean. These ones also promise to exfoliate. Loving the mini travel pack bonus! 

-Bioderma cleansing water sample

I already own this in a big 500ml bottle- I love love love cleansing water products and have used Clarins & Garnier varieties also- the thing that's great about it is that it's soooo gently but insanely effective. It's powerful enought to melt mascara but doesn't irritate- if you've never tried cleansing waters- give them a go! 

Variety of fliers- sometimes promo crap is just that- crap- in this pile there was actually a good assortment and a few brands to check out online, I think LHI knows their customer and has found good brand partners to liase with. 

Highlight: hair treatment or eyeshadow brush

Lowlight: there wasn't one :) 

So that was it! What do you think? Did you get the same assortment? 

I was thoroughly impressed and so happy with this months curation! Totally recomend subscribing! Should you want to you can use the code below! 

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
