Lust Have It double review month on month July and August 2015

Hey Pretties- I received these packs pretty close together and I'm not sure what months they are- I've lost track! This year Lust Have It skipped a month and the usually run a teeny bit behind schedule so it's not always easy to know. I believe these are July & August 2015.

Every now and then I like to do a double box reveal so you can see what consistency is like and gives you an idea of if you subscribed what concurrent boxes may be like. Sometimes one off reviews are good but this just shows a different perspective! Let me know what you think!? 

Box 1 (July) 

The contents: 

Swatches: 

I was really happy with this box! 4x full size products, a deluxe sample and a shampoo and conditioner sachet. 

Very good value! 

- Bombshell 'the one' stick: a multipurpose stick for lips and cheeks

- Bombshell lipgloss (tericotta shade) 

- Hikari eyeshadow quad 

(I wish the colors worked together but they don't- that would be a better way for LHI to send them but you can't use any of this at the same time) 

- Paula's choice wrinkle repair serum

- Racinne Aqua Blanc cream 

- Garner shampoo & conditioner sachet

Box 2 (August)

The contents: 

This was a really excellent box in terms of value and use! EVERY product is full size! 

-red carpet color: body glow (full size) 

-mellow cosmetics mineral twist eyeliner ( full size) 

-ulta 3 volume and length mascara (full size) 

- reed orange and poppy seed scrub (full size) 

- mellow cosmetics mineral eyeshadow (full size) 

My fave picks are the body lotion and the eyeliner. 

The lotion is luminous and hides imperfections and provides good coverage.

The liner DOES NOT BUDGE! It stays sharp and clean- really impressive! 

Obviously nothing bad about this box whatsoever!

So what do you think? Month on month consistently great value, full size products, and a good mix between skincare and cosmetics.

Lust Have It April/May 2015 Review

Lust Have It April was a cracker! It is technically a May box as April was skipped to catch up. It was full of great products in full sized and deluxe sized samples. The value of this box for the customer is awesome! Again no mesh bag this month but that's not a worry! 

The full package: 

The card: 

Soak samples- l-r Shampoo, Conditioner & Body Lotion 

Bloom foundation stick- really velvety and smooth with medium coverage

Hola Eye Cream- this packaging looks like a Benefit knock off! Thought that was odd... The product itself is Creme-gel like in texture and quite juicy feeling- definitely hydrating. 

Sheet Masks- eye and face- these are great! They give a massive pep and are great for a mid week pick me up! Love a mask! 

I've sampled this brand before and adored their lotion- this is the body butter version Coconut Revolution products feel lush and rich- I look forward to using this little tube! 

So there it is- Lust Have It April! I loved this box! Everything was useful! 

Box fave: foundation based on pure value with the eye gel a close second! 

Least fave: didn't have one! 

At 19.95 Lust Have It is a great buy- if you wanna subscribe feel free to use the code LIDDLE1 

The Parcel by Girlfriend Autumn 2015

Recently I've been a bit disapointed with Bellabox, after looking at a few forums it looked like trying the parcel was the way perfect way to go.

The Parcel offers a Marie Claire Box at $29.95 per quarter and the Girlfriend box at $19.95 pr quarter. I admit I felt like a teeny bopper getting the girlfriend one but in the past i tried Marie Claire and didnt love the colours I recieved. Plus other reviews of the Girlfriend Parcel looked pretty positive and consitent.

see my Marie Claire Parcel review here

 The Parcel by Girlfriend Box with sleeve cover 

The inner box

The contents! 

What I loved most was the box contained no crummy sachets. All products were full size or deluxe minitures. 

Bellabox February 2105 Beauty School Unboxing

Bellabox Feb was an Elle magazine colaboration- i love it when they do this because its usually a decent box and you get a magazine to enjoy aswell. 

The parcel came in the below sachel: 

The Card 

The Box 

The contents were definitely worth the $15 pricetag- just the nail polish alone covers the cost of the box. Travel size makeup wipes also particularly handy. bellaboxhas had less full sized items of late so it was niceto get one this time. 

Highlight: Essie nail polish 

Lowlight: Keratase double up 

The Spread 

Sadly over the last little while I have recieved duplicated items from Bellabox- a bit dispointing whenthe point is to discover new things- this appartently shouldnt be possible according to how Bellbox organise their product distribution but in anycase they were kind enough to replace the samples.  Greatly appreciated. 

Double trouble 

Do you get Bellabox? what was your highlight & lowlight?

Bellabox March 2015 #HighlightMy...

Hey Pretties, 

This box wasn't really a highlight box... But hey you can't get a great box everytime. Unfortunately this box tallied very close to the $15 paid for the subscription service so it was possibly the lowest value box I've ever received.

You'll See by the tally on the card. I've put brief comments on what I thought of each sample. 

Xxx 

Contents & value per item: 

Overall contents: 

Shampoo sachet and hair oil vial: 

(Hair oil was not bad)

Foundation sachet & lip plump sachet: (never used) 

Palmers skincare: 

(Cleanser not especially effective, cream was ok but I would not purchase it) 

Eye liner in emerald: 

(Smooth formula, not particularly smudge proof or long wearing but the colour is nice) 

So that's that!

Hopefully better next time! 

What did you think of this box?? 

Lust Have It March 2015 Unboxing

Woo hoo! Lust Have It March 2015 is here! It's a bit delayed with it's arrival in May but it is worth the wait because it has one of my fave body brands included in the parcel. These delays seem to happen with lots of subscription companies but in the end the goodies arrive and it's always exciting to open one of these beauty discovery delights! 

There was no iconic pink mesh bag this month- March Lust Have It came in this pop up cardboard pouch. I believe they will be back in parcels in the future. 

The contents! There was no products card this time round but everything is pretty self explanatory. 

Urban Skincare co Body Clesnser

Appelles Shampoo and Conditioner 

Lonvitale Facial Sheet Mask 

Uriage Cleansing Water and Moisturiser 

Model Co BB Cream

All in all a pretty decent box. The BB makes up the cost of the Box so the $19.95 value is well and truly met.

My fave pick: the Urban skincare co body wash and the Appelles Shampoo and Conditioner. These products smell fantastic and are a pleasure to use! 

Could do without: uriage products (but only because it's not suitable for my skin type) 

Hopefully this gave you some insight as what you might receive from Lust Have it!
