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 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!

Lust Have It February 2015- all about Makeup Review

Hi Pretties! 

The Lust Have It for Feb was good value contents wise with x4 full size and 1x deluxe sample item. It's that time of the year when our skins needs change and our colours choices need review. 
The plum lip liner is perfect for moody  Winter palettes as the cooler weather approaches. 





Total value- 81.84 
Liner 2.95
Concealer 27.95
Foundation 29.95
Liquid liner 8.99
Exfoliant (pro rate) 12.00 

Cost to customers $19.95 awesome! Use my code if you are keen to try it out! 


Highlight- concealer (And I liked the makeup but it was like mud 😔 so I bought the lighter shade at Priceline) 
Lowlight- maybe the liquid liner, but not really- no low light this month! 

What???
