Fun & Flirty, August Lust Have It!

21 Aug

After bella box last week, my Lust Have It box came in the mail today! They are celebrating their first birthday, with annual members getting an extra little surprise in this box (not me as I missed the very first month!). It did come a little bit later in the month than usual, however Lust Have It have grown so fast it’s understandable there is a couple of little teething problems!

The first thing you will notice is the different packaging. It’s like a present! It’s back in the theme of their originally packaging, rather than the makeup bags with is nice for a change. I think I have four of those bags now so running out of things to do with them!

And what is inside..

Dot by Marc Jacobs EDP

I LOVE Marc Jacobs fragrances, and with this one not in stores yet it’s great to be able to try it out early! It’s quite different to the Daisy Scents, still with a hint of floral it’s strongest fragrance is of Red Berries, followed by Jasmine. This will make a really great spring perfume!

RRP $160 for 100ml

Appelles Products

This looks a lot like a little trio of products you would get after staying at a hotel. I have never seen their stand alone stores before but apparently they are opening a few more stores soon.

Included from this brand is the Skin Detox Shower gel which has a very strong berry scent, the Body Booster Skin Lotion & the Vegetable Bar Soap.

RRP Shower Gel & Lotion $12.95 100ml Soap $4.95 4og

Tigi Rockaholic – Rock Out Shine Blaster

This product can help reduce hair drying time and leave you with silky shiny tresses. Can be applied to either damp or dry hair.

RRP $27.95 100ml

tanGo Tan Removal Cloth 

Probably not quite so useful for me as I very rarely use fake tan, but an interested product I would love to know how well it works! It’s similar to a microfibre cloth & is said to evenly remove self tanner. Luckily it can be doubled as a make up remover if you just add water so I’ll probably be more likely to give that a go!

RRP 21.95 (inside card says 29.95 but that is for the glove not the cloth)

ModelCo Eyeliner 

Now, don’t get me wrong I actually love ModelCo products, their latest Mascara has been pretty good but I have used this eyeliner before and it’s a little unimpressive. I am sure quite a few LHI members have also received it, I think it was a bonus If you signed up to their facebook site or something? Mine broke straight away, but I have been able to use the sharpener for other pencils!

RRP 26.00

So what did you think of this months Lust Have It Box?? There have been others I’ve preferred more than this, but I still think this box gives you a good assortment of products to test out.

Lust Have It… July

23 Jul

Another good Monday morning delivery from the postman!

So what was in the box..

Avene Gentle Purifying Scrub (5ml) & Eye Make Up Remover(25ml)

There has been a few Avene samples in these boxes so far, which doesn’t bother me at all because everything I’ve tried so far I’ve loved! I’m looking forward to trying this Eye Make Up Remover Gel.

Scrub RRP $38.95/50ml Make Up Remover $22.95/125ml

Tigi Shine Junkie Lip Gloss

Since when did Tigi do lipgloss? Or have I been hiding under a rock..? This colour is Bronze and it has a hint of mint when you apply it. Would you know, it’s also incredibly shiny!

RRP $16.95

Pure Fiji Hydrating Body Lotion

This smells like Orange Blossoms and I do like the Pure Fiji Products!

RRP $29.95/350ml

Matrix Deep Smoothing Shampoo & Conditioner

These are good size samples (30 & 50ml) , perfect for travelling and I look forward to trying them out as I haven’t tried much from Matrix before.

SO what did you think of this months Lust Have It? Can you tell I’m writing this post half asleep..?

 

 

 

 

 

 

April Lust Have It

18 Apr

What a fun week of mail so far! Today I got my lust have it box as I was heading out to my first exam which was great timing as I had something to look forward to when I got home!

The first thing I noticed was the box was almost double the size the previous one.. And inside all the contents were in a make up case!

It’s a nice, decent sized case with a zip! And the contents didn’t disappoint!

First up- De Lorenzo Elements Sea Salt Styling Spray
I think it’s a little embarrassing to admit I’ve never owned sea salt spray before but I’ve always seen how great it can make hair look! Certainly look forward to trying to get some nice beach hair!

Full size RRP $ 23.95

EmerginC Phytocell Detox Mask, Kombucha Cleanser and Phytocell Cream

These three 3ml sachets are a good sample size, and I am a huge fan of a good face mask so I look forward to trying this one out. It says it is a “French green clay mask” so sounds good!
The Phytocell Cream says it is a grape stem-cell based moisturizer (fancy) and I have no idea what Kombucha is!

RRP cleanser $44 120ml mask $65 50ml and moisturizer $105 50ml

True Solutions All Day Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 30

I have heard a lot about true solutions but never tried it, so look forward to giving this a go. It’s a great sample size too the only thing is its one shade fits all so see how me and my pale face goes!

RRP $60 100ml

Spa Fresh Blends Romantic Discovery

A bath “tonic” with Rose Petals, oils of Sweet Orange, Bergamot and Ylang Ylang. I love having nice bath salts for the rare occasions that I actually use the bath!
RRP $15.95

I Nuovi Glitteratti

AdobePhotoshopExpress_20120418122424

Some cosmetic glitter! A lot of ladies were excited about this being in the box, It’s good because everyone likes a bit of sparkle by I don’t think i’ve ever really succesfully used cosmetic glitter before. I’ll keep my eye out for everyone else’s posts to try and get some inspiration!

RRP $19.95

And, not part of April’s Lust Have It pack but as an added extra to the March one I received a mirenesse Tight Liner in black caviar

Told you i’ve had a fun mail week! I haven’t tested this one out yet but once I do I’ll let you know!!
Now back to studying…. Also apologies if anyone got multiple notices of this post, i tried to write from my Ipad but had some issues and it kept publishing, one day I’ll learn!!

So what did you think of the Lust Have It pack for this month?? It’s one of my favourites so far!

Lust Have It March

6 Mar

Lust have it was the first box to arrive again this month, and they had given some little hints on facebook as to its contents so I had high expectations… did it deliver?

Yes!! FOUR full sized products and one deluxe sample from one of my favourite brands, Kosmea. So what was in the box..?

Kosmea Replenishing Moisture Cream

Kosmea is fast becoming my go-to brand for products, they are all amazing and really help to settle my skin down. Moisturisers are something I have problems with quite often as they tend to not help my dryness while upsetting my skin. Luckily it’s not the case with this one! It feels fantastic and while not as thick as other moisturisers is absorbed really easily into the skin. It has rose hip oil and green tea extract which makes it feel cooling and fresh. If you didn’t get this box, I highly recommend trying this product!

RRP 49.95 50ml

Davroe Moisture Senses Argan Oil

I am currently using another Argan oil product which smells horrible, so I was glad this one was nicely scented! It does add shine to hair but doesn’t feel greasy. The nice scent is Jasmin Musk so it leaves hair smelling lovely!

RRP 23.95

Karapati Dito Nail Lacquer in “Intrigue”

This was one of the products LHI announced was going to be in the box, and I was pretty interested to try it! I’m still not sure if I just think the packaging is gimmicky or really practical, I think it would take a while to get used to..! The colour didn’t show up very well but is a winey dark red and will be a good winter colour!

RRP 19.95

1Skin Solutions Lip Balm

I was going to take a picture of all the lipbalms currently circulating in my bags/drawers/desk but that would be a little embarrasing. This is definetely one of the good ones though, it is Vanilla scented and very moisturising. It contains Vitamin E and Cocoa Butter and I’ve been using every day under my lipstick.

RRP 9.90

Mirenesse Pearl Crush Creaseless Shadow in Tahitian Pearls

Alright, I have a question. Does anyone actually purchase Mirenesse products anymore? It feels like they give things away constantly in their shop and through these boxes. This was included as well as a code to redeem a free Caviar Tight Black Liner. I’m looking forward to trying that though! While I like the brown and neutral colour the greeny/silver colour kind of but me off. I had a LOT of eyeshadow in these types of brown colours but will be good to see how they wear.

You can’t deny this LHI box was amazing value, and included some fantastic products! What do you think of the Karapati Nail Lacquer? x
