June 2012 Lust Have It bag!

Today my Lust Have It box (bag) came in the post and I was super excited to receive it. This month's theme is "Fun and Flirty" and although that might sound exciting.. well.. i'll let you guys be the judge.

This month's bag is a purple one and i love it! I'm probably being biased because purple is my favourite colour but even more so because i will actually use it as a makeup bag and take it traveling now. I wasn't too fond of the pink one as funnily enough that is my least favourite colour ever so i'm really happy with this month's bag. Not so much the products..

LonVitalite - 24k Active Golden Yulan Oil Facial Mask
5 pack RRP: $59.00
What you get: 1 mask

LonVitalite - 24k Active Gold Full Eye Mask
5 pack RRP: $45.00
What you get: 1 mask

Ahh.. again with the masks, i feel like i'm building up a collection here lol, maybe i'll collect so many I might just use them so that i can slowly get rid of them. But really, as i've always mentioned, not a fan of masks and now i have two in one pack! We'll see how it goes,  I might cave in and use them one day..

Batiste - Blush Dry Shampoo
150ml RRP: $9.95
What you get: 50ml

This is a cute travel size, definitely something I can just throw in my bag for touch ups for when my roots get oily. I already use a different branded dry shampoo but i'm curious to try this one out.

Bloom - Glitter Eyeliner in "Star Gazer"
4g RRP: $14.95
What you get: 4g (full size)

This looks interesting. I don't own a glitter eyeliner and i'm not against them I just never had the need to go out and buy one but i'm happy to have received this. The swatch on my arm is just one swipe of it. I dont really feel anything towards it, it may just end up being a product I forget i own. The colour isnt that nice but maybe i can work with it.

Marc Jacobs - Daisy
50ml RRP: $90
What you get: 1.2ml

Marc Jacobs - Daisy Eau So Fresh
75ml RRP: $115
What you get: 1.2 ml

More perfume samples.. I feel towards this like i feel towards face masks, I never end up using them as i find perfume gives me really bad headaches so i dont like spraying them on myself. I'll probably end up with a collection of these as well and end up giving them away. Guess it won't be too bad in that case. But i was a little disappointed that we got two perfume samples in this month's bag, they're easily enough to get at the department stores but oh well.

Overall, I'm thoroughly disappointed with this month's LHI bag. There's nothing that I actually like let alone love unless you count the actual bag itself which is funny cos i absolutely loved May's LHI but i guess we cant be pleased every month so i'll keep with them for a while longer.

What did you get in your LHI? Let me know in the comments! x

Bellabox June 2012

Today I received my Bellabox for June 2012. I received the notification from Australia Post that it was delivered while i was at work so I was pretty anxious to get home and find out what I received this month! This month's box works around the theme of Winter Escape. So without further delay, let's take a look..

And in no particular order..

1. Facial Fresh Cloth Facial Treatment Mask
35ml RRP from $8.95
What you get: 1 mask

I don't really know what to say about this, I received a mask as well in the May box and personally I just don't use them. I've never used a facial mask before and I don't really intend to so i sort of wished I didnt get these but maybe they'll be useful to my mum or a friend. I'm not really sure.

 2. Pure Fiji Body Butter 
 235ml RRP $29.95
What you get: 15ml

This looks really nice and smells divine. I rubbed a small amount onto my hands and it instantly felt soft and nice to touch. I'm really looking forward to using this and will probably keep it on my desk at work to apply throughout the day.

3. Nak Diamond Hair Polish - Frizz Fighter
100ml RRP $22.95
What you get: Full size

I'm really excited to try out this product. It says it can be used as a heat protectant which is awesome for me as I dont actually use heat protectant on my hair and i use heat styling products everyday! I know, i know that is realllllly bad, but.. i've just been really lazy so i'm glad I have this in full size and can't wait to see how it turns out.

4. Benefit POREfessional Pro Balm
22ml RRP $58.00
What you get: 7.5ml 

This is such a cute sample size. I already own the full size of this product and I love it. The aim of the product is to minimise your pores for a flawless base so you can apply foundation or whichever product over a smooth surface. It really works! I love this so much and find that it really shrinks the size of my pores and gives a smooth and matte finish making my foundation glide on smoothly. So happy with this.

5. Kiss Dress Nails
up to 28 nail covers per pack RRP $13.99
What you get: pack of 28

I don't really care too much for this. I'm not really a nail person and if i do my nails, i prefer to paint them myself. Also, not a fan of the design that I got so will probably be giving this away.

 
6. Fan Di Fendi Fragrance 
30ml EDP RRP $95
What you get: Sample size

I'm not really sure how much product you get in this satchet as it feels completely flat so I'm assuming that it's just enough to rub on your neck or wrist once. I'm not a perfume lover so again, i can see this going to waste or to someone that would have more use of it than myself.

7. Olea Olive Leaf Drops
12 Drops RRP $6.00
What you get: 4 Drops

Really? I kind of don't know what to say about this. I'll give you guys the description that comes with the box on this product: "Olea Olive Lead Drops combine fresh-picked Olive Leaf Extract with UMF 10+ Manuka honey for immune and cardiovascular support, as well as giving you a boost of antioxidant power. 100% natural and fast acting, pop one of these drops next time you feel the winter sniffles coming on!"
Honestly, i just don't feel that these should have been put in, but I guess that they went with the theme of Winter Escape, i just dont feel it was exactly beauty related even though i get where bellabox is coming from.

All in all, I'm actually more happy with this box than May's even though there a few products in this month's box i know i won't be using, I'm super excited to try the Nak Diamond Hair Polish and Fiji body butter and i love the Benefit Porefessional sample tube.

Have you received your bellabox yet? Did you receive different products? let me know! x
