Lust Have It! June 2013

I was so excited today, getting home after my exam and finding my Lust Have It! Box had arrived. The theme this month is the ‘Great Gatsby’. I think this is a great theme to go with as the movie has recently been released, people love it and the era of the 1920’s is a popular theme with fashion and beauty at the moment.

This month I received 7 products. There is a good variety of products. There’s makeup, skincare, hair and nail products…two of these items are full sized.

 

 

1.       Rachel K Mineral Colour Control CC cream 4 Sample sized sachets. RRP $39.00, 50ml                                                                                                          

I don’t like receiving sachets as they tend to be messy but that’s ok as I’m excited to try this product. CC cream is more refined and improved than BB cream, combining various benefits all in one- colour control, isolation, whitening, brightening, moisturising and UV protection. It states that it’s non-oily (matte) which is a positive for me.

 

2.       Batiste Dry Shampoo Cherry 50ml sample size. RRP $9.95, 200ml   

I actually love receiving dry shampoo sample products as I often use dry shampoo and the sample size makes it perfect for travel. This is a brand that’s often in this beauty box. I don’t mind the fruity scent of the new cherry fragrance. This claims to instantly revitalise hair, removing excess grease, boosts body and leaves hair feeling fresh and clean. I think it does its job. It leaves my hair feeling refreshed with added volume. The packaging is too cute!

3.       Pure Fiji Hydrating Body Lotion- Coconut- Sample size. RRP $29.95, 354ml

This is another brand that’s often in the box. It’s not my favourite brand but the sample size packaging is again good for travel. I actually really like this scent. It has a coconut vanilla fragrance which is sweet but not overpowering. It contains a rich source of natural antioxidants to moisturise and revitalize the skin.

 

4.       Real Purity Natural Lipstick in Romantic Red Sample size small pot. RRP USA $15.00

I like receiving lipstick samples, however it would be good to receive a small lipstick tube rather than this little pot that I found hard to open. I quite like this lipstick, it isn’t too pigmented, a nice everyday lipstick. It is smooth and makes your lips feel soft.

5.       Savi Organic Soothing Cream Sample size 20ml. RRP $27.95, 60ml    

This cream contains essential oils and plant extracts that have been found to be anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral (so many ‘antis’). It helps soothe and heal problematic skin. I love the fact that it’s made in Australia and it’s organic. It does have a strong scent. Not sure if I’ll use this but I’ll see how I go.

6.       Klara H20 Proof Eyeliner Full size product. 2.2g RRP $18.00

A waterproof eyeliner pencil that provides a vibrant and long-lasting effect. I don’t use black eyeliners very often. I might try this one day.

7.       OPI Pure Lacquer Nail Apps Full size product. 16 strips RRP $19.99

These nail apps give you an instant manicure with a base, colour and top coat all in one. Makes nail art so easy! I love nail products especially nail art stickers and was so excited to receive these. I’ve wanted to try the OPI apps for a while now. I’m not a fan of the design I received, I would never buy this one. I wish I got another design and then I’d be super happy with them!

As always there are some exciting products and some disappointments. Overall I'm happy with the contents, they're products I will use! I give the box 3.5 stars out of 5.

Did you receive anything different? What OPI nail art design did you get? Did you receive the CC cream last month, what’s it like?
