Lust Have It November!

I received my Lust Have It box for November on Friday which was a bit of a surprise considering they usually barely arrive before the last day of the month. After last month's feedback Lust Have It promised to pick up their game and improve their boxes. I think they have taken a step in the right direction but they aren't quite back to their original standard just yet. 

Included in the November Lust Have It was: 

Model Co Fibre Lashxtend Mascara (full size)

This is the product that I've seen everyone most excited about, I gave it a go earlier and it seemed to lengthen my lashes quite nicely. 

Davroe Hair Wellness Straightening Balm

Surprise surprise another Davroe product, I'm thankful I didn't get the detangler again and I get to try something else out but most of their products have been unsatisfying. It would have been nice if this brand was skipped this month. 

Face Of Australia Purifying Cleansing Wipes (full size)

Again good to have another full size product but I always have makeup wipes so this wasn't very exciting. 

Lomasi Body Creme

This body lotion smells really lovely, it's nice to try a different brand as well. 

Star & Rose Hologram Tweezers

These tweezers are different but I have so many tweezers laying around at home. 

As you can see LHI only included five products, two of them being full size. I know I shouldn't complain because it is better than last months but in comparison to this months Bellabox I can't help but feel underwhelmed with the contents. It would have been nice to see them include some of the brands they have listed on their site that we haven't received products from. At least we know they are listening to their customers feed back and are trying to improve the quality of their boxes. I will stay subscribed to LHI, especially because next month they have said they will be releasing new packaging which will hopefully be pretty exciting. 

Did you receive this month's Lust Have It if so what did you think? 

November Bellabox

It's another month which means another Bellabox, I always look forward to receiving my Bellabox and it's definitely my favourite subscription box at the moment. My last few Bellaboxes have been exciting with a great range of diverse products and Novembers box was no exception. 

I can never believe how many products they include in their boxes, I guess that's the point of a subscription box to try out lots of different products. The products that were included in Novembers Bellabox are to prep us with the best summer staples so here are the 'Soiree Season Staples'. 

Dr LeWinn's Facial Polishing Gel 

I have wanted to try this forever but always put it back when I saw the price so it'll be nice to try it out. 

Swisse Hand Cream With Vitamin D & Pomegranate

I just finished my Sukin hand cream so I'm definitely happy to have a new one to try. 

Palmolive Luscious Mango Body Butter Body Wash 

I used some of this tonight, it smells delicious like real mangoes love it already.

Skinmiso Pore Beauty Nose Pack

I'm always interested in Korean skin care products because I always hear so many amazing things about them so I'm really looking forward to giving these a go. 

Dr LeWinn's Skin Perfect Primer & Dr LeWinn's Skin Perfect Foundation

I usually hate these sample packets but it'll be nice to use a primer and a foundation without worrying about it cluttering up my makeup drawers. Plus the rest of the box is so fantastic it doesn't bother me. 

4me Nail Polish Remover Pads

I also tried these tonight and they worked surprisingly well, these will be great for travelling. 

B by Bloom Cheek Tint

Love trying out new blushes especially cream ones, I look forward to using this. 

Bioderma Sebium H20 Cleansing Water

I have used the Crealine version of this and it was amazing, I can't wait to use this so I can decide which full size I will buy. 

As you can see I'm pretty excited about everything in this months box and I was not disappointed in the slightest. I love the variety in this box and think it's probably my favourite one so far. 

Did you receive Bellabox this month, what did you think? 

Products I've Recently Used Up

Today I have a mini review on some of the products I've finished recently. I didn't want to call this post 'October Empties' because it's far too late in the month, but these are some products I used up over the        past couple of weeks and I wanted to share my thoughts on them with you

Batiste Coloured Dry Shampoo

As the name suggests this is a dry shampoo for coloured hair specifically brown, so we can finally avoid getting those white patches. I quite liked this product it does exactly what it's supposed to and smelled nice. I will most likely repurchase especially in Summer. 

Garnier Fructis Instant Detangler

I have the worst hair, it's curly and dry which means endless knots and constant struggling with brushing my hair. I have tried so many detanglers and nothing has worked as good as this. I love this product, although I did go through it really fast. I will definitely be repurchasing.

Sukin Hand & Nail Cream

I've had this product for so long now so I'm kind of glad to be done with it so I can try out something else. It's a good hand cream but the scent can get a little overwhelming after a while. I do like that it doesn't make my hands feel greasy though. 

Davroe Detangler

Like I said above, there is no detangler I've tried better than the Garnier one. This was awful, it made my hair feel worse than before I sprayed it on and I just really didn't like it. I received this in my Lust Have It and no I would not repurchase. 

Lush Dark Angels Cleanser
By now you probably know Megan and I are both fans of Lush, I bought this quite awhile ago and really enjoyed using it. It is a black paste so it can get a little messy but does a great job of ex foliating and getting rid of the days make-up and oil. I'm currently using a different cleanser but I would repurchase in the future.

Mirenesse Tinted Mineral Balm

This was received in my September Lust Have It, and if you read that post you know I was less than enthused about receiving it. Nonetheless I used it all, it was a weird tinted cream for anti ageing but it just felt like a thick primer or something and did not provide any coverage. I wouldn't repurchase. 

Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation

I loved this foundation, and was pretty sad when I finished it. It's the perfect everyday foundation as it's not too heavy for my skin. I also love the dewiness it provides. The only downfall is I can't seem to find my perfect shade. I will be repurchasing this. 

Gorgeous Cosmetics First Base Foundation Primer

I actually got this for free at their Stall at IMATS this year, I really liked this Primer but not as much as my Benefit one. I do want to try some other Gorgeous Cosmetics products though. 

Schwarzkopf Ultimate Repair Anti Damage Mask 

Always on the hunt for a good ahir mask to help my dry damaged hair I tried this. It was alright but not a miracle product. I'm still looking for something great and would love some recommendations. 

Nivea Daily Essentials Rich Regenerating Night Cream for Dry Skin

This night cream was great for the first couple of weeks but I think it went bad because it started to develop a weird smell. It did do a good job of keeping my skin hydrated overnight but I couldn't keep using it. I'm very happy with what I'm using now and want to do a post on my current skincare routine. 

Hope you enjoyed this post, what products have you used up lately? 

Obsessed: Twosies

As you all know I have become a little obsessed with matching sets or "twosies" as some people like to call them. I currently only own two (which you can see me wearing them here and here) but I have my eye on a few more. I have picked out a couple of my favourite to share with you girls.

1. Sportsgirl 

2. Sportsgirl

3. Sportgirl (on sale!) 

4. Sportsgirl 

5. Topshop

6. Topshop

7. Sportsgirl

I love that Sportsgirl has really gotten into the trend seeing as it is very accessible, as with Topshop.

There are so many out at the moment and I want/need all of them.

Let me know if you love twosies as much as I do!

P.S. Stay tuned for our 300 follower giveaway xo

Lust Have It October!

It may seem a little late in the month to be posting the October Lust Have It but I didn't receive this until yesterday (ridiculous I know). If you follow Lust Have It on Facebook you would have seen a lot of negative feedback regarding this months boxes. I've mention in my last couple of LHI posts that I was growing tired of their boxes and nothing was really wowing me - this month was no exception. I feel unsatisfied as a customer having to wait a whole month for something to come to me and I paid for it in the first couple of days of October, not to mention the contents was once again unexciting. 

Lust Have It have promised to pick up their game so I'm giving them one last chance to redeem themselves before I unsubscribe. As I said earlier the october box didn't particularly excite me, especially when compared to the October Bella Box. 

This is what was included in this months Lust Have It: 

Mask In A Cup Facial Mask $9.95

This product seems interesting enough, but I doubt anything will beat the Lush face masks I'm obsessed with. Mine was also squashed when I opened my box - thankfully it didn't leak.  I will give this a go and see if it's nice 

NYX Cosmetics Girls Nail Polish $4.95

We finally recieve a NYX product and it's a nail polish....I like the colour but I already have something so similar. I will probably use this, I definitely would have preferred to try a NYX makeup product. 

Avene Cleanance Skin Products $24.95

More Avene products, I've used quite a few of their products and none of them have really had me going to buy more. I will try these out as they are for acne prone skin, but honestly I think myself and quite a few others are sick of being bombarded with Avene samples - when on their site there seems to be brands we have never received products from. 

Caron Waxaway Ready To Use Sensitive Wax Strips 20pk $9.95

I already have my at home Veet wax kit, so these will probably get thrown in a drawer never to be used. The sample provided would even do one of my legs. 

Star & Rose Bath Fizzer $4.95

I don't have a bathtub at my house, so this will also be going in a drawer never to be used. 

They also included some vouchers for Adorn & Harvest Box - like I mention in a previous Lust Have It post I hate when they put these in, it's like they're trying to make up for the lack of quality in the box. 

Overall it wasn't the worst box but it certainly wasn't the best, I used to so look forward to receiving my Lust Have It in the middle of the month and now I feel like it's such a waste of money. I think LHI really need to step it up next month with new exciting products and brands, especially if they want to keep people subscribing.
