Lust Have It - June 2012

This post is for my initial thought about the June box. 
Actual Product reviews will be up next weekend.

Here is my JUNE edition of Lust have it! Box.

I know it is still valuable and fantastic to try new products at home without hassle
but, to be honest... I am disappointed.

I don't know if it is because... 
I've got 2 perfume samples that I don't like
or
last 2 boxes had small problem each time 
(didn't get a mask in Apr & a product spilled out in May)
or
The contents remind me Glossybox and
other beauty box brand, bellabox, has been so great...

I'm sorry to say this but I just don't feel exciting this time.
 The product variation in the box remind me Glossybox..not Lust have it quality.

Lets see what in June box.

6 products in June 2012 box

1 / 2 : LonVitalie - 24K Active Gold Facial Mask and Full Eye Mask
I have never heard about this brand but 24K Active Gold sounds very interesting.
I use a paper facial mask every weekend so I definitely will try these products.
I am new to FULL eye mask. looking forward to using it!

3. Batiste - Blush Dry Shampoo
I knew about Dry Shampoo from other beauty blogs 
but I actually never had a chance to try before.
I just used it this morning and....
LOVE the sweet scent, easy to use and feel refreshing instantly!
I've purchased full size item from Priceline @ $7.99(AUD)

4. Bloom - Shade and Line 3in1 (full sized item)


This 3in1 eyeline features a crayon pencil, eye shadow wand and smudge tool.
Great fora smokey effect.
I got 'times square' shade.

5 /6 : Chloe and Marc Jacobs - Small Perfume Samples 
I personally hate perfume samples in subscription beauty boxes.
I got perfume samples two months in a row,
1 perfume sample in MAY and got 2 in JUNE box,
so I am disappointed.
I am sure there are many people who is happy with it but not me.
You can get these samples at counters easily 
and when it comes to fragrance, everyone has a particular taste and preference.

LOLA Marc Jacobsa warm floral bouquet, with notes of ruby red grapefruit, 
fuschia peony and warm tonka bean.

L'EAU DE Chloecontains an exceptional concentration of distilled rosewater 
with a delicate citrus harmony lending it a rare refreshing feeling.

extra: Beautiful purple make-up bag

So, what did you think about June Lust have it?

*Review* 1Skin Solution NEW Tinted Lip Butter

Last week, I received this tinted lip butter in the mail. Yay!


This is a New "Tinted Lip Butter" Product from 1Skin Solution.
Available 4 shades
Strawberry Rose Champagne
- Coconut Plum
- Guava Lemonade
- Almond Biscotti

and.... I've got a Guava Lemonade ;)

The Positives,
First impression for the package was...
not so attractive but it is a SIMPLE BEAUTY.
Smells subtle but you will find it has a yummy lemonade scent.

Guava Lemonade shade is very soft peachy colour that would be great for everyday use.
the butter gives my lips nude but feminine tone on.

Some Negatives...
I guess it supposes to be easy to use but I found some struggle with it.
It is very flaky. maybe because they use many natural ingredients...?!
when I tried the lip butter on, it left some flakes on my lips.
It was certainly NOT pleasant but as soon as  I tapped and blended it with my finger,
the colour finally got evenly toned.

the texture of the butter is not smooth as other brand ones like Revlon
and slightly tacky, dead-skin magnet...you must have exfoliated clean skin. lol

Also, this is happened to my Vanilla Lip Balm
but the lip butter has huge hole in the middle of tube.
Maybe most of you don't care about it but I'm a bit of a perfectionist...
that is something I cannot stand :S
It is simply difficult to use when there is a flaky part.
Unfortunately, the delicate texture is too delicate for me.


This is not colour-stay lipstick so don't expect colour stay long on your lips. 
As you can see in the photo, it will leave the stain colour on the cup easily.


Over all, loved package, shade and scent 
but I would have preferred better texture.

I'm keep smiling with Bellabox Australia!!


I loved loved loved this month box ;)
Here are the items I received...


Full of products...again!!

Benefit Facial Cream 3.5g & Pore care item "POREfessional" 7.5ml

awe Gentle Cleanser 3mlx2 & Renewal System 5ml

Pure Fiji Body Butter Orange Blossam about 20ml?

FAN DI FENDI Fragrance satchel sample

Sally Hansen Color Quick Nail Color Pen - full size

Shade:08 Red Chrome(Chrome Rouge)

4 OLEA OLIVE LEAF DROPS 

OLEA OLIVE LEAF DROPS


I loooove Benefit! I've tried this Total Moisture Facial Cream before
and unfortunately this one is too heavy and greasy for my skin.
but POREfessional works very well on my combination skin.
I've got the same sample from MYER last month 
and I'm happy to get another free 7.5ml sample ;)


awe is completely NEW to me...never heard of the products before.
I'll try and do review later! 
The products is Aussie made and own which is always great to try 
and discover new Aussie brand.


Pure Fiji products are always smell divine!
I've got Orange Blossam Body Butter.
Smells so good (similar scent to toilet air spray.. lol)
Great rich butter that I need for this winter season.


FENDI Fragrance is my least favourite.
I'm not a fan of perfume samples especially satchel one.
Also, FENDI fragrance is too much for me...sorry!


Sally Hansen nail color pen(full size) Yay!
I wanted to try this product for long time!
This is easy to apply and super quick dry.
the shade is too pinky eventough the package says Red Chrome.
Now I know this one works great, I will definitely will try other colour!


OLEA Olive Leaf Drops... I guess Olive Leaf is really good but this drop
is not yummy...it is not disgusting but not nice either.


Over all, I'm pleased to receive these items in the box.
always fun to try new things ;)
