Lust have it! Box – January 2013

Today I received my third monthly Lust Have It! box. Previous boxes have been of varying quality, so I was interested to see what I got this time.

These are the items I received in my January box:

1. Nude by Nature BB 5-in-1 Miracle Cream. I received mine in the colour Medium.

I haven’t tried any BB creams yet, although apparently they are the ‘big thing’ in beauty at the moment. The 50mL tube is a great size to be able to work out whether it is a suitable product  for me (rather than the single use sachet that I received in my January Bellabox). Medium seems to be the perfect colour for me.

2. Face of Australia Bronzing Loose Powder & 3. Lust have it! Kabuki Brush

I’ve never really been into bronzing powders (or creams) but I’m happy to give this a try.

4. GKMBJ Lactic Hydrating Shampoo & Fortifying Honey Creme

I haven’t tried this brand before, so I look forward to giving it a go. I have been a bit poor for a number of years so I have been using cheap supermarket shampoo and conditioners which aren’t exactly the best for my hair. I would love to start using hair products that are better for my hair so hoping that these samples will work for me. Hopefully I can get more than one use out of them to get a good idea of the product.

5. Amuse Nail Lacquer

The colour I received is Turquose Ink. I quite like the colour, but I found that one coat is a bit transparent so you need to apply at least 2 or 3 coats to get good coverage. I found the final result is a bit streaky. Apparently the RRP of this is $13.95 – I would have hoped for better results from a nail polish of this price range.

Overall I am really happy with the contents of this box. I also like the pretty little collectible box it is now packaged in (last month’s plain box was a bit of a letdown) and as much as the previous cosmetic purses were useful, you only need so many of them.

I hope to review some of these products shortly.

Cheers and have a great Australia Day!
