Since it's a grab bag, I'm assuming that not every box will contain the same items. The shipping was free, and I was really impressed by how quickly it arrived. I ordered it on the 10th, it shipped on the 11th, and it arrived today on the 13th. I think that's the fastest I've ever received any box!
The box did not come with an informational card, but I'll do my best to describe each item.
- Montagne Jeunesse Aloe Vera Face Spa Mask - I've used a lot of Montagne Jeunesse masks in the past and I really like them. This one is a paper mask, and while I prefer ones that aren't on paper I will still use this one. It contains aloe vera and green tea to soothe and cleanse the skin.
- Vapour Organics Vernissage 3-Free Nail Lacquer in Scandal - I love Vapour Organics, they're one of my favorite brands, but I do not need any more red nail polishes! At first I thought this was a skincare item because I didn't realize Vapour made polishes, but when I saw the name "Scandal" I knew before I even opened it that it was going to be red. I'm sure it's got a great formula, but I won't be using it because I posted it up for swap as new and unused.
- Astara Biogenic Skincare Antioxidant Infusion - I couldn't find an exact product page for this, but it appears to be a moisturizer that soothes the skin. The consistency looks kind of thick, so I might try this as a night cream.
- LaLicious Vanilla Body Butter - This one is nice and self-explanatory. I love body butters, I love vanilla, but I don't love the packaging of this. At least it's small enough that I can use it all up in one or two uses.
- Acure Organics Cell Stimulating Body Wash - Acure Organics is another one of my favorite brands, but I already have a bottle of this so I posted this for swap as well. It's vegan, paraben-, sulfate-, cruelty-, and gluten-free, and has no synthetic fragrance.
- NYX Roll on Shimmer in Pink - This is a little bit too bright for me so I also posted it up for swap. It's a shimmer that can be used on the eyes or body.
- Juara Candlenut Body Creme - I've never used any products from Juara before so I'm excited to try this. I've also never heard of candlenut oil before, but according to the back of the package it is known for its high content of essential fatty acids (therefore, great for moisturizing).
- Ren Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask - I had a sample of this a while ago but I never used it (I ended up swapping it), but I think I'll keep this one and give it a try. It's an exfoliating mask that, if I remember correctly, is quite expensive full-sized.
Bottom Line: I've very happy with this grab bag and I'm glad it only cost me $16. I think I still would have been satisfied if I paid the full $20, but it wouldn't have felt worth it for any more than that. You can still purchase one of these (and other collections) at the Total Beauty site, and remember to use coupon SAVE20 for $4 off! You can also get two for $30 using code 2FOR30.

Seems like a pretty good haul! I'd also never heard of candlenut oil prior to seeing Juara ... funny name though. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha yeah, it sounds like something you shouldn't put on your skin but I'm interested to try it.
