Hope this post finds you well!! Well we find ourselves another month receiving another LHI box. Yep its gone quick to say the least and there's lots to talk about so lets get started!!!
Nude by Nature Natural Tinted Mineral Moisturiser
Have really enjoyed this product from LHI this month. I have used it mainly on weekends for a lighter makeup option and while it doesn't provide a lot of coverage to the skin it does even out skin tone quite well. It also pairs extremely well with a pressed powder or mineral makeup buffed in over the top. The added extra of sunscreen has also been a bonus.
Knotties.
As a single hair band these do not hold my hair that well it is too long and heavy but added to the end of a plait or braid I have really enjoyed a bit of colour and print over my usual boring plain old hair bands.
ColourSmash Hair Shadow
Did not try this product out during the month as I said in my original post I am not very experimental with my hair am thinking that this one will most likely be re gifted to a better home.
Schwarzkopf Extra Care Volume Powder
Initially this product scared me a little!! Being a powder I had visions of ending up looking like I had white dust in my hair post sanding a wall!!! Thankfully it does blend into the hair easily and does give great volume it just takes a little bit of extra time to use and as I don't have a lot of time in the mornings to style my hair it didn't get a lot of love this month.
Swisse Hand Cream
As I had already been using a tube of this one I gave my mum the tube I had received in last months box. Her hands have been terribly dry and rough as well as a little sore post being in water. She has really enjoyed using it so much so she went out and bought the full size version. The tube is kept in her handbag and the large pump pack at home. I do love this moisturiser it can be used all over not just on the hands it sinks in quickly doesn't leave your hands greasy and is long lasting.
Health Essentials zNano Active Gold Eye Patches
Another product that didn't get a lot of love this month!!! I know I said I would try these ones but myself and anti wrinkle products just don't seem to mix!!! I put the packet away in my storage draw and they have stayed there all month sorry guys!! I will try harder in the future to give these kind of products a try and be able to give a proper review.
California Mango Mango and Jojoba hand and body Lotion
I still have not used this one as I put it into my wet pack for travelling, I was meant to be going away this month but that has been rescheduled to October!!! Will give a review when I have used it later in the year!!!
This months box comes with the theme of Celebration at the time of its arrival I was a little clueless as to what we were celebrating. As the product description card did not give much away I had to do a bit of research. Which informed me that LHI have turned 2!!! So Happy 2nd Birthday LHI!!! This celebration box really is like we have received a present and overall I am impressed!!!.
Revlon PhotoReady Skinlights face Illuminator in the shade 200 Pink Light recieved a 30ml full size.
Was surprised to see this included in the box. I have walked past these many a time but could not justify the price tag!! I am really interested to give this a go particularly under my makeup for an overall glow but also as a general cheek highlight. Swatched lightly I can see a little bit of product goes a long way and it is quite reflective so am interested to see if the result its subtle glow or is a little more intense!!!!
Revlon Nearly Naked Makeup received four samples in various shades full size is 30ml.
Initially I have to say I was disappointed to only receive a sample card with such small amounts of product and have that included as a product on the card to me this should just be an added bonus sample. Having said that I have been really wanting to try this one but again have held back due to price point. I also know that often there is a lot of unhappiness when ladies don't get the right shade of these products in a box and I guess a choice of four varying shades allows you to try see if you can find a close match and if you suit the foundation before buying a full size!!! Looking at the packaging I feel I will be either a natural or true beige but will give a try and see!!!
KMS CaliforniaFree Shape Shampoo and Conditioner received a 12ml conditioner sample full size is 250ml
These products are said to increase manageability and pliability of hair in preparation for heat styling!! After reading the product card I assumed that I should have received a sample of both the shampoo and conditioner but after looking at other ladies blogs and instagram it seems we all only got one!! Will still try with my usual shampoo and see how it goes.
KMS California Add Volume Volumising Spray received a 30ml sample full size is 200ml.
This spray is said to increase volume and provide fullness especially for super fine hair!! That I have so am excited to give this a try!! Being a spray I am hoping it is quick and easy to use!!!
Sinfulcolours Sinfulcolours Nail Enamel in the shade 395 Folly received a 15ml full size bottle.
These polishes are said to be long wearing and chip resistant. Folly is a bright pink glossy polish that I think will get a lot of wear on my toes when the days get a little warmer at the moment I am finding it a little bright on my fingernails!!!
Lush Skin's Shangri La Facial Moisturiser received a 10g deluxe sample full size is 45g
The description states that this is a supreme moisturiser that will make your skin feel like its in heaven!!! Cannot wait to try and given its thickness and richness it will most likely become my new night cream.
La Roche Posay Thermal spring water recieved a 50ml full size is 300ml
This is a thermal spring water spray that soothes the skin as well as preventing skin ageing as well as being a natural anti oxidant. Not a huge user of these products but will give it a try!!!
La Roche Posay LIPIKAR Balm recieved a 15ml sample full size is 400ml.
This is a lipid replenishing body balm that offer 24 hour anti irritation and anti scratch. Not sure about needing an anti scratch/itch cream but I will give a try and see what its like.
OK so that is all for my present from LHI this month. I have to say I love birthdays and I am really excited by all the products included. I cannot wait to start using everything and I will share my thoughts with you next month. Until then happy reading happy shopping.
Ever.
I was really impressed with my LHI box, I can't wait to dig into all the product ^_^
