The Parcel Spring Edit!!!

Hey Readers,
I hope this post finds you well!! Today I have just picked up the latest edition of Marie Claire's The Parcel from the post office. This is the spring edition for 2016 and I have to say I was so excited to open this box when I got it and I wasn't disappointed. There hasn't been an edition yet that I have said oh wow, oh wow when pulling products out of a box!!! 
So lets get to it!!!


  
St Tropez Self Tan Classic Bronzing Mousse received a 50ml deluxe sample full size is 240ml
and St Tropez Applicator Mitt
Despite the fact that I don't fake tan as a general rule this was one of my first wow's as I unpacked this box!! Not only did we receive a deluxe sample of their classic bronzing mousse that with its new formula promises a long lasting (up to 10 days), quick drying, nice smelling streak free tan. We also received the applicator mitt to apply it with!! I feel this is pretty generous and a great idea when it comes to including a fake tan in a beauty box!!!



C-Lab&Co Coffee and Coconut Scrub received a 100g full size
Not only is this a really a version of those much talked about coffee scrubs this one from C-Lab&Co has a 100% natural formula. This scrub targets cellulite, stretch marks and skin imperfections!! While I don't have either of the first two I am really really interested to try this one as I have never tried a coffee scrub before and have been thinking for a while I wanted to give these a try!!



The Body Shop Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask received a 5ml sample full size is 75ml
While I am not usually a mask girl I am really interested to try this one. A combination of Himalayan charcoal and green tea leaves this cleanses, exfoliates and detoxifies. I always like body shop products so happy to give this a go. 



MOR Mon Amie Luminous Body Milk received an 80ml full size
The card that came with the box says that this product should be the Adele scent of this body milk however I have received the Cecilia scent. Regardless of the scent all the body milks in this range infused with shea butter, jojoba and sweet almond and the scent Cecilia is a Sweet Clementine and Cassis with floral notes of Wild Orchids and Orange Blossoms. This comes in spray packaging which with the warmer months around the corner certainly makes is more inviting to pick up and easy to apply.



Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDT recieved a 5ml full size is 50ml
This fragrance combines musk, florals and a hint of amber a new scent for the warmer months. Not sure if I am excited by this as yet I do like the idea of a new perfume to try but as I have a cold at the moment I can't really smell it so I am unsure if  its the scent for me.



Sunsense Sensitive Invisible SPF 50+ received a 10g sample full size is 75g
This is the newest sunscreen for Sunsense which has been formulated with zinc oxide to deliver maximum sun protection and prevent premature skin ageing. Perfect timing for a sunscreen sample to be included in a beauty box I am going away for the weekend next month so this will be good for the sand, surf and sun!!! 



Nude by Nature Natural Mineral Cover shade Medium received a 2g deluxe sample full size is 15g.
This loose mineral foundation offers buildable coverage with SPF 15. This foundation covers redness, pigmentation, conceals large pores even out complexion. I already have tried and used this foundation on and off for a long while and I have preferred the pressed version for my travel but I am doing my makeup at home more these days so going back to loose version will be easier!!! 



Essano Argan Oil of Morocco received the shampoo and conditioner duo pack 50ml full size.
This shampoo and conditioner duo offers haircare infused with Moroccan oil to help dry and damaged hair shampoo is deep cleaning and the conditioner is nourishing!!  I really enjoy moroccan oil based shampoos and have not tried this brand before so very happy to have received this travel duo to try. 



Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi Purpose Dry Oil received a 10ml deluxe sample full size is 50ml. 
This multi purpose oil can be used on the face, body and hair. It nourish, repair and soften the skin this ultra concentrated oil contains a blend of macadamia, sweet  almond oil and Vitamin E. I have received a sample of this in a beauty box previously so I can already tell you that it is good it also is on the more expensive side for me so loving a new sample!!!



Maybelline New York The Nudes Palette received One
Last but not least is this eye shadow palette from Maybelline. 12 pans of wearable nude shadows that are a mix of matte, shimmer giving you the ability to create a wearable work look to a night time smokey eye. There was definitely an WOW!! from me when I saw this included not only is it makeup!! its also an entire palette!! I am so used to receiving a quad or a single shadow I was blown away by this inclusion. Cannot wait to give it a try!!



So that ends this edition of the Parcel. As I said at the begging of this post this parcel edition has really wowed me and makes me very happy that I stay subscribed this really is a value for money box. I love the variety of products, samples that are decent size as well as lots of full sized items and quality products both pharmacy (drug store) and high end!! Cannot wait to try most of the products included. Until next time happy reading and happy shopping.
