JUNE 2017

#083

My box variation received for June is box #083. Lets dig in! (You can find your box variation from viewing your order detail in your sephora account, its the last 3 digit of the item number.)

The box i received for June did not look as exciting as the previous boxes I've got nor did i get most that I've seen from the spoilers. I was however excited to see kat von d and tarte in the box.

1. Kat von d everlasting liquid lipstick in K-dub.

This is a very out of the ordinary loud purple magenta lipstick. It reminds me very much of a slightly darker version of Colourpop's Lychee ultra matte lip. But i wish i got the other colour I've seen in the spoilers, i think it was lovesick. Because the red seems much more wearable than a purple. However, formula is consistent like the regular line, dries matte as usual. Sample size has the regular doe foot applicator too.

2. Tarte guard tinted moisturizer with spf 20.

This is a tinted moisturizer from tarte and its the first time that I've heard of tarte having a moisturizer line. This isnt too thick and has a light bb cream kind of texture. The tint helps blend the moisturizer to my skin tone better, and this helps to prep my skin before foundation as it has spf 20 to protect from uv rays. This is an excellent light moisturizer for going out to the beach on a very sunny day if you intend to still wear some makeup on. 

3. Dr dennis gross Alpha Beta Glow pad- self tanner for face.

Why sephora, why this. I have light-med skin with slight olive undertones and i am asian, i think I'd end up looking swarthy if i decide to tan myself, and it isn't really a trend here to self tan. This was a dud for me as i found absolutely no use for it.

4. Bumble & bumble - bb dont blow it fine (h)airstyler.

I have a short pixie hair cut, altho at this state i usually just wash and go. But sometimes i do add product to style it. This, doesn't really do anything much for the hold or styling wise. And on a sidenote, i read that this tested on animals. Im giving that a pass.

5. Briogio curl charisma.

My girl has thin curly hair, i use this on hair to tame the curl and give a bit more of definition, it looks good and gives better defined hair texture than her wispy curls.

6. Derek lam 10 crosby - blackout eau de parfum.

One of the perfume samples i could not tolerate was this. It is so strong and spicy that it reminds me of a guy's perfume. And it was so overpowering as well. Ill skip this one thanks.

So in conclusion, this months's box wasnt that helpful for me. It was full of hair products which i dont really seem to be interested in with short hair and also alot of misses with the lipstick shade and the useless tanner pads. The only takout that im using more of from this box is the tarte moisturizer and the curl charisma leave in.
