ALLURE

OCTOBER 2017

There are supposedly 6 items in October’s box, I missed out an item in the pic which is the Kat Von D Saint perfume. There are a few things that i know I won’t be able to use which is the 2 hair products. I really do hope i cease getting hair products which i can never use. 

1.Korres Wild rose Advanced brightening sleeping facial.

As described by the web ; A brightening night cream infused with wild rose oil that evens out skin tone, repairs fine lines, moisturizes, heals, and softens skin. Obviously, this smells strongly of rose, so if you’re not a fan please steer clear. I am not sensitive however even the scent gets to me sometimes. I do like creams that promises magic overnight, however i do not see much of a difference the next day.

2.Eau Thermale Avene A-Oxitive Antioxidant Protection.

This fast absorbing serum is awesome! This works super well before makeup application and before moisturiser. It absorbs into the skin without any stickiness or grease and refreshes the skin from inside. I would definitely repurchase this again and incorporate into my usual skincare routine.

3.Style Pureology Hydrate Air Dry Cream.

Description from the web ; this leave-in cream and lightweight styler for dry hair from Pureology shortens drying time and controls frizz. This product would be great for you if you have dry hair, it certainly would be something I’d appreciate to have when it comes to taming frizz in my hair. The product is also 100% vegan.

4.Beauty for real I-line 24-7 eyeliner in Whisky.

For once I appreciate receiving an eyeliner that is in a different colour other than black! Whisky is a deep chocolate brown with hints of gold shimmer that is absolutely gorgeous to replace black liner (if you’re afraid to venture into bolder colours). Looks nice on the top and also lower lashline. Formula glides smoothly, not stiff and doesn’t drag.

5.Pantene Foam conditioner.

This comes in a protective waterproof bag to prevent the product from accidental spilling. I’m not quite a fan of Pantene products since years ago but I would still be willing to try new products released. I will probably try this on my toddler and see how it works for her always clumpy curly hair. 

6.Kat Von D saint eau de parfum.

This mini size bottle lasts me for quite a long while eventho i use it everyday to work. 

Top notes:Jasmine and Tiaré flower.

Middle notes:Mandarin, caramel, and sparkling Mirabelle plum.

Base notes:Vanilla, sandalwood, and creamy musk. 

I’ve not tried ‘sinner’ yet to compare to ‘saint’, but at the moment this is my go to perfume and once i run out, it will most likely be the one im going back to. Plus i love KVD!!

Well this month’s box was a bit of a dud for me with only the Avene product and the KVD perfume giving me life, the Whisky eyeliner gave me some hope. But i really didn’t like receiving 2 hair products in a box. I much rather take only 1 hair product or have the option to choose.
