The Lilac 1st Concept Box - Decleor

Assallamualaikum,

Sometime in July, The Lilac Box Team started raving about their first ever concept box. I basically didn't know what brand was it, but since the item worth in the box is way more than the subscription fee which was RM59.90 if i'm not wrong, i decided to stalk their FB page, and waited for the time the box is up for released.

Alhamdulillah I managed to purchased it, and guess what they actually set a few weekend dates which somehow happens to be in the month of Ramadhan for the unravelling of the box. If we're not able to make it for any of the dates, they will post the boxes over to us, which was what happen to mine, as i wasn't able to go for it due to my nausea and headaches.

So let's inspect what's inside the box.



This is how it looks like when you open the box, loved the gold see through mesh paper, and was invited with a pleasant smell once the box was open.


A small note from The Lilac Box Team.


Decleor Aroma Cleanse Fresh Matifying Lotion (10ml)
Decleor Aroma Cleanse Fresh Purifying Gel (10ml).



Decleor Aroma Cleanse Tonifying Lotion (75ml)

This refreshing lotion revives your skin and your complexion's natural glow.

Decleor Aroma Cleanse Cleansing Milk Face & Eyes (75ml)

Decleor Aromaessence Neroli - Essential Serum (5ml)
Decleor Aromaessence Rose D'Orient Soothing Serum (1ml)

Softens and Soothes the skin, reduces feelings of discomfort and acts like a true effectiveness booster.

I can't really review on all the products that are in this box, as i still have other skincare to finish, so In Shaa Allah i'll give it a try sometime soon. ;)

Bag Of Love - 1st Special Edition


Assallamualaikum,

So guess what i subscribed The Special Edition Bag from Bag of Love. This was their first ever special edition bag, and guess what it's pack with L'oreal, Maybelline and Timeless Truth products. 

So let's start ^_^


The ever cute special edition bag with Mimi's avatar, the bag was actually a collaboration between Bag Of Love and Only Beauty. As you can see the 2 initials in the balloons.


Timeless Truth Collagen Bio Cellulose Mask - RM25 per pc.

As most of you are aware i'm one of TTMask biggest fan, i've always love getting TT Mask in the beauty box/ bags and lucky me, i receive this in time when my TT Mask was running out.



L'Oreal Paris White Perfect Pearl Brush-on Whitening Foundation Essence - Retailing at RM79.90

I've actually received the full size product, and yet to give it a try as i still have my BRTC Jasmine Water BB Cream. Alhamdulillah the tone of the foundation does match with my skin tone so In Shaa Allah once my BB Cream is finished, i will definitely give this a try.







Maybelline Color Sensation Lipstick (015)- Retailing RM 29.90

Got this in full size too as you can see, but the tone is a little bright for me. Haven't tried it on the lips as at yet, but In Shaa Allah once my current lipstick has finished will give this a try.




L'oreal Paris Open Eyes Pro - Retailing at RM53.90

Well the one i received was more to a green shade, but it looks a little smokey which i like. They even have like a small step by step at the back of the packaging, but wasn't able to take a snap shot of it.


Maybelline AngelFit Brighten Up Blush (Wooden Rose) - RM29.90

Was really happy to receive this item too, though the tone of the blush looks a little light, but i think it should suit my skin tone. This would be the next blusher once my current blusher finishes.

All in all i was really happy with the items in the bag, as the subscription fee for this bag was RM 49.90 or 59.90 i can't really remember. But if you add up every single product that i've just mentioned, it definitely cost more than the bag, so don't you think it's a steal, plus it was all full size? ^_^ Glad that i signed up for the subscription.

Bag Of Love for June - Summer

Assallamualaikum, so as i mentioned in the previous post i'll be bombarding you ladies with all the beauty boxes and bags that i've been subscribing for the past 3 months. Thanks to the 1st trimester i didn't have the mood to blog about it. Now that the mood is back even though with the tummy bulging out now, i'm still able to do so. So let's start.

So as you all know from the title, this is the June Bag Of Love theme Summer if i'm not wrong. As you can see Mimi's avatar on the intro card is really cute with bikini and Hawaiian beach theme.



The items that were stuffed in the bag.


The intro card with product description and a cute avatar of Mimi.


So here's the first products which is Cremorlab Hydration Trial Set
(Full size products range from RM69 - RM 169)
- Aqua Essence Water Fluid (3ml)
- Fresh Water Gel (3ml)
- Essence Tonic (8ml)
-Sun Protective (3ml)

Well since it's travel size i'm planning to keep and use it only when i'm traveling since it's small and compact and light weight. ;)



Definite Foundation Brush - Full Size - RM 118

To help with the application of foundation or BB cream so that it'll last longer. Or it could also be used to blend from centre of the face and outwards.

This is definitely a steal, with the subscription of only RM39.90 a month, you end up getting something that totally cost more than the subscription... weeee....





Vaseline Healthy WHite SPF24/PA++ - Full Size - RM15.90

Heart this item, b'coz it's a full size. Smell is pleasant not overpowering, and texture is just right. I've never use any of Vaseline products before, even though it's a trusted brand since mom's time, but somehow never manage to purchase any of their product. Now that i have the chance to try it out, i might give it a go, you're not only moisturizing your skin but at the same time protecting your skin from the harsh UV Rays.



Clairol Professional Color Radiance Shampoo (50ml) - Retailing at RM43 for 250ml
Clairol Visible Repair Intensive Mask (30ml) - Retailing at RM69 for 200ml

I've used both this product till the last drop. I actually loved the scent of both product and it actually left my hair feeling smooth and moisturize. Say bye, bye to dry frizzy hair.



Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Honeysuckle Edt Spray - Retailing at RM185 for 100ml.

I've actually used the green tea perfume before and this scent was almost the same just a little sweeter probably due to the honeysuckle scent. I've been loving the scent ever since


Vouchers:-

1. Free 1 Color Radiance Shampoo 250ml (worth RM43) with purchase of 1 Clairol Professional Color Service
2. RM 50 Shopping Voucher from Seqoci
3. Complimentary Session of Body Perfects Photothermolysis Hair Removal Therapy (1hr) worth RM 380

Mivva Box for July - My Pamper Kit


Assallamualaikum, i know this is a rather late post from me. Trust me pregnancy hasn't been easy during the 1st trimester, and it somehow made me out of mood to blog for a while. So now that i'm in the 2nd trimester, thing's are more easy - no more nausea, headache and etc. So be ready as i'll be storming you ladies with loads of blogs/reviews on my subscription with beauty boxes & bags.

So as you all know this will be a short review on Mivva Beauty Box for July. Their theme for July was My Pamper Kit, so roughly everything that was in it are related to pampering your body, face etc.









Unico Eye Lip Enriched Cream, retailing at RM 98.80 for a 15ml bottle. 

Function:

Enhances the biological function of the lymphatic system, strengthening the cell metabolism by eliminating eye bags, dark eye circles, bulging, puffiness and fine lines. Resulting in firmer and brighter skin around the eyes.

I've been using this product since the day i received it, results are not that obvious but it definitely was enriching for the eyes. The smell was pleasant and it reminded me of Aupres Leave on Night Mask, not forgetting the texture is really light weight which is good. Anyway been using it very diligently especially before i sleep and i only use a small amount, and that's why it has last me for almost 2 months.... :D



Somang Danahan Bonyeon Intensive Moisturizing Skin Toner and Emulsion
Skin Toner - RM 139.90 for 160ml / Emulsion - RM 139.90 for 160ml

The oriental herbal moisturizing toner adds ample moisture to dry skin and keeps skin highly moisturize and emulsion that creates a water cover to keep the skin feeling soft.




Beautymate Purifying & Hydrating Nano Toner
Retailing at RM 49.90 for 120ml

The toner actually helps to hydrate the skin and facilitate the metabolism by preparing it for fast absorption of the lotion. It's formulated to brighten up the skin tone and balance the PH value, to make the skin feeling soft and smooth. At the same time increasing the moisture balance in cuticle up to 15 hours or more.

Love, love, love this product. Was really surprise when i received it in full size, only started using it once my Eucerin Toner was finish. So basically it's been a month and a half since i used it, and it's been really easy on the skin, no alcohol smell and no burning sensation like how some other toners are like. Definitely a good buy.



Elianto Ardour Shadow - Ballet Pink
Retailing at RM 8 for 2g

Glides easily on the eyes and provides soft and smooth texture for a matte finish. Also available in 15 other shades.

Well pink eye shadow is really not my thing, as i only love natural/brown/smokey eyes shadow. Coloured eye shadow used to be something for me as i used to perform on stage, but now i have to give it a pass, as i only used eye shadow when there's functions and also when i have the mood to apply it.


Re-Gen Oil
Retailing at  RM 29.90 for 75ml / RM 45.91 for 125ml

It contains an active ingredient called PCL Liquid which help promote the skin regeneration. Rich in vitamin A and E, it helps fight skin ageing by reducing the oxidants in the skin.

So since i knew i was expecting, this oil totally helped me like how Bio-oil used too. We received like 4 sachets of 3ml oil and the smell was pleasant and not overpowering which was good. At the same time it also moisturize the tummy and doesn't leave a greasy feeling.



Pumic Stone which was a little token from MIVVA. It's still currently wrap in the plastic, must find the time to scrub the heels.



So this is a bonus from MIVVA, i actually volunteered to take up the 5 day TT Mask challenge and Alhamdulillah i was one of the chosen ones out of the 20 they wanted. So we had to take a before picture and an after picture which is 5 days later. 

The initial masked that we were supposed to receive were the swallow mask, which functions to brighten and whiten the skin but MIVVA was nice enough to upgrade it to the TT Snow Lotus, which cost RM 25 per masked. In total we had 5 masked which were supposed to put on for 5 consecutive days, and that automatically totals up to RM 100 for all 5 sheets.

So i decided to wear it 5 nights in a row, before i sleep. Sometimes i just doze off, b'coz we're suppose to leave it for 20 minutes. Anyway after 5 days i really saw the results, eye bags were less darker, complexion looks much brighter and smoother. I wish i could share the before and after pictures, but too shy to share it leh...

Conclusion is i love TT Mask, I actually knew this mask way before from a previous beauty box, and i've never been disappointed with their mask ever since. Every single of their mask fits the face perfectly and due to the material they used, the mask actually soaks up the solution, and it sometimes last even more than the prescribed 20 minutes. Even after removing the mask, you can basically massage whatever solution/serum that was left on the mask. Not forgetting the affordable price too, as their mask range from RM8 - RM 25 per sheet, which is definitely a steal.
