Sample Bar October Box

One of my favourite times of the month.  




So many awesome things!






Pure Fiji Hydrating Guava Body Lotion.
Full Size $49 (350ml).  Sample: $2.10 (15ml I guess, there was nothing listed on it).

Get it from www.purefiji.com, ring 0800 PUREFIJI or check out your beauty resorts and spas.

Pure Fiji is a pretty popular product range here.  Most of the About Face and Beauty facial salons stock it.  It smells awesome, and I can't wait to use it.






Couleur Caramel Cream Eyeshadow Munnar Green.
Full Size $29.30.

From www.couleur-caramel.co.nz

I'm sure I should love this more than I should.  But I don't. I was never a huge fan of cream shadows, and having oily skin just made it more hassle that it was worth most of the time.  

More than happy to pass this on to someone who would use it.






Youngblood Vixen Mini Lipstick.
Full Size $43.50 (4g).  Sample: $10.88 (1g).

From www.beautysense.co.nz

The perfect red lippy.  If I could make one complaint:  Its sticky to apply.  With use I guess the lipstick would get softer, but for now its ok.  It can live in my purse with the rest of the emergency going-out makeup.  





Rosehip by Essano - Gentle Foaming Cleanser.
Full Size $14.99 (140ml).  Sample: $6.42 (30ml x 2 bottles).

Get it from Countdown!  

Just in time!  I've been using the sebamed cleanser and I didn't really like it.  This stuff smells so good.  Can't wait to try it and see how it works.






Angel Orange Flower Shampoo and Hair Mask.
Full Size $39 (400ml each).  Sample: $ 1.56 each (8ml x 2 each).

Find your nearest stockist by emailing sales@phb.net.nz

I don't think I can praise Angel enough.  I love the conditioning spray.  I loved the shampoo and conditioner.

My hair isn't coloured, but its still going to be used :)







Dots Laundry Powder.
Full Size $6.99 (1kg - 22 washes).  Sample: $0.32 (1 wash).

Countdown, Pak n Save, New World and www.dotslaundry.com

How cute is this packaging!  This is gorgeous!  I just bought laundry powder, so I will save this for later.  Seems pretty economical.




Total cost for the box is $25 a month.  Value of this one: $52.14.  
Other than the shadow which I will gift, the rest of it is pretty awesome.

Get your own one from Sample Bar.

Give the eye shadow a try before you give it away, it's not really creamy, it dries very quickly and stays on!!

Be very careful trying the shadow - I tried mine today, and it burnt my eyes! I'm a performer, I'm used to cheap stage makeup and eyelash glue getting in my eyes, and also my more expensive personal makeup (both drugstore and vegan/mineral from Etsy etc), and this stuff was awful! Bright red eyes for at least an hour after I'd managed to get it off - yeugh! (You did seem to get a better colour at least, mine was a lilacy pink which just doesn't suit me!)

The shadow just didn't do it for me to start with - smelt weird (not expired weird, just oily weird) and I don't really wear a lot of green.

I gave it away to a friend for her birthday along with the mascara from a previous box.
