Violet Box April

Finally a NEW subscription box!

This one comes all the way from Australia.

I'm sorry, I've lost the card for this one too.

BUT it did do what it said on the packet and was over the $60 value. 


Violet Box guarantees that each box is worth at LEAST $60.  We pay $29.95 per month for mostly full size products.

This is my first Violet box and it will NOT be my last!


On with the goods :)


Pretty box.  It's a magnetic closure with a purple ribbon tie.

A little bigger than a Sample Bar box, but smaller than a Goodie Box.





Bodyography mineral foundation in Amber.

This colour was far too dark for me, so if I can't re-sell it/pass it on, it'll be a very very expensive bronzer.  

Full size is $65.  Alone.  For this powder.  

If you want it, I'll consider offers. Email me or hit me up on facebook.






I have tried Avene before and loved it.  Happy to get this in my box.  
Can't remember the sample worth... $5 maybe?






This made me happy in the pants.  It's a lovely deep black mascara with a really gorgeous brush.  

And it comes with a refill.

It's also around $35.  






Lip gloss.  I think it was around $15.

I've had model co stuff before (an eyeliner that I gave away and a lip/cheek tint that prefers to tint my fingers instead of my lips).  

This lip gloss is very sheer, has a slight sweet scent/taste and is rather sticky.  Loving the mirror on the side though.  You could chuck this in your bag and apply ALL your makeup with the mirror.





I'm sure I've mentioned how much bronzing stuff we've gotten in the past from various boxes.  

It smells good, and it will probably do what it says on the box.  

Because we're coming into winter, I am not sure if I'll get to use it this season, but it can be added the collection and I'll have brown legs all summer!





MOR hand creams smell like fairy farts and unicorn sneezes.  Or something like that.

They are decadently MORish (see what I did there?) and these little samples are just not enough for me.  After getting full size of the Lychee and Marshmellow hand creams from the other two boxes, these two little samples left me longing.  They are both so amazing.

If you had to choose one:  Black current iris.



3 outta 6 items were full size, and with high values.  




YAY!!

Big 'ups' to Violet Box making its way to NZ.
