Lust Have It JULLLLLLLYYYY!!!

I love getting boxes like this one - a full face of makeup!

Lets start with the face.  Because it's actually not too bad looking!

Eyeshadow, mascara, blush and lipstick all came from this bag.  The base was a Za powder.

The brush on the mascara was a little hard for me to work with personally, so it went on the lash line, and I tried to hide it with a smudge of the darker purple from the eyeshadow duo.  Didn't really work.

I like the blue mascara though!

(Gosh my nose looks huge in these photos!)

Onto the products!

GOSH Matt Duo Eyeshadow - 008 Dusty Purple
Full Size: $14.99

It's a pretty duo.  It's a little chalky but the colour payoff is ok.  I haven't tried it wet, but it might improve the colour intensity.

MPrincess Mineral Blush - Peach Fuzz
Full Size: $15.45 (1.2g)

Orange blush?  Shimmery orange blush?!

It's not too bad!

The shimmer acts as a nice highlight, and the orange actually blends out quite nicely to a pinkish finish.    On my hand I have it blended out (on the left) and applied roughly with my finger (on the right).

If you threw it over a base, it would make a great eyeshadow.

Teeez Cosmetics Desert Metals Mascara - Sapphire Nights
Full Size: $32.50

I've never used a coloured mascara before, so this intrigued me.  It's dark enough that I can totally get away with wearing it on a normal day-to-day basis.  It would look amazing with they grey-blue eyeliner from the previous box.

Jelly Pong Pong Lip Blush - Marshmellow Pink
Full Size: $15

A cool leaning blue-based pink.  Not really my colour - I think it looks a little too barbie on me.
It claims to be a stain, but it doesn't stain nearly as much as the other JPP lip blush that I got a while back.

I think if I was to sheer it out a little, or wear something darker mixed with it, I could pull it off a little better.

Essenzza Face Mask

Full Size: $4.99

This brand is amazing.  I love their wipes, I love their masks, and this one has a mask pattern printed on it, so you don't look quite as weird sitting there with a sheet of paper on your face.  

I tend to collect these up and save them for pamper nights with the girls, or the day after a big night out.

Total cost for the box: $19.95 Australian money.

Total value of this box: $82.93.

Considering I'll use every product, this is a great box.

Lust Have It: December!!

I had been delaying this post because we were missing a hand cream, and told it would arrive in the January box.

Well, Jan box is here, and no hand cream.

So here we go!

 Naobay Moisturising Peeling Brightening Facial Milk Scrub
Full Size: $27 (100ml)

Wow, they really tried to cram ALL of the words into this one, didn't they!

Things that say peeling always scare me.  Apparently the "peeling" is because of the lactose in the milk.
I haven't tried it.  I'm scared.

Not for sale.  Just for cuddles.

Be A Bombshell Eyeshadow Quad - Sydney

Full Size: $22

We were meant to get either "London" or "Shanghai".  I think I like these colours more!

The bronze and silver have some serious shine to them.

Swatches on bare skin in the order of the quad.  

The metallics have a great pop, but the two other colours are a little chalky.

Sorry for the shadow.  I used the four colours.  The brown in the crease, the white as a base, and the metallics in the inner and outer corners.  

I also used the chella highlighting stick under the brow.

I tried to use the darker brown colour as a liner by following the directions and putting the tip of my brush into water and then into the shadow, but when it was dry, it had a very pale chalky finish, so didn't really work as intended.

Used a plain black eyeliner instead.

I have very hooded eyes.

Essenzza Fuss Free Naturals
Micellar Mini Wipes
$2.25 (Is this a full size mini or just a sample?  I don't know.)

Micellar water is the "hit craze" in the makeup industry.  It gets your makeup off in one sweep, and it is meant to be gentle on skin.

I've tried two others before, and these wipes just don't like my eyes.  I feel the burn!
They seem to be way wetter and soapier than putting micellar water from a bottle onto a cotton pad.

90% of me LOVES this brand.  10% of me doesn't like that it stings my eyes.

Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil.
Full Size: $24.50

Not sure what it's made from, but it seems very very creamy.  Blends out nicely and doesn't feel sticky.

If you were really pale, it would totally work as a concealer.  If you're into contouring, it would work as a highlight for your contouring.

 Unblended and blended.

Click the image above to get $5 off your first box!  They're pretty good!


Total cost is usually $19.95 a month + shipping.
Without the hand cream, we're looking at $75.75 all up.  Thats a decent investment!


Thanks Lust Have It for providing me with boxes every month.  I'm loving them!
