August 2015 My Envy Box Review & Discount Coupon

Hi guys,

Time for the beauty boxes of this month. Today I am unboxing and reviewing the July My Envy Box, I have also created a video for the same, so do check that out.

Read more about My Envy Box HERE and check out all the previous reviews HERE.

MRP: Rs.850/- (Available HERE)

This month’s packaging is different, the theme is ‘India Mon Amour‘ (which means ‘India My Love’ in French) and all the products are natural, herbal and organic. It is an oxblood red box with golden design on top depicting ancient India figures. August box is all about skin care and fragrance this month and something for the eyes.

It also has a separate card this time, apart from the product card, which has 5 ayurvedic skin care tips.

Forest Essentials details are missing and the 5th skin care tip is mentioned, a little goof up

Contents of my box:

  • Hedonista Oudh Frozen Ittar- Full size (Rs.1045/- for 20g)
  • Soultree Ayurvedic Kajal Pure Black- Full size (Rs.350/- for 3g)
  • Suganda Neem Green Tea Mask- Full size (Rs.900/- for 60g)
  • Forest Essentials Iced Pomegranate & Kerala Lime Body Mist- 50ml (Full size Rs.1475/- for 100ml)

I think by now you are convinced why this is the BEST MY ENVY BOX till date?! Well, the value of the four products in this box is Rs.3032/- and you are getting the box for Rs.850/- (Rs.722 using the below discount code :D)

Also coming to the products, I love everything in this box. The Hedonista Frozen Ittar is all natural and organic made with coconut oil and pure ittar. It is so convenient to carry and comes in this small jar. You need just a teeny weeny bit and the smell lasts for 7-8 hours minimum!!

I have got 2-3 small pimples and it is actually the perfect time to try out this Suganda Neem Green Tea Mask. It is in powder form and you can mix it with rose water or normal water and just apply it and wash off. I can’t wait to try this, have liked Suganda products untill now.

I wanted to try the Forest Essentials Iced Pomegranate & Kerala Lime Body Mist since a long time and I got it in this month’s box! Yay 😀 I absolutely love the smell and it is the best body mist I have tried, it just absorbs into the skin and leaves behind a refreshing smell. I have tried body mists from Bath & Body Works and Victoria’s Secret too, but nothing beats this Forest Essentials one!

Coming to the Soultree Kajal, I already have 2-3 of these including one colored. I find the colored ones a bit dry in texture and these black ones are nice but as usual smudge a lot. So not too keen on the Soultree Kajal, but a full sized product is always good.

The 4th product is an option between Forest Essentials Body Mist & SkinYoga scrub, now I would have liked both 😀 But anyway, not being greedy, I am in love with this month’s My Envy Box. There have never been 3 full sized products and one deluxe sized (which is actually HALF) sample ever any of their boxes.

Book you August My Envy Box now, you are getting much more than your value for money.

Buy the box HERE, also you can use the coupon code ‘NEWLOVEMAKEUP‘ during checkout to get extra 15% off, which would bring down the cost of the box to Rs.722/-! I love you too :p

Did you like the August My Envy Box? You got Forest Essentials or Skin Yoga as 4th one? Do let me know in the comments below.

Lakme Limited Edition Absolute Pop Tints Lip Tint Pink Sorbet Review, Swatches, FOTD
I had mentioned about the launch of Lakme Limited Edition Absolute Pop Tints Collection HERE. The colors are all summery and fresh and with a neon touch..

What the Company claims: Lakme Absolute Lip Tints include 8 pop shades. These thick creamy pencils deliver rich color and unbelievable shine in just a stroke.

Tip:
This is the best collection for the ones who want to look extra special this summer.

Why to choose Lakmé Absolute Lip Tints?
Rich color delivery
Unique 8 Pop Shades
Limited edition collection

Shades:

Pink Sorbet, Candy Kiss, Peach Please, Orange Tease, Berry Pink, Plum Rush, Grape Hint, Wine Punch

MRP: Rs.800/- for 2g

It comes in a black swivel packaging with a plastic cap…and limited edition engraved on it..and the shade name behind..I did not like the packaging much..the plastic cap is fragile..and cannot even identify the shades if you have more..

Its quite creamy..but not too balmy kinds..thick enough..but needs a few swipes to cover up pigmented lips well. It does not have any particular smell or taste..but does not glide well on dry lips..

It takes some time to settle on the lips..and within half an hour or so..its like settled well all over with a glossy sheen..the glossiness goes away in a hour or so..but lips feel moisturised and comfortable..and the stain stays for 3-4 hours..

Pink Sorbet is a light wearable candy pink with some shimmer..not too neonish or bright..its a fun summery shade..the shimmer is hardly visible..it looks frosty in the hand swatch but quiet wearable on lips..I quite like the shade..

T: 2 swipes, B: 1 swipe

These are less balmy but more pigmented than the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Balm Stains

Here is it on me..sorry for the flash..it got too dark by the time I clicked this pic :/

Pros:

1. Quite pigmented.
2. Comfortable on lips.
3. Stain stays for 3-4 hours..after the glossiness and color starts fading.
4. All bright pinks and oranges..neon colors..good for the young crowd.
5. Does not bleed.
6. Travel friendly..it does not mess up in the bag..as its not too balmy and soft kinds.
7. Settles to a smoother finish after half an hour..

Cons:

1. Does not glide well on dry lips.
2. Expensive..if the colors were targeted for the young crowd..the pricing should have been lower too..Revlon is 200 bucks lesser and offers 0.7g more.
3. I expected it to stay even longer.
4. Packaging is not good.
5. Limited Edition.

Overall these are nice..pigmented and glossy and has fun summery shades..but I would have definitely preferred a lesser price..and these are limited edition..so if you have a favorite shade..go grab it now..I am not sure if I would repurchase..but you can have one in your collection..
