Anniversary October My Envy Box Review

Anniversary October My Envy Box Review

If you guys don’t know what is My Envy Box yet, go HERE.

So My Envy Box completed one year and we have an anniversary box this month. Its curated by Vogue India in association with their Vogue Empower project.

Anniversary October My Envy Box Review curated vy Vogue India, Estee Lauder, Clinique, H2O+,  Sebastian 9, Skin Yoga,Tatouage Gold Tattoo

Check out my previous months’ boxes:

MRP: Rs.850/-

Its a gold colored box this time for the anniversary month. I love the red symbol embossing on the gold and the new compact size boxes since last month.

What I got in my box:

 

  • Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover 5ml- Rs.1950/- for 125ml- Vogue Beauty Award Winner 2014. This is a good sample size.
  • SkinYoga Sandalwood Saffron Face Mask 5.67g small vial bottle- Rs.1395/- for 50g
  • Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum– 1.5ml x 2- Rs.5200/- for 30ml
  • Sebastian Potion 9 10ml- Rs.1450/- for 150ml
  • H2O+ Sea Salt Hydrating Body Butter 30ml- Rs.1450/- for 250ml
  • Tatouage Ephemere gold string tattoo– Its a temporary tattoo created by Annelise Toraille

I also got the Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief card but did not get the sample. It was anyways a 1.5ml sachet.

I wish the Sebastian Potion 9 was 2 sachets and the Estee Lauder serum either a slightly bigger sample or more sachets. I am happy with the Clinique and H2O+ sample sizes and that tattoo looks super!

I did not get one sample but since it was a sachet, its fine. I wish that was a bigger size too!

The box also had L’Occitane Spa La Vie Credit coupon of Rs.1000/- and an Estee Lauder card to learn one of their 6 tricks and maybe get a sample (if available) at any of their counters. Would try to find an Estee Lauder counter and would update you guys.

Overall, there are 1-2 hits in the box this time. I was expecting much more. Perhaps even a surprise little piece of jewellery or something. Vogue could have added a magazine subscription or something on their behalf too!

May My Envy Box Review

May My Envy Box Review

Read about My Envy Box HERE and see my previous boxes of Jan, Feb, March and April.

Loved the pretty pink box..same as we had in April.

In this month’s box, I received..

  • Roberto Cavalli ‘Nero Assoluto’ EDT (A woody, floral fragrance-feminine,sensual and sophisticated. Loved it!)- 1.2ml
  • Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum– small ampoulle
  • Eminence Organics Tropical Vanilla Day Cream Sunscreen (SPF 32)- 3ml
  • H2O+ Targeted Hand & Nail Cream– 30ml
  • ZA True White Cleansing Foam– 5g

Ok, first of all, there were supposed to be makeup products in the previous box too and in this box too..none yet :/ Secondly, as I mentioned in my previous April box too, I am bored of this small sachet samples..except the H2O Hand and Nail Cream, none is decent sized. 2-3 ml stuff are not a good enough quantity to judge anything at all! Even if you like a product and would like to repurchase a bigger one, how would you judge if there is any change at all on your skin with a 2-3 ml product you used once!

Not very happy with the sample sizes except for the H2O one..the Roberto Cavalli perfume vial is good..smells amazing..totally me!

I feel My Envy Box should buck up now..and give us something good or exciting..its soon turning out to be one of those usual beauty boxes with 1-2ml samples. And definitely waiting for some good makeup things in the future boxes..atleast one item per month..since its being promised from the last 2 months..

Overall, again a mixed box..for me, only  2 products worked here,the perfume vial and H20 hand and nail cream..not very happy with the rest.

April My Envy Box Review

April My Envy Box Review

For those of you who don’t know what My Envy Box is..read HERE…and check out my Feb box HERE and March box HERE.

MRP: Rs.850/-

If you follow me on Instagram, you must have seen the pic of the products I got..

This time the box was a nice pink colored one..I loved it..always their boxes and packaging..though the cute pouch was missing this time..I guess coz 1-2 products were big in size..

There was also this 10% off coupon for the site www.monsoonandbeyond.com

Products I got:

  • Benefit Porefessional– 0.15 ml sachet
  • SkinYoga Almond Orange Face Scrub – 5.67g
  • Avene Sensitive White Whitening Essence -3ml
  • Za True White Day Cream– 5g
  • H2O+ Sea Moss Replenishing Body Wash– 60ml

Ok, so coming to the products..I only liked the SkinYoga and H2O+ samples..and I wanted to try out Za..so kinda that though 5g is too less..I am not a fan or endorser of Whitening products..so Avene Whitening Essence is not what I would really choose, if given an option..

And let me not talk about Benefit Porefessional..coz 0.15ml is too less for even one time use :/ Few boxes had Benefit Fake Up Concealer..and that was still a decent sample..I would have preferred if they would have sent some other brand’s deluxe sample rather than Benefit !

So the April box was a mixed bag..I liked only 2 products..I hope next month’s box has something better..I mean 0.15 or even 1-2 ml products should be avoided in my honest opinion ! ‘You know what I mean’ :p (Did you watch the Sonam Kapoor’s Koffee with Karan episode ? If not, go watch now 😀 )
