November 2016 My Envy Box Review, Unboxing & 20% Off Discount Code
Hi guys,
So I just got my November My Envy Box and it is so good, that I had to share it immediately!
First of, this box is beautiful! The summery pastel floral colors and design is so, so pretty! The theme for this month is ‘Handmade’, so all the products are natural and organic i.e. chemical free
Neemli Naturals Shea Butter Body Polish/Scrub -Full size (Rs.475/- for 25g)
Aerth Hair Protein Pack- Full size (Rs.275/- for 150g)
Vert Lip Scrub- Full size (Rs.450/- for 10g)
The Green Meadow Lip Butter – Full size (Rs.400/- for 15ml)
Fuschia Verve Face Mask – Full size (Rs.450/- for 100g)
We have all 5 full sized products in this month’s My Envy Box! This has to be one of my favourite My Envy Boxes in a very long time!
Not only that, all products i.e. the lip butter, lip scrub, body scrub are perfect for the current winter season. My lips are dry as a desert currently and I am only surviving on lip scrubs and lip balms! So I am glad I got those two. Plus a good body scrub is always welcome to exfoliate those dead skin cells on the body.
Hair Protein Pack also sounds nice, this one has fenugreek, Bengal gram and all things good! Definitely trying this soon!
And last but not the least, Kiwi Asparagus Face Pack! I have never tried this combination but kiwi is super rich in Vitamin C, so I am definitely most excited to try this one.
I am super happy with this month’s My Envy Box, all products total up to Rs.2050/- and I have a 20% off discount coupon for you guys. I got a card in the box in which I found this discount coupon, use ‘REFER20‘ and get the box for Rs.680/-
Five full sized natural products for Rs.680/-, definitely a deal you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this month’s My Envy Box.
Summers are here and sadly, showing no signs of mercy especially up in the North. Oh, wait… Who am I trying to fool? The entire India seethes as if set on fire during the inclement summers, right? 😛 While one would have checked their beauty armoury and stashed all essentials needed to brave the unforgiving summers, yet those of us who have highly chapped lips would be in a dilemma for the thirst of intense hydration of their lips would weigh on their minds. While at the same time, investing in a lip ‘butter’ (I know you might be wondering as to who’d invest in such ‘heavy’ lip products in summers) might sound impractical. 2 states… Not the flick but of your mind are having their own tussle and you are left puzzled!
Hold on. What if there is a lip butter that works to soothe your chapped lips deeply while not making them feel greasy/oily/heavy all the while it has been put on? Oh, and what if it is 100% natural, free from chemicals and vegan? I know I have ignited your interest you Obsessive-Compulsive- lip-balm- addict 😛 Scroll down to read my verdict on Raw Rituals Orange Lip Butter.
WHAT IT CLAIMS- Pamper your pucker with our lip butter daily to keep them moisturised, soft and supple.
MY VIEWS-
Packed in a plastic tube with a see-through cap on top, the packaging of this lip balm is simple, hygienic and handy. The cap has not lost its grip even after a month of regular use. On that account, it is up to the mark in terms of packaging for me.
The lip butter has the smoothest possible texture I have cover across till date. It glides so effortlessly that at times, I swipe it more than what is required simply because I enjoy the ease with which it glides 😛
It is neither waxy nor greasy that we expect most lip ‘butters’ to be. It is lightweight and when applied feels very natural. The staying power is good at 4-5 hours and so is the moisturisation ability. No wait, let me correct it. The moisturisation power is phenomenal! Your lips feel deeply…intensely… hydrated. And even after it gets wholly absorbed, you can note that it just did not sit on your lips all this while. It worked to heel them. For this reason, I’d recommend it to all those with severely chapped lips.
The aroma, although transient, refreshes you for it isn’t artificial and quite mild. It is so deeply hydrating that you can wear the most ‘drying’ lipsticks with sheer abandon if you have coated your lips with lip butter in the first place. With light meals, I haven’t experienced the need of a touch-up while with heavy ones, there is. I can turn a blind eye to it for that’s a minor flaw.
On the flipside, there is only shortcoming with this lip butter which I cannot ignore and that is its inability to impart any colour/tint. It is colourless which is why, those with pigmented lips may not be able to cover the darkness of their lips. So, that is the only input from me to Team Raw Rituals. All else for me falls in place. Pout without a doubt if you have this lip butter by your side 🙂
GOOD-
1. Commendable moisturisation power. Keeps lips well hydrated for 4-5 hours. Duration may vary depending on the condition of the lips but the point remains that it has an amazing moisturisation ability. Even after it gets absorbed fully, your lips feel softened.
2. Heels the cracks well.
3. Natural aroma. I am glad it hasn’t been pumped with artificial aroma. And the faint aroma of orange essential oil is refreshing. It isn’t long lasting but for the time it stays, you don’t feel that you have murdered your nostrils with a fake fragrance (under the garb of which many chemicals are added)
4. Packaging is on par. Stick packaging is handy, hygienic and avoids contamination.
5. Well-priced. It is budget-friendly.
6. 100% Natural
7. Chemical and preservative free
8. Made in India
9. Works wonders for the most chapped lips. Again, duration of healing may vary but it is a wondrous choice given its efficacy, ability, price and content.
10. A single stick lasts a good 3 months.
11. Can be purchased through Amazon India.
BAD-
1. No tint/colour imparted. Thus, unable to cover pigmentation/darkness of lips.
RATING- 4.75/5

Its a normal plain looking thick butter..it melts on the contact of skin and spreads smoothly on the lips. It has super yummy cocoa butter smell…Its one of the most moisturising product ever..makes and keeps lips super soft. My upper lip was a little dry from a few days and this thing solved my problem in a day. Works amazingly well.
Pros:
1. Love how moisturising this is..! 2. Contains cocoa butter,kokum butter,sal butter, mango butter..the best combination of all moisturising butters. 3. Smells awesome !! 4. It is free from all preservatives and parabens and is totally natural. 5. Economically priced.
Cons:
1. Tub packaging..but they do mention that its a personal care product and should be used by only one person..but ya you need to dip hands..so a hygiene issue. 2. It would help heal chapped lips but obviously not for forever..you do need to use it whenever you feel you got dryness…though this I would not consider a con..I do not expect permanent results too.
No other con..this is a wonder product for lips..overall I super love it..!!
