March 2016 'More Power To You' Fab Bag Unboxing & Review

March 2016 ‘More Power To You’ Fab Bag Unboxing & Review

March 2016 ‘More Power To You’ Fab Bag Unboxing & Review

Hi guys,

I just now got the March Fab Bag, it’s the ‘More Power To You’ Women’s Day/Month theme.

Read my previous Fab Bag reviews:

MRP: Rs.599/- per month (Buy HERE)

It’s a metallic silver textured bag and I knew the Sugar Cosmetics Matte Lipstick is a part of the bag coz I saw it on their Instagram page and assumed it would be this brand.

Let’s see what all I got:

  • Sugar Cosmetics ‘It’s A Pout Time’ Matte Vivid Lipstick in 03 Mad Magenta (Full sized)- Rs.599/-
  • Wella Professionals Elements Shampoo (30ml)- Rs.175/-
  • Wella Professionals Elements Conditioner (30ml)- Rs.200/-
  • Nykaa Strawberries & Cream Nail Enamel (5ml)- Rs.149/- for 10ml
  • Nyassa Tiramisu Body Scrub (30g)- Rs.900/- for 200g

I really like the Wella Pro Elements Range, read my review HERE. It is SLS and paraben free and perfect for colored/treated hair, this deluxe sample size is perfect to try out and/or for travel.

I am loving the Sugar Matte Lipstick, love their Matte Crayon too, so was looking forward to the lipstick. Quite excited to try that out. It comes in this magenta pink shade, a muted berry, a nude and a coral.

I have 3-4 of Nykaa nail paints and they are quite decent, I love this summery shade and would definitely be wearing it.

The Nyassa Tiramisu Body Scrub smells amazing, but since it’s a body scrub, this 30g sample would only work once.

Overall, I would say it’s a mixed bag, not a must have but pretty decent if you are into matte lipsticks and wanted to try the Wella Pro Elements Range, a nail paint and bag are added bonus 😀

The value of the products come to around Rs.1200/- which is still not bad and the deluxe sizes are decent too.

What did you get in your March Fab Bag? Do let me know in the comments below.

MeMeBox Review: ColourBox #1 Red

MeMeBox Review: ColourBox #1 Red

So, I too jumped into the MeMeBox bandwagon (if you don’t know what it is about, go HERE), though I have tons and tons of things to do away with right now. (New place,shifting, etc after marriage) I am not buying anything new these days. But I wanted to try the MeMeBox since I had been hearing a lot about it.

About MeMeBox: Memebox is the #1 Korean beauty online retailer in the world.

Many of our products are sourced, packaged, and shipped, directly from Korea straight to your doorstep.

We also have a range of USA Exclusives, which include products most-loved by our USA customers – these ship directly from our USA warehouse.

We ship to 51 countries internationally: see if yours is on the list.

At Memebox, we’re committed to bringing you only the best – we’ll make sure it’s worth the wait.

They have 2-3 different kind of boxes, Original and Superbox.

The original Memebox comes packed with 4 – 8 full-sized products and deluxe samples.

SUPERBOX

Each Superbox comes with its own theme, and contains only full-sized items. Each month, we team up with style icons to curate special Superboxes featuring each collaborator’s favorite items – keep an eye on these, they sell out fast!

Also there are different boxes for different themes, and you have one for everything from scrubs to skin type to favourite color to hair care,etc.

Its been a long long time I ordered this, sorry for the delay in reviewing. I am running behind schedule on everything coz I am caught up with shopping and other stuff too. I got the ColourBox, they had three colours: red, orange and pink options if I am not wrong. (They have added a new Blue too) I went for the Red one.

About the Red Colour Box: Hey foxy ladies! Dare to step out of your comfort zone with our Memebox Red and vamp up your style with a dramatic, rosy red look? Add vibrance and vividness to your eyes and lips with a bold red hue, slip on those stiletto heels, and be that femme fatale that we all know you are.

What’s your favorite beauty color?
Spice up your life with some color and get your hands on 3 to 4 beauty products (full products and deluxe samples) at only $15.
Get your hands on 3 to 4 of the hottest beauty products straight from Korea.

MRP: $15.00

Shipping method: Standard Shipping
Shipping cost: $6.99
Estimated shipping time: 15~25 business days

It comes in a nice red colored packaging and 5 full sized products with details of each.

What I got in my box:

  • Dearberry Flirt Lipstick in 08 Red Parade ($12)
  • L’Ocean Eyeshadow L-35 Red 4g ($10)
  • The Cheek Room Two Color Lip Gloss 8ml ($12) (Super cute)
  • Tosowoong Gel Pencil Liner 1.2g in Burgundy ($10)
  • Dearberry Today Nail Lacquer #21 Pink Sprinkling 10 ml ($3)

The Dearberry red lipstick is an absolutely amazing and flattering red. The Cheek Room lipgloss is the cutest I have seen, did not own a two colour lipgloss ever. I love the nail paint shade too. I wont be using the red eyeshadow as an eyeshadow, I think it will make a pretty blush.

The best thing in the box is the Tosowong Makeon Burgundy gel eyeliner pencil. Always wanted to try a gel eye pencil which is quite famous in Korean makeup. Its a nice reddish brown burgundy color.

Having paid $15+ $7 = $22, I get $47 worth of products which is an amazing deal! And all MeMeBoxes are so worth it, coz you get much more value of products than what you pay. One actual beauty box where you end up getting something unlike small 5ml samples.

Since it was only one box, I was not charged with customs. But I have heard about few others having to pay huge customs, so that is one deterrent. If you do not stay in Mumbai and there are’nt much customs issues, you should definitely try this. Or I did suggest order one at a time, and not 2-3 together coz that definitely attracts customs.

You can buy it HERE (Its currently sold out, but they may stock soon). Also check out other boxes which are equally amazing.

Have you tried the MeMeBox yet ? Which is your favourite box ? Do share with me in the comments below, so that I can check them too 😀

L’oreal Color Rich Le Vernis 208 So Chic Pink Review, NOTD

L’oreal Color Rich Le Vernis 208 So Chic Pink Review, NOTDI showed you the L’oreal L’Or Sunset Collection HERE. The shade So Chic Pink was a part of this collection.

What the Company claims: THE 1ST GEL BASED NAIL POLISH WITH A BUILT IN TOP COAT.With a formula that combines rich pigments, pearlescents and optical effects, L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Le Vernis offers an extensive collection of 49 modern and fashionable shades. The mini 5ml bottle allows every woman to mix and match her favourite hues from the range to complement her every mood, occasion and look.

An exceptional formula with a built-in Top Coat
The ultra-fine ingredients in the formula are combined in a liquid gel base, the Liquigel, so the polish glides on smoothly and easily during application and provides even coverage over the entire nail.
A patented brush
Delivers just the right dose of polish for a one-stroke application in which each stroke applies an even amount of product all along the nail.

MRP: Rs.225/- for 5ml

Being a gel based nail polish, the texture is definitely amazing..and super easy to use..does not get gloopy in 2nd or 3rd coat unlike the normal ones..

The brush is amazing !! I have never got such neat application with any nail polish ever..I loveee the brush.

With 2 coats, you get the perfect opaque coverage..and it stays well for 3-4 days but starts chipping from the tips first..though the rest stays on pretty long..almost 7-8 days.

Coming to the shade So Chic Pink, I think its a super pretty coral red..not a normal bright red and not neonish coral too…a perfect blend of two..and also I got compliments for this nail polish and 3-4 girls asked me which shade was that 😀

Only pinch I see is the price..for a small 5ml bottle, its definitely pricey 🙁 Though I so loved the texture , brush and staying power, I would be surely getting more of these 😀
