May 2016 Fab Bag Unboxing & Review

Hi guys,

So I got the May 2016 Fab Bag today and it’s the ‘Summer Escapade’ theme, perfect for the season.

Read my previous Fab Bag reviews:

MRP: Rs.599/- per month (Buy HERE)

It’s a green colored mesh bag, very helpful to see through products and I like carrying such mesh bags for travel, so that can identify what is stored.

Products I got:

  • Sea Soul Eyeshadow Duo in Deep Purple: Rs.950/-
  • The Nature’s Co. White Tea Night Cream (20ml): Rs.895/-for 50ml
  • Inveda SPF30 PA++ Sunscreen Cream Gel : Rs.275/- for 75ml
  • Nyassa Tea Tree Face Wash (30ml): Rs.400 /- for 145ml

To start with the Sea Soul Eyeshadow Duo, I absolutely love it! It has two shades and comes with a mirror, one is a deep bluish purple and the other is a duochrome gold/purple/denim blue shade. I can’t even describe how gorgeous the duochrome shade is. Both the shades are super pigmented and buttery. It’s an Australian HD makeup brand and I am so glad Fab Bag introduced a new brand this month. I have done a look with this eyeshadow duo on my YouTube channel HERE

I also loved the Inveda sunscreen cream gel, it’s very light and feels gel like in texture. Non sticky and gets easily absorbed, definitely using this up this month.

Nyassa tea tree face wash is also perfect for summers and this 30ml bottle is quite nice. Decent qty and good for travel too. The Nature’s Co. White Tea Night Cream is pretty expensive and this is a deluxe sized 20ml jar. Feels very rich and hydrating and perfect for night time, the smell is light and not very overpowering or bothering.

Overall, I would say I am pretty impressed with 2 full sized products including one new brand’s full sized makeup product. And two deluxe sized samples. I do like May’s Fab Bag and definitely recommend it.

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.

October ‘Get Set To Celebrate’ Fab Bag Review

Fab Bag is a monthly subscription bag where you get 4 (sometimes a 5th bonus) products.

Read my previous Fab Bag reviews:

October month of Fab Bag is the ‘Get Set To Celebrate’ Festive edition since Navratri and Durga Puja are around the corner.

MRP: Rs.699/- for 1 month

It’s a very cute potli type vertical bag this time, quite similar to the mobile pouch which was IN trend some time back, this is perfect to carry some cash, a lipstick and your cell phone during weddings, etc. I love the pink and red color blocking too and the button closure.

They have introduced the brands ‘Spa Ceylon’ and ‘Palmers’ this month. I had received a mail last month end, that I can select any one makeup product of my choice this month. I like the concept and it was quite interesting. I chose the Makeup Revolution Vivid Blush Lacquer in Heart as I had not tried the Makeup Revolution blushes yet.

So I received a full sized Makeup Revolution Blush which is priced at Rs.750/-, now this price varies from importer to importer, but currently it is priced at 750 everywhere.

Products I received:

  • Makeup Revolution Vivid Blush Lacquer in Heart- Full size (Rs.750/-)
  • Nyassa Oceana Foaming Face Scrub- 30g (Rs.900/- for 200g)
  • Spa Ceylon Green Mint Cooling Foot Scrub- 50g (Rs.1100/- for 300ml)
  • Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Lotion -50ml (Rs.545/- for 400ml)

All the brands this month are good. I wanted to try something from Spa Ceylon so I am glad I got a product but I would have chosen the Jasmine Face Mask given an option coz I more into face masks than foot scrubs. I have tried the Palmer’s Cocoa butter body lotion before (Read review HERE), this cute bottle is perfect for travel and I would keep it for that.

Overall I would say it’s a nice bag with nice brands, you get products worth around Rs.1100/- for a bag worth Rs.700/-, it’s a bit of a luck game here, if you get 1-2 different products, the value of the bag changes. But worth a try.

You can book your bag HERE

Nyassa Under The Ocean Hand Cream Review

Nyassa Under The Ocean Hand Cream Review

What the Company claims: True to our principle of “from Heaven and Earth” this Handcream brings together an unique fragrance with a host of secret natural ingredient that offers you complete and natural handcare. Under the Ocean Handcream mainly contains Almond Butter and Seaweed Extract. Almond Butter works effectively as a wonderful moisturizer that keeps your hands moisturized and prevent dryness. Seaweed Extract is known to work effectively as a natural emolient. It also fights pre-mature aging and is an effective smoothing agent.

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.300/- for 145ml

It comes in a square bottle with a pump dispenser and a very minute dispenser opening which just gives the required quantity in one pump. Also has a plastic cap on the top, so you can carry it around too. And the pump dispenser won’t spill out the product.

Its very very light in texture, no greasiness or stickiness here. I found the texture quite similar to my favorite L’Occitane Lavender Hand Cream. It has a seaweed, kinda aquatic, smell. I liked the smell. Not sure if everyone would prefer the seaweed smell.

Although its light in texture, its moisturising and hands feel quite soft. The hydration stays for 3-4 hours and untill you wash your hands or they come in contact with water. Almond Butter helps in hydration here.

I love reapplying it and this is currently on my bedside table. And I use it on my hands right before sleeping to wake up to soft hands.

The quantity of 145ml for the price of Rs.300/- is quite economical as most of the brands in this category are priced higher.

I personally loved it. And there are other two options: Alphonso Mango Hand Cream, Cool Cucumber Hand Cream, if you are not a fan of seaweed personally. Highly recommend Nyassa Hand Creams.

Nyassa Fresh Raspberry Soap Review

Nyassa Fresh Raspberry Soap Review

Fresh Raspberry Handmade Soap

MRP: 100 grams Rs. 200

The essence of sweet summer raspberries, ripe and ready to fall off the vine.

For best results, a rub or two will give excellent lather & the soap will last much longer. Please keep the soap dry between use. For all skin types

Naturally Pampering Ingredients: Soap Base, Essential oil/Fragrance and Colour

Best before 12 months from manufacture/100% Vegetarian

Its a clear soap..with a green base on one side..though thats quite less compared to the pic..

I love the smell !! It smells of real raspberries..

It does foam a lot..you can cut it into pieces and use as required..I like the fact that its not as drying as other soaps..though a little drying..more so if you used to creamy body washes like me..I use the Johnsons..

The only con would be once in contact with water..later even if you store it in a dry place..it keeps on precipitating and melting..I don’t know why..I keep cleaning and drying it..and still every time I see it..its wet all over with small water droplets over it..and this makes it melt and finish off sooner..now I don’t know how to keep it dry..apart from storing it in a dry place..

I also find it a little expensive for 100g..and also since it melts off sooner..

You can even buy it on the Nyassa site online..they have some additional shipping charges depending on the state..its Rs. 50/- for Maharashtra..They are also available on Craftsvilla, Urban Touch and Flipkart..

They have many other soaps like berry, lemon, mogra, rose and cardamom, etc in clear base..and other variants like Honey and Oats Soap and Loofah Soaps…I would love to try more of these..

If you like clear soaps, I did recommend trying this..
