PRODUCT REVIEW: LUST HAVE IT MAY 2015

The May Lust Have It box arrived on my doorstep Monday 8th June. After running delays for the past many months, LHI announced a while ago that they would skip the April box to get back on track, but still the May box didn’t quite manage to arrive within the relevant month, although the delay wasn’t quite as big as previous months. But here’s my thoughts on this month’s box;




What They Say
Lust Have It boxes regularly contains products worth $60+ for only $19.95/month! Monthly box filled with 5 to 6 premium beauty samples. Delivered to your home or work each month for you to try.

RRP: Lust Have It Box (monthly) RRP: $19.95, Eco Box (quarterly) RRP: $29.95 – but if you use my unique code LIFESTYLE at the checkout on the Lush Have It website, you are eligible for $5 off your first box from Lust Have It, and at the same time you’ll also be supporting Beauty & Lifestyle Hunter, as I will get a few dollars too if someone subscribes using this code.

What I Say:

Like last month, the products this month came in a plain, foldable plain gift box, only this month it’s pink. Not sure why LHI has gone to this style of packaging, but I don’t really mind as I have heaps of the mesh toilet bags previously used anyway. Anyway, this is what was in the box;





Bloom Foundation Stick – Full Size (RRP: $35.00)







Boxes either came with the foundation stick or foundation brush. I got the foundation stick in shade base3, which I’m personally happy with as I already have numerous foundation brushes. As for the shade, it is a little dark for my winter pale skin, but hoping it will work come spring and summer. Regardless I am looking very forward to trying it out as I don’t recall ever trying any makeup from Bloom.


Soak Shampoo, Conditioner and Body Lotion – Sample Sizes 25ml each (RRP: Shampoo and Conditioner $24.95/500ml each, Body Lotion, $29.95/500ml)

 




A brand that is completely new to me, which I love – well except that the body lotion also popped up in this month’s Violet Box, so at least the shampoo and conditioner are new to me. The product promises to be packed jam full of vitamins and minerals good for the skin and hair, so I look forward to trying out these products.


Lonvitalite 24K Active Golden Yulan Oil Facial Mask and 24K Active Gold Eye Mask – One Mask of eac
h (RRP: $9.95/each)






I said this last month, and sadly will say it again, but unfortunately Lonvitalite face masks seems to be popping up in every single type of subscription box these days, so they really don’t excite me that much – I do love these masks from Lonvitalite, and hence they won’t go to waste, but I would have preferred to see a product from a brand that was new to me.



Nuxe Reve de Miel Hand and Nail Cream – Sample, 15ml (RRP: $19.95/75ml)






Boxes either came with the hand cream or the Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse, but ) as I’ve previously tried the oil (as it has been popping up in beauty subscription boxes previously) I’m quite happy that I get to try out the hand cream plus the small tube is the perfect size to pop into the handbag when you’re on the go.


Hola Seaweed Moisturising Repair Cream – Full Size ($24.95/50g)






Boxes come with one of several different products from Hola, including cleansers, toners, masks, eye cream or moisturisers, ranging in value from $17.95 to $24.95, and well, I got the Seaweed Moisturising Cream. I’ve never heard of this brand before so would love to try out this local Victorian brand. However, the moisturiser that I got is supposed to be super rich and intended for very dry skin, so unfortunately not the ideal match for my combo skin – so I might have to pass this one on to a friend.


So there you go, the contents in the May Lust Have It box. It contains a total of 8 products, of which four were full-sized, three were deluxe samples and two were mini samples.

There was a good variety of products including makeup, haircare, bodycare and skincare, with something for everyone.

In terms of value, just the Hola moisturiser on its own is more expensive than the cost of the box, and to that you can add the Bloom foundation stick and the Lonvitalite masks, so this month it really is value for money.

In spite of not being able to use the Hola moisturiser, I still feel that this months box is pretty good, and certainly exceed those of past months. Well done Lust Have It, I cannot wait to see what you’ve got in store for
next month!
