PRODUCT REVIEW: LUST HAVE IT MARCH 2016

The March Lust Have It Box arrived the day before Easter, which was very lovey, plus always nice when the box actually arrives in the relevant month! Here's what was inside and my thoughts...




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.

Available from Lust Have It 



What I Say:

Like previous months, this months’ products arrived in a pink mesh bag. I don't mind those bags, but have so many of these by now that I'm starting to not know what to do with them, so really I'd love it if Lust Have It changed the style again for a bit of a variety. This months bag included four full sized items as well as a deluxe sized sample. 





Be A Bombshell Mechanical Eyeliner in Radiance - Full Size (RRP: $20)
By now I have received quite a few items from Be A Bombshell Cosmetics in the Lust Have It boxes, and while I don't mind the products that I've tried so far, I guess the novelty is wearing off a little and essentially I'd love to see other new brands included instead. This eyeliner in the shade Radiance is a purple/eggplant shade, and being as conservative as I am, sadly I doubt that I'll ever wear it!!

Sebamed Liquid Face & Body Wash - Deluxe Size, 50ml (RRP: $14.95/300ml)

I have heard of this brand, but never actually tried any of the products. The wash claims to be good for normal to sensitive skin as it has a PH value adjusted to healthy skin, so it is super gentle and perfect for sensitive skin. I don't particularly have sensitive skin so don't really have a need for this, so not really super excited about this one. But at least my husband often complains about dry or irritated skin on his body, so I think I'll pass it on to him. 



Glazel Visage Single Matte Eyeshadow - Full Size (RRP: $15)

A new brand I've never come across before. YAY, that's always exciting. I got the eyeshadow in a matte violet shade, which is pretty enough, but again, as I'm quite conservative and prefer nude or brown shades on my eyes, I will never use this, which is a bummer. But for those who will, at least it matches the purple Be A Bombshell Eyeliner. Mellow Cosmetics Matte Lipstick - Full Size ($18)


Jersey Shore Spa Anti Ageing Whole Body Balm - Full Size (RRP: $20)

Another new brand yay! That is, I have actually heard of Jersey Shore before, but never tried any of their products so still exciting. This Anti Ageing Whole Body Balm comes in the shape of a lip balm! Have to admit that I re-read the card, as surely this cannot be a body balm! But yup, and in fact, it can be used in the hair too. Enriched with among others jojoba oil, vitamin E and Argan Oil, it claims to deeply condition, nourish and hydrate. Look forward to trying this one out!


Ruby Slanted Fine Eyeliner Brush - Full Size (RRP: $22.40)

Another brand that I have not come across before (I know that the Ruby Shoes brand has recently launched a makeup line, but I'm unsure if this is from that brand!). Anyway, the brush looks great, and I don't actually have a slanted eyeliner brush in my collection, mainly because I always use liquid eyeliners in pen format, so never really had a use for one, but regardless, still handy to have in your brush collection.

So there you go, the contents of this months Lust Have It. Value-wise this box is definitely worth its money, but unfortunately, this month I just don't the products that valuable to me. I will enjoy using the Jersey Shore Body Balm, and don't mind the brush (although would naturally have preferred another style that I could have used immediately!). The Sebamed will be passed on, and the eyeliner and eyeshadow I really don't know what to do with! But I'm sure others will be very pleased with this month's selection.

Of course I can fully understand how difficult it must be for Lust Have It to put together the monthly box that is suitable for everyone, and to everyone's taste. I just wish that there was some sort of customisation available - If I'd only received the eyeliner and the eye shadow in more 'user-friendly' shades, then I would have been a happy camper too - Like I was last month. I have my fingers crossed that next months box will be better again!
