Unboxing : Jan-Feb BDJ Box

Hello dears!

I'm super enjoying the long weekend. Been hanging out with friends, oversleeping, shopping and my first ever BDJ Box arrived a couple of days ago and I've been using some of the items inside already.

It took me only now to get a BDJ Box because they're always out of stock whenever I felt like ordering. Actually, I ordered this around September or October. The boxes for November and December were out of stock already so that's why I was subscribed for the January-February box. I guess people really love BDJ Box... I often see unboxing posts and BDJ boxes almost always contain interesting products that I would love to try myself.

And so, let's open the box and see the goodies!

It contained a list of the products included in the box: 

So here they are:

I included the price of the products in their full-sizes.

 2 full-size Beauty and Bright Moringa Soap - Php 114.00

Honestly, I don't see the point of getting two bars. I thought this is a way to try out products so one full-size is enough. Besides, I've been using this soap for months now... probably why I wasn't so cheery when I saw this. :P But just so we're clear, I do love this soap! 

 Avon Face Pearls - Php 599.00

Another full-sized product! I guess this is Avon's version of the popular Guerlain Meteorites. 

 Revlon Nair Art Expressionist in Monet, Monet - Php 375.00

Oooh! It's named after one of the most popular painters of all time. The wannabe artist in me is happy. :D

 Yves Rocher Sexy Pulp Mascara - Php 650.00

Got a deluxe size version. I'm excited to try this the most. :D

 Ellana Minerals Lip and Cheek Tint - Php 220.00

Not a fan of tints but this seems interesting. I swatched it on my arm and it lasted the whole day on! Amazing lasting power!

Sachets of My Amazing Blow Dry Secret Shampoo and Conditioner - Php 1,200.00 per bottle

Tony Moly Tomatox Magic White Massage Pack - Php 548.00

Tony Moly Oriental Gyeol Emulsion - Php 1,398.00

 Tony Moly Intense Care Live Snail Cream - Php 2,098.00

Tony Moly  Luminous Pure Aura CC Cream - Php 948.00

I've tried some of the items from Tony Moly from the GWP's I got from my previous purchases from the brand.

Garnier Color Naturals - Php 199.00

I don't usually color my hair that dark but the good thing is my mom does! 

and finally, some GC's!!!

3 Gift Vouchers worth Php 500.00 each from Aesthetic Institute of the Philippines.

Free Brow House Construction from Browhaus worth Php 548.00.

A Php 600 off for Brazilian Keratin Treatment or Php 800 off for Cynos Nano Digital Perming.

I'm very satisfied with the products I got especially since more than half of them are in their full sizes! For the amount I paid, I got a really good deal. There are products that I didn't appreciate as much since I've tried them already but I think I'll be using everything that's included in the box for sure. I'm happy with my first ever BDJ Box and I'll be buying another one soon!

Cheers,

Beauty and Bright: Skin Lightening Body Soap & Anti-Aging Serum Bar

Good evening ladies,

Today, I'll be giving my thoughts on this beauty bar by Beauty and Bright. This is one of the organic soaps that were given to us to sample. I have a hard time giving comments on soap products so, please bear with me as I try to relay to you my experience.

Packaging

There is little to comment about the packaging, the design is quite simple and straight forward. I don't really see myself buying this if I ever pass by it in the grocery since the design is plain.

As was said earlier, this soap is organic and would probably be the one reason why I'd go over and look at it to buy it.

I guess because it is organic, it has a short life span, expires after 3 years.

Ingredients list and directions for use. It's the first time I've encountered instructions to leave the soap on and let the body absorb anything. I apparently had been misusing the soap for the first few weeks that I've tried it. Good thing I came across the instructions.

Performance

I cannot really comment on the lightening effect of this product since I don't notice those details as keenly although I did notice a certain lightness to my color, almost like a glow. As for the anti-ageing properties, that I cannot comment since I'm not really sure how people quantify ageing of the skin. If they mean anti-ageing when the product makes their skin feel soft and smooth, then I'd say, this product has successfully done that. But real skin ageing is seen under the scope, and that proof I cannot comment on.

The bar has a lovely scent though. It smells strongly of moringa which adds to the fresh smell of lemon, making your bath time the freshest and most invigorating part of the day.

That's all I can comment on this soap. Hope to encounter it in the stores so I can further see it's effects.

Cheers,

My April Salad Box

Hey dears!

I just received my Salad box for the month of April yesterday. 

I wasn't suppose to get one for that month but I forgot to unsubscribe my recurring transactions. Haha! That's why I was hoping that this one contains really good stuff so that I won't regret forgetting it.

So the items are cased in the classic Salad box package.

The theme is about Nature. What's with April and nature? The other subscription box that I ordered has the same theme. Haha!

Here's the list of items included in the box: 

The next pictures are individual shots of the products:

 (Please refer to the list in the picture above for the name and description of the items)

 (I just had to take a picture of the butterflies at the back :P)

The contents are interesting but I'm not very impressed with them unlike the last month's box. I guess they are all worth a try though. I'm looking forward for my May Salad Box since it's a Missha Box! Makeup!!! Yayyy!

Which among the items is most interesting for you?

Cheers!

My April Glamourbox!

 Hey gorgeous!

Yesterday, I received my Glamourbox for the month of April!

I am not a regular subscriber to any box anymore. So for this month I decided to try get a Glamourbox... BUT I forgot to cancel my recurring subscription to Salad Box so I will be receiving an April Box on that one too. Haha!

So anyway, back to my unboxing of my glamourbox...

The box is neatly wrapped with the really nice and sturdy box.

 This month's box is all about nature and the beauty benefits it gives us!

Here's the list of products with their description and prices:

And I was happy that some of the items are in their full size! :)

So in the order that they are written in the item list, here are the pictures of the items:

(Please use the picture of the items list as reference)

Picture above is my favorite inside the box!

I got the Tomato one before. I liked it so I can't wait to try this one out!

 Already received one in one of my salad boxes. 

Overall, I like the items in this month's box. I wasn't entirely happy that I got 2 soaps in one box but I guess it's fine. I'm still excited to try them all.

So what are you most interested in this month's Glamourbox that I got?

Which one would you want me to review first?

Cheers!
