Lust Have It March 2013

Lust Have It March 2013

So today I received my Lust Have It box in the mail today! Lust Have it is a monthly subscription box which I pay ($14.95) for but they have increased their price to ($19.95) this month for all new members. I think this is because the box's value is more but you guys can decide that.

This month thankfully it came in the Lust Have It box! (Last month I ordered my first box, which was missing a product and packed in just a white cardboard box) Hopefully this continues for the next six months, by which time I'll decide if its worth 20 dollars or if I should ditch both Bella Box and Lust Have it and go to Violet Box or Her Fashion Box.


So this months box came with five products, plus the one they left out of last months box. So I'll start with the biggest product,

Item Number #1
Item Number #1
Bio Elixir Body Shaper Cellulite Contour Creme RRP $59.95
 I'm really happy to receive such an expensive product and will definitely use this on my wobbly bits! It smells OK, not fantastic, but if it works I'd definitely buy another one as it very rare you find a cream that does what it claims. I am only twenty two years old but I like using preventative skin ranges as I want to keep everything in place for as long as possible!

Item Number #2


Item Number #2
The Natural Source Camouflage Color Crayon RRP $9.99 each
I wasn't exactly thrilled with the colors I received  they will have to be used as eye colors, or liners.I received  a lime green, which if I don't think I will use but the other which was like a really dark blue, almost black would be great when I'm doing a blue smokey eye. I think the size is a little small for $10 but they are really smooth and pigmented so maybe I'll repurchase in another shade.

Item Number #3

Item Number #3
Goldwell Dualsenses Rich Repair RRP 20.99 200 ml
This is a 50 ml sample of hair treatment. Will definitely use it and pleased with the size. I have heard of this brand before but never used it but pleased to receive a hair care product in the box. 

Item Number #4

Item Number #4
Ocean Essences Strawberry Rose Rubber Mask RRP $4.95 27 gm
I was really happy to see this in the box. I love using masks and have never used a 'rubber' mask so will maybe even do a review on this. The thought of strawberry and rose sounds delicious and I received something in the Bella Box this month from ocean essence so might do a double review of these guys!


Item Number #5

Item Number #5
Alash 'Dress to Impress' 'After Works Drinks' 'Geisha' 'Peaches and Cream' RRP $10.95 per pair
So these guys didn't have a label on them for me to tell you which ones I got so a little confused. They are super, super thick so will definitely have to think about where I'll wear them. I am a fan of eyelashes and was thrilled to see this in the box, I've used dozens of brands before so might end up re-purchasing these guys as they came with a voucher in the box. Taking them out of the box, they were super soft, and pre-glued which is handy!

My thoughts?
Well I was pleased with the box, but wasn't taken away. I would definitely pay the 15 dollars for the box, but 20 dollars is a little steep considering they don't do beauty profiles. It came beautifully packaged though, with a little lollipop that didn't make it to this blog! What did you guys receive in your boxes? Would you pay 20 dollars for these items?

  1. Mmm... i've been lurking around looking at boxes on blogs. You're right, it's a good box but not mind blowing - like the box that received a $40 eye cream!!!!

    1. I know! They really shouldn't have huge price disparities between the boxes! Thanks for the lurk!

    2. I think the $40 eye cream was only in the VIP boxes, and only those VIPs who have had a yearly subscription for a while got preference as stock was limited. I still think it's a good box though - thanks for posting your review :)

  3. I also received the
    Bio Elixir Body Shaper Cellulite Contour Creme
    The Natural Source Camouflage Color Crayons - Metal blue,Plum
    Goldwell Dualsenses Rich Repair
    and also received
    Gosh Cosmetics Mono Eye Shadow (RRP $16)- Browns
    Advanced Natural Hydrating Firming Mask 15ml size (RRP $49 50mls)
    and a lollipop!

    Very happy with mine - estimate it to be $116 value!
    I'm still currently paying $14.95 per month and thinking of taking out a yearly subscription.

    I dont count the coupons as added value as I have to spend money to save money!
    The Iconic is free delivery but a min.spend of $59 to use my $15 gift.
    25% of the Bio Elixia cream makes it $44.25 + shipping $7.95 = $52.20 so not such a bargain. Expires 10 May too. Even if cream works (I'm twice your age!)I'm not fussed on the smell - if smells like Johnsons Baby Shampoo!
    Free Month of Razors? Not sure about this - you need to sign up with credit card details and get the first month free and if you cancelled straight away, not too sure you might have to fork out for the next month before it was cancelled - bit of a grey area!
    Content with $116 value delivered to my door - coupons go in the paper recycling!

    1. Oh wow, eye shadow sounds great, so do your camouflage colors! Yeah I'm not too fussed on the coupons either. The razor thing was so random, those razors don't look very feminine.

  4. I got the exact same box but instead of a dark blue crayon I recieved a purple plum one. I wasn't really impressed with my box either =( esp considering what other reviewers have!

    1. plum sounds nice if you can use it as a lip pencil or even eye pencil depending on your skin color :) Yeah I'm not going to get any annual subscriptions from either box, they have been a bit unpredictable looking at everyone else's boxes.

  5. oooh if you want to trade your coloured crayons, i got a pinky nude (#044) and a deep pinky/maroon (#037)

    i would LOVE green!
