Lujo Box - A New Subscription Beauty Box

Hi Everyone!

Today's post is all about a new beauty subscription box that just launched. It's called the Lujo Box (pronounced as lu-ho box)

The box that came in for the month of October is a black cardboard box which looked quite nice to open. Inside it housed a card with details of this month's box contents, a t-shirt, some products enclosed in a nice looking paper with the Lujo Box logo all over it. And below all this was a red velvet storage pouch which can be used to actually keep jewelry.

Subscription to Lujo Box is priced at Rs 1250, you can subscribe Here

Now let's dive in to see what beauty products came in the box.

My Envy Box - 15 Years Of Forest Essentials

This February Forest Essentials completed 15 years of bringing us all ayurvedic products. To celebrate with them My Envy Box dedicated the February box to Forest Essentials.

The box is absolutely gorgeous. Its a white box with two beautiful peacocks on top. I am surely saving this to keep my ethnic earrings or necklaces. 

Price: Rs 850 (purchase online at http://www.myenvybox.com/)

You open the box to reveal 5 products from Forest Essentials. 

Products in the box are:

1. Forest Essentials Madurai Jasmine & Mogra Silkening Shower Wash (Price: Rs.295/- for 50ml)

2. Forest Essentials Luxury Sugar Soap (Price: Rs.295/- for 50gm)

3. Forest Essentials Hand Pounded Organic Fruit Scrub (Price: Rs 1675 for 50 gm) - this is the product I used first - it smells amazing, there is a punch that instantly lifts your senses while the scrub gently cleanses your skin

My Envy Box February 2015 - Miss Malini Limited Edition

I'm quite late to post about the February 2015 My Envy Box. But this is a special box curated specially by the team at Miss Malini, so I thought a late post is still better than not posting at all.

The box this time was black with bright pink and white used for the text.

Inside it had a bright pink bag containing all the goodies. The box contained a special voucher worth Rs 500 that can be redeemed at H2O counters across the country. It also contains a card that allows you to get a makeover at Sephora not just for yourself but for a friend too!

Coming to the products, lets see what all I got inside my envy box this month.

1. Skin Yoga Post Workout Neem Purifier (Price: Rs 1550 for 200gm)

This is a body scrub that contains pure neem leaves and coconut meal. I find the products from Skin Yoga pretty expensive so its always good to try out a sample sized product. The sample is around 20gm so should be good for two usages.

2. Innisfree Wine Peeling Jelly Softner (Price: Rs 900 for 180ml)

This is one product I am really happy to try out. I like products from Innisfree and this one boasts of real wine. I do wish the sample was a bit larger. There are two small sachets in the box this time. It is basically a cleanser for the face.

3. LYN Nail Polish (Price: Rs 350 for 12ml) 

A full sized product in the box always makes me happy. The nail paint I got is a bright red - perfect for the theme of Valentines. I will share the swatches in the coming days.

Lets take a look at each of the products inside this months My Envy Box.

1. Suganda Neem Tea Tree Soap (Price: Rs 800 for 120gm) 

Okay this sounds extremely expensive for a soap - the soap is handmade and the sample in the box is about 20gm. I really like using neem and tea-tree based products. Am exited to try this out - I just hope its not drying as the weather has now taken a sure shot turn towards winters.

2. San-Cha Tea Boutique - Mint Green Tea

There is no price specification for this product. I have just very recently started drinking green tea, or shall I say I'm still trying to bring it into my daily diet. I am not a big fan of mint but I will definitely try it out. Mint and green tea is a good detox combination for sure. Oh, and look at that cutely packed tea - love it!

3. Za Perfect Solution Cleansing Foam (Price: Rs 399 for 100gm, sample 5gm)

I am actually already using this product and am happy to receive this travel sample. Good to carry in your purse as well. Will share a full review in the coming weeks.

Starting from top left going around in a clockwise direction - 

1. Clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover (Price: Rs. 1950 for 125mL - sample size 5mL)

This is a generous sized sample and I am quite excited to try this one out. 

2. Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief (Price: Rs 3550 for 50ml - sample size 1.5ml)

Clinique Moisture Surge is an oil-free moisturiser that is said to work for all skin types. Since this is a small sample I am going to use it up during the Diwali break (yes no office for 2 days followed by a weekend!)

3. Sebastian Professional Potion 9 (Price: Rs 1450 for 150ml - sample 10ml) 

This is a sachet of a hair serum - I have not used any products from this brand before and actually detest using serums out of sachets I am planning to tip it into a small pot and then use it. This is not a one time use sachet and I don't want to waste the product. Lets see how my  hair reacts to this one.
