Luxe Box September

6:00 AM


WOW I JUST got my Luxe box, September 27th, now I had to be one of the last people to receive it! I don't quite know what was going on with Canada Post but I had received 3 other packages in between when other people were getting their Luxe Box and when I actually got it so it didn't quite make sense to me... but on with what this month brought =)

This month the full prices on here are really expensive!!! I find it really fun to test out all these expensive items!

 MOROCCAN OIL | The Original Oil Treatment- $42.00 100 ML
This product is specifically designed for hair that has been damaged by chemical processing and stripped of it's natural moisture and elasticity. Repair luster to sun-ravaged hair with this nutrient rich treatment. The results are instant and outstanding and will leave hair hydrated with a lightweight,silky texture.

I was soooo pleased to receive this! I have always wanted to try it but the price is honestly too high for me, this bottle will last a ridiculously long time =D

SECHE VITE | Top Coat - $35 5ML
Widely acknowledged as the world's finest top coat, Seche Vite is specially formulated to penetrate through nail lacquer to the base coat forming a single solid coating over the nail plate for a much more durable finish. Guaranteed not to yellow while leaving nails silky,stronger and resistant to chipping and peeling.

This sounds fairly nice, I do not currently own a really nice top coat so this is nice.

LAURA MERCIER | Perfecting Water-Rich. $38 200ML
Also known as perfecting water moisture mist, this hydrating fluid temporarily over hydrates skin allowing a deeper penetration of ingredients, moisturizers and serums in further treatments. Contains deep sea water,and ingredient that enhances metabolic reaction within the skin and helps cell renewal. Keep your skin looking soft and supple all day.

This sounds lovely, but how do I spritz it on my face when the container is like this? There is a little hole at the top, so I guess you dab on cotton pad and wipe on face?  

 MEREADESSO | Face + Neck Toning Gel -$120 50 ML
This face + neck toning gel is like dipping your skin in nourishing supplements. With 16 bontanical extracts,7 minerals, a complex of vitamins and enzymes and over 20 different antioxidants, your skin is going to love you for it! Experience a cooling and tightening sensation with a slight twist of citrus.

I was also excited to try this, $120! Wow that is a hefty price tag. I have used this two times so far and my skin actually feels really nice!

Overall, I know there is a lot of up and downs with the whole mystery box, I did enjoy two of the items. This was not my favorite month to be honest. I would REALLY like to see a mascara in one of my Luxe Boxes!

Have you tried any of these? Did you receive a September Luxe box or something similar?



Dermalogica

Luxe Box June 2011

12:07 PM

It's FINALLY HERE!!! Due to the mail strike in Canada this was delayed by a couple weeks... It felt like a month but it was only a couple weeks. I also wanted to thank Loose Button for keeping everyone updated during the mail strike, that was really helpful while I was patiently waiting for my June  box! =)



I like this description plus pricing of each product it comes with.


*SOTHY'S-Teint Lift Defence.
Foundation that firms and protects.
Retail price-$40



*JOICO-Colour Therapy Restorative Styling Oil
A hydrating oil that brings life back to dull lifeless hair.
Retail Price-$26

 *LAURA MERCIER-Eye color in Coffee Ground
A non-dusting color that is easily layered and sheered.
Retail Price-$22

Nicely pigmented!

*DERMALOGICA-Shaving Cream & Daily Clean Scrub
An ultra-lubricating cream that delivers a super close shave.With a dual-action exfoliating cleanser that removes dulling surface debris.

I am most excited for the Dermalogica I think. This will be my first Laura Mercier eye shadow, which they upgraded to a full size =) But everything in this month's box sounds great!

Did you receive your June Luxe Box? Have you tried any of these products before?
