Lust Have It: May Box

Another month, another great Lust Have It box! Sometimes these boxes can be a bit hit and miss for me, as you would expect with these sorts of things, but it's another month where the box has been a hit. Now onto the good stuff that was inside...

What was in the box...

1. Teeez Cosmetics Spectrum of Stars eyeshadow in Sea Glare, $29 (full size)

2. PHR Recovery Leave-In Moisturiser, 15mL sample, full size 125mL for $35.95 (sample size)

3. Lollipops Baume Grenadine, $7.45 (full size)

4. Starlooks Luxe Longwear eyeliner pen, $20 (full size)

5. Urban Skin Co. Infuse Body Balm (this was a mystery sample size so I don't have any other information on it sorry!)

6. Razza Matazz Perfectly Matte Opaque leggings, $11.95 (full size)

The standouts for me...

Once again this was another month where the whole box really appealed to me. I was most intrigued by the eyeshadow, however the shade I received is green and sort of reminds me of a mermaid. It's a beautiful shade, but I can't really see myself getting a lot of wear out of it - unless some sort of fancy dress party comes up! The packaging is stunning and the eyeshadow itself is so reflective and the formula is smooth and buttery, however it's not overly pigmented upon first swatch. You can build it up a bit, but I think I might apply it with a wet eyeshadow brush if I decide to wear it, as that should intensify the colour a bit more. The liquid eyeliner also caught my eye, but when I tested it on my hand it wasn't as pigmented and creamy as I would have hoped. I'll give it a go, but I have a feeling it could get messy very quickly if you're trying to get a perfect wing, but we'll see. The tinted lip balm also stood out to me as a pretty thing just to keep in your handbag for when you need a hint of colour on your lips. The only downfall for me is that it's very sweetly scented and a little sticky, but I'm sure I can make it work as long as I don't wear it on a really windy day! 

The PHR leave-in moisturiser is also something I know I'll get a lot of use out of because I use a leave-in moisturiser pretty much every time I wash my hair, so it'll be nice to try this one out. The body balm is another thing that isn't particularly exciting, but it smells nice and I know that I'll use it. Finally, the leggings. I have to say that I was a bit surprised to see a clothing item in the box, but it's kind of cool. I was given the size tall/xtall so I'm hoping they're not going to be too long for my legs, but I'm sure I can make them work either way. It's perfectly timed too as we're in autumn now and it's definitely the season for tights to wear underneath cute skirts and dresses. 

Overall I was pretty happy with the items included in my box and I'm very interested and excited to test them all out and see how they go. It was a nice little assortment of mostly makeup (which is one of my favourite things to receive), with a few extra bits in the mix that I'll also get use out of. I also judge how much I like a box by how likely I am to use what was included, and I feel like I'll be very likely to get use out of everything in this box!
