What's in My FabBag? June 2017 Edition

Hi Everyone!

I know I had completely disappeared in the month of May and put up no new posts. A whole bunch of things were going on. My Dad's cook and my cleaning lady had gone on a month long leave and I had to shuttle between my home and Dad's to manage everything. On top of it all, I was under the weather for at least 10 days! So it was all crazy and I had no time to put up any posts. I did shoot a couple of videos but couldn't manage to edit them on time.... so...

Anyway, here we are. Let's do a quick roundup of what FabBag has for us this month.

The June FabBag is themed Boho Chic.


I like the understated Jute finish bag.



So here is this month's collection. There are 4 products in the Bag this month

BioBloom Foot Cream (Eucalyptus)

Product Price: INR 335/- for 50 gms

Sample Size in Bag: Full Size

Johara Creme Rich Lip Colour Cocoa Delight

Product Price: INR 395/- for 4.5 gms

Sample Size in Bag: Full Size

Sugar Twist and Shout FadeProof Kajal on 01 Black Velvet

Product price: INR 399/-

Sample size in Bag: Full Size

APS Cosmetofood Activated Spring Water

Product Price: 270/- for 50 ml

Sample size in Bag: Full Size

Hey that's all four full sized products! What I like best in this month's bag is the Sugar Twist and Shout Kajal. The Johara lipstick was this month's product of choice, so I chose this neutral brown. It will make a nice present, since I am drowning in lipsticks at the moment. The BioBloom foot cream is nice too, the Eucalyptus variant is quite refreshing and the cream itself gets absorbed quite easily. As for the APS Cosmetofood Activated Spring Water, check out the detailed video of my first impressions HERE

Value of Bag: INR 1399/-. That's great, because I paid INR 416/- for the bag (I have an annual subscription)

Overall Verdict: Great value for money Bag! Though none of the products were those that I desperately wanted, a woman can never have too many Kajals. If you like what you see, book your June Bag today!

Hello Everybody!

This month FabBag gives me yet another reason to love it! FabBag usually sends 4 to 5 products of which gnerally 1 is a full sized product. This month they have packed 6 products of which 2 are full sized. So let's do a quick roundup and see if you should pick one up this month.

I'm not sure I like the leatherette bag, FabBag has had better.

Moha Herbal Shower Gel

Product Price: INR 105 for 100 ml

The product smells fresh and herby with a strong minty fragrance. Great as a travel pack. Nice!

Seduction Las Vegas Lipstick 06 Nude Love

The lipstick was the customer choice item for this month. It i a nice pinkish brown shade which makes for a lovely nude on my complexion. Given its price point, its quite good!

Ayorma SPF 40 Sun Block

Product Price: INR 349/- for 50 ml

Sample Size in Bag: 10 ml

Ayorma is a small brand, but it delivers quality products. I have used their facewash, scrub and night cream and I really liked them. So I am looking forward to using their sunblock too.

Sugar Tip Tac Toe Nail Lacquer 013 Break on Blue

Product Price: INR 249/-

Product Price: INR 295/- for 100 ml

Sample Size in Bag: 55 ml

Kronokare also has some great products in its stable. I have already enjoyed using their body wash, body oil and moisturizer. So the Face toner looks promising.

The Nature's Co. Sandalwood Turmeric Anti-Blemish Cream

Product Price: INR 895/- for 50 ml

Sample Size in Bag: 20 ml

The Nature's Co. is a well known brand with some great products. Since I have acne issues and marks that they leave behind, I'm hoping this product will work for me.

Overall Assessment: I think its a good bag and if you like what you see, quickly order yours!

Just Herbs Aloe Vera Facial Massage Gel

Natural Bath and Body Body Mist: Beautiful Day

Product Price: INR 325/- for 200ml

I must admit this did not make me jump up in glee and say 'Yippeee', but the herby-smelling body mist does not disappoint either. Ok, but not GREAT...

So, 3 out of 4 HITs is a big deal!

Value of November Bag: INR 1480/- approx. A great deal, I would say, if you spend around INR 499/- for the Bag.

My Envy Box August 2016 Edition

Hi Everyone!

My Envy Box arrived today and because we are in the middle of a 3-day weekend, I decided to give you the round up today itself!

The Box has a monsoon theme with clouds and umbrellas. My daughters are already eyeing the box!

What's Inside this month's box? I got a couple of email teasers saying that its raining full sized products. So when I opened the box, I saw three out of four products are full sized. The fourth is a generous 50 ml sample pack. So let's explore My Envy Box further.

Hedonista Clear Moisturiser

Product Price: 1925 for 300 ml

Sample Size in Bag: 50 ml

I have really oily skin and this weather make it stickier. So I'm always on the lookout for a light, easily absorbed moisturiser. So I'm really looking forward to testing this product to see how it works on me.

Omorfee Lip Lightening Salve
Product Price: INR 549/- for 10 gems
Sample Size in Box: Full Size

Lip Balms are in season all the year round. And this product promises to restore natural soft, baby pink lips. Mow my lips aren't too pigmented, but who does;t like soft, pink lips?

O3+ Eye Circle Cream

Product Price: INR 385/- for 15 ml

Product Size in Box: Full Size

Not that I have bags or dark circles, but the promise of keeping wrinkles at bay, is definitely attractive!

Stay Quirky Nail Polish in LustyIllustration (877)

Does a price range indicate different prices for different shades? Will let you know whether I like the nail polish or not, in a bit.

Overall Verdict: Three out of four products are full sized, so thats quite nice. However, the nail polish isn't something I'm dying to try out. The other products are well curated, though!

August 2016 Edition of the FabBag

Hi Everyone!

This time round I have tried to be punctual in giving you an update on my new FabBag for August 2016.

This month the FabBag theme is "What the Chic". The products in this month's bag cater to skin care, hair care and makeup. Regular subscribers were allowed to choose a makeup product from Geri G. You could chose from foundations, concealers and a mineral blush and eyeshadow duo.

I think its not easy to pick up foundations and concealers from websites unless you are really familiar with the shades. So I decided to pick up the Geri G. Bending Cheek and Eye Duo.

This Month's Bag itself is black with pink accents. Looks quite smart, I think...

Geri G. Blending Cheek and Eye Duo

Product Price: INR 2500/- for 3 gems

Sample Size in Bag: Full Size

Just Herbs Kumuda - Sacred Lotus Rejuvenating Body Wash

Product Price: INR 545/- for 200 ml

I am loving this month's Bag! Its a head-to-toe bag catering to hair care, body care and a dash of makeup! The Geri G. Blending Powder Cheek/Eye Duo was a customer choice from among foundations, concealers and ..... I wasn't sure of the shades so I decided to pick up the blending powder. I have been using it for about two weeks and its already become a staple!

The Natural Bath and Body Gel Face Masque is promising too. I've used it a couple of times. I'll do a review of the product soon. 

The Body wash and Hair Oil are nice too!

Total Value of Bag: INR 3000/-. A brilliant deal, if you ask me!

Overall Verdict: Go For It!!

What's in My FabBag: February 2016 Edition

Hi Everyone!

February being the month of love, FabBag has planned a valentine's bag this time round. The glossy red pouch goes with the theme. This month's bag has 6 products of which 3 are full sized packs. However, I did miss the tiny magazine, Fab Post with this Bag. I saw the reviews and pictures by other bloggers, and no one else seems to have received one either! I really miss it because it had all the details of the products featured for the month, discount codes and various beauty tricks and tips.

Team FabBag, please bring back Fab Post!

I am very impressed with the January 2016 Bag. The curation is excellent and had me really excited. The personal touch this time went beyond the bag. I had forgotten whether my subscription ended in December '15 of January '16. So I called their number and the team immediately sent me a link to renew my subscription and sent me a link to choose my favourite Sugar Matte as Hell Crayon Lipstick. However the link that came in the mail, took me a page where there were many things to choose from, but no lip crayon. o confirm whether I had been able to register my choice, Team FabBag called me back and personally registered by choice. I am floored!

Verdict on the Bag: Great, value wise. 3 full sized products! Wow!

Total Value of Bag: INR 2891/- (Approx) Wow! Considering that a month's subscription is INR 499/-
