What's in My FabBag: October 2016 Edition

Hi Everyone!

The Fab Bag update for this month would have come sooner but for a bout of flu that I am recovering from. So lets just have a quick look at this month's Bag before the month runs out!

The Bag is a festive gold, to go with the Diwali theme. And the selection of samples is a mix of skin care and make up. The Geri G. Lip Gloss Creme was the make up product I selected, form a range of mascara, blush and foundation from the same brand. So let me show you my bag in some more detail.

Geri G. Lip Gloss Creme in Bambe

Product Price: INR 1000/-

Product Size in Bag: Full Size

Veda Earth Cleansing Facial Oil

Product Price: INR 350/- (Full Size not mentioned)

Sample Size in Bag: 25ml

Stay Quirky Nail Polish in Shade 04

Product Price: INR 165/- for 6ml

Sample Size in Bag: Full Size

Votre Lip Gel Scrub

Product Price: INR 300/- (Full Size volume not mentioned)

Sample Size in Bag: 10 gms

Kaya Brightening Serum

Product Price: 1490/- for 30 ml

Sample Size in Bag: 5ml

Well, to be honest, I have mixed feelings about the Bag this month. I'm not exactly ecstatic about the October FabBag, but I do not completely hate it either. I' definitely looking forward to using the Kaya Serum and the Veda Earth Cleansing facial oil. The Geri G. Lip Gloss has a nice texture, but the colour washes me out, so its going out to a friend who will carry it off better than me. The Stay Quirky nail polish has a dull gold colour, so I'm definitely using this product.

Approximate Value of the October Bag: INR 1500/- +

Decent deal since I paid INR 499/- for this Bag.

So would I recommend the October Bag? I'm not crazy about it, but you can order it if you liked the section.

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)

Product Price: INR 250/- to 300/- (sic.)

Sample Size in Box: Full Size

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.

Total Value of this month's Box: INR 1709/- approx. Not bad considering you pay 

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!
