(NEW POST) PINK BOX SEPTEMBER

Hello everyone!

A new month do arrive quick and so it is time for my second PINK BOX! I always get stupidly excited to see what it contents. I recognized that a lot of you liked my last PINK BOX POST, so I am not letting you wait any longer! Here is what I got for 12,95 Euro:

 

I really liked what I got. 🙂

The Lip Tint was a newbie to me. I saw them in stores for a while but hadn’t had the guts to try them (you know spending a lot of money on a product and you don’t know how it might turns out…) but know when it comes with the box I have the chance to try it  in the homely atmosphere of my bathroom. I am surprised and yet happy that the shade fit me really well. I am wearing them in the picture above. It’s decent and the color isn’t so intense so perfect to wear for office and everyday life activity. The tint stays on your lips even if you eat, drink or kiss! 😉 The only thing negative I find is that my lips dry out pretty fast so I had to use my Burt’s Bee’s lip balm quite often.

Also the Body Butter by the Body Shop was a highlight as it came full-sized (So came the NIVEA  Volume Sensation). Really a treat. I am going to try the Mascara by Amway as soon as my Max Factor is empty and looking forward how it turns out.

I really like getting in touch with all kinds of different brands and I love to be introduced to new ones and that is really a bonus with the PINK BOX. I am really curious to try the Beautycycle samples and maybe I will stick to it!  Will see!

And as there was a  The Body Shop 20% off voucher in the box I will browse their onlineshop to see if there is anything lovely to use it on!

My boyfriend got the Nivea Volume Sensation to try as his hair is much thinner than mine and it turned out pretty well. 🙂 So not only one happy PINK BOX user!! 😉

Looking forward to the one I’ll get in October! 🙂

(NEW POST) MY PINK BOX- OR HELLO MY NEW ME

A few months ago I fall head over heels for fashion, which made me re-think my own personal style! I had a certain style for years. That was mainly a comfy skater Girl look. Baggy pants or lets say comfy pans-always in blue with a colorful shirt or cardigan. Nothing too Girly and nothing too excited to be honest. Now that I had the chance to visit London in May and went shopping in all those Highstreet Shops like Top Shop, New Look, Boohoo, Miss Selfridge…I took the Challenge to be “brave” and wear Clothes I have never worn before, try different make-up and color my nails. All things I have never done regularly.  Along the way I also got inspired by a lot of Fashion and Lifestyle Magazines and more important by two Fashionistas which I am friends with on Twitter.

Thank you Rowena and Nimwai for giving me tons of tips and answered my questions!! 😀 That really means a lot!!! xoxo

One day as I was browsing one of Nimwai’s blog posts (click on her name to get to her blog 😉 ) I read something about a “My Little Box”.  After reading the first few sentences I was excited that it is possible to order a so-called Glossy Box or Beauty Box or Pink Box over the internet, which contents the newest fashion products as samples.

But how does this work you may ask?!

It’s as simply as subscribing for a Magazine. You sign up, set up your payment method and then you’ll get a cute box with beauty products every month send to your home. There are a lot of different boxes to order out there and every country has its own too. Sadly I can’t order the ones Nimwai gets in France but anyway… They cost between 12 and 20 Euros and have different things they content. So I would recommend checking a few of the provider for beauty boxes and choose the one that fits you most!

Here I found an article by Anysha Panesar about Beauty Boxes, which can help you to find your own! http://www.younghollywood.com/scene/beauty-boxes-the-new-trend-in-product-sampling.html

Today however came my first PINK BOX !!! 🙂 It’s like its Christmas or your birthday OR BOTH as you don’t have a clue what might could possible be in that box!!!! 😀

Here is what my first Pink Box looks like:

As you can see there came a Lifestyle Magazine with the bright PINK BOX , which is a lovely idea.  Beside this there was a

  • Permanent Lip Duo in a bright red color by Uma Cosmetics
  • Packages of Everyday antipersiprant
  • Moisterizing Eye creme by Lòrèal Paris
  •  Nailpolish “Tahiti Pearls” by catherine Nail Collection
  • Italian Body Lotion by Salvatore Ferragamo
  • 10 Euro voucher by Lakshimi shop.lakshimi.de
  • 3 Samples of the new Nutri-Gloss Crystal Shampoo by Lòrèal Paris
  • A Short Novel by Raven Cross (Mystery Thriller

All these treats for 12 Euro!!! (9,41 Pounds) (14,77 US Dollar) Not too bad I find! 🙂 I am already excited which goodies will content my PINK BOX in September!! That is really something to look forward too. I will share my next PINK BOX with you and who knows maybe you are curious or/ and excited and order one for yourself. I also have seen some Boxes for Men, if you are a male reading this or if you want to treat your boyfriend, hubby or best mate! 🙂

Love*Linn
