My Black Box ~

Yo~~

this post is going to be about how my cheapoTM self got a black box and what's inside ^^""

(shamelessly announces) 

You guys must have known , moi , a poor student in this sunny island of singapore is a follower of ChepoTM ideology . Being a cheapo , I'm on a constant lookout for freebies !!

(no la , not that cheapo lah ^^ but who doesnt love freebies? Come on~)

So I heard about Black Box , a new sampling box in Singapore , and subscribed a few months ago  (since its free anyway ^^)  and my Black Box arrived a few weeks ago (yea , I was a bit occupied to blog about it lah ^^ hehehee) so anyway , here it is :

They used some sort of registered mail to send it to my address ;3 very professional 

This is basically the first picture i took after i opened the box

Vouchers and a plastic gel-pouch on top ;D

Then , below the stack of vouchers , the goodies ~!!! ❤ ♡ ❤ (ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ ❤ ♡ ❤

Here are what's supposed to be inside the Box 

(note that some items are only available for special people lah ^^ --> which I think means people who got approached by Black Box itself to be sponsored ,  :D so in my box , I dont have them ^^ -sorry for not being famous lah hor heheheee~) but anyway , here's whats inside my box ) 

My Box :

• Darlie Expert White 
• Dettol Natural Nourishing Body Wash 
• est.Lab Sunshield SPF 50 Sample
• L'Oreal Paris Dermo-Expertise Youth Code Boosting Essence sample
• L'Oreal Total Repair Deep Repairing Mask Sample
• Nature Valley  Oats ‘n Honey (2 bars) 

Selected Boxes :

• Kinohimitsu Drink

• Dr. Jart+ Premium  Blemish Base SPF 45/PA++ Whitening & Anti Wrinkle 
• Dr. Jart+ Detox Blemish Base SPF 25/PA++ Whitening & Anti Wrinkle

lipIce SHEER COLOUR Review

I had had some problem about dry lips for a while now, 

and I've been using quite a number of brands of lipbalm to fight this problem 

Then, I heard about lipIce, 

of which, the facebook page claims 

"Mentholatum, the #1* Bestselling Lipbalm Brand in Japan!" 

One of their selling point is...

They contain Natural Beeswax~!!

Curious, I filled in their sample form and voila !!

It finally arrived today !!!

To be honest , I actually claimed one of their previous sample before

but it didnt reaaaallllly awed me this much ^^  I like it , and I kept it for some time tIll I accidentally dropped it T_T . Sadly , one fb accunt can only claim the sample once, 

so my imouto-chan, being so nice, claimed one for me, 

and it happened to be THIS ONE !!

xD

Lucky~ 

Love this !! ^^

Comes with bubble wrap ~! So thoughtful of them ^^

The sample packaging  is cute too ~~~!!! 

I got a mini "meltz" when I opened the sample and saw this cutie ~ =^^ =

So cute right ~!! xD 

and convenient to bring around too :3

It fits easily into my already very cramped wallet  。(⌒∇⌒。)

So, apparently, its supposed to appear sheer, 

and then change colour to PINK !!!!

(see the picture below ? ) OAO !!!

Really ??

So, I opened the mini capsule , aaaaand ~~  

ヾ(＠^∇^＠)ノ

1. The amount is actually generous ^^ 

I think this will last me for 2 weeks - 1 month at least

2. It IS indeed sheer O.O as you can see, it seemed untinted 

Noooow~~ time to try it out ~~ ヾ(･ω･*)ﾉ

              BEFORE        AFTER

Can. You. See. That ? 

ヽ(°◇° )ノ ------>   ヽ( °◇°)ノ

I'm quite surprised that it does work !!!!! 

Curious, curious , 

I tried it on my hand  !!

Okay, maybe not too clear, 

lets try this on tissue paper ^^

See that ?

SO, what happened is : 

It IS initially sheer, but somehow, 

as they claim, it Magically turns a pretty shade of pink. (ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ

So, my opinion on this item is :

Moisturizing power : 9/10 

It is very moisturizing . Creamy and thick, yet not smothering on the lips. 

Colour : 8/10

Love it !!! The pink shade is so smooth and sweet  :D and it stays on . I'd love it if they explain what actually goes on though, cause some people may cringe at it and think its some dangerous chemical process :3 but overall, I trust lipIce's products and I didnt see any potentially harmful ingredients on their ingredient list :3. They're reputable too ^^ 

Will I repurchase ?

Yes !! Once I finished my current one and this one  ^^ 

If you're like to try the sample yourself, you can claim it at :

PS : 

I am by no means paid by lipIce to write this. I just felt like writing this cause I've had dry lips problem for quite some time and given I got this item for free , and it actually works quite well !! I decided to write sth about this ^^
