If you add up the value of the items of the gorgeous box, you are getting so much more than if you had purchased them individually.In that way Enigma Discovery Box gives great value for money.I really love this beauty concept as you not only get to try new products, but also spend a fraction on what you would usually pay for deluxe sized samples, plus you have the extra gift vouchers to help you save some cash too.
Actually, I received my Enigma Discovery Box a couple of weeks ago, but I wanted to wait
till I try out the products and then give my honest opinion on them.After 3 weeks of reviewing and testing here is my verdict and a peek of what you've been missing in case you haven't subscribed yet to the monthly beauty box.So without further ado, let's see what's in the December Enigma Discovery Box.- Maybelline Colossal Kajal
You must have this in your possession! This is seriously the best black kajal I've ever used and puts much more expensive brands to shame.I like the fact that it's very long lasting, doesn't leave with you raccoon eyes in the morning and is just perfect for creating that ever-coveted cat-eye look and for those of you concerned, it's opthalmologically tested.
- Cybele Brow Mania
Finding a brow liner that suits black hair can be a challenge, but the Cybele Powdery Liner in Ash Brown, which is a neutral medium brown helps you fill in the sparse spots and tame unruly eyebrows in an instant without creating any harsh edges.So unless you have black or brown hair, this may not be the best product for you.However, if you do have darker hair and you're looking for a brow pencil that has the ability to create subtle, natural looking lines then this is an absolute must-have.
- Loewe Aura Eau De Parfum - Tester
The hotly anticipated perfume from Spanish luxury brand Loewe has finally hit stores and let me tell you, there's nothing like it! Either you have it or you don't.One sniff of this fragrance will bring to mind hints of leather, florals and wood base notes.It is seductive without being too obvious and is just perfect for an evening out or a day in.
- Moschino Pink Bouquet Eau De Toilette - Tester
This is a delightfully floral Eau De Toilette that is light and easy to wear for daytime.It combines notes of peach and bergamot with notes of raspberry for a fruity, saccharine scent.This girly fragrance will appeal to those who live in pink and want to have fun above anything else.
- Kerastase Intialiste Advanced Scalp And Hair Concentrate - 60ml
This newbie from Kerastase harnesses the regenerative power of native plant cells along with ceramids and polyphenols to create a magical elixir for stronger and revitalized hair.I've always loved Kerastase products and this serum is no exception, it works great and helps restore shine, volume and softness to dull, damaged hair without greasy build-up.
I've been using this for 3 weeks now and I think it's fair to say
that it's freaking awesome! I honestly did reap the benefits claimed by Kerastase Intialiste.I found my hair to be much more thicker, shinier and fortified.In case anyone is wondering, the application is pretty easy, simply squeeze 2-3 pipettes for fine hair or 4-5 pipettes if you have thicker hair, and gently massage the serum with your fingertips to evenly distribute it over your whole scalp, style as usual and volia! Anticipate a drab to fab hair transformation major enough to leave your girlfriends green with envy.
