It might sound unreal to some but My Envy Box is designed to give you just the same.
It is your portion of luxury sized and latest beauty samples in a beautiful and elegant box, reaching you every single month!
This month's box (July'2016) has been curated by Wed Me Good and happens to be a monsoon wedding special kinda edition. It has been rightly named a 'Band Baaja Beauty' box!
Before proceeding to the contents of the box, let's have a first look (I know, you are as excited as I am!)
I was totally mesmerised by the vibrant pinkish hue and golden detailing.
Now, was the time to open the magical box.
So here we go . . .
On opening, I saw these 3 cards first
The first one called as 'Band Baja Beauty wedding check list' mentions the contents of the box and how can we put them into use.
It also mentions the full size as well as Envy Sample and price of a full size product.
This gives you a fair idea of not just the products you receive every month but also their prices.
The second card mentions the ongoing 'I love my Envy box contest' wherein you need to take a selfie with your Envy Box and post it on facebook and Instagram tagging your friends to win some exciting goodies! Sounds fun, right?
And on the other side of the same is a discount offer their Olivia Dar Edition.
The third card is actually a 'tippy tippy tap' game we used to play as kids. Remember?
This one is to help you plan you wedding day with a help of Wed Me Good and their app. It also provides you a few tips regarding wedding preperations while you play this nostalgic game.
After reading and enjoying the game for a while, I moved ahead to check out the beauty products offered by this month's box.
SKINYOGA MARIGOLD FOOT SOAK
What is it?
A beautifully yellowish tinted powdered foot soak, it is aimed to relieve you of aching and burning feet.
This foot soak helps to de-tan and de-stress feet and muscles and also help clean.
To my delight, the product is fragrance, preservatives and paraben-free.
Why in this box?
Since this is a wedding edition, a foot care product is obviously indispensable.
Hours of shopping, sitting, walking for that perfect trousseau and dress trials. Also, long sangeet and pre-wedding party nights make your feet the most vulnerable yet neglected part indeed.
Quantity?
Size: 100g
Price: Rs. 695 for 100g
This full size sample will easily last me for as many as 8-10 soaks.
My verdict?
Loved it totally. A must have in every bride's de-stressing box.
What is it?
A gorgeously scented hair perfume with a combination of fragrances of Tea Rose, Light Woods and Musk. It is alcohol free and claims to make your luscious locks not just smell amazing but also shiny and smooth.
Why in this box?
All eyes are on the bride on her D-Day. Which means she needs to take care of her skin and manes well in advance.
A few drops of this soothing oil will nourish the strands and give them a good shine.
Even after the wedding, this fragrant oil will help keep the monsoon's unpleasant smells at bay, thanks to this product.
Quantity?
Size: 3ml
Price: Rs. 5,600 for 120ml
This vial is good for 3-5 uses.
My Verdict?
Well, to be honest I had never thought of the importance of a fragrant oil but using too many styling products at ones leaves my hair not just dull and dry looking but also an amalgamation of too many unpleasant smells.
This one is a definite product to have in your box.
KAMA KUMKIMADI AYURVEDIC FACE SCRUB
What is it?
A face scrub which is formulated with as many as 12 precious ingredients like saffron, almond, lotus, Goat's milk, Glycerin etc.
It claims to smoothen fine lines, even out skin tone and give a lovely bridal glow to your skin.
Why in this box?
A glowing skin is every bride's ultimate desire and she spends endless days, nights and money to achieve that prior to her wedding day.
A blend of all natural ingredients, this scrub will help you achieve all of that and in a skin friendly way.
Quantity?
Size:5g
Price: Rs.995 for 50g
This tube would last for about 4-5 uses.
My verdict?
The best part about this scrub is, its Ayurvedic with no harsh chemicals in it.
Most of us these days are extremely cautious about our skin specially the face products one uses and so an all natural product is definitely a welcome breeze.
However, I would have loved to receive a bigger sample of this one.
KAMA HAND CREAM
what is it?
It is an enriching hand cream made with organic cold pressed sweet almond oil, coconut oil, cocoa butter, Aloe Vera etc.
This hand cream is aimed to reduce dryness and also nourish, soften your hands.
Why in this box?
Well manicured hands are a bride's delight and onlookers too.
This cream with all natural ingredients will give you lovely and soft hands so that your rings and mehendi looks even prettier.
Quantity?
Size: 5g
Price: Rs.645 for 60g
This tube will last for 4-5 uses.
My verdict?
The cream smell great and is extremely nourishing too.
It does not sticks to your hands after applying and yet retains the desired moisture.
I wished the quality would have been a bit more but never mind!
GULNARE GLOW GIRL SHIMMERING DRY OIL
What is it?
This is a light-weight, amazingly scented and subtly shimmery body oil to give you a sun-kissed bronzed look.
It is a dry oil which means it will not leave an oily feel on your skin yet moisturise, scent and bronze it evenly and beautifully.
