Violetbox is an Australian beauty sample subscription box which is priced at $22.95 AUD a month to received at least 5-6 samples. I have really been enjoying Violetbox because they tend to have more full sized products in their boxes than other Australia monthly beauty subscription boxes.
What was in my September Violetbox:
POLISHED LONDON Nail Enamel (RRP $8.00 AUD) Full size
My nail polish came in the shade Buckingham Blue which is a lovely teal colour. I brought a blazer in this exact colour the other week so now I can match my jacket to my nails yay.
GIRLACTIK Eyeshadow (RRP $23.00 AUD) Full size
My eye shadow came in a baby blue shade called Dreamy. I'm not a huge user of eye shadow and I don't think this blue would suit me so I will be passing this on to someone else.
STARLOOKS Ultra Olive Gem Pencil (RRP $21.50 AUD) Full size
I am really loving this olive eye pencil. I normally only do black or brown eye liner but I think with this product I am willing to give olive a go. I haven't given it a proper test drive, but after doing a swatch on my hand I'm so excited by it. I love the micro glitter and how it looks kind of golden.
FOLTENE Nail Treatment (RRP $29.95 AUD) Full size
I've seen other people complain about getting this product because it is boring but I don't mind it. I have used this a couple of times, but I would probably have to make a bigger effort of applying this regularly to see if it does make my nails stronger.
SCANDALOUS Fabulously Flirty Dry Shampoo (RRP $16.95 AUD) Full size
I've never actually used dry shampoo before, so I was pleased with getting this go I can finally give it a go.
Verdict:
I was really happy with my box, 5 full sized items is always something to get excited by in my opinion. I will be using or trying everything in this box except for the eyeshadow mainly because I feel like it will be wasted if I keep it. Once again I think Violetbox has done an awesome job, and I look forward to seeing what will arrive in my October box.
It's a good box, isn't it? A nice mix of products. I agree with you about the nail treatment - I'm happy to have received it because it's something different (although yes, I'll need to apply it more regularly to get an idea of how good it is). I also got the blue eyeshadow - foo! - I've received so many blue eyeshadows in sub boxes and I always pass them on because blue looks rubbish on me. Enjoy the products - your matching teal jacket sounds nice ; )
