This months theme is 'Fresh Picks' for Spring.
The Knobs:
- Pacifica: Mineral Eyeshadow Duo #1
- Hang Ten: Classic Sport SPF 50
- Nailtini polish in Bloody Mary
- pur~lisse: pur~moist hydra~balance moisturizer
The Bobs:
I was interested in trying this due to the early high heat temperatures where I live. It is very refreshing to spray on the face or arms.
The can does provide a very convenient travel container and it is very cooling.
But there's nothing special about it. It's literally just water in a can.
The tones for this duo are very flattering and light. It does take some building for full pigmentation and there is can be significant fallout. I had to wear eye primer to get this product to stay on my lids.
But it does look really nice and fresh so I will be getting a lot use out of this.
Nailtini has some really nice nail polishes.
I don' have any bright cherry reds so I was very excited to see this in my bag!
It applies smoothly and can take two coats to be fully opaque. A good deal of chipping appears after 24 hours so a top coat is highly advised.
Hang Ten is a brand I'm unfamiliar with. I burn very easily and never tan. Having a travel size SPF 50 sunblock in my purse is always a good idea!
Sunblock has a very specific smell. However, this tube really didn't have much of a smell.
There's only enough product for 2-4 uses, depending on where you apply. I may be purchasing the full size. (:
pur~moist is a very nice moisturizer. The smell is very light and quite pleasant. I have combination skin and did not notice any oil build up or flakyness when using pur~lisse. This is a very small sample but enough to last a bout a week or so.
The full size seems to go for around $55, which is pretty pricey.
Final Thoughts:
I really like the variety this month and getting to try so many different product types/brands! A very good mix of skin care and makeup. A full size eye shadow duo, nail polish and water spray is worth much more than $10. An excellent value!
