Violet Box this month seems to have adopted a Nail theme with three different full size nail products. I was super excited with their sneak peek of a range of Sinful Nail polish that was in this month's box. I have slight mixed feelings about this month's box even though it seems to have a nail theme. Absolutely love that there is a nail polish, and cuticle cream but on the other hand I'm just not really feeling the emery board. (Jump to 2 if you want more of my thoughts). But very happy with the other products. Keep posted for the October Violet Box, and VB are offering a discount code for $10 off your first violet box enter VIOLETBOX10.
1. The Vintage Cosmetic Company Floral Slanted Tweezers RRP $14.95
"Gorgeous slanted tweezers made from high quality stainless steel...signature floral on one side and soft vintage cream on the other...perfect for brow shaping and must have for every girls make-up bag."
These tweezers feature a gorgeous floral side, they are quite different to my usual tweezers especially when pressing the sides together, I don't feel like it has much of a grip for the hair since I can't apply the level of pressure I would like compared to my usual tweezers.
2. The Vintage Cosmetic Company Emery Board RRP $4.95
"Use this gorgeous emery board to shape and smooth away any rough edges... suitable for use on soft, weak and fragile nails."
It features the same floral design as the tweezers but what is there to say further about an emery board? Nothing much, it does what it needs to do but it is perfect to carry around with its adorable design.
3. NS-5 Cuticle & Nail Complex 15g (full size) RRP $9.95
"Rich emollient formula absorbs equickly to nourish and restore dry, ragged cuticles, hangnails and split fingers. Silicea helps strengthen nails, hydrolysed Keratin restores elasticity, prevents nails from flaking and breaking."
This product will be featured in an upcoming review, it might take a tad while but I'm hoping it can repair some of the damage my right hand nails suffer.
4. Sinful Nail Polish RRP $4.95 (Hazard)
"Sinful Colours nail enamel has a long wearing, chip-resistant, professional formulas. Available in 69 runway inspired shades. Made in the USA, Toluene, formaldehyde and DBP free."
5. Eleven Australia's Miracle Hair Treatment (sample size)
"Lightweight leave in treatment delivers eleven benefits your hair will love. Suited to all hair types, simply apply to damp hair."
This baby smells like coconut, and if you're a fan of coconut products you most likely will love this. I, on the other hand am not a huge fan of coconut smelling products even though I know how good coconut oil is good for your hair. My dislike for coconut scented products began in Fiji... but that's another story for another day. But I absolutely LOVE drinking and eating coconut, it has a different smell than the scented products do. This product will also be featured in a review, I haven't tried this yet since I'm using another hair product at the moment, but I will get around to it soon.
6. Timeless truth Q10 Caviar Nourishing Mask RRP $7 (1 Piece)
"To enhance skin's natural beauty & preserve its elasticity, helps reduce signs of ageing. For a healthier and nourished skin, you can't afford not to use it!"
Not sure of the benefits of this mask but I will have my mother try it to see how she likes it. But generally you can't go wrong with a mask, it gives you a little temporary boost of moisture and in terms of reducing signs of ageing it would require frequent use.
I love the NS 5 cuticle and nail complex. Natural goodness, healing my crappy nails! It has been a winner in my books- i hope you enjoy it!
