I had an interesting delivery yesterday - a box of goodies from Carmine! As you know, Carmine is now no more and has been merged with Glossybox. I won a 3 month subscription for Carmine just before they announced it was to be closed and, shortly afterwards, they said they would send me a box of goodies to make up for it! I hadn't previously been a subscriber to Carmine, but from reading other blogs, it was certainly the box I preferred, so I was sad to see it go.
So what did I get:
Diego Dalla Palma Mini Lipstick - quite like the look of this and from a quick swatch, it seems quite creamy and moisturising.
I-Pout New CID Lipstick - this looks like a versatile my-lips-but-better shade. Not too sure about the packaging or the gimmicky 'torch' feature though!
Soft Paris Strawberry Balm - two of these arrived! First impressions are that it smells very nice but I haven't tried it yet.
Eyeco Fat Eye Stick in Charcoal - I like this shade but I fear it will crease very easily on my oily lids!
Vera Valenti Pencil Liner in Black - this feels quite scratchy and not all that pigmented. Will give it a go though.
Weleda Pomegranate Creamy Body Wash - I'm excited to try this as I love Weleda products!
Blingtone Myface Cosmetics Eyeshadow Silver Screen - this looks quite glittery, I think it will need to be used with a good primer as otherwise it looks prone to fallout!
KMS Quick Blow Dry Spray - I've heard about this from other blogs and wanted to try it for a while, anything that speeds up my morning routine would be good!
Time Technology Cream - I don't know much about this or what type of skin it is aimed at but I'm sure it will find a home!
Vera Valenti Polish - A bright pink shade which I already have several dupes for.
Andrea Fullerton Polish in Joanna - I haven't tried any Andrea Fullerton polishes before and I like the shimmer in this.
Memo EDP samples in Sundance and Inle - I've never heard of this perfume so I will add it to my ever growing box of perfume samples!
Japonesque Smudger Brush - another brush in my collection is always useful and I haven't tried any Japonesque brushes before.
I'm looking forward to trying the KMS spray and Weleda Body Wash in particular.
Have you tried any of these products?
How nice of them was that? I like the look of the Japonesque brush and KMS Blow Dry Spray! x
