Thank you Sephora, Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, and Kora!

I was lucky to be selected to receive some new products to try courtesy of Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora Organics, and Sephora.

I am very appreciative of this generous gift!

 

The products include:

 

Nudestix #BABEBOSS Faves Box, a limited edition box that has six pencils in matte, cream, and gel formulas handpicked by Nudestix co-founders Ally and Taylor, in addition to some of the brand's favorite beauty influencers.

 

 Nudestix Swatches (added 5/10)

Nirvana Rose Dry Shampoo Review: (added 5/10)

Spoiler

I was quite impressed! This fragrance with notes of Rose de Mai, Geranium, and Vetiver is lovely. The mist was fine, and left no weird white residue in my medium brunette hair. I wash my hair every other day, and the slight oil in my hair was eliminated by the product. It did also give some volume at the roots without feeling heavy which is great, as I don't like the feeling of a lot of product in my hair. The fragrance is subtle to moderate in strength, without being overpowering. I was excited to try the Nirvana Rose scent first, because I have not smelled it before. 

 

Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil, described as a luxurious, powerful yet delicate treatment oil for the face and neck. It has antioxidant and essential fatty acid rich oils to smooth, nourish and brighten the skin. Kora Organics is founded by Miranda Kerr.

 

Initial Review of the Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil: (added 5/11)

Spoiler

Initial thoughts on the Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil:

It has a sweet, yet pleasant fragrance I would describe as fruity/rose. The scent is quite strong and lingered on my skin for several hours after application. I have sensitive, combo skin with dry cheeks and an oily nose and forehead. On the box it says the oil is suitable for all skin types. My skin has not reacted or broken out, and the dryness in my cheeks already feels improved by the oil. Here is a photo of the ingredients for anyone curious about it. I will report back again in a few days as I continue to use the product.

 

 

The gift box was so beautifully presented, with everything individually wrapped, and even some chocolate! ❤

 

I will report back my thoughts as I try each product, and post swatches of the Nudestix pencils. 🙂

Just got my UPS shipping notification. Looks like it'll be here some time next week. 😄 I'm so excited after seeing these on you @angel7594.

Re: Thank you Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora, and Sephora!

I am very excited for you and the others to be receiving your packages soon @Asche! ❤

Re: Thank you Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora, and Sephora!

Is everyone just having a great hair day or did I miss the memo? I was just envying k617's hair and now yours!  I've been seriously considering bangs too and this might push me over the edge even though I know it's a bad idea with my hair texture and cowlicks.

 

I know, I know....this was not the point of the post.  Your lip color looks lovely too, but I'm seriously fangirling over your hair!  

Re: Thank you Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora, and Sephora!

I can't get over how perfect your hair is lol. Such a lovely lip color too!! 

Re: Thank you Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora, and Sephora!

Ohhh I love this one on you @angel7594!! What a stunning colour. 🙂

Re: Thank you Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora, and Sephora!

@angel7594 What a gorgeous color on you! You look beautiful! And so happy you received this gift ❤Plus chocolate!! Such a fun bunch of things to try. I really like the Nirvana Black Dry Shampoo so I'm happy to hear the other scents perform well too. 

Re: Thank you Nudestix, Elizabeth and James, Kora, and Sephora!

Oh, wow!  Congratulations to all the lovely BTers who received this!  Enjoy, ladies!  You deserve it! Heart
