[Review] Vanity Trove June 2013

Hi Everyone,
After giving you all a glimpse of Vanity Trove June 2013, let me tell you about the beautiful surprises, which were there in my Trove...



The various brands to be included in June 2013 were ASTALIFT, APIVITA, KERASTASE, Touch in SOL, NEUTROGENA, CELLILUX, Liese and SKINC. The box had a white cover with pink engraving and the Trove was hot pink, with dark purple tissue wrap. There was a Vanity journal with information on the Month's brands, other beauty and fashion related material and adverts and gift coupons. I feel it added a  nice touch to the whole experience. I received 9 products for June-
1. KERASTASE ELIXIR ULTIMATE OLEO- COMPLEXE, 3ml Vial (Retail Price: S$62 for 125ml) is a lighly fragrant beautifying hair oil for all hair types. It can be used as a conditioner before shampoo or as leave in treatment after shampoo. It contains a combination of camellia, argan, maize and pracaxi oils and Vitamin A, E and F with omega 3 and 6. It gives shine and nourishment to hair. I took few drops on my hand and it seems to be quite light and non greasy. Looks like a promising product for hair care. Value of Sample- S$1.50

2. APIVITA SUNCARE A Light Texture Face Cream for Oily Combination Skin, SPF 30, 2ml  Sachet (Retail Price: S$56 for 50ml) Apivita is a Greek cosmetic brand, using mainly natural ingredients. The cream offers high sun protection , evens skin tone and also doubles up as makeup base. Can be used by men also. Value of Sample- S$2.25

3. APIVITA Express Beauty Green Clay Mask, Sachet (Retail Price: S$58 for 12 Sachets) This is a cleansing mask which when applied for 10 minutes, once or twice a week, eliminates impurities and absorbs excess sebum. It also has antiseptic properties and helps in rejuvenating the tired skin. Value of Sample- S$4.83.

4. APIVITA Cleansing Purifying Tonic Lotion, 75ml bottle (Retail Price: S$36 for 200ml). This is a green tea based cleansing lotion for oily to combination skin, which removes dirt and excess oil and refreshes the skin. Value of Sample- S$13.50.

5. NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST GEL SPF 30 PA++, 5ml Tube (Retail Price: S$25.90 for 30ml). This creamy, non sticky or greasy moisturizing sun protection gel nourishes the dry skin cells upto 5 times more throughout the day for smoother skin. Value of Smaple- S$4.31.

6. Touch in SOL (TIS) In the Skin Renovation BB Cream, 5ml tube (Retail Price: S$23.90 for 35ml) is suitable for sensitive skin, which gives sun protection as well as hydration. TIS has a range of BB Creams to suit all skin types. Value of Sample- S$3.41

7. SKINC REGENERATE VITAMIN A SERUM, 30ml (Retail Price: S$158 for 30ml). This patented Japanese technology is a remedy for dark circles and dullness. Vitamin A keeps the skin healthy by increasing cell metabolism and circulation. The light serum with encapsulated beads has a lovely visual appeal as well. Value of Sample- S$158.00 (Full size)

8. ULTIMATE COLLAGEN, 2X9.5g sachets (Retail Price: S$88 for 30 Sachets). Powdered collagen supplement, which is to be mixed with water or juice and taken with a meal preferably breakfast for healthy joints, bone, skin, hair and nails. Value of Sample- S$5.86.

9. Liese Frizz Styling Milk, 120ml bottle (Retail Price: S$10.90 for 120ml). Light-weight styling milk (with smoothening polymers) to be used onto hair ends for tidy, manageable and frizz free look. Value of Sample- S$10.90.

So, the mix of products explain why the Trove Subscription has a higher price. All the products sound promising and would definitely like to use them for a while and see how they work. It would be fun to receive such surprises every month and if you also love surprises, go for a Vanity Trove subscription at Vanity Trove

[Review] Vanity Trove- Delivering Beautiful Surprises

Hi Lovely People,
As promised in my post last week, bellabox- Beauty in a Box, here I come with another beauty sample box which is quite popular in Singapore- Vanity Trove. The concept is the same as that of other subscription beauty boxes. You subscribe for a monthly fee (SGD 25/ month and no credits, 75 for 3 months and 225 credits, 150 for 6 months with 1050 credits and 300 for a year with 4500 credits) and every month you get a box full of beautiful surprises delivered at your doorstep. Also every 100 credits give you SGD1.00, which when accumulated to SGD 25.00, can be redeemed for a complimentary Trove. It partners with some of the premium beauty brands to send the hand picked 'beautiful surprises' for you every month. Interesting!
So, those were the details!  I subscribed to Vanity Trove and received my first box on Thursday and since then I've been waiting to write about it.
Let me show you how it looks like


Vanity Trove June 2013


A peek into the contents of Vanity Trove June 2013

The theme was 'Summer Crush' and the box was packed with some interesting products. I will talk about the products in detail in my next post. In the meanwhile, I would like to share what was great and not so good about Vanity Trove...

What I loved about Vanity Trove

1. The packing of the Trove looks great and like all women, I love surprises more when they are presented well!
2. There is a Vanity book, which talks about the current theme, the products for the month and other beauty and fashion related stuff.
3. You get to try  new products before actually buying them and sitting at home.
4. You get vouchers for other services like spa, beauty treatments etc.
5. The excitement to open and see what surprises awaits you when you receive your box.

What is Not-so-Great about Vanity Trove
1. The Trove is priced at S$25.00 a month, which is actually the highest price I've come across for such kind of service.
2. The credit conversion rate is 100 credits is S$1.00, seems quite low!
3. There is no online connected beauty store from where you can buy the products you try.

But inspite of all that receiving beauty surprises every month is a wonderful thing that can happen to a woman. So if you would like to subscribe for your own Trove, You may do so at Vanity Trove
Look out for the next post on Contents of Vanity Trove June 2013
