Luxebox - April 2012

 I got my April Luxe box this morning! (FINALLY.. :\) and Yes. it is May already. I have no idea why it came passed April..but I was happy that it came at last! I always feel like a little kid on Christmas in this time of the month :) But I really don't like the idea of luxe box being shipped in the end of every month, instead of in the beginning... Oh, well. Let's just hope that they listen to all the complaints and do something about this soon.


They came in this nice black square box.
The products are wrapped with a black tissue paper, plus a customized sticker. How cute :)

So these are the five products that I got this month: (from left to right) Essie Nail Polish in 784 Armed & Ready, CHI Silk Fusion, Seche Ridge Filling Base Coat, Pantene Pro-V Aqua Light Shampoo and Conditioner.

 Product details (According to Luxebox)

- Essie Nail Polish (784 Armed & Candy): Today Essie Nail Polish has grown to be one of the industry's most popular professional polish brands. Due to Essie's long-lasting formula, Essie Nail Polish has been worn by many celebrities including Princess Kate Middleton on her wedding day.
(Full-Size: 15 mL $8.00 )
 * This one was the one that I chose to reserve among the three products which I was provided in "First In Line Program"

- Seche Ridge Filling Base Coat: Contains finely ground quarts crystals that work very effectively to not only fill ridges in the nail plate, but also help disguise nail imperfections. Seche Base has an incomparable bonding ability and is specially formulated to give nail polish the best anchor to hold on to.
(Full-Size: 15mL $7.00)

- CHI Silk Fusion: This leave in reconstructing treatment, enriched with pure natural silk, wheat and soy proteins protects your hair against thermal styling and environmental damages while giving your hair incredible lustre. Alcohol free, enriched with pure silk and wheat and soy proteins.
(Full-Size: 180mL $33.00)

- Pantene Pro-V Aqua Light Shampoo + Conditioner: Congratulations! You have been selected to try the new Aqua Lite Shampoo and Conditioner from Pantene's professional hair care line. The aqua Light range has a lot of new innovative ways of achieving weightlessness, using things like water-soluble ingredients and light gel formulations.
(Full-Size: Shampoo and Conditioner both 375mL $6.00)

* Here is the swatch for the Essie nail polish (784 Armed & Ready). It's a gorgeous dark grey colour with red and gold shimmers. It almost reminds me of China glaze Recycle, but without the shimmers. I would say this polish is the shimmery sister of China glaze Recycle! I love the colour but it is a kinda fall/winter colour for me, so I won't be wearing this as often but I am sure that I would adore this colour during winter time!

Without flash

With flash: you can definitely see the shimmers in this one. 

I am actually pretty pleased by this month's luxebox since I got TWO nail products from my two favourite nail polish brands. In fact, I have never gotten a nail polish from them ever since I've been subscribed. 
Also, I was having an issue with these ugly horizontal ridges on my thumb nails which I have no idea why it happened, so I got pretty excited to try this Seche base coat which is suppoed to help with that issue. :D

Anyways, I am very excited to try out all these products and I will probably post a review on the base coat in the near future!

Thank you so much for reading :D
