Sample bar May Review, NZ birch box

SAMPLE BAR MAY

     Glam pack

May glam pack came very quickly, Sample bar teamed with Life pharmacy for this months limited edition glam pack, kind of inspired for Mother's day. (I guess thats why is early, we needed it before Sunday). We also got a voucher for life pharmacy for $10 off any of the full size products from this months pack. Yay for discounts.!
YELLOW! YELLOW! YELLOW!


LIMITED EDITON





































the first product I pulled out was the SHISEIDO PORE SMOOTHING CORRECTOR, this product is designed as a base for your foundation, basically it smooths out your pores (duh!) but it also prevents shine for an even matte finish, it makes your skin feel velvety smooth. I tried this out and i really liked the way it felt on my skin and made my foundation look, no bumps or holes.
value: $25.80 5mL











The next product was the PREVAGE FACE ADVANCED ANTI-AGING SERUM, i think this was supposed to be for the mum side of it, or maybe for us to try to see if we would like to get it of our mums for Mother's Day. this serum is an anti-oxidadant to help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and discoloration. I don't like the way this smells, and I don't think i need help with the above but you can't review something without using it first. It doesn't feel like anything going on to your skin i think it's just one of those things that only time would tell if it truly works.
value: $29.90 5mL (you would hope it works at $299 for full size)

We go another mascara this month, we haven't had one if a few months now so I guess thats okay :)
LANCOME HYPERNOSE CUSTOM WEAR VOLUME MASCARA, designed to give 6 times more volume, it isn't supossed to clump or smear, a real issue I have when it comes to mascara. 
value: $18.33






perfume Sample this month, firstly what i like about this is it comes in a teeny weeny spray bottle, I hate perfume samples in the little tubes that you can't actually wear properly as you have to tip it on.  I love the VIVA LA JUICY perfume. i may have to go out and buy this it smells super sweet and fruity, that probably explains the description of mandarin, wild berries, honey suckle, gardenia and wild amber. mmm!
value; $5.20













the 5th and final product this month was CLINIQUE COLOUR SURGE STAY MATTE EYSHADOW, who doesn't love eyeshadow, and matte eyeshade is very wearable, the colors are great for everyday wear, unfortunately the french vanilla showed very little pigment on my skin tone as they were to similar but i do like the other two, night plum (center) and stone violet (top) great crease colors.
value: unknown  









Final thoughts, this was a good glam pack, nothing really excited me but I do love the perfume so it created excitement. the only disappointment for me was the serum but i think if i was older/wiser i might have loved this one too, I'm not gonna rate this one, it was a limited edition so this can be a limited edition review. 


go get you some xx
