February's 2012 Jolie Box

Hi everyone!

My first proper post is going to be on this month Jolie Box.  This is my first box from them and they had came very highly recommended by people, but I have to say I was rather disappointed with it.




First up is the Taaj Himalaya Micellar Water: This is described as "An antioxidant and tonic make up remover that will revitalise and purify skin".  It is a decent sized bottle and smells lovely, I used it for the first time last night and found it lovely, didn't dry my skin out at all!.


Jane Iredale Just Kissed Lip and Cheek stain in Forever Pink: This is a multi purpose stain that adjusts its colour to your mood and temperature.  I love this product!  It comes out in a lovely corally/pink colour which suits my fair skin perfectly!  The only downside is it is teeny tiny but I could see myself purchasing the full sized product.


Lavera Basis sensitive organic hand cream: This is an organic hand cream with shea butter and almond extracts.  I've heard of the brand before but never used anything from it.  Again its a small size, but will fit in my bag so I've always got hand cream on my as I have really dry hands.


Macadamia deep repair masque: This is an ultra conditioning hair masque that will rebuild damaged hair for improved shine and elasticity.  This is stated on the card as a full sized product even though it's a sachet!  I'm excited to try this product as I've heard so much about it!


RMK cleansing oil: This is a cleansing facial oil with a refreshing scent of mint and damascus rose.  This was one of two products which differed from box to box as some boxes got the Kimia Rejuvenating facial system.  Personally I don't use facial oils as I have quite sensitive skin and the ones I have used in the past have irritated my skin but I'm willing to give this a try!  Again it's a small sachet, which is fiddly especially with a facial oil!.


Finally because it was my first box I received the concealer brush from Decembers box.  I seems like a really good brush and has really soft bristles, so looking forward to using it!.


Overall the products where good, but when two of them are sachets (one sachet apparently a full sized product!), two of them tiny sized and only one that I would class as a decent size it makes me a little disappointed!  Still deciding whether to give Jolie Box another chance, will decide soon enough!

What did you think of this months Jolie Box?
