Her Fashion Box - January 2014 review

I was reaaaalllyyy excited to receive this month's Her Fashion Box. HFB is by far the best beauty subscription box and I've loved every box so far. This month's, i'm happy to say, is no exception:


 
As you can see it is choc-a-block! At $39.95 a month it sounds expensive but you really do get a lot for your money, including fashion, lifestyle and beauty items - a lot of which have been full size. The packaging is fabulous too, so sturdy. They are usually on time with shipping to which makes a big difference and their customer service is brilliant. 5 starts to HFB!! Anyway, onto what I actually received this month, in the classy box:
 
 
HFB Something in the Water Scarf
RRP $24.95
Ohhh what a lovely scarf. At first I thought it was weird to receive a scarf mid-summer however their magazine (also included in the box) shows a girl wearing it as a sarong skirt - excellent idea - and works out well for me as I'm heading down to Mollymook on Sunday. Awesome!!
 
HFB Pebble purse
RRP $7.95
This is such a cute little coin purse. It is of reasonably good quality as well, something you'd see at Collette or Lovisa or places like that. I don't often use coin purses but i've never had one so we'll see. Otherwise i'm sure I can store my earrings or something in there.
 
HFB Ripple necklace
RRP $24.95
This is something I don't think I would ever buy - but I actually like this! I like the perspex and all the jewels. The only thing is that its gold and I don't usually wear gold... however I'm sure once I've got a fake tan on I can rock this one.
 
 
Cantik Palms notebook by Cantik Swimwear
RRP $19.95
What a great addition to this month's box. This notebook is lovely and summery and quite thick too, i'd say about 200 pages? The pages are blank so this will be great for a diary. I'm getting married this year so I might even add this to my wedding planner for notes!
 
Pocket Manicure Kit
RRP $7.95
This is a super cute little manicure kit, this will definately get some use. I'm going to keep it in my car and also take it travelling.
 
 
Urban Rituelle Lip Balm - Mango
RRP $9.95
I love Urban Rituelle. This lip balm smells amazing too. Mango, yum! This lip balm is moiturising and also gives your lips a lovely shine. So happy to have received this!! The HFB magazine gives an offer of 20% off at www.urbanrituelle.com.au/her-fashion-box using the code save20
 
Ultra3 lipstick - Cherry Wine
RRP ?
This must be my bonus for filling in last month's survey as there is no mention of this product in the magazine. It is a red lipstick, which I don't often wear as it makes my teeth look horribly yellow. I think i'll gift this one.
 
Jbronze Face Flawless Tan (RRP $24.95 30ml) received 5ml sample
JBronze shimmer instant illuminiser (RRP $24.95 100ml) received 2 x 5ml sample
I had no idea Jennifer Hawkins had a tan range out so was suprised when I saw these. It will be good to try these out but i'm crazy obsessed with my current fake tan (by Garnier) so would take a lot to sway me. I'm excited to try out the illumiser though! Glad i got two samples of this one. I also got a voucher code HFB20 to use at www.adoretanning.com, to receive $20 off when you spend $50.
 
 
Babe Green Tea Scrub (30g)
RRP $21.95 for 200g
I've never heard of this brand so it was good to see something I haven't heard of before. Apparently this scrub is designed to help fight lumps and bumps in problem areas which is always a good thing.... will be good to try this out.
 
 
Muesli for me HFB mix 45g
Yum, looking forward to trying out this yummy custom made mix!! It has goji berries, coconut, cranberries, seed mix and chia seeds. YUM! We also got a 20% discount on purchases at www.muesliforme.com using the code nomnom. Not sure if I would ever buy this kind of thing, but you never know. I'll jump on the site to see if it is worth it!
 
Green smoothie Co 'Green Is Good' smoothies 2 x 10g sachets
RRP $15 (5 x 10g)
We got these last month so i'm not sure why they are repeating them. My sachets from last month are still sitting in the cupboard.....
 
So there you go! I loved this month's box (with the exception of the smoothie co sachets). HFB do such a fabulous job and i'm super excited to see what they have in the next couple of months!!
