As you may know from our links on facebook, Denise and I decided to indulge in the Mystery Gift Box promotion beauty baron (+ elf) were having! We have decided to do a collective haul since we each got some stuff thanks to this promotion!
Martina's Haul
I decided to splurge a little on make up this month since 1 All of my favourite products hit pan, 2 I have my graduation in a few days (excited!!!!)
So I opted to order 3 seperate orders in order to get 3 Mystery Boxes, unfortunately Beauty Baron had another offer going on, if you got a sticker on your mystery box you're entitled to another free gift, unfortunately none of my mystery boxes included a sticker :-(
I received 3 orders together and the other order two days after.
First two orders!!! |
The first order I opened included the Daily Brush Cleaner (which I re-ordered) and the new Make Up Lock and Set and Mascara Primer + Mystery Box Number 1!
After two days of waiting Order number 3 arrived!!!!!
On to the part I know you all have been waiting for, the Mystery Boxes!!
Mystery Box Number 1
I received the New Beauty Book the Natural Eye edition and three nail polishes in Twinkle, Glitter Glam and Smoky Brown. I loved this Mystery box not only since I love the Beauty encyclopedias/ books but because the only product I had was Smoky Brown!
Mystery Box Number 2
The second Mystery Box included a Beauty Book, the Smoky eye edition, the new Smudge Brush, Nail file kit and a nail polish in Golden Goddess. This is probably my favourite out of all the three Mystery boxes since there is a diversity of products plus I only have the Golden Goddess Nail polish.
Last but not least Mystery Box Number 3
Funnily enough this mystery box is identical to the one my friend Lara received! It includes two nail polishes one in Smoky Brown and Twinkle which are doubles since I received them in the other Mystery Boxes and I already had Smoky brown, a mineral eyeshadow in outdoorsy (I LOVE IT and I usually hate green eyeshadow) and a bamboo lip brush!
This is my whole order including the Mystery Boxes (sorry for the whole mess in the background!)
Denise's Haul:
I made 2 orders, but only received one of them :(:( I've been sending e-mails to E.L.F. Let's just hope they will send my lost order (and the mystery box). It's NO FAIR!! I'm so disappointed that it's been lost. I know it's not E.L.F's fault... but still .. . I feel like a cry baby haha
Anyways. This order was quite small. I bought a mineral lipstick in Cheerful Cherry, which I absolutely LOVE, and the new mineral Personal Blend foundation in Medium. The product comes out little by little . . so of course, takes ages to apply full face. . .
I was so not happy with the things in the mystery box.... They sent 3 nail polishes (2 I already had..) Smoky brown, Twinke and Glitter Glam and a bamboo concealer brush. As I'm not a mineral concealer fan, I won't be using this one. . Here's a pic:
The smoky brown nail polish is my own..because I gave the one I received to a friend that was with me when I open the parcel . .
Let's just hope E.L.F will re-send me the other order... plus the mystery box. Fingers crossed ;)
We hope you enjoyed this post!!
