Here is a closer look of what's in September's beauty pack!
MODEL Co. Lip Lacquer Liquid Lipstick (full size, $24.00)

I remember getting a Model Co lipgloss in one of the New Zealand based subscription and I used it to its full capacity! The shade that I got was 'striptease' and it was a perfect peachy lipgloss. I got excited when I saw this liquid lipstick in the beauty pack! It is a good everyday brown nude color that would complement a lot of skin tones. The gloss is very pigmented, gel consistency and is not sticky when applied to the lips. I'm a fan and its a full size product too!

MODEL Co Skincare sample packs
I didn't know that Model Co has a skincare line! Bonus skincare foil packs that are great for one to two time use. It may not be enough for a good first impression, and also not big enough to be able to recommend if these products works great or night! Nevertheless they are great addition to my samples drawer and would come handy for future travels. 

Glam Manicare Express Nail Art (full size $9.99)

Getting your nails done often can be expensive, so it is great that Lust Have It included a mini nail art kit to amp up your nail polish look. We all love a good plain color but sometimes adding a lil' something can make fun to look at! This kit is also great if you are a beginner at doing nail art. 
URIAGE Extra- Rich Dermalogical Cleansing Gel (sample size)
I have never heard of this brand before. I did a little research it is from the same company as the ones who makes BIODERMA and NUXE skincare line. URIAGE  is a french-based product that caters to people with sensitive skin. URIAGE provides a full range of hypoallergenic products formulated with a unique active ingredient, Uriage Thermal Water.(taken from their website here). This is comparable to AVENE skincare line where all their products are thermal water based. I'm interested to try this sample and see if it won't irritate my sensitive acne-prone skin. I believe the full size retails for $34.95.

The Cosmetic Kitchen Macadamia Wax Creme Highlighter (full size, $24.50)

This brand is foreign to me, its one of those underdog products that is not mainstream. My first guess was it was some sort of lipgloss because of the squeeze tube. But when I read the label, it is a creme highlighter! I'm never a fan of any creme highlighter so I'm not sure if I'm going to give this a go. However, the rose gold shade is pretty and the product melts right into the skin when blended. Might have to pass it on or maybe I could use this for another purpose i.e. eyeshadow base.

Urban Skincare Co. Body Balm (travel size, $12.95)

This product size is great for  traveling. The moisturizer contains minerals that nourish, protect, and renew the skin for a firmer, healthier skin. I have the same body balm from CLARINS and have been using that for weeks now. I'm excited to put this to test to see if the claims work. 

Overall, I think the September beauty pack is alright. I like the mixture of skincare, nails, and makeup instead of just skincare which I get iffy about. The total value of the pack is around $74 which is great for a $19.95 subscription fee! The products I'm most excited to use is the liquid lipstick and the creme highlighter!

Have you got your September Lust Have It pack? 


Thanks for stopping by!
