April 2012 Lust Have It Review
 |
|
The ladies over at LustHaveIt tried something new this month and packaged the goodies in a makeup case:
The packet is cute and helpful for keeping all the samples in. Hopefully I won’t get one every month though as I have too many of these as it is!
So what did we get?
i Nuovi Glitteratti Cosmetic Glitter
To be honest I didn’t exactly give this product a fair trial. I like glitter but what am I supposed to do with cosmetic glitter? How does it stay on my face? and where do I put it?
emerginC Scientific Organics
I lurved these products. They smell so good, (just like orange!) and the product was so delightful to use. The Phytocell Cream was definitely a Lust Have until I saw the price of $110… I’d love to spend that much on face cream but I just can’t bring myself to do it.
DeLorenzo Elements Ocean Mist Sea Salt Styling Spray
I think I’ve DeLorenzo products in every Lust Have It package I’ve had thus far.
And I haven’t liked a single one.
To be fair I can’t say it’s the DeLorenzo products I don’t like. It could be hair products in general.
Anyway, I tried this product 3 times just to make sure. But it wasn’t for me, my hair felt sticky and gross.
True Solutions All Day Tinted Moisturising Cream
I don’t wear foundation and only on occasion I wear tinted moisturiser so I was a bit *yawn* when I saw this. But what do you know this is an awesome product! I haven’t been wearing this everyday but when I’ve needed a foundation it’s been fabulous!
Spa Fresh Blends Romantic Discovery
I like a good bubble bath or a relaxing bath with essential oils so I thought this would be a fun product to try.
My issue with this product is that when I got out of the bath there was little bits of dried flowers (I think they were dried flowers?) all over me and I felt like I needed a shower to wash it all off. And that kinda defeated the whole purpose of having a bath for me.
Again, it was a mixed bag for me…but I’m still having fun with Lust Have It.

I think you and me have similar hair… I haven’t tried the DeLorenzo Elements Ocean Mist Sea Salt Styling Spray, but I sometimes use Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray ( http://www.sephora.com/surf-spray-P280513 ), I think it’s probably the same sort of thing. Anyway, I find if I put it on my hair right after showering it doesn’t do anything awesome – it’s sticky and sorta yuck.
But, if I use it on Day 2 hair that is mostly natural (not straightened or anything) then it will give it some nice texture and wave, in a windswept model way. (I wish!). But it works better on Day 2 hair then clean / fresh hair. Maybe you’ll get a better result that way, if you haven’t tried it already.

I don’t think I tried it on day 2 hair, only either wet straight from the shower or freshly dried.
I ended up giving it away after the 18 year old daughter of friends of mine asked me if I was trying to grow dreadlocks.
