Hey cuties!
Welcome back to my blog! ♥
Welcome back to my blog! ♥
At the beginning of September one of my favorite German drug stores, Rossmann, held a giveaway on facebook. They gave away 5000 beauty-related blind boxes, you just had to be lucky enough to pick the right box on the giveaway page. They do this at the beginning of every month but I've never been lucky enough - until now!
I won one of the boxe in September, got my voucher in October and picked it up as soon as I got that!
The box was full of great things with an value of around 50€ or more but because of the voucher I only had to pay 5€! Awesome! I wasn't disappointed!
The box
Let me show you the items! ♥
Make Up Revolution Ultra Strobe Balm Palette
When I opened the box, this was the first thing that caught my eye. The colors are really shiny, kinda metallic and really pretty! There is pink, light blue, light purple and brown highlighter and I can't wait to try them all! I think you could also use them as part of your eyeshadow. I tried the light pink one (second one of the top row) already and loved it with pink blush!!
Cocos fase mask
I really love face masks so I was happy to have gotten this one. It's made for all types of skin so I've already tested it. Afterwards my skin felt really relaxed and the smell of coconuts made my home-spa day perfect!
Isana Soft Lip Balm Vanilla
The smell of this lip balm is amazing! The balm is like a ball so it's easy to apply. The shape reminded me of the overrated EOS lipbalms. But hey, the ones from Isana are almost the same, plus they're cruelty free!
Silicone Make Up Sponge
To be honest I've never seen a make up sponge made of silicone before. The back says that this material is better to apply wet make up because a regular sponge would eat a lot of make up while a silicone sponge won't. I haven't tried it yet especially since I apply my make up with my fingers.
Cat style Sheet-Mask
I've seen those animal print sheet-masks in the past so I had to giggle when I discovered this one. I haven't tried it yet but maybe I should do it when my boyfriend is visiting me again. Who doesn't want a human with a cat face?!
Alterra Pomegranate Hand Cream
Hand creams are awesome, especially in winter because my skin always feels super dry and like breaking. This cream tastes so amazing. Plus it's 100% vegan! What a great catch!
Rival de Loop Contouring Stick and Cream Highlighter
I always wanted to practice highlighting and it seems like the god of make up is trying to force me to finally strart. The contouring stick seems to be a bit too bit to do precise contouring but I think I have to try it before I judge. The cream highlighter is not too shiny so perfect for a less extravagant look. I will have to try it soon too.
Frosh Soap for daily use
This bottle of soap is a simple soap for washing your hands. I haven't tried it yet because my other soap isn't empty yet. But the brand Frosch is only producing 100% vegan articles and doesn't test on animals.
Revlon kohl
I also got this simple, black kohl of the brand Revlon. Too bad that I still have a lot of eyeliners and kohles from my "deep dark black eyeliner" times a few years ago. I only use liquid eyeliner on my eyelid now and not kohl on my lower waterline any longer.
Plus Revlon sadly exports to China, which means that they test on animals. I can't support this brand.
Isana hair shampoo Almond Milk
I'm always happy to have good-smelling shampoo which at least tries to help my hair. But the name "Almond Milk, Milk protein with Almonds" made me wonder, so I googled the ingredients. Turned out there is real cow's milk in this shampoo (hell why??). So I decided not to use it and gave it to my boyfriend. It smelled good at least.
They also included a cute candle which totally matches my interior! Pink and white!
There was also a brosure with four coupons in the box.
20% off on another Silicone Sponge
2,00 € off on an Make Up Revolution item (SO GONNA USE THIS!)
0,40 € off another Frosch soap
20% off any Revlon kohl
I just noticed that I didn't take a photo of the box of condoms which were included too. My bad. :'D
Conclusion: All in all I was super satisfied with the products I got. I will use almost all of them and was totally worth the 5 € I spent on the box. They included different types of items and I think that everyone of the winners got at least a few items which interested them.
My fave? The Make Up Revolution Strobing Palette!
What would have been your personal fave?
Have you ever bought a blind box? Or won a similar giveaway?
Thank you so much for reading! ♥
Yours, Kanon
