LUJO Box Unboxing and Review for August 2019

August Lujo Box

I love beauty subscription boxes, and feel that it is one of the best innovative styles of marketing. With a fixed subscription fee, you get to try some amazing beauty brands and find your best match. The beauty subscription boxes are also a great gifting option. 

A good beauty subscription box can make or break your day [and skin too] So it is imperative to find one and go for it. 

Off late, I have stopped investing in Beauty boxes at large. I have opted for a couple of boxes only that I regularly try and talk about.

Lujo box is one of them. 

In this post, let's talk about the August Lujo Box, watch the unboxing videos, check the different products and see whether it is worth investing or not.
The Content

After a no-box July, and quite some transportation hassles, I got my August box. Refer my preview videos on the Instagram stories. I have run a small poll asking if you had like to see an IGTV video or a YouTube Video.

A majority of you voted for the YouTube Video and here I am. You can watch the Unboxing video on this link or at below.

The content this month ranged from Face cleanser to Foot mask. All in the premium full-size.

Discount Code

Use the code "Ekta10" to get a whole 10% discount on any of your Lujo Box Subscription.




The Unboxing Video

I have unboxed the video last week to find some new brands like Tuzba. watch this video to know more.

What I Liked about this month's box

1) The fact that a lot of cruelty-free brands were included
2) All full-size products
3) Products that can be useful on a regular basis.

If you like this box or any of the Lujo box, you have my coupon code. Go ahead and gift yourself a box.

XOXO,

Haute Kutir

Top Five Lipstick Hack Every Girl Should Follow

Perfect Lipstick?

Aww, there is nothing as accomplished to be called as perfect lipstick [have not found one yet]. Perfection is all about applying lipstick in the right way!

If that expensive lip color which you bought with a lot of heart, and ahem bucks is still not looking as great on you as it looked on the advertisement banner than hum do not blame your genetics. Blame the edit kissed advertisement. And focus on applying the lipstick well. How? read on, read on. For patience is another virtue that will come handy with the hacks you are about to learn, re-learn or practice. Suit yourself :)



Applying Lipstick is an Art

Buying the best [most expensive brand in some cases] does not necessarily ensure the formula will work for you or look good on you. Of course, the shade selection is one criterion, the application is another one and quite a big one at that. And that is where hacks come handy. 

When I say hacks, I do not mean that you take a knife scrape that lipstick bullet or even worse take bullets, light them with gaslight to mix and merge. God help if that works for you. You do not even need to get botox done on your lips, or fillers or any surgical intervention. God has endowed you with unique features, highlight and make them look their best. 

Highlight how? with a good technique of course. And quite a simple technic that you can adopt on the go without investing moolah on high-end drama. Try my hacks.

A good lipstick starts with prepping the lips before you apply the lipstick and goes while you are applying the lipstick and continues even after you have finished applying the lipstick.

As much I would have loved to write it all down here but I so much want you all to watch the video. The video elaborates on all the 5 different every-day hacks you can use. Do watch and share your experience.
5 Simple Lipstick Hacks for a Perfect looking, Long Lasting Lipstick




I hope that you will like this video and these hacks would be helpful.



Hacks Summary


Here is what you can expect to learn from this video if you sailed the introductory part [even I regret that part after uploading the video, lolz]

1) How to Prep your lips
2) Use of Lipliner
3) How to Mattify a lipstick
4) How to set your lip color
5) How to remove excess lipstick
6) How to prevent lipstick/gloss from bleeding 
7) What is Lip base and why to use it?
8) How concealing works on your lipstick. 
9) How you can giving finishing edges to your lipstick.


And honey if after all these deliberations, if your lipstick still does not look good you, then it is a clear indication that you should drop that tube and get yourself a better one.

Go to any of the online sites, offering sale son makeup and suit yourself up. There are umpteen good brands available in the Indian market, waiting for you to explore and get kissed [literally]. If you want me to suggest some, pl check these that I have recently swatched or try and, feel it would not hurt to recommend.


Some Lipstick Brand That You Can try-


1) Maybelline Creamy Matte: Now you must wonder, why I am going gaga over them off-late? Of course, I have reviewed them all recently. All 35 shades. And liked them too. The details are here-



2) Oriflame
There is something about Oriflame lipstick that even after as many years, I still have a fascination with them. 

And there are more. Like Sigma, Bella Voste [Glamego Boxes mostly] and Sunny leone's range. Now, this is where my YouTube channel and Instagram comes in. If you follow me there, I keep sharing not just swatches but time to time highlight some of my favorite shades as well. 

Currently, I have come across a lovely brand called Rang De which makes organic and cruelty-free lipsticks. The form factor looks great and so does the overall branding and composition. I have done an introductory story on my Instagram - that "what's in my mail" types. Lucky those who have seen it. And those who missed, make me feel lucky about you too by subscribing/following me on YouTube and Instagram as well. Tell me you will do it :)

Myntra Online Shopping Haul | Fashion Sale Vlog

Online Fashion And Shopping

Online shopping and that too shopping for clothes have always been unfriendly, loss-making territory for me. Why? Simply as I found it very difficult to decide the right garment with the right size and the right texture. 

I have often tried shopping from clothes online but have never tried from Myntra. There was no reason in particular. Even though I heard rave reviews from some of my friends regarding their Myntra shopping experiences. You know how it works or un-works? Yeah!

Recently when Myntra asked me to tweet for its upcoming EORS sale, I made a mental note to check the sale soon. 

Another reason to hop, skip and jump on the Myntra website was this lovely kurta that I have liked at Shoppers Stop and been to buy one. To know more about this kurta and why I bought it from Myntra and SS, you need to watch my New video. 



Myntra Shopping Haul Video

I spent considerable time in shopping, trials and then thought of making a haul video. A lot of my youtube followers and you have asked me to do a haul video. I checked and realized that my haul video was a quite long time back and in spite of often being on the retail therapy, I have not made a haul video in a long time. So here it is. My new video on YouTube wherein I have spoken about my tryst with Myntra, including what I shopped and why? try-on and more. 

Do watch this video to know more.


You can also watch this video on YouTube. If you liked this video, do subscribe to my YouTube channel. I generally do 1-2 video per week.


Let me know if you liked this video and any recommendation you have for me for my next video/haul.


My Other Haul Videos/ Blogs

Please do take some time and check my haul videos. The details are given below-

1) Miniso Haul

2) TS Beauty and Makeup Tools Haul

3) Fashion Multi-Brands Haul- Coverstory, H&M, Triumph

4) Jewelry Haul from Bling store

5) H&M in India Haul

My Overall Experience With Myntra

It was my first time on their website and, I, kind of love the collection. the EORS is indeed a chartbuster offer and I so much look forward to next one coming soon. The interface is quite simple. search, scroll and select a dress, select the size, add to cart and move on with payment. Another good feature is that if you want to go for "return and refund", you get 2 choices to either use that money as Myntra credit or debit it back to your mode of payment i.e. if you purchased while using your card or net banking, it can be refunded back to the same account. 


The offers were interesting and in case, if the size or quality doesn't meet your expectation, the return process is quick too. I have bought ethnic, Indo-western, casual, basically different types of clothing from Myntra. And I must say the collection is quite good, so is the inclusion of some not so well-known but good looking brands. 

I so much liked the collection that it became very difficult for me to select and pick few. And I really do not want to buy a lot of it. It took me at least 2 days to pick and choose. 

I have added many other dresses and other products in my wishlist. 

Also, this is not a sponsored post but all the purchases are made by me.
