After your Fab Bag is dispatched you get mail from the crew informing about the id number of the parcel to help you trace it. Once I got the mail I was excited and began to eagerly wait for my Fab Bag to arrive and finally after two days of the mail I received my Fab Bag. The moment I saw the courier guy with a parcel I knew it was for me!
As the harsh summers have arrived, this month’s Fab Bag is aptly themed Summer Essentials.
How it works: You get your Fab Bag around the second or third week of the month after you place your order. I ordered for a three-month subscription. While ordering you are supposed to fill an extensive questionnaire about your skin type, love for makeup etc. This helps them to customize the bag especially for you. As my subscription ends this month so I got a renewal offer coupon offering 5% discount for the renewal of the membership.
Price: INR 599/ month and INR 1499 for 3 months. You can also go for an annual subscription which would cost you INR 4799. You can order them online at www.fabbag.com
Claims: According to their fan page, Fabbag is your opportunity to discover the best beauty brands at your doorstep. Receive 3 customized luxury beauty & cosmetics samples every month that are handpicked by our experts for you. Plus if you like a product, you can get fabulous discounts by purchasing the full sized products at fabbag.com
Packing: Unlike the previous months , this month’s bag is a plain black and yellow bag with products, leaflets about the products and a small note.
Products received: This month I received a Votre Microdermabrasion Creme, Cornelia Signature Revitalizing Shower Gel, LA Splash Proof Eyeshadow Base and a Chap Stick Lip Sheild365.
Votre Microdermabrasion Creme: Microdermabrasion helps in reducing spots, scars and evens skin texture and tone. The best thing about Votre is all their products are completely natural. I used it once and my skin really felt soft and smooth and regarding the claims it’s too early to decide as regular usage will bring out the results.
Cornelia Signature Revitalizing Shower Gel: Though this shower gel claims to be whipped with vitamins, restorative flower, ginger root extract and helps detoxify the pores but personally I didn’t like the fragrance of the shower gel.
LA Splash Proof Eyeshadow Base : As the names suggests it is a eyes shadow primer and claims to intensifies color and provides extra protection against smears and smudges for flawless 12 hour wear. As claimed it helps to keep the loose eye shadows and glitters stay for long. If you have oily eyelids than use this to avoid your eyeliner from getting smudged, which is a common problem all of us face in summers.
Chap Stick Lip Sheild365: Most lip balms we get have a negligible SPF amount and often do not work in the day but Chap Stick Lip Sheild 365 contains SPF 50 so it would surely help avoid lips from getting tanned. But the con is that it contains paraben.
Pros: The best thing about the May is that there are three full sized products.Secondly an SPF lip balm and eye shadow base are the best things for summers.
Cons: I didn’t find any cons except the body wash as I didn’t like it fragrance.
Rating: I would give it 4.5/5(-5 for body wash).
