Inside My Envy Box August Edition
This month, My Envy Box added four new skincare brands from Latvia to New Zealand in their brand list and I got products from two of them in the box. Here are the goods.

Avene Eau Thermal sunscreen |
Kama Ayurveda Bringadi Intensive Hair Treatment – I’m glad they sent out samples of this product because I’ve been wanting to try it for some time. This is meant to help with hair loss and premature greying and I got three samples inside the box. They look tiny but one bottle will easily last for 3 applications so a total of nearly 10 is not that bad.
Kama Ayurveda Mridul Soap Free Face Cleanser – Its a powder face wash which you are supposed to mix with water. I am not very fond of powder cleansers but have heard good things about this one. The sample size is tiny though and I wish they gave a couple more of these.
Avene Eau Thermal sunscreen – I have used a sample of this sunscreen earlier and quite liked it. Happy to have received another one.
L’Occitane Aromachologie Control Styling Prep cream – I got two sachets of this leave-in-conditioner. L’Occitane products have worked on my hair and I’m eager to see if this does as well.
H2O Sea Moss Replenishing Body Lotion – A decent sized sample of a body lotion that smells lovely. Has gone into my office drawer for times when I need extra hydration while sitting in that ac environment for hours.

Want to know what is that product? Read on..
Here’s the list of all products inside the June edition of My Envy Box.
1. SkinYoga Coconut Sea Salt Foot Scrub (Full size- Rs. 495 for 150g): I really liked the SkinYoga face scrub that was included in an earlier box and this looks promising too. Also, the size is quite substantial.
2. Thalgo Freshness Exfoliator (Full size – Rs. 1770 for 50mL): Not another Thalgo sample! I’m really tired of getting these now and I hope My Envy Box listens to me and refrains from sending out Thalgo samples for a few months.
3. Innisfree Eco nail color (Full size- Rs. 300 for 7mL): This is my first Innisfree nail polish and also the first full size product in a My Envy Box. The color is really pretty and girly. I like 🙂
4. Kronokare Provencal Lavender Body Lotion (Full size- Rs. 345 for 220mL): A lavender body lotion to match the lavender box :). I have not heard of this brand before but they make paraben and SLS free products which sound interesting. The lotion smells lovely and the texture is quite light. The sample size is also good at 35 ml.
5. Nina Ricci Le Tentation de Nina perfume vial (Full size- Rs. 4800 for 50mL): I was thinking of buying this perfume in Paris specially for its lovely bottle. The fresh floral fruity smell is lovely too and I’m glad that they included a sample of this. Maybe now I shall buy it!

May My Envy Box |
Want to know what I got and if makeup was included? Read on..
In May, the color of My Envy Box has changed to a pretty pink and I definitely prefer pink over orange and white. I really love these boxes because they are so good to store stuff. They are spacious and sturdy and I have all of mine filled with accessories and knick knacks. This month, inside the box there is also a cloth pouch included in which all the samples are kept. The customary letter and product information cards are also included. No additional gift voucher for any store this time though.
Coming to what I got. Here’s the full list:
- Roberto Cavalli ‘Exotica’ EDT 1.2mL sample {Full sized product- Rs. 5200 for 75mL}- a fruity-floral fragrance, with sandalwood as the base note. Smells really nice!
- Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum– around 2-3mL sample ampoulle {Full sized product- Rs. 1450 for 80mL}- I’ve used this up already and quite liked it on my skin. Absorbs fast and is a pretty good lightweight moisturizer. Wish the sample was not so tiny. 2 uses and its over!
- Eminence Organics Tropical Vanilla Day Cream Sunscreen SPF 32– 3mL sample sachet {Full sized product- Rs. 4393 for 60mL}- Smells great but I am not a fan of sachets at all. Besides I’m also bored of Eminence now. This is probably the fourth box in a row which has an Eminence product.
- H2O+ Targeted Hand & Nail Cream– 30mL {Full sized product- Rs. 1100 for 180mL}: I like H2O products and they work quite well for me. This one is definitely my favorite in the box and has already gone into my travel kit.
- ZA True White Cleansing Foam– 5g {Full sized product- Rs. 349 for 100g}- Tiny sample but lets see how it fares.
