Bag of Love : May 2013 Edition - Best of Beauty
Assalamualaikum and hello everyone! :)
I feel like I haven't put up posts for so long! Last week had been so hectic, so busy. My body was aching here and there and I was such a mess! :'( But no worries, everything is good, I'm just tired that's all. But, something came into the mail last week and I was so happpppy!
Last month I was chosen to be a part of the 'unzipping' Bag of Love - April 2013 Edition. Mimi, the founder of Bag of Love was so sweet and decided to give the bloggers another bag (MAY Edition) fills with goodies. Thanks Mimi! :) To those who have NO IDEA what BAG of LOVE is all about, kindly click HERE! :)
The theme for this month is 'Best of Beauty'. What comes to mind when I heard 'Best of Beauty' is that I would most probably get products that are known for the quality and very much loved by beauty lovers. So yeah I'm so excited! :)

This is the bag. This is so pretty, I will definitely to store my makeup when I'm travelling.
First peek. I can already see what I like. :D
Everything's inside the bag
Details and information on the products as well as Mimi's appreciation card. I really think this is such a nice personal touch. :)
I love that she packed things that are liquid in a plastic AND bubble wrap. I heard some people had the products leaked and somewhat stained the bag and things like that (last month's bag). Kudos to Mimi for stepping it up and solve the problem! ;)
DOVE BEAUTY NOURISHING BODY WASH (Full Size - 200ml RM6.90)
This smells so good. It has a blend of moisturizers that will keep your skin hydrated and smooth at all time. I can't wait to try this. This is great for travelling.
CRABTREE & EVELYN SOMERSET MEADOW HAND THERAPY (Full Size, 25g, RM30)
I LOVE this! I am looking for hand lotion that is small enough to bring it with me anywhere. Besides of the lovely scent, it really does do the job as a wonderful moisturizer.
KERASTASE BAIN OLEO - RELAX SHAMPOO (30ml
Full Size , RM78 for 250ml
This is a smoothing shampoo that can tame dry and frizzy hair. I haven't tried any of Kerastase products, The scent is ok but I need to use this first to know if it works.
ELIZABETH ARDEN CERAMIDE CAPSULES DAILY YOUTH RESTORING SERUM (7 capsules)
Full Size , RM320 for 60 capsules
This serum will help you in reducing fine lines by replenishing skin's natural ceramides, moisturizing your skin to maintain the firmness, smoothness and suppleness. It is said to be your gateway to a younger looking skin. I thought we were getting a sample of the famous 8 -hour cream but this is wonderful too. As you know Elizabeth Arden is pricey, I would like to try it out first before splurging my money. 60 capsules equals to RM 320, 7 capsules equals to around RM37.33. Wohooooo!
Nway as I was checking out the the packaging, I saw the word 'OLD'. Is it supposed to mean anything? Is it a code or something? Or does it mean that the product is an old stock? I don't know, can anyone tell me?
CALVIN KLEIN ETERNITY EDP (1.2ml)
Full Size , RM254 for 50ml
CALVIN KLEIN ETERNITY FOR MEN EDT (1.2ml)
Full Size , RM209 for 50ml
These Calvin Klein's perfumes are definitely world famous! I used to own the Eternity a long long long time ago (I think when I was in secondary school). Yeah it reminds me those teenage days. hahaha :D This is a good sample for anyone who never try this perfume, Good size to throw in my bag. ;)
Basically these are the products that I received. :)
I also received complimentary vouchers from Calvin Klein, Amante and Crabtree and Evelyn. And 2 samples (2 Kerastase Smoothing Masks and Crabtree & Evelyn Lavender Body Lotion).
But I'm excited for this. Who wants to go wuth me?? Lets go together girls!! :)))
Why I love this bag :
1) Includes 2 full size items (Body wash and hand lotion)
2) Liquid products are wrapped in plastic and bubble wrap to prevent leakage.
3) I love the complimentary voucher from Amante.
4) All the products are well known brand therefore it does goes with the month's theme.
5) I love the bag, spacious and great for travelling.
What can Bag of Love do to improve :
- Makeup stuff! This is crucial. We need makeup products. Most beauty box only provides skincare, which is great but makeup product is definitely in my top list.
- Keep on giving at least 2 full size of items.
- Be different from any beauty box, avoid similarities with others.

I'm happy with the bag because of there are a few products that I'm looking forward to try on. And the basic manicure complimentary voucher is really great because I'm in need of a manicure and it is such a nice treat for a lady. Overall, good job Mimi!
