    I had my second, although new to amarya so was impressed as believe got dispatched yesterday.

    There appears to be two full sized products in this months box.

    The first I absolutely love, as is a suit all colourway, whilst the 2nd (full-sized too), appears to be an everything type produce, so may be useful whilst travelling.

    The 3rd night treatment looks promising, although am currently using argan oil for night treatment.

    The last product was an atomiser, which I can't seem to work normally, although not a special scent from what I've smelled so far!
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    Did everyone get the email regarding the revised referal programme from Amarya?

    It seems we both now get a £10 off £30 spend voucher instead of a free box each.

    i saw that! must be costing them too much to give the boxes free. plus this new offer guarantees them a minimum return of £20 back into the shop as opposed to just giving away an average of £25 products for nothing.

    I got Nude 304 as well. Bit gutted because it is a gorgeous colour but way too dark for me. I don't blame Amarya, I blame my pasty, goth-esque skin colour :rotfl:

    Overall, I'm really happy with the box. Looking forward to trying the serum and he Lavera cream smells DIVINE! It makes me think of a really post cake shop selling exquisite peach and custard tarts with orange topping (I just made that up BTW)

    I've had Lavera sample in the past and always liked them but I've never actually bought any of their stuff. I think because it is so cheap, I imagined it wasn't quite as good as the expensive brands. Which is a bit silly really and just shows how easily I fall for marketing hype :o

    Lavera will now join Laidbare on my "super value" list.


    ETA Ooooh, was looking at the other Terre D'Oc lipglosses and I do want this one Pretty, pretty colour. Bit too expensive for my purse though but it looks gorgeous.

    HUGE thanks for the pics sawan82 :T Really like the colour of your lipgloss - would have been too dark for me again though so I'm not covetous for once in my life! :rotfl:

    If anyone gets shade 305 I will be green with envy though :p

    Ummm...

    Block your ears Purple Butterfly!

    *whispers* I was lucky and got shade 305

    (Terrible timing to say that I got my Amarya box and was happy with it :rotfl:)

    I have 'goth' colouring too - very pale skin and very dark hair (my natural colouring). I'd say that 305 is a mid-rose colour with a slightly purplish-brown undertone (so not a clear, bright rose). It's quite subtle once it is spread out but it has enough colour that I don't look washed out. (Anything described as a 'nude' shade is usually bad news for me :rotfl:)

    I'm saving the Lavera cream until I've used up some older products (the ladies from the other thread will understand this! :rotfl: ) I love the Lavera handcream so I'm looking forward to using this. I will have to hide it so that I don't get tempted to test it! (Mine says it is ok until March 2014 - how brilliant to have a BB date :T)

    Oh no :(

    That's a shame, SuiDreams :(

    Do you know that there is a swap group on Facebook? I think they're called 'Beauty Box Swaps'. I'm not a member of it but it looks very friendly and there might be someone that wants to swap their lipgloss?
