January 2014 fabbag review

Hello All,

I subscribed for this beauty box in December on their site www.fabbag.com.
I have reviewed the December fabbag Here.
This is my second fabbag and I was waiting for it eagerly. I loved it so much. Thank you fabbag crew :) Now coming to the products I received in this months fabbag.....
 

This months fabbag is called "The Cold Comfort Fabbag". I received all my products in red colored bag. Red is a royal color and they printed "FABBAG" in bold letters in gold. I liked the packaging.

The products I received in my bag are:
  • Salley Hansen Diamond Lip Treatment- Sunrise sunset
  • Nyassa Almond Body Butter
  • Votre Pore shrink toner
  • Bonus: The Natures Co Spearmint Body Wash



2014 calender was printed behind this card which says 'Nothing can stop me from having 365 FAB days this year' :)

Salley Hansen Diamond Lip Treatment - Sunrise Sunset


I use a lot of lip balms and gloss for parties. This gloss from Sally Hansen is just perfect for any occasion. I loved the color. I wish I got "Antique Bronze" shade in my bag. It has lot a lot shimmery glitter particles. I received Full size product in"Sunrise Sunset" shade. The actual cost of this gloss is 575/- for 6.2 gms.

Nyassa Almond Body Butter:




I had mixed feelings when I saw Almond body butter from Nyassa. I was happy because it is a skin care product and I love them. I was disappointed because I just bought Body butters from "The body shop" worth 1265/- I wish they provided me with this body butter in my Dec fabbag. I like the mild smell of this body butter. I received a 50 ml sample, and the cost of the full size product (100 ml) is 600/-

Votre Pore Shrink Toner:




Now I received this on the right time. I have been searching for a pore shrink toner but I found them really costly and I was also reading a lot of reviews. I have not used any products from the brand Votre and I am looking forward to use it. I received a 50 ml sample in my bag and the cost of the full size product (100 ml) is 360/-

The Natures Co Spearmint Body Wash:




I received Lavender Body Lotion from Natures Co in my December fabbag and I liked it. The spearmint body wash is in green color.I dint like the smell of this Body Wash. It had a strong minty smell, VERY STRONG smell. I don't think people will like the smell. I received a 35 ml bottle and the full size body wash (100 gms) will cost you 988/-


I also got a coupon to renew my subscription. What I dint understand is If I have subscribed for a 3 month subscription in December 2013, they sent me a subscription renewal coupon in my 2nd subscription saying this is the last bag for subscription, what about my 3rd fabbag? I will have to talk to the customer care about it.

Overall verdict:
I liked all the products in January month fabbag and I am going to use all of them. I will review all these products individually again. My three month subscription will end next month and I am eagerly waiting for my February fabbag too.

  1. It was my first fab bag, and I guess my last; there are SO MUCH BETTER SUBSCRIPTION BEAUTY BOXES and this FAB BAG, I regret. I had bought this for some indulgence for my upcoming nuptials and they ruin it ROYALLY. From all the posts over here, I feel they've sent ME THE LEFTOVERS OF FEBRUARY FAB BAG. how cheap and shameless of them!

    there is a questionnaire that they take from us and which I have clearly mentioned what kind of products suit the skin/ hair. None of the products does suit my skin/ hair.

    the bag is NOT UPTO their claimed STANDARD FOR MANY REASONS - It's a shitty Fab Bag. I had to share my horrid experience with you guys, please bear with the rant!

    1) near expiry date products - easier way to finish off the supply; throw them in the dust bin, crew! Luxury is NOT vivel. I paid up for 'luxury products as they claimed, and I am Duped. ROYALLY. I have had previously got blisters on my face Using Vivel and now, literally I pay to buy it, would i?

    2) Cetaphil- I can buy it from the drug store near my house (where is high-end in this?) Also, I dont have a sensitive skin, as clearly mentioned in the questionnaire, which they obviously DONT go through.

    3) Why does the conditioner smell like ammonia/ toilet cleaner? Why would I use such a product with a Repugnant SMELL? Would they guys USE SUCH PRODUCTS themselves?

    I guess they should Stop this if they cannot deliver what they promised. They tell me that they'd refund me after cutting 599 INR off the the first bag.

    WAS THE BAG WORTH 599 INR? I dont think so. It's very easy to say apologies, but coming from humble backgrounds I guess i have been a little greedy in wishing for small luxuries. they ruined it royally for me, thanks for that. and I cannot believe they sent near expiration that products in return of my 1.5K INR! CHEATING ALERT!!!!!!!!!

    I am subscribing for My Envy Box and I feel I will get good value for my money. FAB BAG sucks and stinks like poo!

    (sorry for this rant over here, but trust me, I feel so awful for my money and expectations that I wish they burn down) Had to share my awful experience here, somewhere; which is why the rant!
