As a beauty box enthusiasts I have heard about Vanity Trove since a long time ago. I first read about it from Malaysian and Singaporean beauty blogs, and then when VT first came here in Indonesia I was pretty excited. But I was not ready to purchased it at first because I was a little bit overwhelmed with the rest of  other beauty box subscriptions. But when VT changed their service into a customized box where we can choose for ourselves, I just couldn't wait to try it.

I've waited for a while until I was satisfied with the products in my box before I finally hit the "check-out" button. You may remember from my previous post when I was invited to a Vanity Trove event that VT currently has changed its overall look. Now you can actually engaged with other users and VT members on the VT platform. You can now also uses tags and mention your friends at the platform, you can also follow each other or follow VT Top Beauty Influencers, plus you can search for specific product to know the reviews from other users/members/influencers.

And what makes VT different than other beauty box subscriptions is: at VT you are allowed to choose and pick the items that you want to be included in your beauty box! So in every box that you'll receive you won't get any surprises or random stuffs, but instead you'll get what you already chose :) 

For every box you can choose up to 6-8 samples from the product options that are available for you on your account tab. The product options would be personally picked for you based on your beauty profile so it's guaranteed that you would only get sample options that are suitable for your skin type / preferences. 

Also, they always add new samples every week so you would get a variations of samples to choose from. If you don't like your options this week then you could wait for next week to see what new samples would be available to you. But be careful, most of the samples ran out fast ;p

So after choosing my products very carefully, I finally made up my mind and satisfied with my options. I was lucky because they have Avene products last week so I hurried up and add them to my box and click "check-out" before the samples ran out ;)

Delivery was super fast with Vanity Trove Indonesia. I think it arrived less than 2 days after I ordered it. And you can order it at any time, with no due date or whatsoever. 

So anyway, here's what I chose for my customized Vanity Trove box this month:

I initially was eyeing the Tresemme Keratin Smooth Heat Protectant Spray but the sample ran out so fast I couldn't grab my hands on it, so I was left with the Tresemme Keratin Smooth Shampoo which I was also curios to try out. As you can see, I filled my box with Avene products that were available for me to choose. I haven't tried any Avene products because they're pretty expensive and they are just recently available here in Indonesia, so I was excited to get these samples to try out.

One other thing that I got is the Pleats Please perfume vial from Issey Miyake which I also curious to try out because I am in "trying-out-perfume" mood right now, collecting and sampling lots of perfumes and sweet smelling fragrances out there. 

The last thing I got is a surprise extra bonus of funky/edgy jewelry from Swanky Society!

Thank you so much for this lovely extra surprise, dear Vanity Trove... 

I love the chunky bracelet because it's pink (!) and the nail ring is also very unique! If you love edgy jewelry like these you should check out Swanky Society via Vanity Trove Indonesia, they regularly have sales there ^__^

Below is the complete list of things that I chose for my November Vanity Trove box. I will also include a little information of the product one by one:

 From back row, left to right:

Tresemme Keratin Smooth Shampoo

Swanky Society jewelry (bonus!)

Avene Skin Recovery Cream

Avene Whitening Fluid

Avene Whitening Essence

Issey Miyake Pleats Please perfume vial

Avene Cleanance Gel

Avene Extremely Gentle Cleanser

I'm very satisfied with my box because these are all the products that I really wanted to try. I'm also thankful for the surprise bonus extra of the Swanky Society jewelry set.

My skin is rather sensitive right now, I don't know what caused it but it's getting thin and dry. Usually my skin is combination oily, but right now it is more into "sensitive-dry". Maybe my skin is experiencing an extreme temperature change because currently I am in the middle of moving out from a landed house to an apartment unit so maybe my skin is not used to the different temperature caused by the height. So I was hoping that these Avene products can help my skin a little bit because they are mostly for sensitive skin. I was also quite curios with the Pleats Please perfume ever since I've heard about the launching of the perfume. The name sounds like a very cute scent ^o^

Avene Skin Recovery Cream

This recovery cream contains high percentage of Avene Thermal Springwater, quickly calms irritation, and strengthens the natural defense mechanisms of the skin.

Avene Whitening Fluid

An intensely whitening fluid for sensitive skin that helps inhibit melanin & minimize dark spots. Unveils a brighter, even-toned & more translucent complexion.

Avene Whitening Essence (Serum)

A weightless, non-greasy whitening essence for sensitive skin containing Avene Thermal Spring Water for relieving & anti-irritating properties. 

Avene Cleanance Gel

A soap-free cleanser that helps eliminate impurities and excess sebum without stripping the skin. It has gentle formula that purifies skin without aggravating it.

Avene Extremely Gentle Cleanser

No-rinse cleansing gel that effectively removes impurities and minimizes skin irritation. Specialized for naturally hypersensitive or overstressed skin caused by dermatological treatments, excessive cleansing, and extreme climatic conditions.

I haven't tried the Avene products above yet because I want to finish my current treatment first before trying out the whole Avene range from Vanity Trove, but I have used the Tresemme Keratin Smooth shampoo which I kinda like because it makes my hair soft and bouncy for 2 days without any signs of flatness. I also have used the Pleats Please perfume which I also like because it smells really nice, sweet, and girly. Perfect for everyday wear :)
