Vanity Trove : Beauty All Stars

Vanity Trove is no stranger to us girls, I'm certain that you have heard of them before. Many of us immediately think of monthly beauty surprises that comes in a pleasantly packed box. In case you weren't aware, it is also an online community that shares and discover beauty-related content. 

If you've ordered a VT box for yourself before, you'd understand the kind of excitement one would feel while unwrapping the box. It's like receiving any sort of present, be it a birthday present or a Christmas present. There's always a sense of curiosity on what you might find underneath the packaging. What intensifies the excitement when it comes to VT boxes is the fact that you know a bunch of cosmetics or beauty-supplies are waiting for you. I don't know about you, but I'm always thrilled to receive new beauty products! 

Most of the time, the products come in sample sizes but I've heard that if you're lucky, you might receive full size items. All you have to do is set up a beauty profile on Vanity Trove that would help the VT team understand your beauty needs better. With the profile, you'll also be able to follow other users and learn more about other beauty products through them. 

The whole point of this idea is to educate yourself on the products before buying them straight off the shelve. With Vanity Trove, you can now read what others have to say about the specific product and you can choose to include them in your monthly VT boxes. So instead of getting the full size bottle of  hair serum that you're not sure of, try the sample sized ones from VT first! It's a great way to save money.

A few months back, Vanity Trove collaborated with a couple of Gushcloud's influencers to come up with an exclusive beauty box for each of us. It was joy coming on-board this campaign and unveiling the contents of the box, each curated to our own beauty profiles.

Some of the other influencer's beauty boxes are already up for sale at https://www.vanitytrove.com/sg/shop/special


And here's mine!


I can't believe that the VT team designed my box with a pink theme. I absolutely love it! It's funny how clients/brands always associate me with the colour pink. I take that as a compliment. hahaha. 

Anyway, you'll be able to find 6 - 10 different products in every box, all of which are curated by Vanity Trove using my beauty profile. In other words, the items in the box are products that VT probably think I would love. So if you think that you share the same beauty profile as me, like if you have the same skin type as me, or if you're just as tan as me or you have the same hair type as me, you might like the items in my Vanity Trove box ;)


Here are two items from the box that really stood out for me. 

First, the Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion!

I've always wanted to try it out after reading so many great reviews on it. Apparently, it's great if you have pore issues and it leaves a very smooth matte finish - just what I look for in a foundation/bb cream etc. Also, it is known to have long-lasting power so you don't have to keep touching up - perfect if you have oily skin like me.

I have yet to try it so I can't offer any opinions. But I'll do a review if it really works!;)
I'm just glad that VT sent a sample to me, this way I can try it out first instead of purchasing the full sized compact which costs about $59 if I'm not wrong.


The second item that I was delighted to find in the VT box was a sample of Honey, a fragrance by Marc Jacobs.

I am ALL for perfumes and fragrances. Apart from Victoria's Secrets ones, I have always been a fan of Marc Jacob perfumes too. Well, I just really adore their quirky bottles. hehehe. As with the Laneige BB cushion, I haven't tried the Marc Jacob perfume sample either but it's been getting tons of great reviews too. If you're into fruity, floral scents, I guess you'll fancy Honey.

As it's name suggests, it smells like honey. But it isn't overpowering, so you can expect a sweet, innocent fragrant. Most people described it as the perfect summer perfume. 

Thank you VT for including the Honey sample into my box as well. Now I can decide if I want to purchase the full sized bottle or if I should just stick with Victoria's Secrets ;)


Some other favourites include dark eye circle masks by My Beauty Diary (the brand that's widely known for amazing face masks) and Xylo Sweet, a low carbohydrate sweetener. You can find all of that in the Vanity Trove box with my picture and name on it!:)

Here's the link to purchase it if you're interested

It's going for SGD$80 but if you quote 'EUNICEXOXO", you can enjoy it for only SGD$35!
That's a HUGE difference huh? This is only for a limited time so if you really want the Eunice Annabel box, go get it asap before the promotion ends.

Thanks for reading everyone! Stay beautiful ;)
