Review: Fashion Culture Box March Travel Series


Hello! March has almost come to an end, and it's school holiday time! How I'd wish to go back to those good ol' school days, so that I can go travel this month ^_^ Just at the nick of time, Fashion Culture Box March 2014 edition is all you need for travelling! 

If you have missed FCB February Debut Edition, feel free to visit HERE for my review 

This month's fashion trove comes in a simple black and white box, with 6 fashion and beauty items that surprises every fashion lover in Malaysia! Plus, you can enjoy plenty of discounts from the shopping vouchers inside too :)

Each month, there will be 3 exciting themes of style for you to choose from. The style decription is available on Fashion Culture Box website and Facebook page, so you can choose themes that suit you the most. At just RM58 per box (inclusive of delivery), you will receive a box full of fashion accessories and beauty products, tailored according to your taste based on the theme you chose.

Every box also comes with a complimentary FC Zine, which is a helpful guide about the products. Among the 3 themes: Beach Holiday, Parisian Affair and Safari Adventure, I can't decide which is my favourite! But anyway I bought the second one, as it sounds more romantic and sweet.

 The beach and parisian themes sound like something I'd definitely love. 
Look at the famous tourist spots recommended inside FC Zine, I'd wish to fly there right away! 

Anyway, let's unveil my pick of the month!
Theme: Fashion Culture Travel Series (Parisian Affair)
Price: RM58 per box (FREE delivery)
Content: 1 L'amour Layered Necklace, 1 Charm de Louvre Bracelet, 1 Candied Flower Ear Studs, 1 French Couture Silk Scarf, 1 Sample-sized Gel Moisturizing Sunblock and 1 FC Zine booklet with editorial content

FASHION

Item #1 Parisian Affair : Charm de Louvre Bracelet

Definitely no regrets for picking this Parisian theme, because it's the only box with my favourite charm bracelet ♥ It comes in metallic blue pearls and velvety blue string weaved between the gold chain. Love the classy gold Eiffel charm too! 

Item #2 Parisian Affair : L'amour Layered Necklace

Complementing the charm bracelet, it's nice to see a matching necklace with similar pearls and Eiffel charm in the box. Good to go with a piece of sweet lacey dress for a romantic date! :)


Item #3 Parisian Affair : Candied Flower Ear Studs

Now let's meet the best friend of necklace and bracelet :)
Nothing could go wrong with the simple yet sweet-looking rose ear studs!



Are't they lovely when paired together?


Item #4 Parisian Affair : French Couture Silk Scarf


Apart from the basic accessories, this month's FCB has a little surprise for me-- a pattern-printed silk scarf. The quality is so fine, and I love the French inspired prints that look classy and feminine. 


Scarf is not an accessory I'd usually wear, but I'll learn to style it with the guide in FCZine!


Chic or not!! You can wear it around the neck, head, waist and even on your bag :D


Item #5 "Nail It With BLOOP" Nail Art Sticker

Here's another product from BLOOP apart from the nail polish I got from last month's FCB. To save the hassle of painting the nails with patterns, I have tried BLOOP's ready-to-use nail sticker in tribal patterns before. Now the chic and girly pink polka dots design adds to my collection. And I can use the RM20 cash voucher to purchase other different patterns at BLOOP!


BLOOP nail stickers are available at only an affordable price tag of RM12.90, at Watsons and
 BLOOP counters at Parkson KL Sentral, KL Festival Mall, KB Mall, Ipoh Parade and Gurney Plaza.


Quick, easy-to-use, convenient and can last up to 7 days with good care!

BEAUTY

Item #6 Neutrogena Hydroboost Gel SPF30 PA++

Neutrogena has always been popular, but it's my first time trying its sunscreen. Living in a hot and humid country, we not only need a sunblock to protect our skin but also an effective moisturizer to keep skin well hydrated. Now how about a 2-in-1 product? A moisturizer with sunscreen of SPF30!

Clean and refreshing in scent, the gel is very nourishing to the skin, and easy to spread since it is water based. It takes only one pump to cover entire face and neck, and I love the lightness that doens't feel sticky on skin :) Worth to try! 

VOUCHERS

RM30 off at Strip Ministry of Waxing

 20% off storewide at Zalora.com.my by entering the code: "UNIV20"


My Overall Verdict:

1. This month's box is satisfying as all the 6 items meet my expectation for the Parisian themed box.
2. I love the idea of having a beauty product for me to try aside from the fashion accessories :)
3. Pricewise, RM58 for 6 items is definitely a great steal. Plus, every month I will be surprised by different themes. Can't wait for April fashion box!

For April 2014, there are 3 themes (RM58 each) for the Operation Occupation Series: Working Girl, Campus Chic and The Socialite. Which is your best pick? Or you can't resist the fashionable goodness in it and buy them all at only RM160? 

Anyway, the April fashion box is open for subscription now. Can't wait to show off the box of The Working Girl I bought! =) Looking forward for my surprise to arrive few weeks later!
