It’s really terrible that Le Métier de Beauté Beauty Vault VIP is no longer available, because it’s a gorgeous box! I was super excited when it came and I had no clue what would be inside! This handwritten note (signed by the CEO) gave me a clue!
The Description: NOT AVAILABLE AGAIN UNTIL NEXT YEAR. Le Métier de Beauté experts will send you a carefully curated full-sized product or assortment of products shipped right to your door. One full-sized item or an assortment of items will arrive at the beginning of every month.
The Price: $348 per year
September 2013 Le Métier de Beauté Beauty Vault VIP Love Your Eyes
What a darling box! It was nestled snugly inside black squigglies in the cardboard shipping box.
As soon as I saw this information card, I knew by the photo it was shimmer cream eyeshadow in two perfect colors!
The back of the card gives application tips. I tried the shadows out as soon as the photos were done, and was pretty successful with both fingers and brushes!
The pot lids are screw-off. And when I did so, they were gorgeous!
True Color Crème Eyeshadows in Champagne Shimmer & Starry Night ($30) These colors went on so smoothly! You can also pat them on, apply with a flat brush, or use them to darken or lighten powder shadows! I’m guessing at the price here, because it looks to be a pre-release product! The link is for the POWDER shadow! These are cream shadows!
I think these swatches are more accurate than the previous color.
I loved these shadows and felt I got a great value – $60 of really luxury beauty products that I will absolutely use – with this box. I am totally happy with Le Métier de Beauté Beauty Vault VIP and that’s why it made my list of best subscription boxes for August! September was obviously a month for full-size products, I’m hoping October brings us a variety of samples, and perhaps some skincare!
What do you think of the Beauty Vault VIP subscription? Are you saving for next year?
Comments
I think the notes are such a sweet touch 🙂 this sub really seems to have a very personal feel to it.. LOVE!!! So looking forward to October!
I like the hand-signed note. I am so jealous that you got a pre-release product. I am not great with blacks either. I always end up looking like I have a black eye.
yeah some people got them last time and i was totally jealous but i got mine this time! I think it’s one of those things like cooking Indian food. Find a tutorial, follow it, see what works, try it again until you get it right!
I missed the original deadline for this and was so disappointed that I sent an email off to the company. About 2-3 weeks later I got another email offering subscriptions for the first 50 people who responded and I was being given an early shot before it opened to everyone. I can tell you I did NOT delay this time and secured my subscription promptly! I just got the box tonight and the champagne eye shadow is so gorgeous!!! I am not good with black colors on eyes, so really need to do my homework on this. But I am SO glad I got in on this. I am already looking forward to next month because I will get August AND Octobers boxes together because I joined late…..should be good!!
Try using a stiff flat brush with the black shadow and you can use it as a liner. I’m also not the best in creating a smoky eye and I need more practice! Good thing this stuff will last forever! When they reopened I posted on my new coupons page. I know 3-4 people signed up just from them dropping me a note! I’m glad they reopened it! It’s just such an awesome subscription.
