Cohorted March 2016 review

Cohorted March 2016

As usual my products arrived in the elegant black box tied with a beautiful black ribbon, all looking rather pretty, and inviting. I do love keeping these boxes for storage and am currently using last months one as storage for my naked palettes :).

Nails Inc - Cadogan Square

This product is described as chic and classic and they are bang on, this shade is beautiful and timeless, everybody needs a pretty nude shade in their collection and I feel this one is a brilliant addition to mine, I love a bit of Nails Inc as I find they last just the right amount of time before I'm bored of the colour and wanting a change, I honestly was so pleased to receive this shade and the good news is by the looks of it this is the only shade they sent out so everyone should receive the same one :) lucky people. RRP £9

PIXI crayon - Supernatural

Next I saw this pixi crayon, this product I remember seeing in last months booklet and not receiving it within my box, so I'm assuming that maybe there was some type of error and that it was not meant to be in last months edition and we got an accidental sneak peek, as we received the Dove true tone instead, I have tested this product out today and seems to me that you would definitely need to use some sort of primer as although it did not move about it wore off quite quickly ( I had no primer on) but I reckon a little testing to see which primer helps it last and you could have a great versatile little product on your hands here RRP £14.50 

Bareminerals - Heavenly Face Brush

I do love me a make up brush I have to admit that they are my favourite thing to receive in these box subscription services that I receive and this one was no exception a beautifully dense, blunt cut brush feels soft as silk on your skin and provides medium to full coverage, they state the brush is goof proof, so some intense testing there I feel :) so very happy with this brush and hope to see more of them in the future RRP £25

The Balm - Eye primer

Now I did not mind receiving this product however I know from researching which boxes I was going to subscribe to that people have already received this product, I'm not sure how they will feel about receiving it again I suppose it all depends on how good a primer it is! I'm not sure if anything could stray me away from my primer potion but I will give it a go none the less. RRP £5

The Balm - Nude'tude eyeshadow palette

So again I was very happy to receive this product however it is a repeat, it even states in the box that it is back by popular demand, The colours are beautiful! I am particularly in love with Sexy and Seductive I can foresee some fabulous looks using this palette and know the colours are right up my street, I love that I received a whole eyeshadow palette but if I was to receive this same palette again in a few months I know I would be cross as its the main item in the box plus it would end up being given away, and I'm not signing up to cohorted to give my items away. RRP £35

A rant coming up here: 

Ok so first off this companies customer service skills are atrocious at best, with simple one sentence rudely worded emails sent to me, followed by a cross one from me which resulted in somebody completely different replying and explaining properly my original issue. ( which was that they had charged me twice last month). The first email basically said it was my fault, which it turned out not to be.....so be warned if you try to get in contact with them, also I am having password issues emailed them 3 days ago and am still waiting to hear anything back.

Secondly .....right last month if you remember we received the Bareminerals night pore treatment? well my auntie works for Bareminerals, she came round to visit last night and I showed her the product after explaining to her what it was and she was looking quite baffled, she looked the product over and then told me that in fact they did bring that product out but that it was about 4 years ago! now I know that they cant always have bang on trend up to date just been released items, but seriously 4 years even things from last year I would understand, but 4 years I just couldn't believe it, if it was say one of their best sellers for 4 years and everybody was raving about it then maybe it would be ok, but she said that it wasn't even anywhere near that and was just sort of a side product that they brought out! 

So needless to say I will be keeping a close eye on cohorted and their plans to check that we are not being taken for a ride, with old products all the time.

Also I wish anyone luck that decides to contact customer services.

Much love xxx
