I think it's really cool that you can get this every month automatically as a subscription or after the fact once the surprise is revealed. The subscription is far more appealing to me, but I know a lot of people want to see what's in there before springing for it.

I was holding back on the May Mystery box for spoilers since I bought the Mothers Day Mystery Box. I'd normally buy it without spoilers because I love RH polishes. Oh... I don't know what the ingredients on the lime lip balm are, but if it's the same as the rose lip balm, it's also the same ingredients as the cuticle balm, just different packaging. I personally prefer the lip balm tube over the super skinny tube, it's easier for me to swipe a finger against. But. (And this is the part where I remember weird random facts about people) they do use avocado oil in their balms.

 
Just received my May mini mystery bag and I'm in love with everything!  I will definitely be joining the sub.  Thanks for the recommendations MUT!! 

 
Mod note again: "I did a mani! Check out my Instagram for the photo!" is still considered a teaser post. I will be deleting that (as soon as I get back to my laptop unless another mod beats me to it) and any future such links in this thread. Please see the directions on how to post photos on the new forum here: https://www.makeuptalk.com/f/topic/131657-how-to-insert-an-image-into-a-post/

 
Does anyone have Zoya Charla to compare it to?
I have the essence Charla dupe! I was trying to figure out why it looked so familiar. It might also be close to Zuzu (Zusu?), too. Those names didn't click until right now. I can check them tonight!

Awesome.  I appreciate that.   I have Charla and Zuzu on my want list and I am dying to know how close if at all it is.  I checked it against Hard Candy Crush on Caribbean and it's definitely different. 

 
I think I'll give this sub a go. I dropped one of my BB's and put my Square Hue sub on hold so I think I can justify it. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Verdict: Very, very different (and also my phone won't focus when there are sparkles involved, much like me). L to r: essence Choose Me (Zoya Charla dupe), RH Waves, and Zoya Zuzu.

ETA:  Ack!  I'm spoilering the photo due to size!

Awesome!  Thank you so much for that!  Proof that photographs can be misleading.

Here's the ingredient list:

Ooh, thanks for the pic. Now that I have both balms side by side, there is a slight difference in ingredients, plus the stevia in the lip balms. I was running off memory earlier.

Avocado oil seems to be okay!  The problem seems to be the fleshy part.  I think maybe it has an enzyme that triggers an allergic reaction.

And heads up on swaps talk:  Discussion of swaps -- like "I'm putting this up for swap, so see my signature for my swap link" -- in these discussion threads isn't permitted.  It all must go in the Classified area.  Zadi posted a complete breakdown on the forum rules and terms of service for everyone to read here:

Sorry - it's so confusing.  I've actually seen mods say (pre new software jump) that you could refer to your sig as long as you didn't promote leaving the site.  (Which I didn't.)  My bad - won't do it again!  But there's got to be a better outline of the rules.  I've seen too many edits lately.

For comparison's sake, here are the ingredients for sakura matsuri cuticle balm:

And candy mountain cuticle balm:

I received shipping notice on my ipsy code order. Then today I received an email that one of the sets, the creme one, was on back order and to pick a full size product to add to it when shipped. I was so pleased that they didn't wait until I received it to tell me something was missing. I picked namesake. Everything else is part of a set and I would much rather have them all lol
