My 2nd Saladbox: Exclusive Regatta Edition
April box is still part of my Starter Plan. My first box is a Skin Food Exclusive Box. Now, I get to have Regatta Exclusive Box. Regatta is a Filipino clothing brand, founded in 1989 by Lizzie Zobel and Mia Borromeo. They are famous for preppy chic apparel. Now they also introduced perfumes, sunscreen and lip balms for their 25th anniversary this year 2014. We get to test it through Saladbox, covering our needs for summer outings.
The contents and reviews for each item I got:

The perfume weighs 50ml, containing a blend of citrus, flowers, fruits and spices. Other ingredients includes aqua (water), Alcohol denat, Fragrance and Benzophenone-4. Just by opening the box, the scent is already emitting from it. The scents smells fresh and floral like summer.
Lip Balm with Sunscreen Protection: Chocolate and Green Apple Flavors

Pros:
> With sunscreen protection

Tips:
In the heat of the summer, most people neglect their lips. Summer heat causes dehydration resulting to chapped lips. Healing chapped lips takes time, so if you want to be summer-kiss-ready-lips, make sure your lips are soft, smooth and kissable by taking care of it. What a great way of taking care of it by moisturizing and protecting it from sun exposure too to keep your lip color pink. You may not appreciate it this time but when you get older, you'll love that you had taken care of your skin and lips.
Some may not know but sun also damages the skin in our lips. Try to use products on your lips with SPF too specially this summer.
