I received The Nature's Co. Spearmint Body Wash as a part of Vellvette Box.

The body wash has a spearmint effect as it claims and little solution gives a lot of lather. It gives a nice fragrance and I would recommend this to anyone who have a sensitive skin.

The day I touched and held you, you have shown the world. In love with your beauty, I bow to the one who made you!

Thankfully, those who created me gave less strength, I can rest when I want to. Hope they never find a medicine for this and I can enjoy my sweet nap.

I received the August 2013 Vellvette Bag on the last day of the month. The bag is the same as the pink colored one in one of the previous subscriptions. I like the June's pink bag than the black.

The Contents in the bag:

1. H20+ Sea Results Deep Sleep Recovery Cream. (In the bag, sample not to be sold. Full size Rs 3,200 for 50g) 
2. Sally Hansen Lip Plumper - Sheer Bare (in the box --> Full size Rs 775 for 6 ml)
3. I Love... Coconut and Cream (in the box 100ml. Full size Rs 795 for 500 ml, Rs 250 for 100 ml)

I have used only the lip gloss which is nude. I would prefer a colored one instead.

Overall, I am quiet unhappy with the lip gloss and the cream. The products would have been carefully chosen.

Name of Book: Soul in Present Condition

Author: Mary E Merrell

This is the first time I chose to read a book on the paranormal activity by the author Mary E. Marrell. The story starts with the real estate agent Rosemary Fernandes who could communicate to the ghosts in the houses, where she takes her clients. The story also reveals about the vampires and she being a human servant to her vampire boss, Marcus. His blood had made her look younger than she was.

Rosemary's gifted way of communicating to the ghosts had helped them resolve their problems. However, she has to tackle with the vampires, Lucila & her friend, Abel, who wants to make Marcus jealous ever since he hired Rosemary.

The characters are pleasant, the the pace at which the story is told is well maintained. But I felt there is a dependency on the previous two novels,House Haunting and Curve Appeal.    

Author Info
Mary E. Merrell writes Paranormal Mysteries and Young Adult Urban Fantasy. She has worked many jobs, but always had stories in her head. It wasn’t until she went into real estate and walked into that old, vacant home that The Real Estate Paranormal Mystery Series came to life. Fortunately, nothing spooky happened at the furniture store, or the first book might have been, “The Haunted Sofa."

 Mary E. Merrell’s plots are smooth and slightly dark, and her characters sinfully sweet. Try a little guilty pleasure with House Haunting, the first book in The Real Estate Paranormal Mystery Series. One reviewer called it “A good start to a new series.”

 Her Young Adult series, Affinity is also humorous but deals with very real life themes. A reviewer said, “Love it. So different. A fun read.”

 Mary E. Merrell lives in the Central Valley of California with her husband, two dogs, and five cats. She has two grown sons. When she’s not writing, she’s gardening or playing soccer.

Title: Corr Syl The Warrior.

Author: Garry Rogers
Core Syl is a fictional story of a warrior rabbit. The story is well narrated and as it goes on, it turns out to be very interesting. It is amazing to learn how the animals think, though we cannot understand. Corr is assigned a task to investigate the intrusion caused by humans called Danog and advise the action, which he fulfills.

It is hard to find good friends and when you find one, its equally important to maintain friendship. Friendship blossoms as young when we are kids in school, neighbors or even cousins. Though, I don't have any siblings, this special friend at school turned out to be my soul sister!

I had a close friend during my high school days. I had a shoulder to lean while I faced tough times. She always stood beside me, when I needed her. She showed me the strenghts I possesed and that everyone had their own weakness. Even if I had a sister, she wouldn't have been as close as her. 

I had found a soul sister on my own.

He looked at the old mansion last time with sadness, handing over to its new landlord; who cheered with happiness on the deal. His memories in the mansion, seeing his children grow would be remembered and never forgotten. He wanted togetherness while the sons wanted separation.

He lost his home while they found a house.

I was excited to see my Vellvette box in the last week of July. The box had surprises like always.


Here is the personalized card. The box had 4 items:

1. Sally Hansen Radiant Hands, Nails & Cuticle creme
2. Nyassa Passion Burst Body Mist
3. LA Splash Lash Splash Mascara - Black
4. BONUS: Bling Nail Appliques - 17

The contents of the box.

Body mist has a mild fragrance but does not stay longer. The bottle is a sample piece. It is handy and fits into the handbag or even a purse and best suited for traveling.





The mascara gives a fine curve and is good for a daily wear.




Yet to try the Bling nail art.




I am happy with July box with the 2 full size product which Vellvette promised.
