Last week, I posted my recap of the Bloggers United AU Adelaide Event. As promised, I've finally sat down and taken photos of all the goodies in the many goody bags we received. I may or may not have missed a few things - but this is the bulk of it all. (Apologies if I have missed anything - there was a lot to go through.)
I couldn't even fit everything into one photo. Oops.
Elucent has been wonderfully supportive of Bloggers United AU and has provided their entire whitening range for the past few events. I have a few doubles now, too. I have yet to actually try the products as I'm waiting to finish off some of my current products, but hopefully I love it. They also gave us a stunning Elucent pen with pretty diamonds.
L'Oreal Professional gave us a few products from their subsidiary companies. The Pureology Colour Fanatic I have heard of before - I love the idea of this brand as it's made just for coloured hair. One of the coolest products I've heard of in a while is the L'Oreal Wet Domination Shower Shine. This is a fashion statement product to give you that "wet hair" look that is pretty chic and in at the moment. We also got the Matrix Total Results Moisture Me Rich shampoo and conditioner - which I am excited to try as I used to use Matrix products exclusively and used to love them. Another addition was the Redken Diamond Oil, which I'm really keen to try as I'm really into hair oils at the moment.
Some really fun bath time products were also waiting for us in our goody bags. One I was interested in trying was Bitchinskin Scrub. They've only just popped up on my radar but it sounds (and smells) amazing. We were also super lucky enough to get a full sized Vanilla Pyramid Bath Bomb from Oh Deer Sugar, a brand I've really wanted to try for some time. Valencia Bath Treats returned with goodies for this event too, but instead sent us a super exciting Moonlight Berries Crumble bath bomb to try out. We got a few soaps; one from Urban Rituelle and one from a new brand to me called Harvest Garden. Both of these smell incredible.
We got some pretty cool deluxe samples; a box of goodies from Kosmea Australia - a brand that I have not used a lot in the past, so I'll be excited to try these out. We also got the deluxe sample kit from Enbacci, which is one of my favourite skincare brands.
We got so much skincare, it was pretty exciting. We got the NS-8 Leg Care Cream which I'm actually really excited to try as my legs have been very dry and scratchy lately. We also got some Andrea Roll On Hair Remover. This is a concept I have not heard of before so it'll be interesting to try. Another cool product to try is the Sanctuary Spa Face and Body Mask, I had received this from another event in the past but ended up passing it to a friend; but not this time. I'm keen to try. Weleda also provided us some fun goodies, including our pick of a Weleda Revitalising Body Wash (I got one of their new scents, Evening Primrose) and their cult hit Skin Food.
We also received some samples of perfume and cream from Kismet Jardin (not photographed as I completely forgot to add them) as well as a full sized Hydra Gem and Celeste Rose Cream. Rosehip Plus also provided products for this event, gifting us their awesome Rosehip Roll On and their Organic Daily Cream Cleanser. (My favourite.)
We were treated by Nuxe with two full sized products from their whitening range; the Brightening Moisturising Lotion and the Intensive Whitening Dark Spot Correcting Serum. We also received a massive bottle of Bioderma Sebium Foaming Gel. Our teeth are also going to be brightened with the White Glo Diamond Series Advance Teeth Whitening System. I've considered getting my teeth whitened for some time but I will have to try this first and see how it goes.
Waxaway provided us a sample of one of their wax strips to try as well. New brand to me, Stem Organics, gifted us a Hydrating Face Fluid which I will be really interested to try. We also got the Emma Organics Hand & Nail Revive, as well as the cult product I've been hearing a lot about; the Bhave Gun Powder.
Manicare treated us with a few products as well, including the Long Lasting Salon Nails, some Ready To Wear Pre-Glued Lashes and a Flawless Complexion Sponge. I also got a beautiful Furless brush (I think it was a lucky dip between brush and nail polish) as well as a cool contouring brush from brand Poni Cosmetics.
Just a few lip products - of course. Included was the very delicious sounding Carmex Moisture Plus Lip Balm in Peach, an NYX Butter Gloss, a Boe Professional Colour Last Lipstick and a Nude by Nature lip liner. We were also gifted a Runway Room lipstick, as well as a Mineral Lip Glaze and a Mineral Lip Colour from Vani-T. I'm most excited to try the Natural Lip Balm in French Pair from Shanghai Lil.
Speaking of Vani-T - they also gifted us some nifty tanning goodies from that which they are famous for, including the Bronzing Mitt, the 1 Hour Self Tan Brazilian Bronze and the super cool sounding Gradual Tan Bronzing Custard. Their products are just so gorgeous to look at, aren't they?
A bit of makeup too. We also received Mineral Colour Crystals from Vani-T (which were so much fun to play with on the day), and a Barry M nail polish which is actually new to Aussie shores. (I also photographed it backwards - oops.) We were also spoilt with a Benefit Cosmetics Longwear Powder Shadow, our pick of eyeshadow from presenters REB Cosmetics, a Boe Professional Blusher Duo, and a product I have been dying to try since our Sydney Bloggers United AU Event - the Williamspro Makeup Selfie Glo.
A few bits and bobs. Stem Organics also gave us this adorable packet of Forget Me Not flower seeds so that we can grow our own. I love this idea and will definitely attempt to plant these. We also got a sample of Control + Face Gel from Real-U and a sample of Keeko; which is actually an oil pulling product for mouth hygiene. We also received this gorgeous ring from local business Sonni Lou, and a mini nail file from The Makeup Box Shop.
We had a lovely representative from Dr Hauschka on the day, who also provided us with four deluxe samples of their products. We got the Resenmelk, Rose Day Cream, Lavender Sandlewood Calming Body Cream and Lavender Sandalwood Calming Body Wash.
We were incredibly spoilt by Adelaide based brand, Davroe. Davroe not only came to chat with us, but also gave us deluxe samples of their entire range. We also got a few sachet samples, and a full sized version of their Murray River Salt Spray.
Natralus, another exciting presenter who attended, also gifted us with a huge range of goodies. Including their new Paw Paw Lip Butter range, their Paw Paw Ointment, Paw Paw Gel, Paw Paw Lip Balm, and Paw Paw Moisturiser. We also got their Hand Shield and Instant Hand Sanitiser too.
Throughout the day we also had a cool tote bag to help carry any extra stuff we accumulated. This cute bag was from K-Mart, and we also got a gorgeous notebook to take notes, and a cute as pen both from K-Mart as well.
We got a few things to snack on during the day in our bags too. A Cobs Natural Popcorn bag (which my partner has been trying to steal and eat since I got back) some Lucky snacks, some Golden Days Sesame snacks, and some Fit and Fab mini protein bars. We also had some yummy drinks including Ovi Hydration to take home with us too.

So there you have it. We have been absolutely spoilt by brands and received so many goodies to take away. But goodies weren't the only good thing to come out of the day - we also received so much information, insight and tips into blogging, working with brands and being true to ones self. We had some amazing speakers and guests, and I can say that even without this amazing lot of goodies, I still would have felt very spoilt and lucky to have attended.
