Each year, online beauty retailer Cult Beauty - they ship worldwide - does Spring, Summer, Autumn and Best-of-the-year Beauty Bags. After having missed the Spring 2016 version by a whisker - kicks self; it even had Zelens - I was able to get hold of the Summer bag before it sold out. These bags are always worth it; the brands included are great, and the products are full-, half-, or at least deluxe-sized. No foil sachets to be palmed off.
Scroll down for a detailed look at the Cult Beauty Bag for Summer 2016.

Emma Hardie Brilliance Face Oil
Odacite Eye Contour Serum Concentrate
I love Odacite. Their serums are lovely plant-oil blends that target skin issues such as acne and pigmentation. This eye serum targets creases and crepey-ness and strengthens the fragile skin in the eye contour area.
Kevyn Aucoin Eye Pencil Primatif - Navy (half size)
Creamy midnight blue pencil I will be using regularly.
Pixi Glow Tonic - 15ml
This is a holy grail product for me; great to get this, so I don't have to lug about a 250ml bottle when I travel.
Mizon Vita Lemon Sparkling Powder Duo
Mizon is my favourite Korean skincare brand. This set is a "fizzy facial" powder duo - pour the contents into a basin and dunk your face in for revitalised, glowing skin.
Sonya Dakar Flash Facial
I already have the full-sized bottle of this beautiful resurfacer. It gives me smooth, even-toned skin, so I'm always glad to get more of the product.
Perricone MD Face Finishing Moisturiser
This moisturiser smells of roses and has a light, jelly-texture. A little goes a long way, and the product sinks in nicely, making it idea for pre-makeup moisturising.
Laura Geller Bronze-n-Brighten
Look at that! Nude blushes are in trend right now, and I love, LOVE how this looks on me. FOTD coming soon. Seriously beautiful product!
Thanks to all the 10ml samples from beauty boxes and bags, I have enough for a couple of months. This serum is a nice choice if you have severe post-inflammatory blemish spots after breakouts.
Tony Moly I'm Real Rice Sheet Mask
Another sheet mask to add to the stock. I can never have too many of these!
Becca Ever Matte Poreless Priming Perfector
Another product I'm very excited about. I've been looking for a primer to replace Porefessional - this seems promising, as it claims to provide 12-hour shine control. Will try it out over the next few weeks.
W3LL People Bio Brightener Invisible Powder
Half-sized sample of translucent setting powder. Goes into my daily makeup bag for touch-ups.
Sachajuan Colour Save Shampoo (100ml)
I was hoping to get the dry shampoo on offer instead of this. Ah well. This goes into the giveaway box, since I do not colour my hair.
Kiki's Health Nature's Living Superfood
Contains a mixture of 34 plant extracts, algae, enzymes and sea vegetables for general health and well-being. Went in my Dad's Father's Day hamper, since he needs to gain some weight.
Verdict
Love! The Laura Geller Bronze-n-Brighten and the Odacite Eye Serum alone make this a brilliant bag. I'm not too thrilled about the Kiki food supplement, but the other products make up for it. And for some reason, diet supplements seem to be in all the beauty boxes these days. I cannot wait for Cult Beauty's Autumn Bag and the Best of 2016 Selection!
