Just received my box today....

 

The TILI box is actually quite nice, it is quite heavy white cardboard with orange trim and could be used to store anything.

 

Now what's inside, trial of WEN (never bought the stuff so trying the tea tree is actually quite nice)

Next, Laura Geller Spackle.  The box looked like it went through a war, it it banged up, crunched, bottom carton lid was practically torn off and extremely creased, product inside still is capped/sealed and appears to be fine.

Next Purity, used that before and bottle is sealed

Bare Minerals soft cream, never used that before so I will try

Elemis anti ageing product, i'm sure it's not enough to make any difference at all but it's a .5 tube so we'll try

IT CC Cream, new to me color medium and box is pretty beat up too

Julep Lip and Cheek pencil...don't understand that one, I would use it for one or the other, not for both, why would I want something on my lips when I rubbed it on my cheek.   Just put it on my lips and it feels a little waxy not like any other pencil lipstick I have put on.  Also, you need a sharpener for this one, it doesn't have the ability to turn at the base to bring up new product, it's actually a pencil.

 

What's bothering me and needs to be tossed is the SMELL of the crunched up tissue that was in the box, it has such a herb smell, nothing like any products in the box (nothing leaked) and I even unscrewed the WEN and it's nothing like tea tree either.  It is definitely "used tissue", the bottom of the box had it all crunched up and another piece put on top of the products, all I have to say, it's gotta be tossed, it's actually affecting my eyes.   We'll get that tossed pretty fast and outside in the trash.  I have no idea what that smell is but I'm sure other kits have that identical tissue and you will see what I'm describing. 

 

I actually like sample products so I'm anxious to try some of these.
