October's Box

Bellapierre Cosmetics Cheek and Lip Stain in Pink Full Size! RTV $19.99

I don't think I have ever received a product from this brand, so new things are always great to try, that is why I've subbed to these boxes! I will definitely be using this balmy stain on my lips with a gloss on top!

Swatch

 Extend Your Beauty Cosmetic Tool Full Size! RTV $5.49

I have been wanting one of these for awhile, it is a little spatula that you use to scoop that last little bit of product out that is hard to get too. I don't think I would pay $6 for one though, so I'm happy to get one in a box!

 Nanacoco Nail Polish in Mermaid Lake, Full Size! RTV $3.95

I just moved across the country and left all of my nail polish behind so I love getting polishes in these as I only have a few here. I am a blue polish hoarder so this was awesome!

Chapstick Hydration Lock, Full Size! RTV $2.99

Usually I'm not a fan of getting items that are easily found at the drugstore, but I have not been able to find this one, only the raspberry lemonade one. So this Chapstick was welcomed in my box. 

Last but not least,

Lashem Picture Perfect 0.17 fl oz Sample RTV about $1.29. Full size is 0.5 fl oz RTV $3.95.

This is another new brand for me I think, I can't remember using anything from them before.

This is a wrinkle reducer, but it says that if you don't have wrinkles it can also be used as a face primer. 

This month's card!

Boxes total RTV $33.71

Overall I am happy with this box, two of the products were items that I wanted, and the rest are items that I will use. Since I liked this box, I will stay subbed for next month's! YAY BB5!

Thank you!

BEAUTY BOX 5 X2

Hello Lovelies!

Last week I re-signed up for Beauty Box 5 because they were having a 'get your first month free' promo, and being me, there was no resisting free stuff! I was pleasantly surprised at how fast the box got here, and even more surprised when I received not only September's box, but an August box as well! Two free boxes, SCORE!!! 

If you don't know what Beauty Box 5 is, it is a monthly beauty subscription that sends you 5 deluxe sized samples, or full size products for $12 per month. If you would like to join Beauty Box 5, CLICK HERE.

Join Beauty Box 5 on or before September 30th and get August's box free with code UUXQGW   I'm not sure if this can only be used for one person or multiples people. 

Now to the boxes! 

AUGUST'S BOX:

Style Essentials Nail Polish, it doesn't have a name for the color but it is cute! RTV is $7 for a 4 polish collection ($1.75 per bottle) 

 Purliss Pur Protect SPF 30 0.5 fl oz

I have seen a lot of Purlisse in boxes, but this is actually the first time I have got one I think. I'm happy getting moisturizers, especially now that it is getting close to winter and my skin gets a bit drier. 

RTV $55 for 1.7 fl oz

Sample RTV around $9.60

Nanacoco Lip Gloss in First Kiss

This is actually a nice gloss, it is pigmented like a lipstick but sticky like a gloss. The packaging is nice and gives it a more 'expensive' look even though it is cheap.

RTV $3.99

 

La Fresh Travel Lite Facial Cleansing Wipes, pack of 8 wipes. 

I love cleansing wipes! They are so great, and perfect in travel size to keep in my purse for when I'm out and about or traveling. 

Full size is 48 wipes for $19.99. Rtv for this sample is around $3.28 

 Novex Brazilian Keratin Conditioner 1.05 Fl OZ

My hair is pretty damaged so I love getting samples of conditioners or treatments. I'm excited to try this!

RTV 2lbs is $19.50

Sample RTV is around $0.60

August's Box's RTV is around $19.19

September's Box:

Revlon Bold Lacquer Mascara in Black

YAY for mascara's, especially full sized ones! I am and will probably forever be on the hunt for my holy grail mascara, so I will never get mad getting these in sample boxes!

RTV $7.99

 

My Beauty Spot Nail Polish. 

Another polish with no name. I'm not much of a gold nail polish person, but I'm sure I will find use for this with accent nails. 

RTV $24.99 for a collection of 6 

RTV for single polish is about $4.16 

Sally Hansen Toe Spacers

I'm honestly not super excited about these since they are such a cheap item and easily attainable, I would prefer not to get toe separators in a sample box.

RTV $1.99 

Natural Style by FUBU x2 .5 fl oz each

These look really interesting to me, they are a deep conditioner (Yes!) & Co-wash. I am not a two in one person usually but the word 'deep conditioning' peeked my interest. I like that we were given two, since one isn't always enough for me. 

RTV $9.99 12 FL Oz

RTV of samples is about $0.83

 Nicka K New York Eyelight Crayon in Gold

These are nice for a quick and easy make up look. I like to keep eyeshadow crayons in my purse for just in case, you never know when you might be late and need some quick make up on the go.

RTV $4.49

Total RTV for September's Box is around $19,46

Overall the boxes are ok, definitely not my favorite subscription, I will give it one month and if I'm not impressed I will definitely be canceling.

Thank you!

MAY BEAUTY BOX 5!

Hello everyone!

I received my May's Beauty Box 5 in the mail today! I will start by saying that this month's box was great, but even though I have only been subbed for two months I don't want a beauty subscription that sends products from the same companies month after month so I did cancel.... for now lol I think that BB5 is $12 per month. Want to get your own Beauty Box 5 subscription box, Click HERE.

Here is what came in my box!

Jean Pierre Tanning Towelettes (x2 towelettes):  I do not tan so this is not a product I will be using, I actually added this to go into the giveaway I am having that closes today! Hurry and enter if you haven't already! You can find it HERE. Retail price for a pack of 10 is $8.99.

La Fresh Deodorant Wipes (x2 wipes): I am actually really happy that I got these since I will be having a long airplane ride next week. I'm flying from Oregon to North Carolina and including layover time I will be traveling for 11+ hours with a 3 year old. These are definitely going to come in handy for that plane ride!! Retail price for a pack of 48 is $19.90.

Coolway Transform Styling Spray (3.30 OZ): This is a great size sample! My mom has already claimed this, which is fine because you are supposed to blow dry your hair after using and I never blow dry my hair since it dries straight on its own. Retail price is $24.95 for 6.7 Oz!

Model Co. Black Eyeliner (Full Size!): I know a lot of people dislike getting eyeliner, especially black eyeliner, in subs but I love it because I am an eyeliner hoarder! Actually to be honest, I'm an everything make up hoarder lol! I don't use pencil liners too often though, I prefer to use MAC's Fluid line but this eyeliner is a very true dark black and goes on smoothly and effortlessly! I like when pencil liners go on nicely and you don't have to practically stab the crap out of your eye to get the color on there lol This is full size and retails for $18!

Ferro Cosmetics Mineral Eyeshadow in Espresso: I really love this color! I like when I get sample eyeshadows that I can and will actually wear and this is definitely one of those colors! It is pretty shimmery but it doesn't go overboard on the glitter. There isn't much in the sample jar but a little goes a long way with loose pigments! Plus it makes me happy just for the fact that even though there was not much in the sample, at least they put it in a jar and not in like a little bag! 

I really did love this month and I do plan on re-subscribing hopefully in July, I just have to cut down on my subs while I'm traveling so that I don't have them stuck in my mail box forever lol!

I give this month's box an A! They really did a great job! Do you get BB5? If you do what color of eyeshadow did you get?!

APRIL BEAUTY BOX 5!

APRIL BEAUTY BOX 5!

I subscribed to a couple new boxes this month and one of the new ones that I decided to try is Beauty Box 5. I heard about Beauty Box 5 through a Youtube channel that I am subscribed to called Pearls and Daggers the girl on there is absolutely adorable and I love watching her videos! So after seeing a few unboxing videos I decided to sign up for it! Beauty Box 5 costs $12 per month, if you would like your own Beauty Box 5 click Here. 

This is what I got in my first box!

The first item is some Oil-Absorbing facial Tissues by Jean Pierre. This comes in a pack of 50! I love these, especially with summer approaching so these went straight into my purse! This retails for $1.99.

LA FRESH Instant Body Smoother Wipes x2

Retail for about $0.40 each

Model Co. Illusion Lip Pencil in Nude. 

I like having a nude lip liner because it can work well with many different shades. I like this pencil because it is very smooth and doesn't feel dry on my lips.

Retails for $20.

Minxxette Small Brush Hanger.

I am excited for this product! I always dry my brushes on a cloth and when they sit on it for so long it flattens half of the brush, so this will definitely come in handy!

Retails for $4.99.

The last product that I received is an eyeshadow from Brazen Cosmetics in Birthday Suit. It is a nude/natural brown, it is very pretty! 

Overall I really enjoyed this month's box and cannot wait to see what comes in May's box!!
