Beauty Box 5: December ~Merry and Bright~

Today I'm here to share my month subscription box from Beauty Box 5. I would normally share this a bit sooner (like last month), but it came a little late last month probably due to the holidays and the mail services being so crazy. 

Beauty Box 5 ships to the US (free shipping) and Canada ($3.00 shipping) 
$12/month or they also have annual subscriptions for a cheaper rate. 

Here's what I got:

Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Moisturizer: This is a certified organic moisturizer. I have really been enjoying this. Normally I get nervous with new facial products, but this is very hydrating which is great for my dry skin. 

Jaqua Hand Creme - Pink Champagne: This lotion smells amazing! I have this in my purse to use daily.  

Absolute New York Nail Polish Remover Pads: These are really handy. I am the type of person that hates having chipped nail polish and when it does chip, I want it off right away. These are perfect to keep in my bag for emergencies. 

Nanacoco Nail Polish: This was definitely a big disappointment for me. I am not a fan at all of Nanacoco nail polishes, they are just not up to par with any other polishes. 

Not pictured:

Lucky Brand Lucky Number 6 Perfume: I was supposed to get this in my box but I actually didn't for some reason. 

Overall I will use 3/5 of the products this month because I didn't get a chance to try out the perfume.

Beauty Box 5 | October 2014

Happy Thursday friends, today I am sharing my October Beauty Box 5 subscription.

The Beauty Box 5 is $12.00 a month or $8.00 a month for an annual subscription. Five beauty products delivered right to your door. 

Lashem | Picture Perfect Instant Wrinkle Reducer - I received a Lashem product last month as well and I liked the product. These are very small samples so it's hard to see if you get any good results to see if you would want to purchase the full size. So far though, I am enjoying this product. 

Nanacoco | Nail Polish (Full Size) - I of course love getting new nail polish but this color just is not for me at all. I did see some other girls got different colors, and they were really pretty though!

Extend Your Beauty | Cosmetic Tool (Full Size) This product is pretty cool, I am actually nearing the end of my foundation and I think this product will come in handy. I always hate when my pump stops even though there is quite a bit of product left in the bottle! I'm pretty excited to use this tool, and it's dishwasher safe so you can re-use it!

ChapStick | Hydration Lock (Full Size) I was super excited about this lip product because my lips have been super dry lately and I have been eyeing this since it came out! I love that it has two ends of product; one for moisture and one that says renew. I have been loving it. 

Bellapierre | Cheek and Lip Stain "Pink" - I am not one to get too excited over lip and cheek stains so this wasn't that exciting for me. I think it is a pretty color but too bright for my skin tone. 


With three full size products this month, I am pretty happy! 

Go check out Beauty Box 5 and try out a new subscription service! Even if you already have one you love, you can never have enough beauty products.

Beauty Box 5 | September 2014

Today I am back after taking last week off, mostly because I was sick and partly because I needed to not think about anything other than school for a while. 

I had a great mail day last week where I received my Beauty Box 5 for September and since I didn't look at spoilers this time, I was actually surprised when I opened my box! Since I blog about BB5 every month I figure by now you know it is a monthly subscription service that delivers five products mid month right to your door. The cost is $12/month but if you sign up and pay for months in advance it is cheaper each month. 

Chrislie Formulations | 3 in 1 Eye Bright - (Not Pictured) I was really excited about this product because I am very dry under my eyes which causes my makeup to crease if I don't apply enough moisturizer before application. I found that this didn't do much for me, It was a nice oil consistency, but other than that it didn't provide any other results that made me want to repurchase it. Also, I only used smaller than a pea size once and the little bottle is almost empty - not sure if it was an accident. 

My Beauty Spot | Nail Polish - I have never heard of this brand of nail polish, but I did like the color. When I opened my box the polish was really gooey though; maybe from the heat in traveling? I tried a swatch and it is a very pretty color with good pigmentation.

Sally Hansen | Toe Spacers - Do people really space their toes when painting them? I have never needed to. Not sure if I'll get any use out of these. 

Nicka K | Eyelight Crayon - The one I received is in this pretty green color that is very wearable, especially for fall. I will definitely use this product.

Natural Style by FUBU | Deep Conditioner (2) - I love deep conditioners, but I wouldn't use this product from roots to ends like it says on the package. My roots get pretty oily if I apply deep conditioning products to them. 

All in all, I would say this was an okay month for Beauty Box 5. Nothing really made me too excited, but I do have some new products to try out.

Check out Beauty Box 5 and use the code HALFOFF for half off of your first box.
