Beauty Box 5 Review


BeautyBox 5 is an online beauty subscription that is only $12/p month or you can purchase quarterly or yearly subscriptions which save you money. The box comes in a Tiffany Blue which is really cute. Inside, 4-5 samples. I was really excited to receive my first BeautyBox5. This is no ordinary samples and the $12 are really worth it.



My box contained the following:

What is Beauty Box 5:
-This is a sample service that charges different amounts allowing you to test it out for $12 a month, pay $30 quarterly (saving $6), or $100 yearly (saving a whopping $44) which I really like. Even monthly it isn't too unreasonable. Its only $2 more than Birchbox or MyGlam which is do-able in my book.

- Samples come in a blue/green colored cardboard box with a drawstring baggie of samples + an info card.

- You receive 4-5 samples a month. - See more at: http://stephanielouiseatb.blogspot.com/2012/08/july-2012-my-first-beauty-box-5-review.html#sthash.QX1EqbJT.dpuf

Tree Hut Shea Butter Body Scrub in Coconut Lime: Natural Organic Shea Butter. I love any body scrub that does wonders. This is definitely my favorite from the box. It leaves your skin feeling smooth and fresh after the shower and the smell is amazing,

Bodygraphy Foundation Primer in Clear: Another great product, I have never heard of the brand but I think its great it is so soft and it leaves your face smooth. It comes on clean and matte. So you wont look oily. This is something to look forward once I finish my sample.

Brazen Organic Cosmetic Mineral Eyeshadow in Birthday Suit. I have to say this is my least favorite. I do not like shimmery shadows and the packaging is awful. I wished it would come in a different form. The color does not go well on me on my opinion. 

Model Co Ultra Lip Gloss in Strip Tease is another great product. Again I have never heard of the brand but I liked the color and consistency of the liquid. My favorite part was the convenient mirror You can take it anywhere and reapply at convenience. Works well with nude lipsticks.

 

Blinc Mascara: It is water-resistant, no smudge, no run, flake-free. It is said to give length, volume, lasting power. It is meant to be left on so no makeup remover is necessary. I love this sample it gave me darker fuller lashes instantly.

Overall I think the BeautyBox5 is a great service, great product value and you are really getting your moneys worth. Most of the products can be considered deluxe samples if not full size such as the body scrub. It is an affordable subscription. This is a great gift for any women who loves beauty items. It is a great way to try brands/products you have never heard of before. I know I have beauty staples that I first tried through samples and I now love. Also if you travel like me you know you cant take everything with you so these are great sizes to travel with.

-Blinc Mascara 
 I've gotten this before... think twice? It just isn't for me. Its supposed to be water-resistant, no smudge, flake-free, & is a tubing mascara. It just didn't give me the length, volume, or lasting power. I know some people LOVE it though so this isn't a bad sample.

Full size: $26.00 for 0.21 oz   Sample: 0.02 oz which is $2.48 - See more at: http://stephanielouiseatb.blogspot.com/2012/08/july-2012-my-first-beauty-box-5-review.html#sthash.QX1EqbJT.dpuf

Beginner's Green Recipe

A couple of months ago I watched a documentary on Netflix called "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" and I was motivated to change my lifestyle and eating habits. When I was younger, around 12-13 I believe I ended up in the hospital for a very bad ache on my stomach. I couldn't move and I fainted. I ended up staying in the hospital for about 3 days with IV's on my hands. I was very skinny less than 90 pounds. All I had eaten was a bag of Hot Cheetos and a Pepsi. I was dehydrated. I pretty much learned my lesson, I couldn't eat any meat for years, I stopped drinking soda and it took me 6 years for my stomach to be able to handle things suck as steak, or even a hamburger. Ok, I have to admit I did not eat healthy all throughout my college years because of time and money. Now that I am done with school I am trying to go back on track and change my eating habits. After watching the documentary I decide to try these juices they are talking so much about. I had never like...

Hask Hair Chia Seed Oil Volumizing Collection Review

I am very excited to share yet gain a Hask product I am absolutely in love with. This is the Hask Chia Seed Oil Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner duo that have hydra boost. I have always had straight hair and liveless for that matter so a volumizing shampoo is exactly what I need. With previous Hask products I have had great results so I had high hopes for this one since the beginning.  What I love about this collection is that it is free of sulfates, parabens, alcohol and artificial colors. Hask has a variety of products for your special hair needs, including  Hask give results they added volume to my usually straight hair. My hair looks healthier and gives me a natural bounce that I usually achieve by blow drying my hair and teasing it.  Hask Hair products are very affordable, you get salon quality hair for the price of drugstore. They are $6 a piece and in my opinion a great investment for your beauty routine. They save you time and money and I reco...
