Earlier this month Beauty Box 5 had a buy one get one free promotion so I thought I was a good time to try out their subscription box. I've been eyeing it for awhile and I just can't resist a buy one get one free deal.
I wanted to share with you guys what came in my box for April!
I'll go left to right:Blum Naturals All-Purpose Cleansing Wipes in Fresh Scent: First of all I love the plastic container the wipes are in. It seems very convenient for travel and once the wipes are gone I'll probably reuse the container. I also love that these wipes are cruelty free. They say they are made with natural and certified organics ingredients and are paraben-free, which I know is important to a lot of people. Just to let you know the Fresh Scent has a light peppermint smell, so if you don't like peppermint you should pick another scent. Now one thing I'm a little confused about is the purpose of these wipes. I thought they might be for make up removal since it's a beauty subscription box, but no where on the container does it say 'make up removal.' I think I'll be using them to take swatches off my hands after blog posts or I'll stick them in my lunch box. Either way I'm happy with them.
NickaK Lipstick in Daring: This lipstick looks very red in the tube, but when I swatched it I noticed it had more of a pink undertone than I was expecting. I'm not really a red lipstick girl, but I'll try it out. (By the way it is the bottom swatch in the photo.)BH Cosmetics California Collection Sampler: This sampler has one shade from each of the California palettes by BH Cosmetics. There is a matte purple, a shimmery light brown, and a shimmery gold. I already have one of the BH California palettes so only two of these colors are new to me. I'll probably still use it though.
Jergen's Natural Glow: Really BB5? Foil packs? Every girl that buys subscription boxes hates foil packs. There usually isn't very much product in them. That being said these feel quite full and there are three of them. Jergen's Natural Glow is a self tanner that says it takes '3 Days to Glow,' hence the three packets. I'm a very pale girl, so I will definitely get use out of this.
Bonnebell Lip Definer in Apple Cider: If you refer back to the swatch photo, this is the top color shown. It is less brown than it looks like in the photo. I've never used a lip liner so I'm not sure what I think about this yet. It's a decent color, so I'll try it. Sorry I don't have more to say about this.
Overall I'm fairly happy I know I'll use at least three of the items for sure and the other two things I'm open to trying. I can't wait to see what next May's box is like!
