April 2014 Beauty Box 5

Beauty Box 5 is a monthly subscription service that delivers a sample box of all things beauty. Each box contains 4 – 5 samples of a variety of makeup, skin care, fragrances and everything in between!  Boxes are $12/month if you do a month-to-month subscription, however, I subscribed a few months ago when they had an insane deal that brought the cost of an annual subscription down to $6.58/month.  How could I resist?

The Box

Beauty Box 5 ships via DHL Global Mail.  It starts out in DHL’s hands and is then delivered by USPS. I got my shipping e-mail yesterday and the box arrived today, but I am not 100% sure how long it took to get here since they don’t send tracking along with the e-mail.

First Look

I am always surprised at how small the Beauty Box 5 boxes are and how much stuff they pack in them!

The Information Card

The April 2014 Beauty Box 5 focused on looks that call for a little leisurely layering which allow you to enjoy your mornings and take a little more time for yourself.  Here is what was included:

~BH Cosmetics California Collection Eyeshadow Palette (~$3): I actually received this came palette back in an ipsy over the summer, so I am going to try to trade this one.  I do really like the colors though and think it’s a great travel sized palette!

~Nicka K New York Hydro Lipstick ($4.99): I am more into lipgloss than lipstick, so my SIL gets all the lipsticks I get.  I haven’t gotten a ton lately, so I was very happy to see this!  She’s going to love it!

~Blum Naturals All Purpose Cleansing Wipes ($2.49): OMG how cute is this mini wipe container?  You can use them to remove eye makeup or correct minor cosmetics mistakes. Or anything else. Love!!!!!!

~Jergens Natural Glow – 3 Days to Glow Moisturizer (~$2): I have actually been eyeing this at CVS and was SO excited to see it in here.  I will totally be reporting back on how this one works.  Just as soon as I scrub all this winter skin off!

~Bonne Bell Lip Definer ($2): I don’t use lip liner on a regular basis, so I will either pass this on to my SIL or use it will clear lipgloss like they recommend!

All totaled I came up with a value of $14.48 for the April 2014 Beauty Box 5.  It’s not as valuable as some of the BB5 boxes I have received, but for the price I paid I am happy!!
