Beauty Box 5 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 while back when they had a crazy deal that brought the cost of an annual subscription down to $6.58/month.
Beauty Box 5 ships via DHL and took under a week to arrive. They send tracking e-mails out, but I (still) can’t access my account online (I am not one of their BETA members) which kind of bugs me.
I received this box a few days ago and was totally unspoiled when I opened it up.
The May 2015 Beauty Box 5 included the following items:
~Bio Swiss Stainless Steel Mini Tweezer ($4.97): I am always losing tweezers so I was thrilled to see these in here! They are mini (not that full-size tweezers are that large) so you can easily throw them in your purse or travel makeup bag.
~Essenza Luxury Hand Soap ($0.60): Not super exciting, but it smells good and does it’s job. I don’t get a lot of hand soap on subscription boxes which makes it a nice change of pace.
~Styli-Style Blush Highlighter Stick (Bittersweet) ($5.99): This is described as a brown / pink, but it looks more orange at first glance. But when you try it on it is indeed a deeper rose color. I liked it much better on than I did in the package.
~Dermalogica Active Moist ($4.24): I have used some Dermalogica items in the past and have generally been happy with them. I am going to wait on this for a bit though or just use it when I travel because I have some other items I am currently finishing up.
~Coastal Scents Class/Synthetic Brush (~$2):I am oddly happy with this little brush! It’s the exact type of brush I love and I won’t feel too badly if I lose it because it is so inexpensive!
All totaled I came up with a value of $17.80 for the May 2015 Beauty Box 5. My super great Beauty Box 5 deal is ending and I don’t think I am going to renew. I would if I could get the same price, but I am not sure I want to pay full price after getting such a great deal for so long.
