Walmart Beauty Box

Cost: $6.98

Cycle: Every Quarter/Season

What is it: Every season Walmart sends a little sample products of all sorts of health and beauty type items. It used to be a free sample box with $5 shipping. But they have now changed it to a $6.98 box with free shipping with the promise of better and more full size items.

Always such a good box even when its items I personally wont use.

Eva Nyc H2-Whoa Hydra-Jelly Hair Mask

Full Size: 250 ml

I like Eva Nyc products so I am excited to try this hair mask.

Clairol Pro Primer Pre Color Treatment

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $5.49

This is pretty cool I love pre-treatments but I haven’t dyed my own hair in years so I’ll have to pass this along.

Maybelline Great Lash in Blackest Black

Full Size: 12.7 ml

Full Size Cost: $6.89

Sample Size: 4.5 ml

Always good to have on hand.

I don’t use things like this I find them kind of pointless and they mess my hair up more then a little water would.

Full Size Cost: $4.99

I love this Pink Lemonade Chapstick I have been through a few.

What’s In My Trash? June 2026

nightmareb4

Well got a little back on track this month but not as much catching up as I really wanted. I have a good handle full of products that are almost used up that just didn’t get there.

Skincare (7)

Avette Coconut Mild Foam Cleanser I don’t like cream to foam cleansers so this was fine but not for me.

Repurchase: No

Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Masque me and Kiehl’s just don’t vibe together. This was fine it did clean out my pores I don’t love a super drying mud mask though because they are so hard to wash off.

Repurchase: No

Naisture Tea Tree Mask Pack this was fine I did wake up with a pimple after using this but I think that was more this bringing it out because I’ve been working in heat and dirt a lot lately so I think that was a helpful thing.

Repurchase: Maybe

Fre Glow Me Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30 this did not break me out and it looked fine on my skin but it had an almost gritty texture that I didn’t love.

Repurchase: No

Infinitive Beauty Crystal Collagen Gold Powder Eye Mask these were not great they were so thick you had to stay perfectly still to keep them on and I like to do things while I wear eye patches.

Repurchase: No

Garnier SkinActive Aqua Boost Fresh-Mix Sheet Mask really didn’t like this there was so much serum it was so drippy and it’s the cheaper type of Hylaronic acid so it was super sticky.

Repurchase: No

dani beauty Dewy Face Toner Mist this might as well have been water it was cheap if I needed a really cheap spray I would get it but I wouldn’t seek it out over trying something new or one I really like.

Repurchase: No

Random (2)

Sweet & Shimmer Face and Body Mini Wipes in Frosted Vanilla I loved these little scented wipes I hate that Ulta only does the unscented ones now.

Repurchase: Yes

Old Spice Antiperspirant in Peppermint Slopes this was really nice I like the scent I would get it again if it comes out for Christmas again.

Repurchase: Yes

Home Scents (1)

FCS Scent Diffuser in Jelly of the Month Club this was not a great scent. I am really trying to use up the home scents I have and not get new ones and take a break for a bit to just have less items to manage in my life. For a little while.

Repurchase: No

Lip (1)

Carmex Lip Balm in Merry Berry did not like this flavor as much as the other flavors but still really  great Carmex squeezey tubes are really a top ten lip balm for me.

Repurchase: Yes

Makeup (1)

Lime Crime Venus Liner in Baby’s Breathe I think this company went out of business maybe from all the scandals. This was a great white but hard to use and dried out fairly quickly.

Repurchase: No

Bodycare (3)

Robinson Family Soaps Blissful Summer Salt Soak this was pretty terrible I didn’t like the scent and it left bits all through my tub that were hard to clean.

Repurchase: No

FCS Body Bomb in I Love You Most this had no scent and no color.

Repurchase: No

365 Coconut Milk Bath Bomb this was pretty good it had no color which I get this is a more natural brand. I could really smell the coconut milk and it really made my skin feel nice.

Repurchase: Maybe

Haircare (2)

Not Your Mothers Tough Love Intense Bonding Treatment this was fine not as good as Olapex.

Repurchase: No

Amika Normcore Signature Shampoo I really didn’t like this it left my hair dry.

Repurchase: No

Declutter (1)

Garnier SkinActive Aqua Boost Fresh-Mix Sheet Mask I didn’t like this so getting rid of the other one I had in my stock.
