Macy’s Beauty Box

Cost: $15

Cycle: Every Month

What is it: Every month you will get a bag, a $5 off coupon with a purchase amount which I hate (SUCH A DOWNGRADE), 5 deluxe samples and 1 bonus sample. Why not just say 6? I don’t get it. Lately we have been getting between 6 and 8 items per month you never really know how many things you are going to get.

All the brands will be brands you can find in Macy’s which is cool since they sell Mac and a lot of other brands that are never to rarely seen in subscription boxes.

Well i just was busy and had some hard times and just didn’t feel like reviewing Macy’s for awhile, but I am back with it now.

Oil Absorbing Stone Roller

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $8.00

I didn’t think this would work but it totally did. What I didn’t love is it sorta left and orange powder on my face which I was not expecting at all. It was fine I was able to pat it out pretty easily but that was weird. It was also really easy to take apart to wash.

Nudestix Nudies Matte All Over Face Blush Color in Cherie

Full Size: 7 g

Full Size Cost: $35

Sample Size: 1.8 g

Value: $9

I don’t love the formula of this it goes on well and blends well but it is not long wearing. I have this in a different shade but i like this shade a lot more and it is alot more fall friendly.

Anastasia Brow Definer in Soft Brown

Full Size: 0.2 g

Full Size Cost: $26

Sample Size: 0.1 g

Value: $13

I don’t really use pencils like this i do my eyebrows rarely so I will pass this on also this color is too light for me.

Peter Thomas Roth Instant Firm No Filter Primer

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $42

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $7

This I am excited to try because I know the firming eye cream works. I am worried this won’t feel great on the skin though because the eye thing is really tacky and tight and heavy.

Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser

Full Size: 115 ml

Full Size Cost: $39

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $1.70

I don’t really like Clarins but this will get used.

Beauty Stat Universal C Skin Refiner

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $85

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $14.17

I have definitely received this before and I think used it but really can’t remember at all. Also why is it so pricey.

Not the best box for sure.

Fan

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $1.31

I like fans like this for drying my setting spray and such and my current one was getting a bit old so this is nice to have it is paper and very like party favor quality so I don’t think this will hold up for a long time.

Valentino Born in Roma

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $135

Sample Size: 1.2 ml

Value: $3.24

I have had a few samples of this I don’t think I like it and I have so many perfumes I need to get through that I will pass this along.

Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $135

Sample Size: 7 ml

Value: $31.50

I am sick of seeing this sample and I don’t think it does anything.

NudeStix NudeScreen Lip Primer SPF 30

Full Size: 10 ml

Full Size Cost: $20

Well this was not what I was expecting at all. This comes out like a nude brown it is very liquidy and feels a bit tingly on. not it blends nicely into the lips but it is not something you can put on with out a mirror so for me that defeats the point of a lip balm with sunscreen since I primarily use them when I am out and about. I will give this a fair shot but I do not see this lasting long in my life.

Kiehl’s Powerful Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $79

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $7.90

I like vitamin C and will probably just use this up this month it has been awhile since I have used a vitamin C for brightening.

Kopari Sun Shield Soft Glow Daily Face SPF 30

Full Size: 44 ml

Full Size Cost: $38

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $4.32

Always down to try a new face sunscreen.

First Aid Beauty Bump Eraser Body Scrub

Full Size: 8 oz

Full Size Cost: $30

Sample Size: 1 oz

Value: $3.75

I have like enough of these samples now that I think I have a full size tube. I really should use them

Kiehl’s did a brand take over this month. I have a weird relationship with Kiehl’s some things are great and some things I hate and I never know which it will be.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser

Full Size: 150 ml

Full Size Cost: $25

Sample Size: 30 ml

Value: $5

I don’t like this cleanser it is too creamy and I don’t feel clean after using it.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $39

Sample Size: 7 ml

Value: $5.46

I just don’t like the Ultra Line I feel like its to heavy even though it isn’t supposed to be.

Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Masque

Full Size: 125 ml

Full Size Cost: $47

Sample Size: 14 ml

Value: $5.26

This I am excited to try my skin has been so congested. Even though I don’t love clay masks I just have a good feeling about this one actually being effective at pulling gunk out.

Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment

Full Size: 28 g

Full Size Cost: $60

Sample Size: 7 g

Value: $15

I feel like this should be pretty nice and cooling at least.

Kiehl’s Truly Targeted Acne-Clearing Solution

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $30

Sample Size: 4 ml

Value: $8

This is kinda cool. So it forms it’s own pimple patch you dot it on and it seals up like a liquid bandaid. I feel like this could be really good and better then pimple patches if it works well.

Kiehl’s Better Screen UV Serum

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $42

Sample Size: 2 ml

Value: $1.68

Always down to try a new sunscreen but this is weird. So this says it doesn’t qualify as sunscreen but according to the ingredients it does and the full size also says that it does not really sure what the deal with that is very odd.

I like brand take over boxes I like getting to see multiple items from a brand and really get a feel for them. Not a good value or item amount this month though so that is really disappointing.
