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.

This is box was a Sunday Riley takeover. I really like the take over boxes and getting to use a whole line of products. I wished this had the C.E.O. Oil that is one of my favorite Sunday Riley products all the oils are really. .But I really love the C.E.O Line in general.

C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Vitamin C Cream

Full Size: 50 g

Full Size Cost: $65

Sample Size: 8 g

Value: $10.40

I like this cream it has a really nice comforting orangey scent and I love this line I’m excited to get to use more then just a one time use sample.

Sunday Riley Auto Correct Brightening and Depuffing Eye Contour Cream

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $65

Sample Size: 3 ml

Value: $13

I have never tried this one I don’t usually like dark circle correcting eye creams the tone never works with my skin tone but I’m game to give it a go.

Sunday Riley A+ High-Dose Retinoid Serum

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $122

Sample Size: 5 ml

This is a good retinoid and pretty strong for a retinoid verse a retinol.

C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $122

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $12.20

I like this serum I love things with Vitamin C not as much as the oil but if you don’t like oils this would be the next best thing for brightening.

Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $122

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $12.20

This is not my favorite lactic acid treatment out there and it is expensive for what it is. I have one or two little bottles to use but this one I will pass along.

Sunday Riley Eye Contour Tool

I don’t care for this style of facial tool/eye cream applicator I feel like I am going to poke myself in the eye with it but it is really heavy and pretty, alot nice quality then alot of the other bonus items we get.

The timing of these boxes is just so inconsistent.

Hair Brush

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $7.99

This is an unbranded Wet Brush knock off. I don’t like these style of brushes so I won’t use it. I linked to a similar unbranded detangling brush.

La Perla Luminous Eau De Perfume

Full Size: 90 ml

Full Size Cost: $138

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $2.30

I have never heard of this perfume before but it is much to woody for me.

Rebecca Minkoff Blush Perfume

Full Size: 100 ml

Full Size Cost: $90

Sample Size: 2 ml

Value: $1.80

This is alot brighter of a perfume and I am much more interested in it then the other perfume. I like that it is a 2 ml sample as well because I will get two solid uses out if it rather then one good use and one skimpy use.

Buttah Tea Tree and Aloe Mask Scrub

Full Size: 100 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 10 ml

Value: $2.40

I like the concept of this I am excited to use this. I also don’t go through physical scrubs fast so I like having smaller tubes sometimes because this is an achievable thing for me to use up quickly.

Eve Lom Foaming Cream Cleanser

Full Size: 120 ml

Full Size Cost: $60

Sample Size: 20 ml

Value: $10

I know this brand is crazy expensive I have never tried anything from this brand. I have a feeling I won’t like this I don’t usually like Foaming cleansers or cream cleansers.

Naturally Serious Skin Warrior Moisture Rescue Cream

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $35

Sample Size: 7.5 ml

Value: $5.25

Very basic looking moisturizer.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream

Full Size: 50

Full Size Cost: $138

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $13.80

I have definitely used this before and I don’t think it is worth the crazy price at all, but I will use it again.

Fekkai Apple Cider Detox Scrub Exfoliant

Full Size: 220 ml

Full Size Cost: $38

Sample Size: 60 ml

Value: $10.36

I love scalp scrubs so I am happy to have this.

Well this was an odd box a little big 2 perfumes 2 face moisturizers and 2 cleansers a little weird like why so many doubles. I like that this was mostly brand new items that we have never had before.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel

Full Size: 7.85 ml

Full Size Cost: $22

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $4.20

I don’t use brow gel but this is so tiny and cute!

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso

Full Size: 3 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $12

These are some of my favorite liquid lipsticks the formula and colors are so great. They are long wearing I really love them.

Korres Foaming Cream Cleanser

Full Size: 150 ml

Full Size Cost: $28

Sample Size: 20 ml

Value: $3.73

I feel like I have tried this and hated it but I can’t remember so I guess I will try it again.

Laura Geller Prep Stick Lip Scrub

Full Size: 4.5 g

Full Size Cost: $21

Well this is full size which is nice and it smells fruity but it it isn’t super scrubby looking or feeling when I rubbed it on my hand so I don’t have high hopes that this will be that good.

Rachel Zoe Fearless Perfume

This came totally empty and customer service is such a pain with Macy’s that I don’t want to fight over a $2 perfume sample.

Nudestix Magnetic Luminous Eye Color in Nudity

Full Size: 3 g (plus mirrored case and sharpener)

Full Size Cost: $27

Sample Size: 2.5 g

Value: $20

I have a few of these and they are really great I just don’t use shadow sticks enough to justify opening and keeping this knowing it is in a brown shade similar to ones I already have open. But they are really great quality and this is almost full size.

You Are Amazing Post-it Notes

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $3

This is random but useful. It is totally something you could get at the dollar store but it feels pretty high quality so I will give it more value then that sometimes these random things they include are so so cheap feeling. It is cute it isn’t my taste.

This was a really good box like im not even mad about them empty perfume. I will say their shipping is all over the place the February box came on March 1st and this came 14 days later like what why.
