It always impresses me how nice they package these Walmart boxes and how much they put in there for the $5 you are paying.

It was really packed this season.

Olay Tone Perfecting Cream

Full Size: 48 g

Full Size Cost: $24.49

Sample Size: 0.6 g

Total Value: $0.31

Little Olay sample with a coupon. These are great for weekend trips and nights away from home.

Body Fantasies Layering Collection

Full Size: 3 oz

Full Size Cost: $9.88

Sample Size: 0.75 oz

Total Value: $2.47

This is surprisingly nice for a sample size of a sampler product. These are glass vials with prayers and about half the size of what comes in the layering set. These are not my ideal fragrances. I’m not into cottons but its a really nice generous sample.

Plackers Micro Mint Travel Case

Full Size: 12 picks

Full Size Cost: $1.48

Sample Size: 12 picks

Total Value: $1.48

These are great I have used them before I find them very useful to keep in the car for anything you get stuck in your teeth on the go.

Hello Toothpaste Extra Whitening in Pure Mint

Full Size: 4.2 oz

Full Size Cost: $4.49

Sample Size: 0.85 oz

Total Value: $0.91

Great travel size toothpaste. I have used this before and I really like it, it is a really nice toothpaste how much can I say about toothpaste.

Tresemmé Tres Two Hair Spray

Full Size: 4.2 oz

Full Size Cost: $3.79

Sample Size: 1.5 oz

Total Value: $1.26

I don’t use hair spray so there isn’t much I can offer in terms of opinion.

Soo Ae Donkey Milk Sleeping Mask

Full Size: 10 g

Full Size Cost: $3.30

Sample Size: 10 g

Total Value: $3.30

I like sleeping masks they are the lazy way to mask so next time my skin is feeling dry (which is rare) I will try this out.

Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl & Shine Shampoo

Full Size: 384 ml

Full Size Cost: $9.97

Sample Size: 15 ml

Total Value: $0.39

Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie

Full Size: 355 ml

Full Size Cost: $11.97

Sample Size: 30 ml

Total Value: $1.01

So I hate the coconut hibiscus scent when I tried it in other products from Shea Moisture and I don’t love curl enhancing products so I will probably pass this one.

Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion Radiant Silk

Full Size: 400  ml

Full Size Cost: $5.48

Sample Size: 9 ml

Total Value: $0.12

The in-shower lotion is just weird to me I don’t feel like it sinks in or moisturizers my skin. I like my after shower lotion to make my skin feel super soft and silky and this does not do that for me.

Nivea Oil Infused Lotion in Cherry Blossom

Full Size: 500 ml

Full Size Cost: $5.49

Sample Size: 4 ml

Total Value: $0.04

This might be a lotion I can get into I prefer oils to lotions for my body.

Gold Bond Ultimate Radiance Renewal Hydrating Cream

Full Size: 14 oz

Full Size Cost: $7.99

Sample Size: 0.75 oz

Total Value: $0.43

This is a very thick cream that will be great for dry skin this winter. It is a little greasy but not as much as you would expect for something this thick.

Walmart always has consistently adorable packaging for $5 this is really such a fun box I am almost considering making another account so I can get the Classic box as well.

Here’s what this Summer’s Trendsetter box looks like.

They always send out such great reusable boxes. I love a good box lol some people don’t know what that means but people who get it these are good boxes.

8 products this month, a bit more substantial sizes then last season.

Impress One Step Gel Press-On Manicure

Full Size: 1 package

Full Size Cost: $4.50

Sample Size: 1 package

Total Value: $4.50

This alone is worth almost the cost of the box. I couldn’t find this exact one online it does say this is a gift and not for resale so this is some kind of sample but that it is ok. It is still the same size as a a for sale package. These are pretty cute but long nails are not really my thing. They have white nails with a few different accent nails, there are gold glitter, a gold glitter pattern and a one that has love written on it in a pretty script.

EcoTools Mask Remover Sponges

Full Size: 2 sponges

Full Size Cost: $2.50

Sample Size: 2 sponges

Total Value: $2.50

Another full size product. These are the thing in the box I was the most excited about. I got this wet with warm water like the instructions said and it was so rough on my face. I then really really soaked it in water and it expanded and got softer and then did a great job of removing my face mask I really liked it after that. It was decently exfoliating even those these are supposed to be gentle exfoliation. These are great and cheap so if you are into face masks these are worth a try just make sure to really soak them in water.

Wally’s Natural Organic Body Oil

Full Size: 2 oz

Full Size Cost: $8.88

Sample Size: 0.017 oz

Total Value: $0.08

I am always down to try a new body oil this is much nicer then the palmer’s oil from the last box. This has a nice light almost fruity smell and felt moisturizing but not greasy where I applied it. The full size is also a roll on which is really cool and useful if you want to use this on stretch marks.

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes

Full Size: 7 wipes

Full Size Cost: $1.47

Sample Size: 7 wipes

Total Value: $1.47

I have been dying to try these so these will be going straight in my travel bag for my vacation next month. You can read all about how I feel about them in my August empties. Shameless plug to have you check back and keep reading. This is also the full size travel version of these wipes to to me that makes a third full size product go Walmart they always create a great box for $5. we are already well over what I paid for the box.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion

Full Size: 12

Full Size Cost: $6.97

Sample Size: 1 oz

Total Value: $$0.58

I did not like this at all this has dimethicone in it to help lock in moisture I don’t need that much moisture so to me this makes me feel like I have gloves on or something. This is truly fragrance free no scent whatsoever so that is nice.

göt2b glued Styling Spiking Glue

Full Size: 6 oz

Full Size Cost: $3.99

Sample Size: 1.25 oz

Total Value: $0.83

I have no need for spiking glue I never use gel but my girlfriend was excited for it so this will be going to her.

Pantene Pro-V Dream Care Shampoo

Full Size: 30.4 oz

Full Size Cost: $6.99

Sample Size: 1.7 oz

Total Value: $0.39

Looks like Pantene, smells like Pantene must be Pantene. I don’t really use a lot of shampoo this is bound to get lost in a drawer somewhere.

Pantene Pro-V Dream Care Conditioner

Full Size: 23.7

Full Size Cost: $5.99

Sample Size: 1.7 oz

Total Value: $0.43

I love the little hook on this like you’re going to hook it to your key chain or something makes me laugh. This will probably get used at some point but I’m generally it excited about the shampoo and conditioner shampoo.

3 full sized items in a five dollar box is impressive and the value is more then double. Every one really should get this box. I really love the sponges and the wipes are so useful. The oil is going to be a great little thing to try.

Once again Walmart really scores with some of the cutest packaging that I receive in my subscription boxes and it is definitely my most inexpensive box.

We have a nice pink, white and gold box with a lid that will make a great box to repurpose.

We have some nice floral paper that is actually really nice quality and will also be great for repurposing either as wrapping paper or a decoration.

Got alot of stuff in this box so lets break it all down.

Jergens Natural Glow Wet Skin Moisturizer

Full Size: 7.5 oz

Full Size Cost: $7.99

Sample Size: 2 oz

Total Value: $2.13

I don’t like wet skin moisturizers I find that they do not absorb into my skin when it is wet but I do like gradual tanning lotions for evening out tan lines in the summer so this will get used up but will take me awhile even for such a small sample.

Bioré Baking Soda Acne Scrub

Full Size: 4.5 oz

Full Size Cost: $6.47

Sample Size: 1 oz

Total Value: $1.44

I love baking soda cleansers. I have used a small sample of this before and really really enjoyed it. So I am am happy to have a large sample now. It gently exfoliates with and feels effective at the same time. and really eats up excess oil on my face.

John Frieda Frizz Ease Daily Nourishment Moisturizing Conditioner

Full Size: 8.45 oz

Full Size Cost: $5.47

Sample Size: 1.5 oz

Total Value: $0.97

Eh a conditioner not that exciting and I’m not a huge fan of the Frizz Ease Line.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Ultra Moisture Shampoo

Full Size: 13.6 oz

Full Size Cost: $5.47

Sample Size: 1.7 oz

Total Value: $0.68

More shampoo there’s always shampoo in these boxes. This would have been a good travel product if the tops weren’t so weird they pop off rather then twisting off. This looks creamy and smells nice as well as having keratin in it so it should be a nice shampoo good for at least 2 uses for me.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Ultra Moisture Conditioner

Full Size: 13.6 oz

Full Size Cost: $5.47

Sample Size: 1.7 oz

Total Value: $0.68

And more conditioner but this one matches the shampoo. It is always nice to get a matching set but it is pretty boring.

Palmer’s Coconut Oil Luminous Hydration Facial Oil

Full Size: 1 oz

Full Size Cost: $9.88

Sample Size: 0.03 oz

Total Value: $0.30

This is a very thick oil that I will definitely not be putting on my face. But it smells nicely of coconut and is hydrating and will get used probably mixed in with some body lotion. This claims to be made of 10 oils (Extra virgins coconut, Tahitian monoi, sweet almond, macadamia, argan, grapeseed, maracuja, sunflower, apricot, sesame) this would be great for really dry skin.

Palmer’s Coconut Oil Facial Moisturizer

Full Size:  1.7 oz

Full Size Cost: $8.98

Sample Size: 0.17 oz

Total Value: $0.90

Again not something I’ll Use on my face but I’ll definitely use it as a regular lotion.

Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation in 200 Soft Beige

Full Size:   30 ml

Full Size Cost: $3.29

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Total Value: $0.16

This also came with a coupon. I’m pretty excited for this sample I have wanted to try this foundation for awhile but I kept not buying it. I don’t know that this is going to be a good shade match at all but I can at least see the formula.

---

I am most excited about the foundation sample and the Bioré cleanser. They alone make me excited for the box.
