Fall 2016 Walmart Beauty Box

Walmart Beauty Box

Cost: $5

Cycle: Every Quarter/Season

What is it: Every season Walmart sends out a box of samples and sometimes coupons in their “free” subscription box. The box is a flat shipping rate of $5 and the box is considered free.


This is my first box I have ever received from Walmart.  I signed up about a week before the box was set to ship out and received the box fairly quickly within 2 weeks of signing up. So on to the part every one cares about what I got and how much it was worth.

Here’s what the box looks like:

I actually used this while putting this post together and I loved it cleaned out my pores and the charcoal mopped up a lot of the oil that builds up on my nose.  They did leave a bit of black residue that was a pain in the ass to get off but it worked well enough I can look past that.

Here’s what Hello has to say about their toothpaste:

“Say hello to Hello Naturally Friendly Pure Mint Extra Whitening Fluoride Toothpaste. It whitens teeth with no peroxide. With no dyes, artificial sweeteners or preservatives, it’s a no brainer! Hello has thoughtfully formulated the toothpaste with high-quality ingredients like xylitol, stevia and a silica and calcium carbonate blend that gently whitens teeth, prevents cavities, strengthens enamel and freshens breath. Plus, it is vegan and never tested on animals.”

I got the Pure Mint flavor normally I would save this for travel but I am almost out of toothpaste and curious to try this so look back for a review in the near future. Walmart also included a $1 off coupon.

I actually like this scent surprisingly the cream out weighs the peony and I hate floral scents so its nice that I can tolerate this one.  This will be great for throwing into an overnight bag.  Its a nice moisturizing body wash I have a full size of the vanilla scent and its a very creamy body wash.

I don’t take baths often but this will be nice after a long day at work I’m sure and its a really good sample size. And its a brand I’ve never heard of which is also cool and kinda the whole point of these boxes.

This is like THE dry shampoo every one talks about and I had never tried so I was psyched to see it in this box. Unfortunately I do not like this I don’t love dry  shampoo in general but this left a horrible white cast in my dark hair that I had a hell of a time brushing out.  Might be really good for like a bride of Frankenstein look with out having to use that nasty spray on hair color so that could be a good use


Overall Impression

So overall the box had a total value of $6.10 so only a $1.10 more then I paid but there was a nice mix of product types and brand types so I am satisfied with the box.  I would have liked to see the box value be around $8 dollars and to have seen at least one makeup item but I am happy enough that I will be keeping the subscription it is only$20 a year and gives out some nice sample sizes for travel.  Well hope you enjoyed my rambling please comment, subscribe, follow me on Instagram the Instagram badge on the bottom (like right there hint hint) should be working but its nightmarebeforemakeup if you are interested and the badge isn’t working.
