Cost: $15
Cycle: Every Month
What is it: Every month you will get a bag, a $5 off coupon (sometimes $10), 5 deluxe samples and 1 bonus sample. Why not just say 6? I don’t get it.
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 in subscription boxes.
The cool thing about the coupon is that it is good in stores and online also Macy’s does have sales and $5 products so if you are strategic you can score a free product every month. Depending on your state you may still have to pay tax but it is still basically free.
This bag has super 80s vibes this month to me at least with the double vision pink and blue lips on black idk I wasn’t there but I assume that’s what the 80s was like.
Mario Badescu Facial Spray With Aloe Cucumber and Green Tea
Full Size: 2 oz
Full Size Cost: $5
Sample Size: 2 oz
Value: $5
I don’t love the green tea spray my favorite is the orange blossom one but I can use the green tea one and I have become addicted to facial sprays so it is nice to have more and one that I could travel with if I wanted to. The scent of this is pretty inoffensive and it is a fine facial spray not my favorite but it is ok.
Full Size: 1 Mask
Full Size Cost: $17
Sample Size: 1 Mask
Value: $17
Sorry this picture is so shitty it is really hard to take a picture of essentially a crumpled aluminum foil bag. The price on this is ridiculous who the hell would spend $17 dollars on a sheet mask. I don’t find the SK-II products to do anything for my skin but when I want to feel Extra as hell I’ll use this.
Full Size: 50 ml
Full Size Cost: $85
Sample Size: 1.5 ml
Value: $2.55
I love this I have it in a full size and always to happy to have a mini to travel with. To me this scent is really light and good for summer but I don’t really know how to describe the scent at all. The scent description is watermelon which I can see and the jasmine and techno woods. What the hell is a techno wood and what does that smell like?
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil in Chaos
Full Size: 1.2 g
Full Size Cost: $22
Sample Size: 1.2 g
Value: $22
This is my favorite eyeliners so thrilled to get a full size one in a color I don’t have. The only way I can describe this shade is University of Delaware blue it is the exact shade of the blue from Udel. Any way these are super smooth amd pigmented and last really well and I hate that they are $22 because that is ridiculous for eyeliner either way in love. And this is the second product we got that is more expensive then the bag and the 3rd full size item craziness. Swatched Below.
Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint in Rose
Full Size: 6 ml
Full Size Cost: $20
Sample Size: 1 ml
Value: $3.33
I swear every color I have of this all looks the same. The same neutral dusty rose color and this is the same despite them all having different shade names. I am not super into the shades these come in. The wear fine though they are comfortable. Swatched Below.
Tony Moly Mini Berry Lip Balm in Cherry
Full Size: 7.2 g
Full Size Cost: $5
Sample Size: 7.2 g
Value: $5
How adorable is this thing?! I mean totally impractical to carry around ant the little stem is like stretchy rubber so fun to play with but I foresee that ripping off really easily. This is a peachy pink tinted really nice feeling lip balm I hate tinted balms in pots I think it is messy and gross but this is too cute and tastes too good (cherries) to not use. Swatched Below.
This was another great month. 4 of the 6 items are full size from a bag that only promises samples like it can’t be better then that. This has really become my most favorite bag in terms of value you for price and use I get out of products and the excitement I have wondering what I’ll get each month. I really love this bag and the coupon makes for a nice ok let’s go to Macy’s and see what free thing I am going to get this month and there are always $5 options that I am happy to grab for free.
