Cost: $15
Cycle: Every Month
What is it: So Macy’s has hopped on the subscription box bandwagon and this is their first box. Every month you will get a bag, a $5 off coupon, 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 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 (beauty ships free at Macy’s) also Macy’s does have sales and $5 dollar 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 that is still basically free.
This was actually a good month too bad I’m allergic to alot of what was included this month and I can’t use alot of it.
Schmidt’s Rose + Vanilla Natural Deodorant
Full Size: 75 g
Full Size Cost: $4.99
Sample Size: 19.8 g
Value: $1.32
So I can’t use this because of the roses but I have used Schmidt’s before and they are a decent natural deodorant brand. You can also always pick them up pretty cheap at like Marshalls and TJ Maxx type places. You can also get these little travel size ones to test them out there for a dollar or two.
Origins Ginzing Refreshing Eye Cream
Full Size: 15 ml
Full Size Cost: $31
Sample Size: 5 ml
Value: $10.33
I like the packaging on the sample better then the full size. I rather have a squeezey tube then a jar. I like Orgins products so pretty happy about this one.
Coola Mineral BB Cream
Full Size: 50 ml
Full Size Cost: $36
Sample Size: 5 ml
Value: $3.60
So this isn’t really a BB Cream this is just a tinted sunscreen. I have heard a mixed reviews on Coola products so I don’t know when or if I will get around to this. I don’t do well with sunscreen so I don’t know.
Korres Wild Rose Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial
Full Size: 40 ml
Full Size Cost: $48
Sample Size: 20 ml
Value: $24
Another product I can’t use due to roses. I will have to pass this on, but I like the idea of a brightening sleeping mask.
Tony Moly Skin Purifying I’m Real Sheet Mask
Full Size: 1 mask
Full Size Cost: $3.00
Sample Size: 1 mask
Value: $3.00
I love Tony Moly Masks They always feel like they are actually working something alot of sheet masks lack. You can find these cheaper and on sale sometimes.
Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue
Full Size: 1.18 oz
Full Size Cost: $30
Sample Size: 4 shades
Value: $?
Instead of a perfume this month we have gotten a little foundation sampler. I actually appreciate these because I like to know if I like the formula of a foundation before I buy it because I am really picky with foundation. I don’t really know how to value this one since most of it won’t work for any one person.
This might be my favorite Macy’s month so far despite the fact that I can’t use 2 of the products in the bag.
