Beauteque BB Bag
Cost: $24 monthly
Cycle: Every Month
What is it: A Korean beauty subscription service that sends beauty and skin care items monthly. Along with English instructions for products that do not have them. Each month you get a makeup bag and they promise all full size products. The claim the value is triple the cost of the box and that you will receive at least six products. They also have a sheet mask subscription called Mask Maven that sends only sheet masks every month.
So Beauteque provides a nice detailed information card, that also lists the price of each item. Later on you’ll see that I found these to be less then accurate.
They also included a code for 10% and the code is BBREFER10.
So lets jump on into this review its gona be a bumpy ride. Spoiler Alert I wasn’t that happy.
Premium Deoproce Strawberry Yogurt Massage Cream
Full Size: 300 g
Full Size Cost: $13.99
Sample Size: 300 g
Value: $13.99
So this is a huge tub with a ton of product unfortunately it is worth significantly less than the listed value. I also found it here for a shocking $4.22 rather than the $22 that Beauteque listed. The product smells really nice and I patch tested it left my skin with a decent amount of glow but it is a lot more moisturizing then I would like to put on my face. Also the last time I used a strawberry product on my face I broke out horribly with itchy red painful pimples it was very weird and I have shied away from Strawberry products since but I may give this a try since the patch test seems to have gone ok.
Tsaio Traveler’s Herb Diary Herbal Blend Body Care Kit
Full Size: 90 ml
Full Size Cost: $12.99
Sample Size: 90 ml
Value: $12.99
So this has super cute packaging and I love the convenience of a little travel set all in its own bag. This again was not worth the listed price and it is a little odd that it doesn’t come with conditioner. I was also really put off by the fact that each little bottle has the same spiel about making your skin look good including the shampoo feel like something got lost in translation.
VOV Lip Care Balm
Full Size: 10 g
Full Size Cost: $2.67
Sample Size: 10 g
Value: $2.67
This came with the cutest fruit basket design but it was just on the wrapper. This reminds me of something you would pick up at the dollar store and way under the listed value. It seems to have been either sold out or removed both from Beauteque and from Amazon. I do not like pot style lip product that I have to dip my fingers into I feel like they are just dirty and germy and do not prefer them. This balm is very moisturizing and has a really nice fruit/strawberry candy smell and a sheer pink tint that did not swatch well.
Yadah Claude Monet Hand Cream in Quai du Louvre
Full Size: 40 ml
Full Size Cost: $7.99
Sample Size: 40 ml
Value: $7.99
Very light hand cream and I do love the art packaging. I wish I had either received two different ones or a totally different product rather than having two of the exact same thing which seems like a waste of a space in the box. It is worth almost double the listed value which is nice considering the other products.
VOV Nail Polish in Orange
Full Size: Yes, amount unknown
Full Size Cost: $7.50
Value: $7.50
So I as anyone who reads this or knows me knows I HATE nail polish and never use it so I gave this away and forgot to take a picture oops, sorry. It was in a really hideous orange color, I also am not fond of the color orange. This was sent separately which I appreciate that way if it broke it would not ruin everything. I could not find this for sale anywhere so I will use the listed value it was definitely full size though.
Cuticle Cutter
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost: $7.50
Value: $3.99
These have a nice sturdy feeling to them and very sharp blades. There is even a little attachment to push back your cuticles which is a nice bonus. There is even a cover for the blades these are pretty great I have little use for them but I have no complaints about this product. They are currently on sale so I am going to use that price in my value calculation.
Box Total: $57.12
Listed Total: $65
I am not really happy with either the curation or the value of this box. I have yet to receive my December box and Beauteque is going to have to do a lot to impress me. I do not recommend this box as of right now.
