Cost: $10.00 monthly + tax
Cycle: Every Month
What is it: Every month our favorite money sucking store Sephora sends out a curated box of higher end samples to try out. Every month you receive 5 samples and a perfume sample. The boxes are customized with a few different variations being sent out each month.
There is a small survey that Sephora has you take that helps Sephora curate a box to your needs. There is also a card included in the box for a complimentary mini makeover (which are complimentary any way so I don’t really get that) and 50 extra points if you purchase something in store.
I really like the art deco Great Gatsby style of the bag. But the satin feels cheap this month usually it feels very soft and nice this month not so much.
Drybar Triple Sec
Full Size: 118 g
Full Size Cost: $26
Sample Size: 10 g
Value: $2.20
I love Drybar products they smell so so good and my hair just loves them. I have a few little cans of this and it really does add texture to my hair when it is being limp and blah. Bonus makes you’re hair smell and look clean a little like dry shampoo would.
Make Up For Ever Artist Rouge Cream in C207
Full Size: 3.5 g
Full Size Cost: $22
Sample Size: 1.4 g
Value: $8.80
Why do I keep getting pink lipsticks? Anyway if you like bold cream lipsticks this is for you the formula is creamy and opaque and applies with no patchiness at all but it is Barbie pink and bright. Swatched Below.
Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Stick in Au Natural
Full Size: 1.64 g
Full Size Cost: $29
Sample Size: 1 g
Value: $17.68
I love the caviar sticks they are so quick and easy when you just want one color so you don’t look dead on the way out the door lol. This is a nude color very similar to my skin tone. Being slightly tacky I think it will make a good base for eye shadow. Swatched Below.
Clinique Pretty Easy Liquid Eyelining Pen in Black
Full Size: 0.07 oz
Full Size Cost: $21
Sample Size: 0.01 oz
Value: $3
This was pretty terrible. It isn’t super black and and it smudges and fades immediately I do not recommend this at all. Swatched Below.
Caudalíe Vine[activ] Energizing and Smoothing Eye Cream
Full Size: 15 ml
Full Size Cost: $39
Sample Size: 5 ml
Value: $13
I love little eye creams they last forever and then I never have to buy them. I never see a huge difference between eye creams though only small differences. Caudalíe is such an expensive brand that it is cool to get to try it.
Stella Perfume
Full Size: 50 ml
Full Size Cost: $72
Sample Size: 1.5 ml
Value: $2.16
I don’t do roses so this is a no go for me I passed this off to my mom and she enjoyed it pretty good. So it has the mom stamp of approval.
This month was a little thrown together for me but overall I am happy I got an eyeshadow, eye serum and hair product that I love and then 3 things that don’t work for me I just wish it had been a little more adventurous and interesting.
