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.
Makeup and skincare this month that is what I expect from Sephora.
The bag this month I find really creepy. It reminds me of like a retro doll you’d see in an antique shop and I just kind it creepy.
First Aid Beauty Ginger & Turmeric Vitamin C Jelly Mask
Full Size: 4 oz
Full Size Cost: $32
Sample Size: 0.75 oz
Value: $6
This was a really interesting mask like it so completely sunk into my skin that I really didn’t need to wash it off. It definitely smells like ginger and turmeric which isn’t my preference for scents that is for sure. It didn’t really do that much it was slightly brightening but really nothing to write home about.
Peter Thomas Roth Firmx Peeling Gel
Full Size: 100 ml
Full Size Cost: $28.49
Sample Size: 15 ml
Value: $4.27
Another nice skincare item I always want to try more Peter Thomas Roth products but they are so pricey. This is one of those ones that is supposed to ball off your dead skin cells. I think it worked better then others of this type I have tried. my skin did look and feel a little smoother but not as much as I would expect I wanted it to do more.
Sephora Gel Gloss in 04 Perfect Nude
Full Size: 0.11 oz
Full Size Cost: $12
Sample Size: 0.1 oz
Value: $10.91
Why is there no picture of this I have no idea. Sorry. I also am not swatching this it is totally sealed and I don’t use gloss so why spoil it for the person I’ll pass this on to. But this product really pisses me off because I got it in fucking November same shade too. And 2 Novembers ago I got it in pink so like what the fuck really send something else.
Tory Burch Love Relentlessly Perfume
Full Size: 100 ml
Full Size Cost: $118
Sample Size: 1.5 ml

I love this perfume maybe I’ll have to buy it one day. It is super girly not feminine i know that is an odd description but its how I feel.
Lancôme Drama Liqui-Pencil in Côte D’Azur
Full Size: 1.2 g
Full Size Cost: $23
Sample Size: 0.5 g
Value: $9.58
I love that we got a liner that isn’t black this brighter blue is so fun. I have wanted to try these eyeliners they seem really cool. This went on very smooth and didn’t smudge which I like. I was expecting more impact then the color provide but I am not dissatisfied. Swatched Below.
Make Up For Ever Artist Rouge Lipstick in M500
Full Size: 3.5 g
Full Size Cost: $22
Sample Size: 1.4 g
Value: $8.80
This is a nice deep wine red color. It is a matte but not a super matte almost like a satin matte. I realy like it this is right up my color alley so I’ll finally get some use of out a Make Up For Ever product that I got sent. Swatched Below.
I like that there was a good mix of skincare and makeup. I really liked the new skincare that I get to try so I’m satisfied with this month. I am really annoyed about the repeat lip product that seems really lazy and cost cutting on Sephora’s part and I do not find that acceptable.
