Macy’s Beauty Box

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 (beauty ships free at Macy’s) 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 month is really interesting from Macy’s instead of a makeup bag we got a brush roll (of questionable quality). And the gel squishy for pads for your high heels.

This brush roll is really small the seeming isn’t great because you can see it on the other side where it should be shiny and smooth.

Chloe Nomade Perfume

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $132

Sample Size: 1.2 ml

Value: $5.28

This is a floral mixed with moss and plum and it works for me but I wouldn’t ever buy a full size since there are pricey perfumes I like so much more then this but I am happy to use it up.

Fancy Feet By Foot Petals Ball of Foot Gel Cushions

Full Size: 1 pair

Full Size Cost: $4.98

Sample Size: 1 pair

Value: $4.98

I am really loving this weird addition of a non beauty item it is just fun to be like ooh what weird thing am I going to get next. These are the kinda thing you always need when you don’t have them around and are running late to some party and you heels are killing you so this is a great thing to just have around.

Elizabeth Arden Retinol Ceramide Capsules

Full Size: 30 capsules

Full Size Cost: $48

Sample Size: 7 capsules

Value: $11.20

I don’t know what the benefit to having your retinol in little capsules is but ok. I want to start using retinol but it is also summer and it makes you more sun sensitive so I am probably going to hold off until fall.

Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow Vitamin C + Tumeric Face Oil

Full Size: 35 ml

Full Size Cost: $80

Sample Size: 3 ml

Value: $6.86

I thought this used to exist with out the new hot ingredient of turmeric am I crazy? Like all Sunday Riley oils this is very thick but it does feel really ice on the ski it absorbed well after a few minutes and didn’t make me feel greasy or sticky. I like this alot but I am sure there are cheaper vitamin c oils that work well too.

Kiehl’s Tumeric & Cranberry Seed Energizing Radiance Masque

Full Size: 100 ml

Full Size Cost: $42

I am super excited to try this it smells so fresh and good and fruity and it looks like deviled eggs inside lol.

Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Eye Cream

Full Size: 0.5 oz

Full Size Cost: $67

Sample Size: 0.2 oz

Value: $26.80

This was supposed to be like a tiny tube of sunscreen. I much prefer this expensive eye cream. I like the Genifique line it feels nice and feels like it is working but it is hella pricey so I wouldn’t buy it. I am happy to have this eye cream this is enough for like 2 months at least if not more.

Ahava DeadSea Water Mineral Body Lotion

Full Size: 200 ml

Full Size Cost: $29

Sample Size: 40 ml

Value: $5.80

This lotion tricked me and I am angry. I thought this would smell like all their other lotions i have tried in the blue tubes you know light and slightly oceany and lovely. BUT NO this smells like strong as heavy floral grandma instant headache death. it is horrible. It also has a lighter texture then the other lotions which is fine but this was so bad I had to wash my hands to get the scent off.

I was happy with this month’s box there is almost a whole really pricey nighttime skincare routine in there which is always nice to get stuff you feel like you can use together. The lotion can go fuck itself for tricking me
