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. Lately we have been getting between 6 and 8 items per month you never really know how many things you are going to get.

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 seen in subscription boxes.

The cool thing about the coupon is that it is good in stores and online 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.

Welp this month was exciting for my gf since I ended up giving half the contents of this bag to her but that’s ok. I don’t mind not every month can be a win.

A skincare only bag this month pretty much. I’ll Start with the four items I am keeping and then do the four that I gave to my gf.

Ahava Deadsea Water Mineral Hand Cream in Sea-Kissed

Full Size: 100 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 40 ml

Value: $9.60

I love this hand lotion it feels really nice it is thick but some how also light. It also smells really beachy and oceany which just makes me super happy. I love this, not the other scent this comes in that one I hate.

Jade Roller

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $13.99

I linked to a similar one Amazon because this is exclusive to the bag. I have wanted one of these but didn’t want to buy one and I am loving this. Like just the one or two minutes of rolling and massaging my face feels so so good.

Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $105

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $17.50

I really need to try this I have at least 2 or 3 of these now. I burned my skin with a lactic acid awhile back like burned it pretty bad and it took awhile to heal and have been afraid to retry lactic acid since but I really need to give it another try before giving up on it altogether.

Burberry Blossom Her Perfume

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $72

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $3.60

This is a light fruity floral that is very girly not my usual style of perfume but it is nice and definitely wearable enough to go in my travel perfume collection.

Versace Eros Flame Cologne

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $80

Sample Size: 1 ml

Value: $1.60

This is a really peppery cologne very nice I like it alot.

Clinique Moisture Surge 72-Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $12

Sample Size: 15 ml

Value: $12

I find this to be a meh moisturize it does fine but it doesn’t really impress me. I rather use a moisturizer I enjoy.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $62

Sample Size: 3 ml

Value: $12.40

I don’t think this is anything special especially for the high price. It feels nice but it doesn’t do anything. And I want my eye cream to be doing something if its costing an arm and a leg.

Caudalie Vinosource Serum S.O.S. Thirst Quenching Serum

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $49

Sample Size: 10 ml

Value: $16.33

Again a kinda whatever product it is a hydration serum but hardly feels different then a much cheaper ha serum so I don’t see the point in using it.

Who’s not ready for it to be 2020? Me!!! So Macy’s sent a really gross feeling glittery bag this month. Its that kind where you can feel the glitter and it is all hard and scratchy. I don’t like.

Makeup Drop Original Silicone Beauty Applicator in Glitz

Full Size: 1 Blender

Full Size Cost: $20

Sample Size: 1 Blender

Value: $20

This is one of those weird silicone gel blenders. I don’t like these I think they just smear makeup around rather then blending anything in. This one is cute with some glitter in side it. But I will be passing it on because this is just not a great way to apply makeup.

Paco Rabanne Invictus Legend Cologne

Full Size: 100 ml

Full Size Cost: $96

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $1.44

I love that they send men’s cologne and this is a nice smelling one. My gf really likes it and I like having little bits to share from boxes.

Carolina Herrera Good Girl Perfume

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $79.90

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $2.40

I don;t like this perfume I find it to be quite heavy and not my cup of tea.

Pur Highlighter in Afterglow

Full Size: 8 g

Full Size Cost: $26

Sample Size: 2.13 g

Value: $6.92

This is a really smooth gold highlighter with alot of shimmer in it. This is alot more intense than I would have expected from Pur which I usally think of as a pretty plain tame brand. Swatched below.

Grande Cosmetics Grande Lips Hydrating Lip Plumper Gloss in Midnight Shimmer

Full Size: 2.4 g

Full Size Cost: $27

Sample Size: 2.4 g

Value: $27

This color really photographs badly it looks pretty and rich and sparkely in person but the pictures make it look like a weird brown. This is not a sticky gloss which I appreciate but it is also not the kind of product I use but I plan to keep this because it is so different then anything else I have. The listed color was different than the one I received so I guess I got a substitution. This is also a pain in the ass because you have to click it up so many times. There is a definite tingle when I applied it but I don’t think it plumped. It was just shiny and thick. Swatched Below.

Girlactick 3-in-1 Lip Sparkle Balm in Twinkle

Full Size: 2.8 g

Full Size Cost: $17

Sample Size: 2.8 g

Value: $17

Always seems to me such a cheap brand gimicky brand and then every time I see the prices I am shocked at how expensive they are. This is such a weird product that seems more fitted for a kid then an adult. This is a glittery lip balm that is super glittery and frosty on the lips. It is comfortable and you can’t feel the glitter but it is just such a weird product I thought it was like an eye gloss at first. I don’t know really what to make of this. Swatched Below.

Elizabeth Arden Vitamin C Radiance Renewal Serum Capsules

Full Size: 30 Capsules

Full Size Cost: $48

Sample Size: 7 Capsules

Value: $11.20

I love this because I will be able to bring a vitamin c serum with me next time I travel. I use a vitamin c almost every night and if I miss it to many days I can see a difference in my skin but it never makes the cute in the skincare bag for travel because I have no travel size ones. I like the idea of these little capsules too because they wont spill.

Weird for Macy’s to send 2 glittery lip products but I applaud them on sending stuff that no one else is sending. High value with 3 full size products this month it is hard to be disappointed.
