Macy’s Beauty Box

Cost: $15

Cycle: Every Month

What is it: So Macy’s has hopped on the subscription box bandwagon and this is their first box. 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 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 dollar 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 that is still basically free.

We got a huge full size Rituals Body wash in this bag which is worth the whole cost of the bag I took a picture of it but it seems to have disappeared and I already gave the body wash away so there is not picture for that sorry. But we’ll still talk about it don’t worry.

This month we got one of those sequin bags that you can pet and draw on that are very soothing.

Rituals The Ritual of Sakura Zensational Foaming Shower Gel

Full Size: 6.7 oz

Full Size Cost: $15

Sample Size: 6.7 oz

Value: $15

This comes out like a gel and then turns into a foam kinda like shaving cream. This one was in the cherry blossom scent which I am not a fan of much to floral for me but a really nice thing to get in a box.

Borghese Radiante Revitalize and Firm Mask

Full Size: 1.7 oz

Full Size Cost: $50

Sample Size: 0.5 oz

Value: $14.71

This is fancy af skincare. it has that fancy floral expensive scent as it is gold. So I shall see how it goes. I am not super into the idea of putting heavy metal on my skin I can’t see how that would be good for it.

Sunday Riley Tidal Brightening Enzyme Water Cream

Full Size: 15 g

Full Size Cost: $22

Sample Size: 8 g

Value: $11.73

I have so many of these and still haven’t gotten around to trying them I probably have a full giant size 50 ml tub of this at this point with all the samples I have of this. SMH ok goal try this in 2019 finally.

Mac In Extreme Dimension Lash Mascara

Full Size: 13 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 2 g?

Value: $3.69

I don’t really like Mac mascaras anymore so this will be passed along. They always feel really stiff and dry and not a great look for my lashes. I have like one or two more Mac mascaras I need to get through and then no more.

Carolina Herrera Good Girl Legere Perfume

Full Size: 79 ml

Full Size Cost: $117

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $2.22

I don’t like the Good Girl Perfumes they just aren’t a scent I prefer.

Smashbox Always On Metallic Matte Liquid Lip in Maneater

Full Size: 4 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 1 ml?

Value: $6

This is such a beautiful red I love it. I love the formula on these as well they are so light on the lips but opaque and pretty I love them.

This box had alot of stuff that I was happy to give away and its Christmas time so all for the spirit of giving. I love the lipstick though even if they sent two red lipsticks in a row I love both of them.

So Macy’s trend of killing it one month and sicking the next continues. So we are on a sucky month this time.

Look how tiny all these samples are that bag is barely the size of a pencil case and its sewn together kinda of so its crooked its just odd.

Calvin Klein Women Perfume

Full Size: 1.7 oz

Full Size Cost: $84

Sample Size: 0.04 oz

Value: $1.98

There is no picture of this and I already gave away the sample. Sorry it happens. This had an overly feminine not floral but just womanly type scent I wasn’t into it.

Calvin Klein Eternity for Men

Full Size: 1 oz

Full Size Cost: $23.80

Sample Size: 0.04 oz

Value: $0.95

This is very woody and green smelling it smells nice for a men’s cologne.

Girlactik Precise Eyeliner Marker

Full Size: 1.2 ml

Full Size Cost: $20

Sample Size: 1.2 ml

Value: $20

I didn’t think this was full size but apparently it is I don’t like this that much it is really black but it bleeds alot and that is a big eyeliner no no for me.

Philosophy Purity Hydra-Bounce Eye gel

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 3 ml

Value: $4.80

I love trying out new eye creams but I don’t love Philosophy skincare so I’ll give it a try. This is also such a tiny sample.

Bare Minerals Prime Time Eyelid Primer

Full Size: 3 ml

Full Size Cost: $18

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $9

Please don’t buy this. There is nothing wrong with it it is a perfectly fine eye primer but you should never for any reason need to spend $18 on 3 ml of eye primer you can get so much more for the same price or less. I am just like stunned by the size and price of this primer.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $62

Sample Size: 3 ml

Value: $12.40

I think this is the same as something else we got just in new better packaging I am very confused by this.

Lancome Monsieur Big Waterproof Mascara

Full Size: 10 ml

Full Size Cost: $25

Sample Size: 2 ml

Value: $5

This mascara isn’t bad it is very heavy on your eyelashes though. I also don’t use waterproof mascara ever so I am going to pass this on. This is half the size of even a travel mascara like really.

I can’t believe the eye primer is actually half the full size that makes the full size kind of a rip off in my opinion this is just alot of really tiny samples. And two eye creams.  So if trends continue next month should be good.
