Walmart Spring 2023 Beauty Box Subscription Box Review

Walmart Beauty Box

Cost: $6.98

Cycle: Every Quarter/Season

What is it: Every season Walmart sends a little sample products of all sorts of health and beauty type items. It used to be a free sample box with $5 shipping. But they have now changed it to a $6.98 box with free shipping with the promise of better and more full size items.


The size of products in this box was fantastic this season that is for sure.

Kiss Colors & Care Glamour Glitter Bonnet Cap

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $4.19

While I could probably benefit from a sleeping bonnet my hair is so fragile I would never be able to fall asleep with something on my head its a personal thing. Also Glitter Pink is not my vibe. But this is really cool and a really great item to get in a box like this.

Salon Perfect Mani To Go

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $6.74

They include press on nails often it feels like in these boxes which is probably super thrilling for people I don’t personally use them so I just pass them along.

Bolden Dark Spot Fix

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $19

I stopped using dark spot correctors and I really need to get back on it. This is amazing full size $19 that is triple the cost of the box in one item.

Covergirl Clean Fresh Yummy Gloss in 100 Let’s Get Fizzical

Full Size: 10 ml

Full Size Cost: $10.99

This is so cute. Its just a clear gloss but the packaging is so cute and it is huge.

Hask Argan Oil 5 in 1 Leave-In Spray

Full Size: 52 ml

Full Size Cost: $3

This is even a full travel size. I like this brand alot they have some really nice products and I do use leave in sprays so I will get use out of this I may even travel with it I don’t know.


What a really great value for this box. Half the items I will use Half I won’t but that is still a massive win. I really love this box.

What’s in My Trash? May 2023

I am finally caught up to where I should be for my goals for the year. Hurray. I also went on vacation this month so there are a lot of emptys that I just don’t have pictures of and stuff because I am not crazy enough to bring trash home or meticulously track it when I’m supposed to be having fun.

Skincare (7)

Lovinah Blue Butterfly Stem Cell Deep Hydration Mask this is nice it was hydrating my skin looked really nice after but it it far too expensive.

Repurchase: No

Babor Ampoule Concentrate Perfect Glow I don’t like these I think the packaging is wasteful excessive and a little dangerous having to snap these glass vials and the glass is sharp. This left me glowy but not so glow that I would spend $40+ a week to use this every day.

Repurchase: No

Farmacy Bright On Vitamin C Mask I didn’t really care for this it was super sticky and hard to wash off but it did brighten my skin temporarily.

Repurchase: No

FCS Midnight Rose Charcoal Mask I don’t particularly like charcoal masks any more I find them pretty harsh and really annoying to wash off.

Repurchase: No

Vichy H.A. Serum this was just a hylaronic serum nothing really that special it was nice.

Repurchase: No, I would buy the cheaper one from the Ordinary

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops I really like these not as much as I like other Glow Recipe products but it is nice. It feels really nice and dewy and light on my skin. I don’t feel like it has enough  actives to justify the price for me though.

Repurchase: No

Philosophy Nature in a Jar Cica Complex Recovery Moisturizer this is too thick for me not the kind of moisturizer I like but if you have really damaged or irritated skin I think this would be really nice it is thicker more balm like.

Repurchase: No

Random (1)

Klean Freak Body Wipe in Lavender I love having body wipes on hand for when you just need a quick something to feel refreshed but can’t exactly jump in the shower. I really liked this one it was big it didn’t rip it also didn’t leave me sticky like a lot of wipes can and it smelled really nice.

Repurchase: Yes

Home Scents (2)

Bath and Body Works Candle in Toasted Pineapple Marshmallow this had no scent throw I was super disappointed.

Repurchase: No

FCS Scent Diffuser in Flying Monkeys this was a really good scent but it just is messy to use I am currently using these in place of wallfowers and hanging them up you have to flip these over and soak the wooden cap. It works but it is a mess.

Repurchase: No

Lip (3)

Hempz Ultra Moisturizing Herbal Lip Balm I hated this hated the flavor and this wasn’t really moisturizing it was more like Aquaphor but didn’t hang around.

Repurchase: No

Dionis Goat Milk Lip Balm in Milk & Honey I like these they last a long time they are more of that thicker traditional balm feeling so they stick around for awhile in on my lips the flavors are good. They don’t melt super easy in my car.

Repurchase: Yes

Carmex Lip Balm I love carmex I love the feeling of it and the menthol flavor.

Repurchase: Yes

Makeup (1)

Benefit The Porefessional Super Setter this was a really good setting spray for setting makeup it does help it last.

Repurchase: Maybe

Lotion (1)

Vitabath Body Cream in Pomegranate Bellini Blush this was fine smelled nice was very thin.

Repurchase: No

Bodycare (3)

Vacation Classic Spray SPF 50 Sunscreen I like the way this sunscreen smells and I though I liked it. I’ve used up a whole can before but using it every day on a cruise I found it really sticky as io was reapplying and took forever to dry and got kinda weird touching my close and just really messy will not re buy. I have one more like mostly full can to go through and then no more.

Repurchase: No

Ulta Luxurious Cleansing Body Wash in Verbena + Lemon Grass this I hated the scentl was just not that great I didn’t feel that clean after.

Repurchase: No

Moroccan Oil Night Body Serum this isn’t pictured because I dropped it and it shattered I really hate oils being packaged in glass so unsafe for me. This was a nice enough serum it was smooth and hydrating felt nice really enjoyed it.

Repurchase: Maybe

Perfume (7)

FCS Perfume Oil in Way Fetch this was nice I didn’t enjoy the shimmer though. I am trying to work through my perfumes rollerballs I have so many.

Repurchase: No

YSL Black Opium Perfume not a huge fan of this scent it is very strong.

Repurchase: No

Dolce & Gabanna Light Blue Perfume this was not move for me too girly.

Repurchase: No

Rebecca Minkoff Blush Perfume this smelled so old I did not like it at all.

Repurchase: No

Haircare (1)

Macy’s Beauty Box

Cost: $15

Cycle: Every Month

What is it: Every month you will get a bag, a $5 off coupon with a purchase amount which I hate (SUCH A DOWNGRADE), 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.


This is box was a Sunday Riley takeover. I really like the take over boxes and getting to use a whole line of products. I wished this had the C.E.O. Oil that is one of my favorite Sunday Riley products all the oils are really. .But I really love the C.E.O Line in general.

C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Vitamin C Cream

Full Size: 50 g

Full Size Cost: $65

Sample Size: 8 g

Value: $10.40

I like this cream it has a really nice comforting orangey scent and I love this line I’m excited to get to use more then just a one time use sample.

Sunday Riley Auto Correct Brightening and Depuffing Eye Contour Cream

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $65

Sample Size: 3 ml

Value: $13

I have never tried this one I don’t usually like dark circle correcting eye creams the tone never works with my skin tone but I’m game to give it a go.

Sunday Riley A+ High-Dose Retinoid Serum

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $122

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $12.20

This is a good retinoid and pretty strong for a retinoid verse a retinol.

C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $122

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $12.20

I like this serum I love things with Vitamin C not as much as the oil but if you don’t like oils this would be the next best thing for brightening.

Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $122

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $12.20

This is not my favorite lactic acid treatment out there and it is expensive for what it is. I have one or two little bottles to use but this one I will pass along.

Sunday Riley Eye Contour Tool

Full Size: 2 piece set

Full Size Cost: $7.99

Sample Size: 1 piece

Value: $4

I don’t care for this style of facial tool/eye cream applicator I feel like I am going to poke myself in the eye with it but it is really heavy and pretty, alot nice quality then alot of the other bonus items we get.
