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.


Walmart always killing it with these boxes. 70 cents an item the costs breaks down to here which is just wild. and not for nothing the boxes themselves make great gift boxes lol.

CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser

Full Size: 473 ml

Full Size Cost: $15.48

Sample Size: 29 ml

Total Value: $0.95

I don’t really get along with CeraVe products so I will pass this along. But I can not emphasize how tiny and cute this little bottle is it looks like a mini brand.

Kiss Gel Fantasy Press on Nails in kgfs01

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $8.49

It can be pretty hard to find specific nail sets online because they change out so often the listings don’t keep up. I don’t like these but this is a really cool thing to get in a box like this.

I love leave in sprays and I have always had really good experiences with this brand and it is a really nice size for travel. Very happy.

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hydrating Cleansing Gel

Covergirl Clean Fresh Skincare Color Correcting Primers

It is nice that they give you all the shades of this to try and see which one you might like best. I’m not crazy interested in these but I might give them a go haven’t decided.


This is actual a pretty low value for a Walmart Box. The sizes and variety were really good and we didn’t get a bunch of repeats which had started to happen so still pretty happy with it.

What’s in My Trash? March 2023

Better month I feel like I caught up alot I’m only behind $55ish dollars on my goal which is better then I was doing last month. Also I feel like alot less stuff came into my hoard this month which is also great.

Skincare (4)

Beauty Bio The Zen Bubble Gel Cream this was nice I liked it I like gel moisturizers but I would not spend $65 on this it is just too much.

Repurchase: No

Purlisse Blue Lotus 4-in-1 Cleansing Milk this I did not like I really don’t care for creamy face washes.

Repurchase: No

Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Lavender this is fine I like face sprays and these are cheap enough.

Repurchase: Yes

Lush Tea Tree Water Toner this is a long time favorite that I have used for years it is really great for for when my skin is breaking out it is really really great for body break outs.

Repurchase: Yes

Random (1)

This Works Stress Check Mood Manager I used this in my car as an air fresher it was fine. It did not destress me.

Repurchase: No

Home Scents (6)

Trix Tin Candle, I don’t like these tin candles you can’t see the flame and they don’t have a good Scent throw.

Repurchase: No

Trix Candle this has no scent throw the same story as all the other candles from this line just trying to get through them at this point.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Gingerbread Marshmallow this was nothing special I am on my last wallflower and I have no intentions of buying more in the future. Sometimes I get them for free in which case I will use them but I won’t be buying them anymore.

Repurchase:

Lucky Charms Milk Bottle Candle same as above. Also this was really hard to light at the bottom because of the shape of the glass I ended up using it on the wax warmer.

Repurchase: No

Petrichor Ink Refreshing Body Mist in Mami Wata this is technically a body mist but I use a lot of body mists as just room sprays because they don’t last long enough on the skin. This was fine it lasted me for a really long time.

Repurchase: No

Unplugged Book Box Candle in Rush I really liked this the jar is adorable it fits well on my book shelf tiny candle though burns through really really fast.

Repurchase: No

Lip (2)

Dionis Goat Milk Lip Balm in Sweet Berry this was fine I like that they don’t get melty in the car.

Repurchase: Yes

Fresh Sugar Advanced Therapy Lip Treatment a realy favorite lip balm of mine I just go through them so fast for how pricey they are.

Repurchase: Yes

Makeup (1)

Ciate Wonder Wand Mascara this was very dry and not very impressive.

Repurchase: No

Bodycare (1)

FCS Perfume Oil in Billie Jean this was really nice super sweet smelling I really liked it.

Repurchase: Maybe these are usually pretty limited edition

Haircare (3)

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Zero Conditioner I have been using this little thing of shampoo and conditioner to try and fade dye out of my hair this conditioner is fine it isn’t anything that special I don’t think it made my hair less frizzy.

Repurchase: No

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Zero Shampoo this isb’t something I would normally use it made my hair dry and I was just using it to try and get as much color out of my hair as I could.

Repurchase: No

FCS Deep Conditioner in Hellraisin Bran I love these they are so creamy and moisturizing and this smells so good.

Repurchase: Yes

Declutter (3)

Laura Mercier Velour Extreme Matte Lipstick in Fresh didn’t care for this color.

Mac Satin Lipstick in Viva Glam II didn’t care for this color it is way to light for me.

Laura Mercier The Perfect Cream Multi-Tasking Moisturizer this was kinda sticky and so overly scented I just cannot.


Good showing this month I caught up alot and just need to keep pushing through. Also only one category of all my categories went up which is amazing I do want an over all decrease so that is fantastic.

Macy’s Beauty Box March 2023

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.


Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel

Full Size: 7.85 ml

Full Size Cost: $22

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $4.20

I don’t use brow gel but this is so tiny and cute!

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso

Full Size: 3 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Sample Size: 1.5 ml

Value: $12

These are some of my favorite liquid lipsticks the formula and colors are so great. They are long wearing I really love them.

Korres Foaming Cream Cleanser

Full Size: 150 ml

Full Size Cost: $28

Sample Size: 20 ml

Value: $3.73

I feel like I have tried this and hated it but I can’t remember so I guess I will try it again.

Laura Geller Prep Stick Lip Scrub

Full Size: 4.5 g

Full Size Cost: $21

Well this is full size which is nice and it smells fruity but it it isn’t super scrubby looking or feeling when I rubbed it on my hand so I don’t have high hopes that this will be that good.

Rachel Zoe Fearless Perfume

This came totally empty and customer service is such a pain with Macy’s that I don’t want to fight over a $2 perfume sample.

Nudestix Magnetic Luminous Eye Color in Nudity

Full Size: 3 g (plus mirrored case and sharpener)

Full Size Cost: $27

Sample Size: 2.5 g

Value: $20

I have a few of these and they are really great I just don’t use shadow sticks enough to justify opening and keeping this knowing it is in a brown shade similar to ones I already have open. But they are really great quality and this is almost full size.

You Are Amazing Post-it Notes

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $3

This is random but useful. It is totally something you could get at the dollar store but it feels pretty high quality so I will give it more value then that sometimes these random things they include are so so cheap feeling. It is cute it isn’t my taste.


This was a really good box like im not even mad about them empty perfume. I will say their shipping is all over the place the February box came on March 1st and this came 14 days later like what why.
