Walmart Winter 2024 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.


This really feels like a holiday present box like I was so happy when I opened it even though alot of the items are not for me.

Batiste Touch Activated Dry Shampoo

Full Size: 108 g

Full Size Cost: $12.49

Sample Size: 30 g

Total Value: $3.47

Dry Shampoo is something I usually don’t have a lot of back stock of I have tried 2 different Batiste dry shampoos and didn’t like either of them but this one is totally different so I will give it a try.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Cream

Full Size: 425 g

Full Size Cost: $14.99

Sample Size: 22 g

Total Value: $0.78

Very basic lotion but a good thing for the winter for sure.

Palmer’s Shimmer Radiance Body Oil

Full Size: 150 ml

Full Size Cost: $13.99

Sample Size: 10 ml

Total Value: $0.93

I do not want a glitter oil but this is enough to do your legs for sure.

elf Suntouchable! Invisible Sunscreen

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $14.00

I have tried this before and I didn’t like it. It is supposed to be a dupe for the Super Goop sunscreen but this is a little too oily for me compared to that one.

Plum Beauty Contouring Facial Roller

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $13.37

I find this kind of facial roller to be really pinchy on my skin and I don’t like this so I will pass this along this is really heavy though its a metal roller.


We got two full size products which is always nice in this box.

What’s In My Trash? October 2024

Well its been a month. I can’t even get into it everything about this year has sucked I have no energy but I used up a ton of shit this month so lets go.

Aceology Probiotic Restoring Biodegradable Mask this was ok. It felt good but the eye holes were too small. I don’t think this did anything unique for the price but I liked it.

Repurchase: No

Kiehl’s Super Multi-Corrective Soft Cream I really liked this it was really soft. It was not super hydrating though.

Repurchase: Maybe

Rael Beauty Miracle Patch these weren’t that great they didn’t suck up much or speed up healing.

Repurchase: No

Olay Cleansing Melts I didn’t like this they were clumpy and stick and didn’t wash off well.

Repurchase: No

Banilla Clean It Zero Ceramide Cleansing Balm this didn’t sting my eyes which is cool but it wouldn’t take off really stubborn makeup.

Repurchase: No

Good Molecules Lightweight Daily Moisturizer this was fine it was nice enough.

Repurchase: Maybe

Clarins Double Serum I never like this I had it I used it that’s all.

Repurchase: No

It Cosmetics Confidence in Your Beauty Sleep Serum this was awful it was such a gross sticky texture.

Repurchase: No

Beauty Stat Universal C Skin Refiner this was fine I like it. I prefer a more serumy vitamin c and this is more like a moisturizer.

Repurchase: Maybe

Strivectin SD Advanced Intensive Concentrate for Wrinkles & Strech Marks this is fine its not that impressive or my favorite for the price I would buy something else.

Repurchase: No

Sonage Luster Eye Crème this was fine a little thick not my thing but once I use up my current eye cream I officially have no eye creams left and I can buy one of my choosing and that is just so amazing to me.

Repurchase: Yes

Sunday Riley B3 Nice 10% Niacinamide Serum I normally love a niacinamide serum but this was highly disappointing it was thick and didn’t really do anything.

Repurchase: No

Caudalie Grape Water this just felt like water for double the price of the other sprays I would use.

Repurchase: No

Sunday Riley Luna Sleeping Night Oil I really hated this I hated the texture it did not play well with the rest of my skincare it was sticky. I also really don’t like that they dye it blue it leaves your skin looking blue which is weird. I think it worked but other retinols work just as well and feel way better.

Repurchase: No

Cowboy and Cricket Wax Melt in Muad’dib so at first I didn’t like the scent of this but the more I used it the more it grew on me and its really ended up filling the room and smelling pretty comforting.

Repurchase: Maybe

Trader Joe’s Candle in Orange and Spice not the best scent throw but a great scent so fun and fall festive.

Repurchase: Yes

Bath and Body Works Fine Fragrance Mist in Orange Vanilla Twist I used this as a room spray it was fine.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Book Loft this was awful it had no scent throw what so ever.

Repurchase: No

Dio Candle in Video Store I really hate when I don’t like something from a small business but this just didn’t impress me that much it was small it burned through pretty quick they smell was weird which I figured it would be going into picking it but I just wasn’t impressed with the size, burn time or throw of this candle for the price if it had be 2/3rds of the price I would have been more impressed.

Repurchase: No

Colourpop Mascara in Left on Red I love these mascaras and the colors show up great they do dry out really quick though.

Cowshed Cow Slip Soothing Hand Cream this was very basic but the size was super convenient.

Repurchase: No

Soft Services Speed Soak this was one use of basically an unscented lotion nothing special.

Repurchase: No

Dionis Skin Smoothing Goat Milk Body Lotion I liked that this had retinol in it but it really wasn’t that impressive.

Repurchase: No

Tree Hut Shave Oil in Candy Cane always my favorite.

Repurchase: No

Amika Mirrorball Conditioner this was ok but not great.

Repurchase: No

First Aid Beauty Bump Eraser Body Scrub since I don’t really struggle with KP I gave this away to someone who wanted to try it.

Ren Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic some one wanted to try this so I just let them have I don’t use tonics often so it will get more love from someone else.

Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment in Cocoa Crème I just didn’t like this too thick too sticky I am going to give this to my mom she’ll enjoy it.

Shiseido Bio-Performance Super Corrective Eye Cream (2x) I just don’t like this eye cream it does nothing and I don’t want to use up two more tubes of it.

Macy’s Beauty Box October 2024

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.


Well i just was busy and had some hard times and just didn’t feel like reviewing Macy’s for awhile, but I am back with it now.

Oil Absorbing Stone Roller

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $8.00

I didn’t think this would work but it totally did. What I didn’t love is it sorta left and orange powder on my face which I was not expecting at all. It was fine I was able to pat it out pretty easily but that was weird. It was also really easy to take apart to wash.

Nudestix Nudies Matte All Over Face Blush Color in Cherie

Full Size: 7 g

Full Size Cost: $35

Sample Size: 1.8 g

Value: $9

I don’t love the formula of this it goes on well and blends well but it is not long wearing. I have this in a different shade but i like this shade a lot more and it is alot more fall friendly.

Anastasia Brow Definer in Soft Brown

Full Size: 0.2 g

Full Size Cost: $26

Sample Size: 0.1 g

Value: $13

I don’t really use pencils like this i do my eyebrows rarely so I will pass this on also this color is too light for me.

Peter Thomas Roth Instant Firm No Filter Primer

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $42

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $7

This I am excited to try because I know the firming eye cream works. I am worried this won’t feel great on the skin though because the eye thing is really tacky and tight and heavy.

Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser

Full Size: 115 ml

Full Size Cost: $39

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $1.70

I don’t really like Clarins but this will get used.

Beauty Stat Universal C Skin Refiner

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $85

Sample Size: 5 ml

Value: $14.17

I have definitely received this before and I think used it but really can’t remember at all. Also why is it so pricey.


Not the best box for sure.
