This box was super exciting for me! It came with a lot of fun goodies and things I really enjoy using. Here’s what I got this time: PUR-LISSE Blue Lotos Essential Daily Moisturizer SPF 30 – Retails $55 Calm skin, hydrate, and improve texture with White tea, Soy Proteins and Algae Extracts! We love this full-spectrum SPF because it`s safe for the most sensitive complexions and the lightweight formula (without the `white tint` of sunscreen!) makes it perfect under makeup, too. BE A BOMBSHELL Smooth Criminal HD Finishing Powder – Retail $7 ? Ideal for all skin types, this translucent powder can be used to set foundation for longer wear, mattify skin, and even out complexion. We die for the velvety texture -- perfect for touch-ups without any added weight or color! SIMPLE SKINCARE Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes – Retail $5.99  Hands down, one of our favorites! These wipes are softer than silk and merciless on makeup, leaving skin feeling clean and instantly hydrated. Indulge in all the hottest beauty trends - Simple will help you make up for all of that makeup. HAPPY BRANDS Happy Hair Turban – Retail $18 ? Twist, loop, and try your hair in a snap! This handy turban dries your mane quickly while being gentle on hair follicles, reducing frizz and breakage. We`re big fans of using it to keep our tresses out of our faces when applying post-shower skincare and makeup, too! GO SMILE Teeth Whitening Gel – Retail $29 Makeup trends may change daily, but a bright smile is timeless. We adore this gel because it doesn`t add any extra time to your routine! Just apply equal amounts of your fave toothpaste and gel to a dry toothbrush and brush for two minutes, twice a day.

This particular box wasn`t one of my favorites. While I did find a couple things I enjoyed, this box simply didn`t have many products I would normally use. With that that said, though, this was still a great box. I fell in love with the finishing powder and the hair turban. I never used a hair turban before now so that was a unique experience for me. Obviously, I love Beauty Box or I wouldn’t keep working with them, but the big question is “ is this box worth the $12 monthly fee?” I bring this up every review and will continue to do so because I want everyone to see what they are getting when they pay for a Beauty Box membership. Well if I bought all of these at full sizes from the store I would have paid at least a total of $114.99 +tax. Basing of the sizes and estimating their value by their ounce sizes, the samples in the box I received are worth at least $25 +tax for this particular box. This month was a great month and great value for me. Some months you get more than others and some months I don’t enjoy as much, but it’s always above the $12 value of the membership so you will always be coming out on top in my personal experience it. If you love monthly subscription boxes as well as trying new products, you definitely want to give Beauty Box a try! I almost always love all or 99% of what I get in my boxes!
