The April 2016 Beauty Box 5 was curated with a nice mix of products that focused on skin care and cosmetics. They have an information card that describes each item and gives tips on its use, a lovely touch that I appreciate because I do need instructions sometimes!
Soapbox Sea Minerals Body Wash 2 oz sample size (Full size 20 oz $5.99)
This is a good smelling & feel good body wash made with a blend of aloe vera, shea butter and sea minerals. The company gives one bar of soap to someone in need for each bottle purchased. Their motto is “soap=hope” and you can go to their website to find out just where your purchase is going.
Global Beauty Care – Green Tea Makeup Remover Wipes package of 30 Full size ($1.99)
I use makeup cleansing wipes all the time so I was really pleased to see a full size package of these in the April box! This brand has green tea extract plus Vitamins A, C, & E to nourish, condition and tone delicate facial skin. Plus they do a great job of getting that makeup off in a hurry!
Maskeraide All Eyes On Me – Hydrating Eye Gel Patches sample size 1 pair (Full size 4 pair $25 CAD)
These are an All-In-One eye treatment to brighten, hydrate and firm the sensitive undereye skin. The patches contour to your face while doing their magic to instantly soothe and de-puff. They promise bright and radiant eyes! Have spring allergies? Just got back from a long trip? These gel patches will fix you right up!
Jelly Pong Pong Paradise Pigments – Cake Pop .4 oz Full Size $19.99
This little jar of color is a pot of hydrating cream for lips and cheeks. The Cake Pop color is a warm coral hue, plus they have one other color that is a cool hue. A little goes a long way, so carefully dip your finger into the pot and use the cream to color your lips. Then use the remaining shade on your cheeks. It is made with pumpkin seed oil and rhubarb extract.
Chella – Passionate Pink Moisturizing Lip Pencil Full Size ($18)
Such a pretty shade of pink! And it has long lasting color plus a formula complete with Vitamin C & Vitamin A to keep your lips moisturized. Love this one!
The April 2016 Beauty Box 5 has outdone itself this month! Three of the 5 items were full size and the total value comes to over $46! For an investment of $12, you can’t ask for a much better return on your money. Plus everything is so very useable. So I am pleased with the April 2016 Beauty Box 5 – What did you think of it??
Such a fun variety!! I love the lip and cheek color!! And the under eye corrector!!
That’s a real bargain for a subscription box.
The Hydrating Eye Gel Patches sound interesting. I’ve never used these before.
