First peek into the January 2017 Allure Beauty Box!

The January 2017 Allure Beauty Box theme is:

Feast for the Eyes

Along with the monthly beauty products curated to the theme, Allure includes a great mini-mag that contains “product reviews and tips to help you get the best results from your samples.” Each product has a full page review.

Biobelle – Botanic Fiber Facial Mask ($4.99)

This is “I Woke Up Like This,” a serum-drenched 15 minute fiber mask and one of several that Biobelle makes. Other boxes could contain “Beautyscoop” or “Beautysecret” masks instead. It has a citrusy scent and feels cool on your face. This particular mask has Wild Rose extract as an exfoliant and Vitamin C to brighten dark spots, but the main ingredients are water and glycerin. It is non-toxic and the fiber of the mask is biodegradable.

Doucce – Freematic Eye Shadow ($35)

This is an Allure Limited Edition quad eye shadow palette to give you four silky essentials for a sultry, smoky eye. The colors are really attractive and include a shimmery plum (color for the eyelid), a matte black (for the lash line), a pearly white (highlighter for the inner corner), and a slate gray (for the outer corner). I can just see how they go together to make you look really great for a night out!

Oscar Blandi – Pronto Dry Shampoo Invisible Spray 1.4 oz travel size ($11)

This is a different dry shampoo than what we are used to seeing. Instead of white powder, making your hair gunk up or matte, this one is clear and leaves no residue in your hair. It would be great for traveling or just when you are so busy you don’t get a chance for a wet shampoo for a day or so.

Dr. Brandt – Microdermabrasion .25 oz sample size ($4.06)

The tube says this is an age defying exfoliator. It smells citrusy and has a gritty texture (as you would expect), but is gentle to the skin as it brightens, moisturizes, and exfoliates.

Sigma – E70 Medium Angled Shading Brush ($10)

This brush is soft, synthetic, and cruelty-free with angled beveled edges to use for brow highlighting or to blend into the creases. The full size brush measures 7″ but this one is a sample approx. 5″ long, just perfect for my travel makeup bag.

Burt’s Bees – Natural Lipstick in 501 Blush Basin .12 oz Full Size ($8.99)

This is a long-lasting, moisturizing neutral rosy-nude lipstick that contains no parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, or petrolatum. Moringa and raspberry-seed oil will help keep your dry, chapped lips kissable! The color is vibrant and has a satin finish. Blush Basin is just one of the 14 shades of lipstick that Burt’s Bees makes. We all love Burt’s Bees products!

The retail value of the January 2017 Allure Beauty Box came to $74.04. That is a great value for the money spent and I loved each thing in the box! My real favorite turned out to be the eye makeup brush as I had just about decided to go out and purchase a new one – great timing on Allure’s part!

Have you tried the Allure Beauty Box? This is my 3rd one and it is quickly working its way up the list of my favorite beauty sub boxes!
