May 2014 Beauty Box 5

I signed up last month for a free month of the Beauty Box 5 subscription box. I just cannot say no to free. (And then I didn't unsubscribe in time so... I bought an extra month. Surprise.)

I've actually been meaning to review this box since last week since it arrived the same day as my Ipsy Bag! I know, what an awesome mail day!

Here's the loot:


What's inside:

3 packets of "Just Being Sexy" Body Bronzer - $9.00
BH Cosmetics California Collection Sampler - $1 (?)
Montagne Jeunesse Glacial Clay Spa Mask - $2
Aveeno Positively Nourishing Calming Body Wash (Lavender, Chamomile, and Ylang-Ylang) - $1
La Fresh Travel-lite Facial Cleansing Wipes - $2.50

Total: $15.50
Total Paid: $12.00

All right, this was my first month getting this box and I think it's... okay... I'm going to wait until next month to really give a good judgement of what I think about the box but I just don't think I'm getting the most bang for my buck here. 

I'm excited to try the bronzers because I've been on a self-tanner kick this summer as I'm trying to be good about sun exposure and the Clay Spa Mask should be fun to try. I've used sme of the La Fresh wipes before, but a different type that came in my Ipsy bag and found they were a bit irritating to my skin. These are slightly different so perhaps they'll work out better for me. Will report back with findings. 

I'd actually received the exact same sampler of BH Cosmetics in my July 2013 Ipsy bag so my sister adopted this duplicate. I went ahead and swatched mine though, just for shits and grins. 




These colors are a lot more pigmented than the Pacifica colors I received in my Ipsy bag this month. I use Malibu quite often since I'm a sucker for a goldenrod colored eye shadow.

Overall, this box is okay... It's definitely nothing special but I don't regret getting it. We'll see what next month brings.
