Target Beauty Box


I bought the Target Beauty Box for $10 a super great deal because I received awesome goodies in here! When I saw this in my mailbox I instantly got super excited because I love target and i love beauty!

 
This was my first look inside the box and everything was nicely organized and it looked cute.
 
 
L'Oreal Butterfly Mascara ($7.99) I am ecstatic to try this out because I've heard amazing things about this mascara on YouTube and blogs. I have never tried any mascaras by L'Oreal so this is great I finally get to sample it. I love that it's full size too! 
 
 
Hair Food Treatment ($11.99) This is the second product I receive from Hair Food and i love this brand! I really enjoyed this product and I want to try out the whole line. I am glad it's a full size item because I can use it for awhile until I have to rebuy it.
 
 
Laneige Sleeping Mask ($5.75) I am really liking this water sleeping mask it feels good on the skin and it is light. When I wash my face in the morning i can feel the moisture without being oily. It is also a great sample size.
 
Boots No7 Serum This is a tiny one use sample which did not impress me because I need to try out things more than once to see if I like them or not. I put this in my mom's stocking because this more use for someone with mature skin.

 
Covergirl Eye Enhancer kit ($4.49) I received the color blushing nudes 284 but I was very disappointed. The colors look so stunning but had little to no pigmentation. Definitely will not be purchasing this.
 
Pixi Silky Eye Pen ($6.09) I received the color black noir and like half of the full size. This liner is so so so creamy I am highly impressed. I forgot to take a picture of it because it was so fantastic.

 
Revlon HD Lacquer ($7.99) I usually hate lip gloss but I am trying to use it more and I love the color I got Pink Diamond because it is a light pink and not too sticky.
 
Chapstick Total Hydration ($2.99) Chapstick is great for the winter because it is always needed on the packaging it says it's new so that is pretty cool. I got the color sweet peach but from reviews I heard it has no pigmentation so that kind of sucks. I put this inside my mom's stocking because she loves lip balms.
 
The total value of my box was $47.29 which is amazing I paid about one fourth of that! I will definitely be buying more of these wen the come out because this is an awesome value and I loved almost all the products.

December 2014 "Thinking of You" Ipsy Bag


Hello girls, I received my December Ipsy bag! I adore these pink envelopes they look so chic and they always bring me happiness. This month's theme was thinking of you which fits in pretty well with holidays but I would have preferred another more Christmassy theme.


BWC Facial Cleanser ($2.99) This a travel size facial cleanser which I think is a perfect size to see if I like it or not. This brand beauty without cruelty is 100% vegan which is always great to discover a great brand like this one. I haven't tried this yet but I will soon and I think I will like it.

NYX Butter Lip Balm ($4) I liked this lip balm it leaves my lips soft like butter and a tint of red. I received the color Red Velvet which is absolutely perfect for the holidays. It was a nice addition to the box.

 
Tarte Mascara ($8) I am so excited to try this mascara out finally I've heard great reviews of this mascara. I am thinking of purchasing the full size because it is wonderful! Tarte is also a fantastic brand that I adore.
 
Crown Brush ($6.99) This brush is so soft and feels like a good quality brush. I love that it is double ended because then it is useful for two things and great for traveling. As much as I would have loved to keep this brush I gave to my mom in her stocking because I know she'll love it and put it to good use.
 
Pixi Fairy Dust ($10) I am really happy with this product it is very subtle and a neutral eye shadow. I love pixi they have great products.
 
Overall I enjoyed it everything in y ipsy bag for this month so that is great but nothing really stood out for me. But it did have great brands included like Tarte, Pixi, Crown, and NYX and of course a vegan brand. The total value of my December 2014 Ipsy bag was $31.98.

Ipsy November 2014 "girl meets glitter" Review


I received my November 2014 Ipsy bag really early this month that's always a plus! This is the overall look of everything in my bag for this month. I am happy with everything it is one of my favorite months so far.

 
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eyes ($10) I was excited to receive this because I've heard great things about this concealer. This is a small size but you only need a tiny bit so this will last me awhile. I tried today on my imperfections and I like it. It is a bit thick but not bad at all. I might buy the full size when I finish this sample. The color I got is neutral medium an it fit y skin ton perfect. 

 
Jcat Lip Paint ($5) I really wanted this I love lip products they are my absolute favorite I got the color mad splatter and I really like it. The website isn't working which is kind of weird so I guessed the cost of this. I believe it's full size which is awesome.
 
Starlooks Gem Pencil ($17) I  love this I received this last month in my boxycharm box and I fell in love! I use it on my water line and it's so pigmented and soft. I got the color Ultra Olive which is a beautiful gold color. I really want to buy all of these. This is also a full size item so that's already 2 full size items in my bag.
 
SeaRX Lotion ($5) I hate lotions but this lotion impressed me I love the smell and its thick but I feels so nice on the skin without leaving it greasy or nasty. This lotion does not have a size so I guessed on the price. It is a really small sample I wished it was bigger but I like it so it's fine.
 
Marc Anthony Hairspray ($1.50) This is the only item I was disappointed in because I hate hairspray I don't use it at all and this is cheap they could have sent us a bigger size but it's not bad. I will probably give it away. I forgot to take a picture of it individually because I really did nit like this one bit.
 
Overall I received $38.5 of stuff in my bag which is 4 times ore than what I paid for and most of the items I did enjoy.

Nature Box Review

I received my nature box today and I had totally forgot I ordered it so it was a pleasant surprise to see it on my door step. Nature Box is a monthly subscription of snacks it's $19.95 per month. Their is many healthy snacks that you get to choose each month which is awesome. The box I am reviewing is a trial so the samples are small and they surprised me with the snacks. if you want to join click here.
 
 
Sea Salt Sun-Crunch These are really good they satisfy my needs for something crunchy and salty. I definitely want to buy more of these. I liked how these look because it was unique and looked kind of cool I am glad they also tasted good.



Garden Tomato Crunchies These were good to try but they were just okay they have an interesting flavor. These are good for a small snack but they definitely aren't filling. Almonds are always great though and the flavor is a cool summer taste.


 
Cinnamon Swirl Kettle Kernels These were so disappointing I was expecting these to be my favorite because I love cinnamon but they were not good. They were pretty much corn nuts sprinkled with cinnamon on top. I did not like these two flavors together. I would not recommend this snack bbq corn nuts are way better.


Coconut Cashews These cashews were amazingly delicious! These were my favorite from the box and I cannot wait to order more asap! They taste similar to the Ferrero Raffaello Coconut candies which happen to be my favorite flavor. I was super stoked to try these and I want more now.


 
Cashew Crumble I couldn't find these on the website but these are really delish! I enjoyed these and these were my big sample which was great because they were really good. They sort of tasted like granola to me which is wonderful.
 
Overall, I enjoyed reviewing this box it has lots of yummy snacks. I enjoyed all but one which was good and I am looking into making this a monthly subscription because it is the best food box I have ever tried.

Influenster "Moda VoxBox" Review

Influenster kindly sent me the moda vox box to review which I was super excited for because moda in Spanish means fashion. As soon I saw it on my door step I opened it up immediately! On the first look I fell in love it was so packed with awesome goodies! Influenster is free and they usually send me a box every couple of months which is wonderful. They usually have a theme and the way you are chosen is by your social influence. If you want to join click here.

It came with this cute card that has all kinds of fashionable items like nail polish, lipstick, perfume, etc. On the back it has the items and the prices!

Swiss Miss Simply Cocoa Sadly,this spilled inside my box so I didn't have a chance to make it buy I have tried it before I like it but it's not super good. It mainly just got my other products dirty which sucked.
Hair Food Apricot Mask ($11.99) This came dirty from the hot chocolate powder that spilled but good thing the sealed was close so it didn't get ruined. This smells so good and I've tried it 3 times so far and I love it! It made my hair so soft I am considering on buying the shampoo and conditioner.

 Jergens Ultra Healing Lotion ($1.84) It's a good travel size and will be good for winter other than that I didn't care much for it. Most likely, I will give it to my mom she loves lotion unlike me.


Rimmel Transparent Lip Liner ($5.99) I have not used this yet but I like the idea and I am excited to try it out. I also like that it is brand new!

Rimmel Renew Lipstick ($5.39) I absolutely love this liptick it's the color "As you want Victoria" which is perfect for fall! it goes on so smooth and no shimmer which I love I definitely will buy more!

Rimmel Rockin Curves Mascara ($5.59) I have not tried this yet because I currently have the falsies mascara open but I am excited to try it! I love the packaging it is adorable. The color is 003 in extreme black.


Puffs Soft Pack($1.99) Tissues are always welcome especially for the winter I love the packaging on these it is cute and chic. I really like that they put the basic kind because I do not like all the other new kinds.

Resource Water ($0.74) I like this water bottle it big 23.7 fl oz so the cost is very cheap! I forgot to take a picture of it but it was good I enjoyed it. I live in Texas and it is barely starting to get cold so the water was perfect for a hot summer day!

Boxycharm October 2014 "Bewitched"

I received my first Boxycharm today this month's theme is Bewitched which goes with the October Halloween season which is such a fun idea! If you don't already Boxycharm is a monthly subscription box that includes mostly full size beauty items and it's $21 each month.
 
I loved the packaging It's adorable and the information card is great it provides the cost and size of the items as well as how to use the products so very helpful!
 

Costal Scents Eclipse Palette ($14.95) This was one of the spoilers shown on Instagram and I was super excited for it. It ahs all kinds of colors for different skin tones and to correct redness, yellow pigmentation, and bruises. The packaging does feel a bit cheap but it seems like it will be good especially for Halloween.
 
Be A Bombshell Eye shadow ($14) This is a beautiful navy blue color the pigmentation is good because it comes out a softer color not as deep as in the pan. It's a nice product and full sized and I will use this so I'm happy with it. For the cost I would have liked a sturdier packaging it feels really cheap.
 
Starlooks Ultra Gem Pencil ($14) This is one of my favorite items in the box I love it it's stunning and super smooth and it's full size! It's not on the Starlooks website though there is a similar one but not exactly the same as this one or the color.

 
Palmetto Derma Collagen Booster ($48) This is a nice size and it's pricey so I am excited to try this out and see if it really helps my skin glow. The texture is a little bit watery for a serum but I like that it's not thick or greasy it feels good on the skin.



Cult/Commerce Shady Nail Polishes ($21) These nail polishes are beautiful they go right on with the theme. One is beautiful purple shade called #18 and the other is a dark grey with sparkles called #22. I love the purple shade which is the one I'm currently wearing right now. Lots of people had problems with the brush because it was too stiff but mine wasn't it works great I have no complaints.


I loved this box it had an amazing value of $111.95 which I only paid $21 so that's epic. I love the nail polishes, the gem pencil, the concealer palette and the serum. The only thing I'm whatever about is the be a bombshell eye shadow but I will still try to wear it especially for fall! If you would like to subscribe to receive the future goodies click here!

Ipsy October 2014 "Beauty Candy" Bag

Hey guys, today I received my "Beauty Candy" bag from Ipsy and the bag is really cute I adore it but I don't really feel like it fit with Halloween.  If you don't already know Ipsy is a $10 monthly cosmetic subscription with 4-6 deluxe samples and full sized items.


This is everything that was inside my Ipsy bag this month and when I first saw everything I was disappointed because I wasn't overly excited over any product. I also wished they would have put candy inside it would have fit well with the theme.
 
Acacia BB Cream ($12) This is a beauty balm for hair and I wasn't overly excited for this but I'm more excited of trying it now. It's a nice size sample so it should last me a while to at least see if I like it or not. I like the smell of it and I believe it's a deluxe size sample.
 
 
Starlooks Lipgloss $4 This lip gloss is in the color guilty pleasure I love the color and it smells kind of like vanilla. I'm so disappointed at how small this gloss is it's like 1/3 of the full size I would have liked to receive the full size version especially since it's not highly expensive.

Mica Mineral Shadow ($14.95) I received the color 93 reluctance but I really wanted Harlequin but this color is still stunning and it's a full size item. I don't know if I'm keeping this or swapping it because I'm not big on mineral eye shadows they're so messy.


Skyn Iceland Cleansing Cloths ($5) I'm disappointed once again that these are 1/3 of the full size item I would have liked to receive more. These contain 10 cleansing cloths so I will be able to see if I like them or not. I've heard wonders about this brand and I love cleansing wipes that's mainly what I use to remove my makeup so they're always welcome.

Rogue Perfume ($9.99) I think this is a nice size perfume and will definitely last a while. I also really like the packaging but I don't like perfume so I will be trading this for the Noyah lipstick that I so badly want! 
Overall, I think this month's Ipsy bag was a miss for me I didn't love anything and I received some small samples as well I would have loved to actually see stuff I put I liked on my quiz because I asked for no perfumes and no hair stuff and no lip gloss and received all 3. The total value of my bag was $45.94 which isn't bad but I didn't receive the items I wanted. You can subscribe here.
