The theme for the December 2015 Beauty Box 5 is “Have Yourself a Smoky Holiday Season”. This months box has items to make your eyes smoke, your skin glow and then you can take it all off the lazy way at the end of the night 😉
What is Beauty Box 5? Beauty Box 5 is a monthly beauty subscription service that is curated by a team of beauty experts. With each shipment you’ll receive 5 samples for $12.00 (monthly). You can also choose to save some cash and sign up for $30.00 and be billed quarterly or $99.00 and be billed yearly. Shipping is FREE and your membership also gets you exclusive discounts from partner brands.
This month I got…
From OFRA, Shimmer Eye Shadow. The shade shown here is in Millennium Bark and it’s a beautiful, saturated deep brown. You can keep it in the sleeve but it’s easier to use if you can pop it in a case like a Z-Palette. The colors sent out were listed as “assorted”, so if you check out other reviews online you’ll be able to see more shades!
From Prestige Cosmetics, Total Intensity Eyeliner. The shade shown here is in Deepest Black. It’s incredibly soft and as I swatched I broke the tip off. Make sure you press lightly when you use! Don’t worry, you’ll definitely get the pigment you desire! Like the eye shadow the colors of the eye liner sent out are “assorted”.
From The Beauty Crop, Glamazon Stick. A golden glow for anywhere you need it! This shade is smooth and gorgeous. Use it on your brows, cheekbones, liner, lips… it’s good anywhere!
^^^^ these three items are swatched below….
From Beauty Box 5, Blender Brush. With a makeup mantra to live by printed on the side (just keep blending!) this blending brush is good for getting the color in the crease and blending out as needed. I always LOVE when makeup brushes come inside sub boxes!
From So Fresh So Clean, Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes. I can never have enough of these. Makeup removing wipes are fabulous for lazy nights when you just can’t bring yourself to scrub everything off at the sink, or for when you need to wipe off a bit before you wash (because a lot of makeup was that necessary to cover all the things). I also like to keep them in my bag when I shop (swatchers hand, anyone?) or to wipe swatches off of my arm as I’m photographing.
This month BB5 really knocked it out of the park. LOOK at everything you got for $12?! PLUS there is a gift card from Hello Fresh for 3 FREE Meals! You’re crazy if you don’t give this subscription box a try.
