Walmart Beauty Box: Spring 2015

The Spring Walmart Beauty Box came in today's mail. Now if only it had brough Spring weather with it. 

Walmart Beauty Box is $5 and is delivered quarterly. it usually includes sample sizes, maybe a full-sized item, and lots of coupons and a few foil packets. 

The goodies:

-Lady Gaga Fame: This scent contains "teas of belladonna, crushed heart of tiger orchidea with a lack veil of incense, pulverized apricot, and the combinative essences of saffron and honey drops." The liquid itself is actually black "like the soul of fame," but come out completely invisible. I can't decide if I like it or not. I like light, floral scents, and this is a little muskier that I would normally wear.


-Neitrogena Healthy Skin Boosters Facial Cleanser: This cleanser is a 14mL sample. It contains white tea and vitamin A. It claims to boots softness, evenness, & radiance. It also promises that it "won't over-dry skin." I have so many cleansers right now, so this will probably end up on eDivv. 


-Schwarzkopf essenceUltime Shampoo & Conditioner: These samples are labeled at 50mL each, but they look like closer to 20mL each to me. Maybe 30. I give 50mL drugs all of the time, and these aren't even close to that size. Anyway, these are labeled as a new product. The formulas promise to be "fast-drying" and for "damaged, depleted hair." I opened the bottles, and they don't really have a scent. I'm always open to free shampoo and conditioner samples, so these will go right in the shower.


-Rimmel Last Accelerator Mascara: This is a full-sized product. It claims that lashes will "look up to 177% longer in 30 days" thanks to its "exclusive natural Grow-Lash Complex with Procapil." I currently have a lot of mascaras, and I'm really in love with the ones from Benefit, so I think this will also go to eDivv. 



-Dove goFresh Body Wash in Mandarin & Tiare Flower: This body wash is a decent sized sample- it could probably be used for 3-5 days. The smell is light and the formula is nice and creamy. However, I'm currently addicted to my Bliss body washes, so this will probably go in the travel bag.


Foil packets and coupons:

My thoughts: I always love the Walmart Beauty Boxes. It helps me discover new beauty products that Walmart is going to start carrying, and it's always full of coupons. Plus, at $5, I'm not going to complain regardless of what the box contains.

DottieBox: March 2015

I'm back!!! I took a bit of a blogging hiatus during the very busy month of February, but I'm back. March is starting with crazy amounts of snow and DottieBox in my mailbox. 

The Goodies:

Totally Tish "Inspire" Necklace: This necklace is silver tone with black lettering. Simple with a good message. The charm is about 1" long. 


Harvest Co. "Sparkle and Shine" Pencils: these pencils are gold tone and embossed with the phrase "Sparkle and Shine" near the eraser. 


Life in Mint Vintage Bottle Cap Magnets: This set of 4 magnets is really cute. I love a good vintage throwback!


Itty Bitty Bubbles & Co Bubble Bath Cup: This cup is supposed to contain everything you need for a great bubble bath. It smells great!


DottieBox Chalkboard Labels: This packet includes 10 labels and a stick of chalk. These are cute and would great for labeling things at a get-together. 

My thoughts: This box included a really great variety of things- we got jewelry, bath products, office supplies, and household goods. I think this was a perfect body!
