Have you hit up My Pretty Pink Box for a fabulous opportunity to try samples & full-sized beauty products? I have! I haven't blogged about My Pretty Pink Boxes because I didn't want to spoil the surprise for Ms. B! I have acquired 3 boxes for us and now finally getting around to digging into the contents!
April - My 1st Pretty Pink Box purchase! So cute that these really do come in pink box that you can reuse.
-Arbonne Aromaessentials Awaken Body Lotion from Natural Organic Body: Light & fresh citrus! This is going in my center console in my car. Absorbs in the skin very well and doesn't leave my hands greasy.
-Organic Chocolate Mocha Shower Gel from 100 Percent Pure: Haven't tried this yet in the shower, but it looks like something that would be fun & sexy in the shower!
-Glamour doll Eyeshadow sample in Rusty: Like liquid copper. I would use this shadow with another rust shadow like UD Gash and dab this in the center of the lid to catch some light. This would be too disco ball all over the lid.
-Garden Botanika Heart So Natural Hand & Body Lotion sample: I love the smell of GB's Heart and find Heart So Natural to be a very lighter version of the original. This is something I would wear during the summer.
-Borghese Intensive Firming Serum: Haven't given this a try yet. The directions state to use after cleansing in the AM & PM.
-The Brush Guard: The mesh sleeve fits over your brushes to keep the bristles in shape. This company is local to the 206 too! The 1/4" Shadow size and the 5/8" Foundation size which I have over my MAC 138 brush. Perfect fit and it keeps the "rosebud" shape of the brush.
-EO Products Everyday Body Lotion in French Lavender: Relaxing & soothing scent. I love the smell of lavender. My favorite scent in my room is lavender & vanilla. This is going on my nightstand to use before bed to help lull me to sleep.
-Pencil Me In Cosmetics Healthy Eyeliner Pencil in Black Velvet: The formula is smooth and easily blendable and smudgeable. The liners are infused with vitamins & anti-oxidants, plus there is a built in sharpener in the cap! These come in an array of colors.
-Vanity Mark the Lash mascara: Full size mascara! This will be one to try in the near future since I just opened a couple from my Sephora Lash Stash. The description boasts that this formula is not too wet, has a healthy sheen, deep blue/black pigment, curl safe and is weatherproof yet removes easily while cleansing your face.
June - There was some leakage in this box due to the Healthy Sexy Hair Serum. :\ Should have been resealed in another bag. I made sure when I sent this to Ms. B to double bag and wrap the bottle in paper towels to ensure that there were no unfortunate accidents.
-Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Renewal Nourishing Styling Treatment: Made with Argan oil which has been a trend in beauty and haircare items. Lighter scented than my fave Biosilk, but makes my hair feel just as soft.
-green by nature Peppermint Lip Glaze: It says do not ingest, but I can't help but lick my lips! This tastes good! Haha! 98.8% natural and is 100% paraben free!
-Rosalyn Scent Bella fragrance oil: Smells good, but not something I would wear. If this came in a candle, I would totally buy this!
-NYX Cosmetics Lip Balm in Cherry: My finger in pot rule applies and I will not be using this. *throws in giveaway pile*
-Silk Naturals Smile Eyeshadow & Kisser Slicker Flavored Lip Gloss in Spring Fling: Smile is a shimmery khaki similar to a lot of shadows I already have. *throws in giveaway pile* The Kisser Slicker, ehhh, not a fan of the color. *throws in giveaway pile*
-Beauty Ticket 10% off coupon! Hmmm...what to order for me and Ms. B?? ;)
-Le Baby Inc. Hair Gel: Chemical & fragrance free hair gel for babies, kids and anyone with sensitive skin. The consistency is thin & watery. Great for light hold. Not so good for styles that require strong hold.
-Bella Beauty Ooh La La Liner in Cocoa: Automatic pencil with built in smudgie on the end! The formula is smooth and the smugdgie helps to soften and define the line. Similar to one of my favorite VS Eyeliners from when I was working at VS Beauty.
August - I haven't had a chance to send this to her yet, so there may be some spoilers since most of the boxes are relatively the same. ;)
-Revlon Runway Collection Glue-On Nails in Stella: A pretty french mani nude. I might have to use these one night out. You know my run with Mookie Nails. Not so good, but we'll see how these go!
-Orglamix Eyeshadow in Skyline: Looks similar to my MAC Violet pigment. *throws in giveaway pile*
-Skin Free Whipped Tamanu Body Butter: All natural ingredients, no harmful chemicals or preservatives, no petroleum, colorants, animal testing or steroids. This formula is non-greasy and has a light Tamanu scent. A nice lighter feeling alternative to most of the body butters that are out.
-Mineralicious Eyeshadow in Eggplant: Another purple shade pigment. I have a lot of purple shadows already. *throws in give away pile*
-Eyeko Beauty Face Off Cleansing Wipes & 3-in-1 Tinted Cream Sample: The tinted cream is an Eyeko best seller! I haven't tried the Face Off Cleansing Wipe yet, but I love how they are individually packaged! Great to throw in the gym bag or in the overnight bag. *throws in giveaway pile* I'm an Eyeko Ambassador, although I haven't been active...I'm lagging!
-Your Lips But Better Fantabulous Honey Lipbalm: YUM! I love honey products! Smooth on my lips and not too heavy. I like this balm! I wish it did have a lil SPF in it though.
-Organic Apoteke Rejuvenating Face Cream For Firmer, smoother, younger looking skin & Active Face Hydrating Gel For clear, blemish-free skin. Haven't tried these yet!
-Appelation Grape seed Moisturizer and Hand & Nail Cream: Haven't tried the moisturizer yet. The Hand & Nail Cream is thick and lightly scented. Very emollient & it smells yummy!
-From Kose USA Sekkisei Mask White & Perfect Clear Gel scrub. Haven't tried these yet, but they sound cool! These help to brighten the complexion while enhancing translucency and firmness. aka WHITEN your face. I guess its time to start fading out the summer tan and these will help!
