Subscription Boxes

Beauty in a Box

May 6, 2016

Who doesn’t like getting a box full of beauty delivered to her mailbox? ย I’ve been receiving the monthly Beauty Box 5 subscription box for a few years now. ย The box contains 5-6 full size and sample size beauty products per box. ย The subscription is $12 per month if you pay by the month. ย However, when you sign up for an entire year and pay in full the price goes down to $8.25 per month. ย Not a bad deal for beauty in a box!

I’m a little bit behind in posting my April box. ย I really loved everything in it, so I thought that I still needed to share it with you.

Beauty Box 5 April 2016

The theme for the April 2016 box is Hydration

    I was incredibly impressed by this box, and it is my favorite BB5 box to date! I can’t wait to see what they do this month!

    Terrific box. I’d be very happy with it. I’ve tried MaskerAide facial masks and liked them so the eye mask would be great to try. Love that they put the full size Chella lip crayon in there. That would make it for me.

    From everything I see, BB5 has consistently great boxes. I was sent one to try last fall, and I loved it. I’m sorry they didn’t continue. If Sephora doesn’t pick up their game, I may try BB5 instead. I have always wanted to try Jelly Pong Pong and I love Chella!

    This is a great sub box idea. I just can’t sub right now because I’m swimming in products ๐Ÿ™‚

    Ooh, that’s some great stuff! I didn’t know MaskerAide did eye masks (they previously only did full face sheet masks) I need to get my hands on those.

    I recently had to switch from my normal makeup wipes to the GBC ones. They are pretty good!
