The Luxury Sephora Play Box

November 3, 2017

Affiliate Links

Most people know that Sephora has a monthly subscription box called the Play Box.  It’s technically now a bag rather than a box because each month your products are presented in a super cute bag.  However, most of you probably don’t know that Sephora recently started a luxury edition of this box. It’s not available as a subscription though. You’re just notified when it’s available to order through an email from Sephora.  The Luxury Box is limited edition.  Find more info HERE.  It costs $20 per box for 5-6 deluxe sample size luxury products and the box sells out fast.

This box is called The Beauty Remedy Edition. Everything is packed in a pretty pink sturdy case that zips all around.  It can obviously be repurposed for a multitude of things.  There are individual cards that give information about each of the products inside the box as well.  Each card gives a description of the product and, directions for use and possible side effects if applicable.

luxury beauty product samples

This box had 3 skincare products:

  • La Mer Moisturizing Soft Cream – This cream contains a “miracle broth” to diminish the look of existing damage.  You emulsify the formula in your hands to release the host of active ingredients and apply to your fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Tatcha Supple Moisture Rich Silk Cream – This product contains complete silk proteins that work their magic to form a richly hydrating, moisture binding veil on skin.  It contains a trio of anti-aging Japanese superfoods to deliver a healthy glow while Akoya pearl particles create a firmer appearance.
  • SK-II Radical New Age Power Eye Cream – This eye cream is a luxurious bedtime treat with Pietra, a unique compound discovered in the sake-brewing plant.  It has peptides to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles around the eyes.

luxury skincare samples

There were 2 lip products:

  • Givenchy Le Rouge Perfecto Beautifying Lip Balm in 01 Perfect Pink – This is a lip balm that “plumps on contact” and delivers moisture with shea butter extract.
  • Giorgio Armani Ecstasy Shine & Care Lip Color in Four Hundred – This one is a vibrant red shade that moisturizes like a balm but saturates lips in a bold color with a glossy shine.

And the obligatory perfume sample:

  • Atelier Cologne Santal Carmin Cologne – I’m not a huge perfume fan, but this one is a great size spray bottle.  It has sandlewood notes.  It brings a blend of dulce de leche and rare spices to the mix and an essential oil concentration of 18%.

I’ve been extremely impressed with the luxury versions of the Sephora Play boxes.  I enjoy luxury beauty products and these products put a little extra pep in my step!  You can check out my previous box HERE.

    By the time I got the email from Sephora, this was sold out 🙁 So bummed! Looks like some great products. I especially like the pink case and would have loved to try that perfume.

      Well that’s a bummer! I know that they give Rouge members first access, which is how I think I’ve been able to get each one so far. Have a wonderful weekend Tamara! Stacie xo

    I had no idea that they offered a luxury box (or bag, rather), and this is quite impressive!

      They just started this a few months ago. They’re $20 instead of the regular $10 ones, but they have luxury instead so definitely worth it. Stacie xo

    This is the one I ordered they sent me the second edition one instead. Thankfully, they were super nice and just refunded me and let me keep it. I always love getting these especially the La Mer it’s so amazing!

      Oh how weird that they sent you the last one. It was good too. I look forward to more of these rather than the regular Play boxes. Stacie xo

    I considered buying this but I’m not always into samples. These on the other hand are quite nice and the pink bag is a winner. This is the second time with LaMer which I’d have enjoyed getting.

      Yes, I was surprised to receive the La Mer cream again, but I am happy to have it. I’ve been into using my stash of samples lately with my new vanity set-up. I’m not always of fan of them either. Stacie xo

    not bad for $20! do they just send random products or tailor-fitted to your preference?

      They usually have 2 different boxes and I believe it’s random for which one they send you. Of course there will be products that won’t work for your skin type, coloring, etc. Stacie xo

Running quick errands on a hot day calls for a loose fitting dress and comfortable sneakers.

Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already reaching for rich fall colors. 🍂

#ad One of my favorite ways to transition into fall is by layering lightweight pieces from @soft_surroundings that keep me comfortable on warm afternoons but are also perfect for when the temperatures start to cool down. It’s an easy way to ease into the next season.

These warm, earthy colors feel so timeless, and each piece can be mixed and matched with other wardrobe favorites.

Do you have a favorite fashion season?

I started with an eyeshadow palette that has a variety of textures and shades in the rose family to create a million different looks. And yes, you can wear shimmers and whatever else makes you feel confident even if you’re a more mature woman.😎

You can’t go wrong any of the makeup brushes from BK Beauty to apply and blend your makeup. This eyeshadow brush is one of many that I love.

The foundation stick is new for me and I’m wondering where it’s been my whole life! It’s that good. Just swipe, blend and go. Available in so many shades that there’s one for everyone!🙌🏻

Adding depth and glow to the face couldn’t be easier with a multitasking palette of bronzer, highlighter and blush. It’s perfect for travel too.✨

The lip glow is fun because it’s a pH reactive one so it’s almost like having a custom shade that’s just for you.

Comment CODE for the link and my discount code that gets you 50% off your first two months.

It’s a great way to try beautiful bags without committing to a single bag. I’m having so much fun with this membership!👜

Thank you @vivrelle for the gift of this membership!
