A Box Full of Pretty Pink Goodies

October 30, 2015

This month’s Beauty Box 5 is totally pinked out. That makes me happy!  I’m a fan of the color and love when companies use the color as a platform to bolster breast cancer awareness.  Beauty Box 5 decided to send an entire box full of pretty pink goodies for the October subscription box.  The price of the box varies.  The usual rate is $12.00 per month for 5 deluxe samples and sometimes full size products.  The cost goes down to $8.25 per month when you purchase an entire year.  So, let’s talk about what was in the box…

October 2015 Beauty Box 5

  1. HappyFace Makeup Cleansing Cloth from Happy Hands– A pretty pink machine washable cloth that removes makeup with just water.  It’s nice and soft too, therefore gentle on the skin.  Retail $3.99  #wipethatfaceoff
  2. Pink Rhinestone Kabuki Brush from Ferro Cosmetics – Perfect (and pretty) for buffing on powder products or for blending.  Don’t you love the rhinestones?  It’s pretty to keep out on the vanity too!  Retail $25.00  #ferrocosmetics
  3. Nubar Mini Nail Polish – One can never have too many pink nail polishes, as far as I’m concerned.  Retail $4.00 for full size  #nubar
  4. Perfect Pout Long Lasting Balm Stick fro Styli-Style – Love this balm.  It’s nice, highly pigmented and has a vanilla scent.  Retail $4.99  #stylistyle
  5. Knotty Hair Ties – This is perfect for putting your hair up in a pony tail.  They don’t cause dents in the hair.  However, my hair is too heavy to effectively wear this type of elastic in my hair.  Retail $4.00  #shopknotty

Worth it or not?  I think so!!  This is a great box of beauty products to sample for only $8.25 per month.  Let me know your favorite subscription boxes in the comments below.

    I just got mine a couple of days ago and I have to say that I think it’s a great box! I was just working on my review today. For the price, it’s so good!! I’d actually use everything in the box, minus the hair ties, but that’s just because of me having short hair!

      Yes, this was a good one! Funny that we both can’t use the hair ties but for different reasons. My hair is too thick and heavy for this type. Thanks for stopping by! Stacie xo

I’m sharing some of my best sellers from the pas I’m sharing some of my best sellers from the past few weeks because they’re also some of my favorites. As you can see, I’m a pretty casual outfit kind of gal most of the time.

I do love getting dressed up too, but casual is my go-to every day style.💗

Are any of these outfits calling your name?

Just say shop and I’ll magically send you the info.

I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 for a beautiful natural makeup look that enhances the beauty of mature skin and protects it from the sun. It’s makeup and skincare in one! I love a multitasker, don’t you?

What I used:
Universal Tinted Moisturizer: This is a lightweight tinted moisturizer with SPF 46 that gives sheer coverage and a natural glow. It nourishes and hydrates with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and a high concentration of niacinamide (vitamin B3). It blends out perfectly for all skin tones.

Luminous Eye Corrector: This product comes in 4 peachy shades to cancel out under eye circles and darkness. It stays all day, doesn’t crease and gives perfect coverage without looking cakey. It has mineral SPF 41 to protect that delicate skin under the eyes.

Lip Silk: Deeply hydrating lip color that’s formulated with Squalane, Meadowfoam, & Peptides to nourish and soften lips without bleeding into lip lines. Available in 2 shades Soft and Bold. It has mineral based SPF 40 to protect lips from the sun and also from blue light.

These are fantastic skincare products that make you feel good in your own skin & they’re linked in my profile!💫

Sunday funny… Yes, this is how I think!🙃 The Sunday funny… Yes, this is how I think!🙃

The Costco parking lot is always so crowded and full, but a rainy day keeps lots of shoppers away so I could score a great parking spot right now.

I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of S I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of Skin Pharm for a little Dysport refresh with the incredible Rebekah.💖

I really appreciate her knowledge and skill, but what impresses me the most is the way she listens to my concerns about my aging skin and she does everything she can to help make me feel more confident.

She educated me on the latest products and treatments available and we decided together that Skinvive is something that I might want to try in the future. Have you heard of it? It purely for hydration and not for volume.

You can see my highlights with my previous treatments at Skin Pharm too.

Skin Pharm is a clinician-founded, female-led cosmetic dermatology practice with locations in several states including TX, GA, NC, SC and TN. 

Oh, and their skincare products are amazing! You can purchase them right from their website too! I highly recommend their cleansers, the eye sculpt cream, the Youth Serum and the new Face Whip.💫

✨Right now they’re running a special where you get FREE cleanser AND Crystal Clear with any treatment  through 5/30/25.✨

Book your appointment at @skinpharm asap so they can take care of you too!

I absolutely loved all the dresses and accessories I absolutely loved all the dresses and accessories I tried on! I ended up buying the orange striped shirtdress that day, picked up another one a few days later, and I'm still dreaming of one more.🤦🏻‍♀️

Now, bring on that beach vacation or call me to go to brunch! I’m ready and I have the perfect dress!👗 

Comment SHOP for the links and sizing info.🥰
