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 5’1” and petite, but all of these are regular sizes. So remember, the cropped pants look full length for me, so they’re going to be shorter on you average and taller height ladies.😉

I did a thing… I joined Limelife by Alcone as a B I did a thing…

I joined Limelife by Alcone as a Beauty Guide because I love their products so much! This cream foundation is used by women everywhere, including makeup artists for the big screen, stage, weddings and more.
 
It’s highly pigmented, so a little goes a long way.  The shades are inclusive, from the lightest skin tones to the darkest. There’s a perfect match for everyone.

There are different ways to apply it. Use your fingers, a brush or a beauty sponge. I used the hydrating spray mist which helps give the skin an instant glow.

I will share more of their makeup and products with you soon. 

Have you tried any Limelife makeup or skincare products? Let me know if you want to!

Have a great weekend friends!💖

Today’s outfit is white cropped pants (longer on me at just 5’1”, but so perfect for us petite ladies who want to avoid alterations). Paired with the most flattering v-neck,  a pair of black slides and the most fabulous heart pendant necklace. Let me know if you want LINKS.

Here’s your sign to stop waiting and start going.

Just unboxed my Ryder hoodie from Seas and I’m kind of in love with the hot pink and the gorgeous embroidery. It’s super cozy, easy to throw on, and adds the perfect pop of color.💖

If you’ve been looking for something comfortable for cool mornings or evenings, this one’s definitely worth checking out. 

Let me know of you want DETAILS on how to get one too!
