Subscription Boxes

Sephora Play Box Reveal

October 20, 2016

My Sephora Play monthly subscription box arrived today.  I tore that sucker right open because I love getting these boxes in the mail each month.  I pay for my subscription box, but it’s still a fun surprise to see the contents each month.  This month has a mix of some beauty and makeup products along with the obligatory fragrance sample as well.  Sorry, but I just don’t need another fragrance sample…

This box sells for only $10.  I personally think its worth it’s price to have the opportunity to try out new products each month.  Now for the reveal…  Scroll down to see what was in the October Play box.

The products came in this adorable fabric bag.

october sephora play box

YSL Mon Paris perfume sample – This scent has fruity and floral layers over a musky base.  I haven’t tried this perfume yet.

The True Cream Aqua Bomb from Belif is a lightweight gel eye cream that’s supposed to tighten the look of skin on the face and neck.

Pure Revival Peel from Skin, Inc is a non-abrasive peel that gently sloughs away dead skin cells to reveal a bright renewed complexion.

Christophe Robin Regenerating Mask – This is a conditioning hair mask to strengthen hair while enhancing color and shine.

Smashbox Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick in Driver’s Seat is a water-resistant, non feathering formula that’s supposed to stay on for 8 hours.  I can’t wait to put this one to the test!

Blinc Mascara Amplified – I bought this mascara a few years ago and was pretty impressed by it.  It uses a  “tube” type of technology to coat the lashes.  You use warm water to remove the mascara and the tubes slide off the lashes.  It didn’t work quite as cleanly as that, but it is pretty cool!

I look forward to trying out the rest of the products from my Sephora Play Box.  Do you get this beauty subscription box?  Let me know what you think of it.

    I just got my bag yesterday, and I got 3 of the same products as you, the Smashbox lippie that is terrific, the hair mask and the YSL perfume. I would’ve liked to try the blinc mascara (actually I thought they were supposed to send me some mascara to try or maybe I dreamed that, lol), but I am happy with what I got this month too

      This is the first month where I’ve heard of people getting different things. I personally don’t like that. It gives us something to compare our box to and some people might be mad they got certain things. Ya know?! Stacie xo

    I only got one month of this box, before Sephora canceled my subscription for some unknown reason. But, from what I’ve seen they have included some great samples!

    Hi Stacie,
    Nice to meet you. 🙂

    Since the product come in adorable fabric bag, it looks more lovely. It comes with affordable price that means everyone would love to get it. The box contains the regular use products and I think everyone agree with that. The perfume, cream, mascara, lipsticks are most daily used product and it will be easy to keep it secure in one box.

    You have suggested very well product and I must recommend this product to every women to try it minimum once. Love your idea to introduce it with we all. Each product comes with amazing in look. The best thing which I like most of this box is: it is portable women can carry it when they are traveling. Since it comes with box there is no need to carry other box for taking this. Women can easily open and keep make up using this small box anywhere.

    Thanks.
    – Ravi.

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!💫

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!
