The Target Monthly Beauty Box

July 24, 2017

Hi everyone, Amy here to review the July Target Beauty Box. Some of the items are a few of my “go-to products” and I found a couple new ones that I love, too!  Let’s jump right in, here’s the July box.
Target Beauty Box

First up, the products I loved!

I use the Neutrogena make-up remover cleansing towelettes all the time. When I am done at the gym, I grab one of these so my face isn’t covered in yuck until I’m able to shower.
The Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Moisturizer is a favorite as well. My aesthetician actually recommended this to me after my last facial. It’s very gentle on the skin, and really does a great job of moisturizing.
Secret used to be my favorite deodorant brand, but it started to irritate my skin a bit so I quit using it. I’m so glad this was in my box so I could try again. There was no irritation at all, and I really liked the cool waterlily scent.

These next two products were my favorite out of the box.

I couldn’t wait to try the masks out, and I grabbed the Que Bella Replenishing dead sea mud mask (in the blue package). It was lovely. I felt like it did a great job moisturizing and my skin felt better after. The other mask was just the same, definitely a nice addition to my skin care routine for the week.

 The ELF Illuminating Set and Mist Spray was awesome! I am a loyal Super Goop setting mist gal, but I really loved this. There is a pleasant scent to this, and I loved the subtle “glow” it gave me.

Now for the products that didn’t make the cut.

 I wasn’t crazy about the Frizz Ease Secret Weapon, it worked when I first applied it, but my hair frizzed back up as soon as it dried. I have very frizzy hair, so I’m sure my hair is extra hard to tame.
The Acure daily cream was nice, but nothing special. The scent was pleasant and I didn’t feel greasy after I applied, it just didn’t wow me.
I was so looking forward to Scunci Cashmere blend headbands, but they were so tight. I didn’t notice any indentation after I wore it for a good hour, but boy it sure held my hair tightly.

And that’s my review! I always love the chance to try before I buy, and that’s just what the Target Beauty Box offers. You have to get yours as soon as they release them because they go fast!  As a matter of fact, this box is sold out, but be on the lookout for the next one.

What do you think of the Target Monthly Beauty Box?

    I am a big fan of Acure, and I love the Neutrogena Wipes as well. Not a bad box.

    Looks like it was an especially good Target box! I’ve gotten a few in the past, but I never knew how to sign up for a notice about when they’re being offered so by the time I did find out about the box, it was sold out. How did you know about it?

    I’ve bought the Target Beauty Box many times since it’s always a bargain and a great way to discover new products. The masks would be my favorite I’m sure. I’ve got that ELF mist somewhere – need to find it now!

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!💫

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.🥰
