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?

    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’ve added two supplements from @ritual to my daily routine:

Ritual Perimenopause Hormone Support — designed to support women navigating the changes that can come with perimenopause. They’re formulated for women over 40 who are seeking hormone balance.

Ritual Essential for Women Multivitamin — to help fill nutritional gaps in my diet, because even when we try to eat well, we may not get every nutrient we need.

I also appreciate Ritual’s focus on ingredient traceability and transparency. And the good news? You can find Ritual at @target, too! 

Taking care of ourselves doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it’s the small, consistent habits that make us feel like we’re showing up for ourselves.

#ad My morning skincare routine has gotten a LOT s #ad My morning skincare routine has gotten a LOT simpler over the years. I’m not looking for 10 different steps. Instead, I want products that are easy to use and easily fit into my everyday routines and @CeraVe has me covered.

Here’s what I’m reaching for lately:

• CeraVe Brightening Vitamin C Cleanser
• CeraVe Super Boost Serum with 3 Essential Ceramides — definitely my favorite step!
• CeraVe Brightening Even Tone Lotion for face + sensitive areas
• CeraVe Skin Renewing Brightening Lotion SPF 30 in the am for sun protection

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that a skincare routine I’ll actually stick with is so much better than a complicated routine that ends up sitting on my bathroom counter collecting dust.

If you’re looking for a simple morning skincare routine for mature skin, skincare for women over 50, brightening skincare, or an easy daily skincare routine, this is a great place to start, and you can pick them all up at @target or on target.com.

Do you keep your morning skincare simple, or are you a 10-step kind of girl?🤔

Looking after ourselves doesn’t have to be complicated… sometimes it’s just a few little beauty rituals that make us feel our best.
 
Tonight’s nighttime beauty routine featured a few finds from QVC…
 
• Tweezerman Facial Razor & Replacement Blades for a little at-home facial grooming. I like these for removing the peach fuzz so my makeup goes on smoother. Beware, these are sharp!
 
• Beekman 1802 Milk Rx Better Aging Compress Mask (came as part of a trio) to calm and soothe my skin after I did some exfoliating with the razor.
 
• Philosophy Fragrance 3-in-1 Shower Gel & Lotion for a relaxing bubble bath and a little everyday luxury. The Pure Grace scent is clean and refreshing.
 
I love finding beauty and skincare favorites that make my self-care routine feel special, especially when I can find them at a great price and I always feel like I can count on QVC for that.
 
Have you checked out the beauty deals and sales on QVC.com or in the QVC app lately? There are so many fun finds worth browsing! You never know what little beauty treat you might discover and with the holidays coming up, they have great gift options too.

When I found out Beekman 1802 was doing a pop-up e When I found out Beekman 1802 was doing a pop-up experience at my local Ulta Beauty, I immediately added it to my calendar.

They did product demonstrations, skincare education, and mini facials, all focused on the Milk Rx line for better aging. They were handing out samples to attendees, so I brought some home to try.

Such a great experience — the kindest staff. Thank you, @beekman1802 💛🐐💛
