I liked the box overall this month. While the shadows aren’t in shades I’ll use, I will definitely pass the sample along to someone that can use it! I always like getting shampoo and body wash samples. I either pass them along to the kids to try or save them for family vacations. I’m really looking forward to trying this mascara. I love voluminous lashes, and this looks like a great brush and formula. Are you signed up for Beauty Box 5 yet?
