February marks the 3rd birthday for Beauty Box 5! To celebrate, they sent us an awesome assortment of goodies! Here’s what I received this month:

Marsk Mineral Eyeshadow in Vanilla Frosting - retail $22.50 0.04 oz - iridescent mineral shadow that can be used as shadow or a highlight.

Revlon Colorstay nail polish - retail $3.99 0.4fl oz - I got the shade “Velvet Rope” which is a deep red.

Absolute New York Absolute Love lip balm - retail $5 .4fl oz - Bubblegum smells like grape bubblegum, with a hint of pink tint.

Avon Big Color Eye Pencil - $3.49 .056 oz - I received Sunkissed, which is a creamy copper. Gorgeous!

GlamGlow Youthmud Tinglexfoliate treatment - $69 1.7oz - This 5ml packet should be good for one face/neck treatment. I already know I love this mask, but it’s so overpriced I’d never buy it. My friend Laura from My Newest Addiction has a great DIY version.

BB5 Bonus gift - $20 gift card to Your Minerals Swedish active mineral makeup

As you can see, Beauty Box 5 continues to be a great subscription for the price. You can purchase a monthly box for $12, $30 per quarter, or $99 for a yearly sub. If you sign up, my affiliate link is below. Thank you! <3

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?

This month’s Beauty Box 5 seemed a little disjointed to me. Not necessarily a bad thing, but usually they follow a “theme.” My box contained two of my must have beauty items, so that was great! Here’s a look at the November box, which is “Gracefully Grounded.”

Afterfeather refillable travel bottle 2oz - this TSA approved plastic bottle has a cute floral print, and will no doubt be used! retail: $8.95 for a set of 2 bottles.

DenTek Floss picks and case - We all know we should floss daily, and maybe this handy case will help us remember! retail: $2.49 4 count.

HASK Macadamia Revitalizing Shine Oil for hair - I always rave about HASK here on daydreaming beauty! They are one of my most favorite hair care brands. They have fabulous and nourishing ingredients at a great value. retail: $2.99 5/8oz vial.

Laura Ashley body butter - I received Sweet Peony which is a loud floral. A little too loud for me, so I’ll be passing this along to someone who will appreciate it. retail: $20 for a set of 6 1.75oz jars.

Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash - I love Dove’s body washes. All of the variations they have are super! My favorites are the Pistachio Cream and the Winter Care. retails: $6.49 22oz

Also in this month’s box, there was a coupon for $1 off any DenTek product and a 30% off code to Sparkles and Pop online costume jewelry and accessories store.
