Sample Society Box April 2013


This was my first month with Sample Society and I really loved all the samples I received. If you haven't heard of them they are a monthly subscription service for $15 from Beauty Bar which in turn is partnered up with Allure.



Apparently all the boxes come with a mini Allure magazine full of beauty tips which is nice.


And here is all the stuff I got in this box.






Okay so the box included samples of :

Borghese B Gloss

CoTZ Face Natural Skin SPF 40 

Eve Lom Cleanser and Muslin Cloth

Hanskin Hydro Sheet Mask 

Jane Tran Hair Accessory Assortment

Phyto Phytonectar Oil 

Anyways I really loved this box, I love skincare and hair products just as much I love playing with makeup :) So I plan on staying subscribed to this one for now at least.

IPSY March 2013 Review

 So I finally decided to try out the Ipsy monthly subscription bags and I wasn't too impressed with the items but i'm not going to complain because thanks to Ipsy I now have a few more items I know not to ever buy.


Apparently they have a theme every month and this months theme was The Great Escape hence the cute little bag. I love the design on it.


Next up they gave a mini GlamRX Palette. It's okay it's about the size of a credit card, personally I don't see having much use for it as far as putting eye shadows in it but I can use it for hair pins or something. 


And also the bag came with two YABY eye shadows. I put the eye shadows in the palette and added a penny next to it so you can get a visualization of the actual size.


As for the eye shadow, I heard so many good things about it but when I got my hands on the two samples I received (Seashell and Azalea Petal) they lacked horribly in quality. The pigmentation is crap. I had to swipe it so many times just to get it to show up on my skin so I can take a pic. Funny things is the colors are actually quite beautiful but not worth the effort ... at least not for me.


Anyways next up Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist, I was excited to see this since I always wanted to try it out........and now that I did I know I'll never buy it. The smell is so horrible and it leaves this stickiness behind on my skin that last a few minutes which is a few minutes too long for me. I didn't find this refreshing at all.


And the last item was LA Fresh Travel Lite Makeup Remover, I already found my HG when it comes to Makeup Remover Wipes but gave these a try anyways and it does a really good job, I had a layer of foundation plus eye makeup and it took it all off but I wasn't a fan of how heavily fragranced the wipes were.
