Battle of the Beauty Boxes: Beauty Bar

Received my first Beauty Bar Box and I am very happy with it.  This month's box includes Bambo Style Boho Waves (which I cannot wait to try), Murad Clarifying Cleanser (great for clearing up oily skin), a sample of Claudalie eye cream, a sample of Jane Iredale Just Kissed lip plumper (the color is a little to pink for me but I'll give a try and maybe use it on my cheeks), and lastly a small Oscar de la Renta perfume "Live in Love" which smells wonderful.  I normally shy away from perfume because of allergies, but I may be able to use this one in small doses!

My First Cravebox! Island Fever!

Today I received my first Cravebox!  It came earlier than expected which is always a wonderful surprise!
The shredded pink, white & blue paper is adorable! It felt like opening a birthday present and I was so excited!  The theme is "A Taste of the Tropics" which includes two samples of diced dried plums, Lipton tea honey to go sample, Guylian Chocolate sea shell sample, a large sample jar of Skintersection intense repair cream, and a FULL SIZE jar of Tree Hit coconut lime shea sugar body scrub!


I am very happy with this box! It has a great theme (tropics) just in time for summer with a great mix of samples which perfectly accompany the island vibe.  This box was a very well thought out and executed and I am pleasantly surprised!


Honestly, after reading prior Cravebox reviews, I just didn't have a lot of hope this box would be any good.  I am glad I took a chance with Cravebox and I hope the future boxes are just as great!
