Bonus Beauty Box 5 October 2014

I got a bonus box from BB5 when i signed up and it was the October 2014 box,
I liked most of the stuff in this box! I got 5 things to test out and the theme was Effortless Allure

Let's start off with the Chapstick Hydration Lock
This Chapstick has 2 sides to it. One is a hydration side and the other is a renew side. I love the ChapStick brand so i knew this would be great and of course it is! It retails at $2.99 and when mine runs out i will be buying more! #chapstickplease

Next up is the Bellapierre Cosmetics cheek and lip stain in Pink.
I really like this. The color is great and works well with my skin tone. I think that it looks better on my cheeks because you can't really tell when it is on my lips. This retails at $19.99 It is a little pricey for me but if you don't mind spending a little extra on makeup then try this out! #bellapierre

Next up is the Extend Your Beauty Cosmetic Tool
Let me start off by saying that i saw the Spatty Daddy on Shark Tank a while back so i was super excited to see that i had something made by them send to me! How cool. Now i haven't had a chance to use this but i know that its awesome because I hate wasting things and this is going to help me keep my products a little longer! YAY this retails at $5.49 for the 6 in tool. #SpattyDaddy

Next we have the Nanacoco nail polish
I am not too impressed with this. I had to use multiple coats to make it look nice. It's not opaque like i would like it to be. It retails at $3.95 I wouldn't recommend this to anybody though. #nanacoco

Last we have the  Revlon Bold Lacquer Mascara
YAY mascara. I was just about to buy some new mascara because I ran out. I'm glad i didn't! This mascara makes my eyes POP! I had no problems at all with it clumping or smudging YAY!! It retails at $7.99 #Revlon #FlashYourLash

I was very happy with this box. I can use everything that's in it and i don't have to give anything to other people which is always a plus! BB5 is $12 a month. Don't forget to get yours NOW!






Beauty Box 5 April 2015

Hey Everybody! So Beauty Box 5 had a deal where when i signed up i got this months box PLUS a random box from the past. So, this is my April box but then i will review my other box soon!
So this was April's box and the theme is Bloom
There were 5 products to test out and some coupons as well!
First we will start off with the Rave 4X Unscented Hairspray
This retails at $3.25 for a 11 fl oz. bottle. I didn't have any hairspray at home so i was excited to try this out! I curled my daughters hair and used this the keep it in place. Needless to say it worked like a charm! I would for sure buy this. #ravereviews

Next is the Lasting Smiles Passion fruit Mango Organic Lip balm and Style Essentials Twingloss
So the Lip Blam is always a plus because I always lose mine! I couldn't really tell it was passion fruit mango but it was still really good smelling and made my lips feel soft. The retail for this is $4.99 I think its a little pricey BUT part of the proceeds go to help children get life changing surgeries. #lastingsmiles
The TwinGloss smelled AMAZING and made my lips super shiny, It retails at $2.50 and i would totally buy this! I really loved the lasting shine and the smell! #Styleessentials

Next up we have the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream
So this is ANOTHER skin cream but it works well. My skin was soft after i used it. I used it right after i took my makeup off and it smelled great and made my skin feel awesome. I full jar of this stuff retails at $30. I don't see myself purchasing this in the future just because it's a little expensive but if you don't mind spending a little extra then i would totally recommend this . #firstaidbeauty

Last but not least we have the Incoco nail polish applique set
I was SO excited about this one. Probley the most excited out of everything else in the box. I love making my nails look cute. BUT i would NOT recommend these because mine are already coming off after 2 days. That totally sucks because i was looking forward to these being awesome. These retail at $8.99  I won't be buying these ever. #incoco

So that's it for April 2015. I was pretty happy with everything in my box. I am always looking to try new things so it was awesome. I would totally recommend Beauty Box 5 to everybody! It's only $12 a month and the items you get retail WAY over what you are going to pay.

MunchPak May Review

I got my very first MunchPak today!
I was so excited to get this one because it is snacks from all over the world! The one thing that sucked is that it didn't come with a card to describe what each thing was. there are some things in other languages that i had to guess what they were.. I guess it makes it a little fun

So first we will talk about the BIBI BEAR RICE CAKE
Okay, so these were so blah.. It kind of tasted like those popcorn puff things you buy in the chip isle at the grocery store.. either that or cardboard.. Needless to say my 1 year old loved them..

Next up is Cosmos Zhang Snacks
I had to do some serious research to figure out what these were! They have a little bit of a sweet flavor to them but they are kind of bland. These are from Japan! My toddler took a bite and said "ew" and my boyfriend took a bite and said it tasted kind of like noodles. 

Up next is Nucita Triangulo
This is from Mexico. There is a little stick that you can dip in Strawberry, Chocolate and Vanilla creams! I was excited to try this one but when i opened it all of the cream was SUPER hard and the little stick was stale.. So, i couldn't really try it. Disappointing. 

Next Up is the Smurfs gummy bears!
Of course I loved these because I love gummy bears. They taste like all of the other Haribo gummies.. YUMMY

Next we have the Get Up and Go cookie
This cookie has a catch. It has caffeine in it! There is the equivalent of one cup of coffee in it! The cookie was so so so soft and delicious.. I feel energized, hopefully i can sleep tonight!

Last we have MuiBon with hazelnut
This is from Mexico. So this is like a KitKat, Ferrero Rocher, Nutella Combo. seriously i loved this. I want a million of them! SO yummy!!! Very crunchy.

So MunchPak was pretty good this first time around. I would say that I enjoyed 75% of what was inside and my kids enjoyed the other 25%, The one i got was the mini which is 9.95 for 5+ items. The Original is 10+ items for 19.95 and the family is 39.95 for 20+ items. You can use the code Snackin for $2 off your first box. It is so worth it and really fun to try out!

Graze box May 2015

Okay, So Graze was so awesome and gave me a box to try because i didn't care for the last one i had.
It came in the same Easter eggs box that my daughter loved!
This time when i opened it there were cute coupons in there shaped like carrots and a rabbit. Needless to say my 1 year old son thought the carrots were food and tried to eat them....

So first off lets talk about these Banana Caramel Dippers!
The caramel sauce was yummy. The banana shortbread dippers fell apart easily and were kind of messy but they were still yummy. In this little snack pack there is 150 calories. 

Next we have the Salted Fudge and Peanut Cookie
This was also yummy, My daughter really liked this one.In this one there was baked salted peanuts, mini chocolate cookies, redskin peanuts and fudge pieces. There was 230 calories in this one. I liked the little fudge pieces. The chocolate cookies were a little different but they got gobbled up. 

Next is my FAVORITE!!! It is Cinnamon Pretzels. 
Seriously, i wish i had a huge bag of this. It is so yummy! The pretzels had poppy seeds on them and the almonds were cinnamon honey. I am still drooling over these right now. Yummm. In this pack there was 140 calories. NOT BAD

Last we have the Triple Berry Smoothie.
In this there is mini strawberries, blueberries and cranberries with chewy bananas. I liked all of the berries (especially the strawberries) but the bananas we kid of nasty. They didn't taste like bananas to me. In this pack there is 120 calories. 

So this box was mainly sweet. I enjoyed it a lot better than the other one though! 
If you want your 1st and 5th boxes free use this code 65D76M9LP I'm sure there is something for everybody so check it out!

Perky Jerky

So I opened my mailbox to see this shiny package with the label Perky Jerky on it. I was starving at the time so I was really happy, I ran home and tore open the package.
(so, so shiny!) 
I got 2 different kinds to try! Turkey and Beef. I love Beef Jerky so I knew I would love this kind (which i did) and i was hesitant about the Turkey because sometimes Turkey just doesn't taste the same. Boy was I wrong. i liked it better than the beef kind!! SO DELISH! Like I probley wont buy any other brand because this stuff is so BOMB! I wish I had more. The bags i got were .5oz I wish i had a 15oz. bag ( i don't even think they make those) 

A little bit about Perky Jerky: They are ALL NATURAL- No Preservatives- No nitrites and no artificial ingredients.  They are flavored with GUARANA. I had no idea what the heck that was so i looked it up. Dictionary.com said that it is " A shrub or woody vine (Paullinia cupana) of Amazonia whose seeds are high in caffeine and other alkaloids." Either way... its so yummy and i highly urge you to try it out. 

Now I did receive these for review purposes but seriously this is my own opinion and if you try it out you will know i am telling the truth!


Julep Maven May 2015

Ahoy Mateys! That's right. I got my May 2015 Julep Maven box today and the theme.. Set Sail. I picked what I got in my box so I wasn't too surprised but I was a little bit and you will see why!
So, this is what I saw when I opened it. A box within a box and a little baggie!  Lets Start with what was in the baggie.
Surprise! I got a bonus nail color. I thought that it was the same one I got in my last box but it's a little bit different. The shade is Connie. I like this color .. It's purple... what's not to love?
Now lets open the other box!
It was love at first sight! Okay so I got red(January), White (Brigitte) and Dark Blue (Ilsa). All of them are very opaquie, which is awesome.I tried them all out and I love them all. There was also 2 pieces of salt water taffy which my daughter ate,  
There were Nail Stickers which i thought were going to be like nail wraps so i was a little bit bummed out but i still like them. Anchors Away!

So Juelp Maven is 24.99 a month and you get nail polish and sometimes an extra like makeup. (I got Taffy and the nail stickers) There is also a code this month for 30% off of your order: SPRING30. If it's your first box you can get it for free with the code BESTVALUE
Seriously check it out and if you don't like it cancel. Easy Peesy!

Sock Club May 2015

So I was really excited when Sock Club said they would send me some socks to review! Now keep in mind that my review on this pair of socks is my OWN opinion. I will be honest in what i think about them.That being said.. Lets start!
This is what it looked like when I took it out of the package! Look at that seal! So professional!
That is an up close look. I am SO keeping this,.. for no reason other than its so pretty!
So the socks are so cute!They are Argyle and they are name the Dangerfield because he is the one who won the Masters this year! Whoo 
It also came with a letter explaining why they named it what they did and pretty much a Thank You and Enjoy. It's a nice addition because most subscription boxes don't have a nice letter like this!
So my opinion. I don't know when i will wear these. I don't golf but i do like high socks. They are so comfortable and really stretchy. I bet these would have been a good St. Patty's Day sock! Needless to say I love them and I am going to squeeze them into my wardrobe every once in while :)  (Don't judge my big feet!)

With Sock Club you can choose either Small, Medium, or Large with the sizes for the socks. They will ship to USA or Canada. Pay as you go is $12/mo, $36/3mo, $72/6mo and $132/12mo.
Our washers tend to eat so many socks so getting a new pair every month is perfect!! Check it out seriously its awesome.
