Hey Beauty and Subscription Box Lovers! These are the subscription box products I received and tested this week. These are my honest opinions and suggestions. I have linked where you can buy the products if you so choose. I hope you learn more about the products subscription boxes offer. I really enjoy testing these products. Let me know what you think in the comments below!
PRODUCT TESTING:
LADOR PERFECT HAIR FILLER ($4.88 EACH)
I received this product (samples) in my October 2015 3B Box. This product is so awesome! I am totally going to have to get more of these. You mix the solution with equal parts water and it turns into a jelly like substance. I felt like a chemist and loved it. Now for the product itself…it is amazing. It really hydrated my hair and brought back life to it. It is such an awesome deep conditioner. My hair wasn’t greasy just so very soft. I am a huge fan of these and will continue to use them.

It’s Skin Prestige Creme D’Escargot B.B. ($15.45)
I received this product (deluxe sample) in my December 2015 3B Box. I love Asian BB creams much more than US versions. This one is amazing. It has medium coverage and helps to even my complexion. It smells very nice and lasts all day. I will definitely be buying the FULL SIZE. It is the perfect shade for my skin tone and blends in beautifully. I feel like I am wearing nothing and my skin looks so radiant. I am a huge fan.

Dermalogica Age Smart SkinPerfect Primer SPF 30 ($48)
I received this product (sample) in my December 2015 Beautyfix Box. I am not a huge fan of this primer. I didn’t notice anything amazing about it nor was I wowed. It smells very medicinal and feels very drying on the skin. I will not be using this again and will not repurchase.

LaLicious Weightless Hand Cream in Sugar Kiss ($18.99)
I received this product (sample) in my December 2015 Beautyfix Box. This is a decent hand cream. It smells very sweet…just like sugar. It also hydrates the hands very nicely. It isn’t greasy and sinks into the skin very quickly. It isn’t my favorite hand cream ever, but I did enjoy it.

Repurchase:
Missha Konjac Cleansing Puff ($5)
I received this product in my December 2015 Mishibox. I loved that this sponge came pre-moistened. It was a really nice Konjac puff. It is very gentle yet deep cleans the skin. I love using these along with my cleanser. I really feel like they help remove more oil and dirt. I highly recommend trying one if you never have.

Repurchase:
Tony Moly Delight Circle Lens Mascara ($8)
I received this product in my December 2015 Mishibox. I was really impressed with this mascara. You only need two coats and you are out the door. It is very black and adds a lot of length and volume to the lashes. The applicator makes it very easy to get every single lash. It didn’t flake off and it lasted all day. I also really like that it didn’t clump my lashes. I am really impressed with this mascara.

Repurchase:
Tony Moly Hand Cream Tangerine ($12)
I received this product in my December 2015 Mishibox. First off, how cute is this little guy?! I love the packaging so much. This hand cream smells exactly like tangerines and is very citrusy. It feels very nice on the hands and sinks in very quickly. My hands felt like silk. It isn’t greasy and is just amazing. I really love this hand cream and want all of the different versions.

Repurchase:
TOSOWOONG Enzyme Powder Wash ($12)
I received this product in my December 2015 Mishibox. I have never tried a product like this before. It is a dry pellet formula that you mix with water. You can mix it on the back of your hand or on a sponge. I used my Konjac sponge and loved the combination. It really lathers up and is very gently on the skin. It is not an abrasive cleanser at all. If you have very sensitive skin, this cleanser is perfect for you. I think it is such a fun and awesome product. It didn’t irritate my skin at all and my skin still felt clean. I just love it.

Repurchase:
TOSOWOONG Sheet Mask in Pure Deep Sea Water ($2)
I received this product in my December 2015 Mishibox. I love the packaging of this sheet mask because I love the ocean. I totally wish I was at the ocean now. I love sheet masks and this one didn’t disappointed. It felt very refreshing on the skin and plumped my skin. It was very moisturizing and fit very well. Overall, I loved it.

Repurchase:
Acure Cell Stimulating Facial Mask ($12.99)
I received this product (sample) in my December 2015 Ipsy Bag. This mask is really fun because it is a green color. You can really scare a bunch of people with this mask. It feels nice on the skin, but there is a slight tingling…nothing uncomfortable though. It only takes 10 minutes and it hardens quickly. When you rinse it off, it turns into a very rich lather. My whole sink was filled with bubbles. I have never used a mask that foams up so much. I really enjoyed it.

Caudalie VinoSource S.O.S Thirst Quenching Serum ($49)
I received this product (sample) in my December 2015 Ipsy Bag. This is a pretty good serum. It feels nice on the skin and sinks in rather quickly. It didn’t irritate my skin at all. I am not a huge fan of the heavy floral scent. However, that is my only negative. I liked this serum, but probably won’t buy the FULL SIZE.

Repurchase:
Pacifica Power of Love Natural Lipstick in Nudie Red ($9.99)
I received this product in my December 2015 Ipsy Bag. I love the color of this lipstick. It is a burnt red/orange color. It feels nice on the lips, but is a bit drying. I would definitely recommend wearing a balm underneath. However, I hate the smell of this lipstick. It also has a bad taste. I will still use it, but wouldn’t repurchase due to those factors. It also lasts a decent amount of time on the lips.

Repurchase:
California Mango Mango Magic Cuticle Oil ($9.99)
I received this product in my December 2015 Tombox. I love the smell of this cuticle oil. It smells so tropical. My cuticles need a lot of help and this oil has definitely been helping. It really hydrates the cuticles and is very easy to use. It is not overly greasy and sinks into the cuticles quickly. I will definitely continue to use this oil.

Nicka K New York Liquid Eyeliner ($2.49)
I received this product in my December 2015 Tombox. I was pleasantly surprised by this liner. I am not always a fan of liquid liner, especially with this type of applicator. However, this one is amazing. The tip is so fine and makes getting the perfect wing so easy. It is very black and dries rather quickly. It doesn’t pull at my eyes or pull product from my eyes (I hate when eyeliners do that). I could even apply it over glitter and that is a win in my book. It lasts all day and doesn’t smear on me. It really makes winged eyeliner so easy. I am a fan and can’t believe it is so affordable.

Evelyn Iona Lip/Cheek Tint ($22)
I received this product in my December 2015 Lip Monthly Bag. I used this product as a blush. It is such a small container, but a little goes a long way. I love this shade and it looks so nice on the cheeks. It adds the perfect rose flush. It lasts a long time and I really enjoy wearing it.

Full size is really expensive for what it is
MeMeMe Lipstick in Persian Pink ($15)
I received this product in my December 2015 Lip Monthly Bag. I was so impressed with this lipstick. I love this color on my lips and with my skin tone. It is actually decently hydrating for a matte lipstick. It was not uncomfortable at all and lasted a good amount of time. I have worn it a few times already. This shade will go with any eye look and I just love it so much.

Repurchase:
Jelly Pong Pong All Over Glow ($15.95)
I received this product in my December 2015 Boxycharm. This highlight looks amazing, especially in pictures (it really shows up). It is very easy to apply and adds such a gorgeous highlight. It lasts all day and this product will last me forever because you don’t need a lot. I have really been enjoying this highlighter.

Have so many other highlighters
Juara Candlenut Body Creme ($35)
I received this product in my Winter 2015 FabFitFun Box. I am a huge fan of body butters and am always happy to receive them. This is one product I actually use up very quickly. This body butter has a very strong nutty smell. I love it because I love nutty scents. If you are not a fan of nut smells, you won’t like this at all. It is so very hydrating and sinks into the skin instantly. I was really impressed with the formula because most body butters leave your skin sticky. However, this one doesn’t do that at all. My skin looks hydrated and radiant.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
I really enjoyed testing the products I received in my subscription boxes. What do you think of the items? Are your opinions the same as mine? Are you picking up any of the products? Let me know in the comments below!
Ooh, you reviewed the Enzyme Powder! It looks good — I might have to go ahead and get the Snails on a Plane box from Memebox.
Question: lol
1) do you splurge on some of these items when you run out of samples?
Comments:
1) did not know tony moly had a mascara. Lol. and at such a great price.
2) I also want to try the tangerine cream by tony moly lol
3) like you, I expected the lipstick by Pacifica to be better.
4) jealous about that jelly pong pong highlighter 🙂
Haha aw I love this comment lol!! Yes I do occasionally splurge and I would more…but since I have SO many products to use…I forget to repurchase haha.
I totally didn’t know they made a great mascara either!! I LOVE it!!! Their hand creams are amazing and too darn cute! Yeah, the Pacifica lipstick was a big disappointment…I had much higher expectations because I love Pacifica. It really is an awesome highlighter, especially for photographs!
Lol makes sense 🙂 if I had that many I would probably be stocked for a couple months too lol
I’m gonna look into some of your skin care products mentioned here. Or…. You could do a favorites for skin care…. Or…. Just tell us your skin care routine. I don’t have much of a routine. Lmao
That is awesome!! Girl you just gave me an idea for my first Youtube video!! I will do my night-time skincare routine first!! Would you like that?
Yay!!! Will you be posting your videos here too?
Yup Yup I sure will! I think that way I can list all the products and then the video will explain them more.
That would be awesome 😀
