Allure Beauty Box is a beauty subscription that sends 5 deluxe samples – makeup, skin, hair, accessories, and fragrance. Samples are chosen by Allure magazine editors. The new name is confusing, because what’s now known as Allure Beauty Thrills was formerly the Allure Beauty Box. This box was formerly managed by Beauty Bar, but no more.
There’s a mini magazine in every box and it’s very editorial – the Allure editors pick every product and give tips on use and why they like it. Or why you might not. The mini-mag is exactly the same as it was before.
There was a card advertising a Q & A on Periscope, but my box arrived after the fact.
Everything in the box!
Klorane Floral Eye Make Up Remover ($2) I thought I’d tried this one before but I’ve only tried the gel. A nice useful product.
Crabtree & Evelyn Verbena and Lavender Bath and Shower Gel ($6) This is a nice fresh scent and is paraben and SLS free but still nice and foamy!
Hanae Mori Hanae Eau de Parfum (67¢) Sweet and fruity, with a hint of burnt cotton candy underneath (spun sugar scent). I don’t normally go floral, but I liked this one because it’s so sweet.
L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Youth Oil ($14) Immortelle is a natural essential oil with healing benefits. It’s combined with other oils in this product to moisturize and hydrate. I was really happy for this because Immortelle products are so spendy!
Kevin Murphy Anti-Gravity Oil Free Volumiser ($7.60) Two thumbs up for any hair volumizer to test out! I believe this is a Canadian product and it’s lemony and lavendery and provides light volume.
Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipstick – Perfect Pink ($15) The booklet was silly this month – it referenced the doefoot applicator, which this doesn’t have – and I can’t find this lipstick in anything but the regular pen form. It’s more than a bit sticky for me
This was a wow box in terms of value – about $45 – and the Divine Oil is a real treat! I’m happy about the volumizer and ended up liking the fragrance (which seems like it may be a closeout item) but the others weren’t total wows for me this month. I wish I’d received a darker lip color though, the lighter pinks really tend to wash me out!
