September Sample Society

Hello beauties!

September Sample Society's Box has dropped and it is great! It's been a lucky few months of beauty boxes because it's just been one superb box after another. This month's box features a beautiful vintage style hair piece from Deepa Gurnani and a four-step skin care regimen. Because good quality skin care can get so expensive, I am always so thankful to get skincare items in my beauty boxes. For fifteen dollars a month, Sample Society really blew it out of the park for me.



1. Suki Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser (full size $32.95)-This adorable citrus scent face scrub was fun to use and did a good job at exfoliating my skin. It's actually not harsh on your skin and it smells like lemon candy.

2. Elemental Herbology Facial Glow (full size $64)- After washing your face with the sugar scrub you put on this peel to help reveal a glowing complexion. I left it on my face for four minutes then rinsed it off. My skin felt sooo soft and smooth and I love this product. Perks? You only have to use it once a week.

3. Murad Age Reform Rapid Collagen Infusion (full size $78)- Fast acting, multi-tasking formula fights wrinkles and loss of resilience by promoting healthy collagen and hydration levels. Immediately restores a more youthful appearance. I have been looking for a new serum to rotate into my skin care. After using this serum my skin looked a bit firmer after a few hours.

4.L'Occitane Immortelle Precious Face Cream (full size $58)- Yesss! A L'Occitane product in my box. This face cream was rich and creamy and also had a lemon scent. It left my skin hydrated and smooth. I actually love L'Occitane skin care.



How beautiful is this Deepa Gurnani Marquise Flower Clip? It's beautiful art deco style reminds me 1920's Great Gatsby style. If I ever needed an inspiration to do my hair, here it is! It also retails for $40 normally, wow. I also like it because it's easy to clip into your hair, it's just a simple bend clip that snaps into place easily.



All Sample Society boxes come with easy instructions on how to use the products. I love how high quality the products all are.

August Sample Society Box

1. Korres Cherry Lip Gloss in 33 Natural (full size $17)- Yayy! I was so excited to get a Korres product in my box because I love natural beauty products. The lip gloss smells like cherry Starburst to me and the color is a smidge darker than my natural lip color, making it a very good every day sheer lip gloss. The texture is a bit sticky. Overall, I really like this lip gloss and the next time I go to Sephora I'm going to try out a few more colors.

2. Jane Iredale PureLash Lash Extender & Conditioner (full size $16.50)- Ok, I can always use a lash booster. This one is pretty good it gave my lashes more volume and kept my mascara from falling out. I'm not sure if I would specifically go out of my way to buy it because I am so happy with my Great Lash mascara, but it's pretty good!

3. Dr. T's Supergoop! City Sunscreen Serum SPF 30 (full size $42)- Hmmm, I feel half half on this product. I love how this sunscreen contains antioxidants and is good for your skin. I like how lightweight it is as well. The only thing that bothers me is that it melts into my eyes a few hours later which causes them to sting. Because I normally don't wear makeup I need a sunscreen that will stay completely matte on my face for hours. For that reason I probably will not purchase this product.



4. Dr. Hauschka Cleansing Cream (full size $26)- Oooooo! A Dr. Hauschka product! I've been seeing this line in Germany for so many years but I haven't really picked up much from his line. This cleansing cream is super gentle and good for sensitive skin. It comes out in a paste and you're supposed to roll it onto your skin and then wash off. It smells like a mixture of apples and roses, very soft and pleasant. I would definitely buy this product again.

5. Brad Ultra Peel (full size $175)- An exfoliating gel without exfoliating beads? Whaaaaat? This was the most interesting product I received in my box this month. It's a clear gel that exfoliates your skin without having to physically scrub it. After using it my skin looked smoother and cleaner than before. I have to admit the price tag is a bit too scary for me, but for those who can afford it it's quite good.

This was an awesome month's box from Sample Society and I was really pleased with everything inside. I can't wait for next month's box! Thank you for reading and I really hope you enjoyed this post.

June Sample Society Box

Hi everyone! My June Sample Society Box has come in the mail and it's a great value box. Last month's box was underwhelming for me, but this month's box has lots of awesome stuff, including a small candle! Let's look at what was inside.



1. Stila Cosmetics Lip Glaze In Apricot (full size $22)- This lip gloss looked so pretty in the tube I didn't even want to try it. Mmmmmm it smells like apricot candy! It smells so good and juicy. The color on me pretty much looks clear with a tiny bit of shimmer. The texture is sticky.

2. Diptyque Eau Moheli (full size $98)- Diptyque's exclusive summer scent hits all the right notes: spicy, floral and green thanks to ylang-ylang, black currant, pink peppercorn and pachouli. Although, I'm not a huge perfume person myself, Diptyque makes wonderful perfumes. This one in particular reminds me of the gardenias my grandma plants in her backyard. If you're looking for elegant, floral, and classic scents, Diptyque is the way to go.

3. Philosophy Hope in a Jar (full size $40)- I've always seen this at Sephora and wanted to try it, but I never took the plunge. So when I saw it in my box I was pretty excited. This moisturizer was really lightweight and absorbed super fast into my skin. It had an interesting smell. At first, it smelled really chemical, but on closer inspection it kind of smells like licorice. I'm not a big fan of the smell to be honest. The product itself is pretty good. It doesn't keep my skin as tight as my other products, but it does a nice job of brightening up my skin.

4. Murad Age Reform AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser (full size $36)- Polish away dullness and locked-in impurities with Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser, which utilizes a trio of gentle exfoliating acids. I really liked this lightweight cream cleanser. It had small exfoliating beads in it and it felt so gentle on my face. It says for optimal results to use it 2-3 times a week.



5. Illume Desert Tulip Tin (full size $22)- I'm sooo excited I got a mini candle in my box this month. Isn't it pretty? It has a light floral scent with notes of red tulip, raspberry, and musk. These would make awesome gifts for girlfriends. The mini ones are $9 each! I wouldn't mind if Sample Society sent me a candle every month. :)

I was super happy with this months box. I hope the next one will be just as great! Beauty boxes have opened me up to so many great items that I would have never tried on my own. I am really loving them. If you'd like to sign up for a box, you can do so here and enter the code: STAT4718 to get 20% off your first order.
