Now, for the Blush Mystery Beauty Box.
This box is $25 a month plus tax. They guarantee full size and deluxe sample products. I am almost to my year mark with this box, and honestly may cancel soon. Even though it is advertised to be a mix of hair, skin, and makeup....it is mostly lip and skin products. I have a bag of skin creams and soaps in my bathroom that I haven't even touched yet. It also seems that as they have gotten more popular- the quality and care has gone down. My past three boxes have all had an issue- missing items, dried out items, and a hair spray that an employee used the spray top to poke a hole through the seal before mailing (unfortunately, they didn't screw it on all of the way and I ended up with a sticky mess that made me have to toss most items). On the plus side, this box has consistently had a worth of over $100 (though one box had most of the worth via one item, so it was a small box). Blush also includes 2 bonus packet type samples with each order.
*LeEdge Exfoliator. Honestly, I thought that this was a quack item. However, it works very well. I use it on my feet in the shower and was disgusted at how much ick came off.
* Klorane Hair Mask with Desert Date. I have not tried this yet, but usually the hair masks that they send are phenomenal.
*Harmonized Digestive Water. Yes, you read that correctly. It is literally water that has had sound waves pass through it. It says that if you add a few drops to a drink daily it will help digestion and other issues. Unless the chemical makeup of water is changed- I hope no one actually spends money on this.
*Jane Iredale Just Kissed Lip Plumper. This is meh. The actual lipstick part feels cheap and is coarse due to the shimmer in it. As for the plumping action- that works due to the cinnamon in it. If you are not a cinnamon fan- do not pick this up. Actually, I would only recommend this product if they released it as a balm.
*GoldFaden MD WakeUp Call Eye Cream. I have not tried this. I have literally 6 other eye creams to use before this.
*Glytone Hydrate Eyecream. Blush loves to give away this brand, and honestly I do like everything I have tried from them- which means I will probably like this too. However, it is down at the bottom of my eye cream list because of how many I have gotten from blush.
My packet samples this month were two Cetaphil products, a cleaners and moisturizer for sensitive skin. I will be handing this on.
So, there you go. Blush is a wonderful box because you get your monies worth....but it gets old quickly. I will be holding out until April as that will show me if they do anything for their anniversary, my anniversary with them, or if they do anything for birthdays.
