Beauty Fix Subscription April 2016

What Is The Beauty Fix Box?

This is a monthly subscription box that you can buy each month without a subscription at a high price or get sent monthly. They provide makeup, skin, and hair care products. They send you 6 or more products that are mostly full and deluxe travel sizes. They also claim each box provides more than $100 worth of product. 

The Subscription

Box Items: 6+ beauty products

Cost: $24.95/ month or $34.95 for one time purchase

Packaging

Everything arrives in a box.



Inside the first thing you see is a card that explains each item you have received.




And here is the rest of inside of the box :) I LOVE tissue paper in my boxes!



Products

Cotz Face Natural Skin Tone SPF 40 (.35 oz) - $4.66

Once again I have received another sunscreen in a subscription box, but I am pleased that it is above SPF 30. Upon opening it the sunscreen looked VERY dark for being "lightly tinted". However it rubs in REALLY well and definitely holds true to the "lightly tinted" claim. There also doesn't seem to be a smell to it which is quite nice! 




Bliss Fabulous Drench N' Quench Cream-to-Water lock-in Moisturizer (.17 oz) - $3.80

I am always a fan of receiving moisturizers because I am always so dry! I am not a HUGE fan of the scent of this one but it's not as strong a few moments and it seemed to work really well! So I am pleased. I just wish the sample was larger!


SmartFx Volume Extended Mascara Black (7.5 ml) - $12?

For pricing this one, it's $5.99 on Amazon and $20.00 on Dermstore so I took an average. I am not a huge fan of mascara so I can't speak on the quality but it is a full size product so I am pleased with that! I will be gifting this to my sister.


AHAVA Dead Sea Crystal Osmoter X6 Facial Serum (.17 oz) - $12.58

To be totally honest I have no idea what a facial serum even is, but it claims to reduce wrinkles. It also claims to "moisturize, heal, and de-stress". I will have to look more into this but I am excited to try something so new to me!


Perfect Formula Pink Gel Coat (.17 oz) - $8.50

This "nail polish" is supposed to be applied to the nail to help strengthen it and bring out it's natural healthy pink hue.


Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk Natural Tint (50 ml) - $6.25

My dry shampoo experiences in the past have not been great but this one looks promising. The last stuff I tried wasn't great quality. This seems to be weightless AND moisturizing so I have high hopes!


SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 (??) - $5??

This sample claims to make your skin feel rejuvenated and smooth. It's quite a tiny sample though. I can't see it lasting more than a few uses. I can't find a size amount anywhere so it makes it hard to guess the cost of it. 


Juice Beauty Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer (2 fl oz) - $45

I was very excited about this! Upon opening it did NOT smell like apples to me whatsoever. IT honestly smells like grass, which isn't my most favorite smell ever.  However it does seem to moisturize well. It's also a full sized sample! Woo hoo!!


Patchology Flashpatch Eye Gels (one pair) - $1.66

I have seen masks before but I haven't seen eye gels before. I am pretty excited to try these. A bummer there is only one pair. But it will still be fun to try.


Final Thoughts

I am curious to see if the total of this box comes out to be since they claim to have $100+ worth of product. So let's do that first.


The totals of the products:

  • Cotz Face Natural Skin Tone SPF 40 - $4.66
  • Bliss Fabulous  Moisturizer - $3.80
  • SmartFx Volume Extended Mascara - $12
  • AHAVA Dead Sea Crystal Osmoter - $12.58
  • Perfect Formula Pink Gel Coat - $8.50
  • Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk - $6.25
  • SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 - $5??
  • Juice Beauty Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer - $45
  • Patchology Flashpatch Eye Gels - $1.66
The total value of the bag came to $99.45

That is JUST under $100 and it could be because I averaged the value of the mascara and had no idea what the lipid restore was supposed to be. So I won't hold it against them. That is an amazing value for a box that is just under $25. 

What are your thoughts on this BeautyFix Box?
