Unboxing....Target Beauty Box December 2016 #Merry&Bright #FestiveFella #TargetBeauty #TargetStyle

For December, Target offered a Beauty Box for women & one for men. I got them both because it's only fair to get one for hubby since I get one for myself every time they are offered.

The products in the Women's Beauty Box came wrapped in red tissue paper & the theme of the box is "merry & BRIGHT". An information card is included that tells all about the products plus a coupon for $3 off of any beauty purchase of $15 or more at Target or Target.com. These are the products that came in this box:


Nivea Soft Creme (0.84 oz. sample $0.66)
Derma e Firming DMAE Moisturizer (0.5 oz. sample $3.10)
Almay Non-Oily Makeup Remover Pads (15 pads $0.90)
Covergirl Outlast Lipstick in Always Rosy (Full Size $8)
TRESemme Pre-Wash Conditioner  (1 fl. oz. sample $0.30)
TRESemme Shampoo (1 fl. oz. sample $0.20)
Modella Black & White Purse Kit ($2.95)
Goody Ouchless Headwrap and Elastic ($0.25)
Vichy Purete Thermale One-Step Cleanser* (0.5 fl. oz. sample $1.47)
(prices from Target.com)

The products in the Men's Box also came wrapped in red tissue paper & the theme of the box if "FESTIVE Fella". An information card is included that tells all about the products plus a coupon for $3 off of any personal care purchase of $15 or more at Target or Target.com. These are the products that came in this box:



Gold Bond Ultimate Refresh 360 Body Powder (1 oz. sample $0.70)
Old Spice Dirt Destroyer Pure Sport Plus Body Wash (3 fl. oz. sample $0.94)
Colgate Optic White Platinum Toothpaste in Fresh Mint (1.45 oz. sample $1.62)
Gillette Fusion Hydra Shave Gel (2.5 oz. sample $2.12)
Every Man Jack 2-in-1 Daily Shampoo & Conditioner (2 fl. oz. sample $1.20)
Old Spice Swagger 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner (1.7 fl. oz. sample $0.56)
Dove Men+Care Clean Comfort Body & Face Wash (1.8 fl. oz. sample $0.55)
Nautica Voyage Sport Cologne (0.04 fl. oz. sample vial $0.70)
(prices from Target.com)

The women's products have a value of about $18 and I paid $10 with free shipping and the men's products have a value of about $8.50 and I paid $7 with free shipping. I think both of these boxes are a good value & I think it is really cool that the women's box came with a makeup bag this time! 

Target Beauty Boxes are not a subscription box that you can sign up for so you have to be ready when they are offered because they are first come, first serve & they sell out pretty quickly. 

I try to get these boxes each time they are offered because they usually contain products that I already use or have wanted to try so I'll be watching & waiting for the next Target Beauty Box & I'll give you a heads up!

Unboxing....Play! by Sephora August 2016 #TheEyeOpeners #Sephora

This is my third Play! by Sephora box that came last week. I'm still not completely sold on this box & am trying to decide whether to cancel it before they bill me next month. I've got a few more days to think about it. I really love the beauty products that I find in the Sephora store & this box just doesn't blow me away like I had anticipated that it would.

After a long summer, refresh and recharge your beauty routine with the mascara for standout lashes, an energizing moisturizer and striking looks that will put all eyes on you."
