May 2017 was a good month with five full size products and one bonus sample! 


Summer Date Night is the theme behind this latest Beauty Box 5.  If you are unfamiliar with this beauty box subscription, then you are missing out on the fun way to shop and often find some great products that you might never have ever heard before.

Each month Beauty Box 5 sends a box with five full and sample size makeup, hair and skin care, nail polish, beauty tools and fragrances.  The cost is $12.00 per month with  free shipping in the USA, but $3.00 extra if you are in Canada.

May 2017 happened to be a really good month with the beauty stash that arrived in my green box.  Let me show you what I found.


Beauty Box 5 May 2017


1.  Cougar Beauty 24 Hour Liquid Lipstick (Full Size)----------------------------------$12.99
2.  Jersey Shore Cosmetics Mongongo Lip Conditioner (Full Size)-----------------$10.00
3.  Jelly Pong Pong Bare Necessities Highlighting Pencil (Full Size)---------------$17.95
4.  Daily Concepts Exfoliating Body Scrubber (Full Size)--------------------------------$5.00
5.  Nanacoco Jumbo Eye & Lip Pencil (Full Size)------------------------------------------$5.50
6.  De La Cruz Arnica Salve (Sample of 0.12 oz.)------------------------------------------$0.35


Total Approximate Value:   $51.80!


The Cougar Beauty 24 Hour Liquid Lipstick was flattering.  The color was deep pink-mauve called Mulberry. The finish I got was matte and had wonderful staying power.

The Jersey Shore Cosmetics Mongongo Lip Conditioner came in a delicious vanilla coconut cream flavor.  It’s all natural and makes dry lips feel good.

Jelly Pong Pong Bare Necessities Highlighting Pencil was from a brand that I never tried before.  However, this product was ideal for accenting areas with its gorgeous pigment and smooth blending.

The Daily Concepts Exfoliating Body Scrubber is something that comes in handy.  This sponge has two sides with two textures from gentle buffing to more vigorous scrubbing.  

As to the Nanacoco Jumbo Eye & Lip Pencil, I was disappointed in the choice of color that landed up in my box.  Mine happened to be a bold deep green that was somewhat darker than a pickle that I would never wear.  This will go to my neighbor’s teen daughter who goes in for that wild sort of thing.

The De La Cruz Arnica Salve is helpful when you get a fresh bruise.  I didn’t run into anything yet, but I do that once in a while when I move the furniture around.  

In my opinion, May 2017 was a vast improvement over the previous month.  I loved it all except that one eye & lip pencil and only because of the shade.  Have you tried this beauty box subscription out yet?  If not, I suggest check out Beauty Box 5!
