My last Walmart beauty box for this year is here!

Disclaimer: I was not sent any of these products for free. Everything mentioned was purchased by me. I am not being paid for my opinions. These are all of my honest opinions. Post does contain affiliate links.
 
I check this little card to make sure I got the correct season's box and not a late one.

Loreal Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Lotion in Medium-Natural Tan
 
I'm not into tanning, so I don't plan on using this and will find it a new home.

ACT Advanced Care Mouthwash in Clean Mint
 
I am currently using another sample of this same ACT mouthwash that I received from Pinch Me, but once that is done I will start using this.

Revlon Ultra HD Lipstick in 875 Gladiolus
 
I received this same lipstick from a Target box that I posted about here so I will be giving this one away.

Aussie Mega Hairspray
 
I am not a hairspray type of a girl, but when I do decide to use one, I guess I will have this to try.

Schick Hydro Silk Disposable Razor
 
I have mentioned on this blog a few times that I prefer creams over razors to remove hair, but when I do get razors in the mail, I do use them to review which is what I plan to do with this one.

Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant Deodorant and $1 off coupon
 
This is a nice travel size to keep in handbags for days that one forgets to put deodorant on before running out of the house.
 
Nivea Extended Moisture Body Lotion
 
I think I have received a few samples of this product, so I will just keep holding onto them for later use.

Crest 3D White Brilliance System and $2 off coupon
 
I am using a more affordable option to whiten my teeth, but this would be good to use before a special event.
 
Biore Charcoal Self-Heating 1 Minute Mask and $1 off coupon
 
I have used this product before, but will try it again to refresh my memory on what I thought of this.

Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer and $1 off coupon
 
More body moisturizers to save for later use!

Julep Maven Spring 2015 Welcome Box


I got an email from Swagbucks a few days ago about an offer from Julep Maven. Basically, any newcomers who join the subscription service can get the welcome box for free (just pay for shipping) AND 800 Swagbucks using a promo code!!! (I plan to do a post on Swagbucks in the future iA.) The points really got me so I decided to finally join Julep.

I don't think this offer expires, but the items you get in your welcome box might be different and this free offer is only available to those new to Julep. If you are interested in trying Julep products and want in on the offer from SB, just join Swagbucks here, add the Julep welcome box found here, and type in the promo code SWAGBUCKSFREE once the welcome box is in your cart on julep.com. You should only be paying for shipping and the 800 SB should be added to your Swagbucks account in a few minutes.

Here are the products I got!



Everything came in a cute little box that kept the products from breaking. The box is a little too bulky for what is inside plus the box was full of crinkled papers which can be a hassle to clean up. These are just minor issues though.


I like these colors in the reverse order shown in the picture above. So the purple is my first favorite, then pink, and finally the blue.

The colors in my Spring 2015 Welcome box (from left to right) are Shelly, Vicki, and Flora.


Here are some swatches of the colors on a clear nail wheel. All of these are just 1 coat! These colors are opaque on the first application, but I almost always do at least 2 coats on my nails. I actually don't have these exact colors which I was happy about.

 
I think this is a cute idea that Julep already had a way to add the colors to the top of each polish. This way, if they are standing on a rack or in a case, the colors can be easily seen without taking the polishes out.
 

Just to compare the amount, these Julep polishes have .27 oz. or 8mL of product while a Maybelline Color Show polish has .23 oz. or 7 mL. This isn't a problem for me since it does take me a long time to completely finish a bottle of polish.  
 


A nude/pink lip gloss in Graceful was also included in my box. It is nice, but this color won't do anything for my lips :(
 
Final Thoughts
Overall, I think this box was a nice addition to my collection. I honestly don't plan to keep the subscription since I have way too MANY nail polishes, but I did want to try something from the Julep brand after seeing it EVERYWHERE and couldn't turn down the offer. If you are into (mostly) nail products and don't mind spending around $24.99 per month, then Julep might be for you.

Walmart Winter 2014 Beauty Box

Here are the goodies I got in my 2nd beauty box from Walmart. To learn more about this subscription program or to see what I got in my 1st box, please click here. If you would like to sign up to receive your own box, please click https://beautybox.walmart.com/.

By the way, if you are a parent, expecting a baby soon, or need gift ideas, Walmart also has a baby box. For more info on this box, please go to https://babybox.walmart.com/

Disclaimer: I wasn't sent these products. I paid for them myself.

Let's get digging!

Again, the Walmart box came wrapped in plastic so the box wasn't dirty and can be reused!


You will know what season's box you received because it will say it on the included card inside.
 
I received 2 samples with coupons included. I have thought about buying the Maybelline powder, so I can try that now.

Can't have enough face wipes in my opinion. I wonder if this 10 pack of Olay fresh effects makeup removal wet cloths is full size?! 

These are generous sample sizes of Loreal Oleo Therapy shampoo and conditioner. They smell good and since I have been into sulfate free hair products, these are perfect. Can't wait to try them!
 
This Jergens BB Body skin cream smells nice and is a good sample size to carry in bags. It does have a slight tint, but even on my medium/ brown skin tone, it is not a problem.


I wish the Maybelline lipstick in Maple Kiss came wrapped. The color is nice though and I have bought some to try in the past with no success. Now I have my own to play with!
 
Final thoughts
Overall, I am enjoying my Walmart boxes. I love the amount of products I received in both, the variety, and the price is good too. I plan to keep my subscription to this beauty box and can't wait for my next ones!
 
Let me know in the comments below what you think of Walmart's beauty box or what you have received in yours!
