beauty box 5 contents for February 2015 ♥


My February beauty box 5 is here.


A first look.
This month's theme is "hooray!"
It also happens to be bb5's 3rd year anniversary.


Info card.
I noticed they started labeling which items are full size or not.
That's very helpful!


I'm already liking what I see so far!
The past few months have been...well, less than stellar. 


Freeman Beautiful Body, Body Wash - cucumber, melon & ginseng
This is actually a decent sized packet.
I could easily get a few washes from this.
I love cucumber melon scent so I look forward to using this.
My Sample Value $2.99


Revlon Colorstay Nail Enamel - color *Bold Sangria*
I like Revlon nail polishes.
The color is kind of 'gothic' to me. 
I'm already pale so I think wearing this will make me look more pale.
It's a perfect color for halloween though!
My Sample Value $3.99
(Full size value $3.99)


Absolute New York Love Lip Balm - *Strawberry*
Wow, so many lip products this season!
I have a couple lip balms open right now but one of my favorites is running low.
I might replace it with this one.
It smells like, you guessed it, Strawberries!
My Sample Value $5.00
(Full size value $5.00)


Marsk Mineral Eyeshadow - *Vanilla Frosting*
This sample is teeny tiny! But it's actually full size, and costs $22.50.
Wow!
I swatched it and it's so pretty--a very shimmery white/pearl color.
Will definitely be wearing this one.
My Sample Value $22.50
(Full size value $22.50)


Avon Big Color Eye Pencil - natural vibe
Color pencils are nice because they are super easy to apply.
This color is so light and pretty much matches my skin tone that you can't see anything on my lid.
I might use it as a highlighter around my eyes.
My Sample Value $3.49
(Full size value $3.49)


$20 Gift Card - yourMinerals
We all received a $20 gift card to yourMinerals.
I checked out the site and they offer an array of eye make-up.
All, if not most, in powder form. (Just like the Marsk eyeshadow)
I may make a purchase, considering most of their products are $21 and the gift card is for $20.
I'll probably have to pay for shipping though. Still a great deal.

Overall, I like this box!
It's so much better than the last few...I was starting to regret my subscription.
I'm not sure that I'll renew when my subscription is up though.
Too many bad months versus good months.
A little more consistency would be nice...going forward I hope they keep getting better!
The total value of this month's box (roughly) comes to $37.97
