My Final Two Allure Beauty Boxes ~November & December 2016~

Info: I wrote this mid-December. I know I'm a terrible blogger Because I'm lazy and don't particularly care about this box anymore November and December will be combined. We're waist deep in the holiday season and I'm feeling cheerful, but not cheerful enough for me to write two separate posts. Plus neither of them are that exciting. So here we go the last two months of Allure. November- Party Central Red Flower Icelandic Moonflower Moisturizing Body Lotion (Full-size $26): This smelled like a very heavy floral, it kind of smelled like lilac's, but not enough that I wanted to throw it across the room. It was very thick though, I had a hard time getting it out of tube, but nothing a couple of shakes couldn't fix. It was a decent lotion, but I was happy to get rid of it. I'm picky when it comes to body lotion. Final Grade: C+ Bulgaria Omnia Crystalline (Full-size $82): Alright, this time around I knew how to open the bottle. I liked the coral...

Season's Best ~October 2016 Allure Beauty Box~

Ahh fall, otherwise known as when company's actually out the good stuff in their boxes. That's right, you get the good stuff September-January. That's how they hook ya and then keep you wanting more. That's right I have been around the subscription box block and know the drill. With that being said, Allure did well this month. Not everything was a win, but I would say the box as a whole got a solid final grade! Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair Deep Conditioning Mask (Full-size $36): This was a product I had actually already owned and I'm not gonna lie I rather enjoy it. It's kind of a strange mask, at least to me. You leave it on anywhere from 5-10 minutes and it somehow soaks into your hair and doesn't take long to wash out. Leaving you with luxurious hair all in the time it takes you to soap up and nair your legs. I agree that it isn't thick, but the floral fragrance is nauseating to me. It doesn't even smell like flowers it more smells lik...

Another New Subscription Box Review: June 2016 Allure Beauty Box

Yes, yes I know another box. I'm sorry I can't help myself. I like mini things and I like to have a lot of them. I am a beauty hoarder. Until there is meetings for it I will not admit my addiction publicly, just on here. Back to the box, Allure is a newly branded beauty box (formally Sample Society) that has been around for quite sometime. Before they got a makeover mid-2015 Allure was known for being a more expensive option ($15 a month) and sending out really really tiny samples from the same collection of brands. As an avid stalker of MySubscriptionAddiciton.com I can tell you that they have gotten a lot better.  So when a round of spoilers came out in April for the May box I had to have it! Apparently I wasn't the only one with that idea because they oversold that box. I was then told (after I contacted customer service twice) that I was to be getting the June box instead. I'm not going to lie the initial spoilers for this month did not wow me and I was regret...
