Juice Beauty Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer-.5oz- I don't really care for this product. I don't find it moisturizing in the slightest and it stinks. I know some people love it but this and my skin do not get along.
Oscar Blandi Pronto Texture & Volume Spray- I adore this spray. It's my favorite volumizing spray. I have thin, fine hair and this works fantastically well, giving me the oompf I want without getting sticky or greasy. I'm currently out and have been waiting for this box so I wouldn't have to buy more.
Benefit Roller Lash Mascara- Yay!! I got one! I've been wanting to try this since it's new and it's Benefit, of course. At first use, I love it!! Long, dark and glorious lashes!! Since I just used it, I still have to test it for longevity, fall out and smudgyness. It's got a weird rubbery brush but it totally works for me.
Value: $16
Value: $12
VERDICT: For $15 a month, getting a whopping $40 worth of products is pretty awesome. I've always liked the brands that Sample Society tends to send and this box really was no exception. I will never have enough of the Oscar Blandi and Malin + Goetz. My new favorite mascara might be the Benefit Roller Lash (still testing longevity) and while the color is blah on the Cargo, it's a full size lip gloss!

This is a great assortment! I got the Roller Lash in my Birchbox and it didn't work that well for me--I mean, it worked fine as a "normal" mascara, but it didn't give me the advertised curl. I'm glad that it is working well for you, though! I also am not a fan of the Juice Beauty moisturizer because of the way it smells :/
ReplyDeleteI can't say that I noticed any curling but I did like how it applied and stayed without flaking. I think there was a little clumping but not too bad and I like how it separated all my lashes. So basically like a regular mascara but better than some. I still like my Hope Girl 140 SuperLash better than anything else I've encountered. :D
