New Beauty Test Tube is a bi-monthly subscription that sends beauty products and innovations. It's a box where you'll find more unusual items that are rarely found in other subscriptions. I think that part is fun although this is on the pricier side (imo).
The Cost: $29.99/bi-monthly plus shipping
What You Get: A variety of the best deluxe and full-sized beauty products.
Key West Aloe Mango Body Wash- this is a deluxe sample of Mango shower gel. It's made with aloe and vitamin E which are great for your skin. Since I love a good body wash, I'll probably put this in my shower asap.
Value: $3
Biosilk Leave In Protection- This is a full size Biosilk product! I have some family members who love this brand but you know I'm not a fan of getting hair products. Boo. This has silk proteins, maracuja oil, and bamboo extract in it to help make your hair shiny and manageable.
Value: $12
Color Secrets Nail Lacquer- Blue! Shiny Blue! It's called Eternal Sunshine. Basically my second favorite color of nail polish. Right after shiny purple. Heh. This is 5-free and I'm sure it's nice.
Value: $6
Gloscience GLO pop Teeth Whitening Treatment- I'm a HUGE fan of teeth whitening. I have trays from the dentist that I use but this has no trays!
"GLO POP is designed for a fast, easy application while the gel instantly dissolves with no need to rinse. Approved for crowns, bridges, and veneers, this on-the-go whitening tool can be used anytime during the day—and it is recommended by the dentist to wait 20 minutes before eating or drinking. "
The directions say to apply lip balm then spread the solution onto your teeth and spread it around. What? No rinsing? So weird and I'm totally trying it. It uses hydrogen peroxide.
Value: $25
Hada Labo Ultimate Anti-Aging Facial Mask- A sheet mask with hyaluronic acid, peptides, collagen and vitamin E. Woohoo! It also does not contain alcohol so I'm totally using it. It has three kinds of hyaluronic acid (large molecule to the smallest molecule) so that it's sure to penetrate your skin to the deepest layers. Collagen is a moisturizer so it's nice to see but other than that it's not going to get into your skin and build up there. It's just too large a molecule to get into the layers of the skin. It's actually more effective to drink your collagen. And NBTT has that in this month's box, too!
Value: $4
Bioxidea Miracle48 Excellence Gold Hydrogel Mask- colloidal gold nano particles that give your skin a soft radiance as they optimize cell function and enhance the efficacy of all other active ingredients. Algae extract detoxifies to reduce breakouts while advanced peptides diminish wrinkles and increase firmness. Aloe very soothes redness as vitamins C and E neutralize free radicals for a healthy glow.
I've used these masks before. They're ridiculously overpriced but the ingredients are decent. This is an "extra" in the box and doesn't count toward the value. It also has a coupon on it for $25 off.
Pure Gold Collagen Liquid Beauty Supplement- Yeah! Drink your collagen! This is the kind of thing I'm talking about finding in New Beauty Test Tube that's strange and you'll never see it in any other subscription box. I'm not positive about how effective all the ingredients are when digested but this has collagen, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, zinc and other vitamins and minerals. IT's also supposed to help your hair be healthy. Yep, I'll drink to all that!
Value: $5
NeoCell Biotin Bursts Soft Chews- This might be the strangest box I've ever received from NBTT. These are fruity flavored vitamin chews. They have (obviously) biotin in them to help give you healthy hair,skin and nails. I ate one. They taste fine.
Value: $7
VERDICT: The value on this box seems low. It's more expensive than other boxes, especially with shipping and I feel like it should deliver more than just unusual products. Yes, I'll use everything, so that's nice but still...
