Yesterday I posted pictures and descriptions of the items I received in my November Topbox and promised the same for the Flare Beauty Box $5 Add On. Well, here it is! The unveiling of the box. My treats are wrapped in pretty pink tissue with a note from Flare's beauty editors. Next is a little info sheet with a brief description and tip for each item included in the box. I absolutely love getting these - especially when one or more samples come in an unmarked jar, it definitely helps. Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Creme, 151ml Actual value of product received: $6.94 According to The Pantene website, this product: Let's start with the reason I got this box. Yes, $5 is an excellent deal for what I received (it was no mystery box, they let us know before ordering what would be shipped) but this product is my number 1 pick for best product of the year (see my Bzz campaign product review here), and to get it again was a no-brainer. Olay Ultra Moisture Body Wash with Shea Butter, 50ml Actual value of product received: $0.84 According to the Olay website, this product: I'm always up for trying a new bodywash. I've used Olay before and find them to be pretty hydrating and non-irritating. CoverGirl LashBlast Clump Crusher Mascara in #800 Very Black, 13.1ml Actual value of product received: $6.99 According to the CoverGirl website, this product: I absolutely LOVE mascara - it's my favorite makeup. Unfortunately it can also be one of the most difficult to get right. Not enough length, clumping, stink, racoon eyes, not waterproof, too waterproof, won't come off even with a chisel - the list is lengthy. I have tried some really great mascaras and although CoverGirl Exact EyeLights is among my favorites, most others I've tried by this brand have been disappointing. Let's see which way this one goes. Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream, 5g Actual value of product received: $2.50 According to the Olay website, this product: The obligatory facial cream included in every beauty box. Unfortunately, these sample sizes are usually too small to get a real idea of what the product can do. Pantene Pro-V Blowout Extend Dry Shampoo, 140g Actual value of product received: $4.96 According to the Pantene website, this product: My sister in law first recommended using a dry shampoo, as she has the same issue I do - I can't wash my hair every day because I lose so much that I'd probably be bald by the end of the year, but my hair looks gross and greasy the next day - like I haven't washed it in a week. I'm happy to try this out and see if it is as good as it's supposed to be. Any Clairol Hair Colour Product, 1 kit Actual value of product received: $6.92 According to the Clairol website, this product: I'm going to use this to get a box of the Clairol Nice 'n Easy #126 Natural Black Mahogany because I received a box to test out as a part of my most recent Bzz campaign and one box is usually not enough because my hair is so long. I was going to use just the one, but since I can get a second one free, why not? The actual value of my $5.00 CDN Flare Beauty Box Add On is (drumroll, please): $29.15. I got way more than my money's worth on a box with many items I am excited to try out.
Topbox is available as a monthly subscription for $12.00CDN per month - by invitation only. If you would like an invitation, drop me an email, I'd be happy to send you one. Add on boxes are only available to subscribers.
