Contents of the June 2015 Box
1) Urban Decay Perversion Mascara (Deluxe Sample. $22.00 full size): I have been wanting to try this mascara for a while, and was thrilled to see a deluxe sample in the June BB5 box. #UrbanDecayCosmeticsAccording to Urban Decay,
Get bigger, blacker, badder lashes with our ultra-creamy, lengthening and volumizing mascara. So intense you might need a safe word, Perversion glides on and gets you sexy in one stroke. (Yet it won’t quit until you say when.) It’s insane how black it is…the purest, deepest, most intense black color imaginable.
Perversion has a creamy, full-bodied texture that’s not too dry, not too wet. This allows just the right amount of “pull” so it glides through lashes. The result: incredible control for insane lashes. Go ahead and pile on coat after coat. Want to apply more before you go out at night? No problem. Even if it’s been all day since you applied, more Perversion always means more beautiful lashes. Our formula NEVER gets brittle or clumpy.
Perversion Mascara contains Hairdensyl, a complex blend of proteins and amino acids—including marine glycogen, known to stimulate lash growth. Honey extract provides deep nourishment, sea idrolized elastine stimulates the hair follicle, and marine collagen protects.
The twisted trim on the high-tech, volumizing brush latches on to each lash to separate and define; finally, a volumizing mascara with a clean, clump-free finish. It pulls through lashes smoothly and lays down a generous amount of product. No need to wiggle the wand or maneuver it at all different angles!
2) Herbal Essences Body Wash in Body Burst (1.2 oz Travel Size): I'm always happy to get travel size body washes to test out, and to toss in my bag for out-of-town trips. Herbal Essences Body Wash in Body Burst offers an invigorating citrus scent, and I plan on trying it out in my next shower. #HerbalEssences
According to Herbal Essences,
Herbal Essences Body Burst Body Wash gives your skin a burst of citrus scent to energize your senses. Almost like a shot of espresso! Indulge in an exhilarating shower experience that you are bound to love with an invigorating burst of citrus essences.

I agree with you, that Splash That Cash palette is all that. Those shades absolutely rock, and I love them together. I'm not familiar with that brand but I'm going to look it up because I'd love that collection!
ReplyDeleteIt really is all that! I wasn't familiar with the brand either, and quite frankly it's hard to believe that you can purchase a palette of 6 great quality shadows for a mere $3.00! I agree with you, Allison– I think that the colors are gorgeous! It's definitely worth checking out the line!
DeleteThat eyeshadow palette looks great!
ReplyDeleteIt really is, and the quality is very good!
DeleteThe eyeshadows look lovely!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree! :-)
DeleteThis is such a great box - that palette is STUNNING! <3
ReplyDeleteI agree! The palette is definitely the star of this box!
DeleteOk, wow, that eyeshadow looks impressive and the Simple Micellar Water is great! I like it even more than the one from Dr.Jart!
ReplyDeleteThe eyeshadow palette was such a pleasant surprise! I have really wanted to try the Simple Micellar Water, and am so glad to hear that you think it's great. I have been wanting to try it for a long time, but sadly the sample was too little to get a real sense of how well it works on my skin :-( That's amazing that you prefer it to the one from Dr. Jart. I might just buy a bottle to try out since they included a $2.00 off coupon! :-)
DeleteThose green shadows are so pretty! I can't believe they only cost $3, wow! I have the full size Simple Cleansing Water and love it, I highly recommend!
ReplyDeleteI know! Crazy beautiful, and at a shockingly affordable price! Thank you for the Simple recommendation! I think that I will go ahead and buy a bottle– especially since they included a $2.00 off coupon! :-)
DeleteThis is one of the best boxes I've seen from BB5. I can't believe Simple couldn't part with more than a droplet of their Micellar Water though.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it really is one of their best boxes. Yeah, I was pretty disappointed by the size of the Simple sample, and the little saturated cloth was way too small to get any sense of how it worked. It really would have been so much better, and more in line with the these of the box, to have included a small TSA Compliant bottle that you could refill.
DeleteI would have been happy with this box!
ReplyDeleteI definitely am!
DeleteThis box looked great! That palette looks very pigmented!
ReplyDeleteThey really did a great job, and the palette is definitely the highlight for me! It's vey pigmented and the colors are really beautiful.
DeleteThat eye shadow palette is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Erika, it really is! I just can't believe that a palette of this quality could cost only $3.00!
DeleteI'm sorry, but they have a lot of nerve counting that Simple packet as a sample. That looks like a pull out from a magazine.
ReplyDeleteThat was definitely the most disappointing part of the box. While they did give a $2.00 off coupon to Simple the sample was too small to get a sense of how well it works :-(
DeleteThat paette is a stunner! That and the Nails Inc. polish alone make it a great box.
ReplyDeleteI agree, those are the big highlights of the box!
DeleteBB5 seems to be sending out great stuff lately, I liked this box a lot.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Norah!
