Each month BB5 curates a theme-based beauty box that features five products that range from full-size to samples. The theme of the October 2016 box is "Boss Babe Comin' Thru."

What's in the box:

Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil (Full Size. Retail $18.00): This is such a pretty highlighter pencil that is perfection in the Cupid's Bow. It can also be used to conceal blemishes and dark circles, or can be used to accentuate the brown bone or inner corners of the eyes.

This fresh and pretty neutral Highlighter pencil will brighten and visibly lift your eyes when lightly applied on the brow bone and dark circles. It can conceal blemishes and spots on light skin tones.  In addition, this multi-purpose pencil can be used to “open” the eye area by applying to the water line and inner corners of the eye. Perfect for highlighting a beautiful smile and preventing lipstick spread by applying to the Cupid 's bow and along the lip line. So many uses in just one perfect pencil! Formulated for LIGHT toned skin. #ChellaBeauty

Directions: Draw a line under the brow bone with this creamy pencil and then pat gently into place using your 3rd (“ring”) finger.

Colour Me Femme Red (Sample Vial. Full Size Retail $10.00): This smells really wonderful in the vial, and I am looking forward to testing it on my skin.

A rich chypre woody fragrance with crisp top notes of bergamot, peony and freesia on a warm heart of red fruits, violets, jasmine and carnation. The tenacious base notes of orris, sandalwood and vetiver enhance this very elegant and distinctive perfume. #ColourMe

Emery + Ivory Custom Nail Appliques (Full Size. Retail $12.00): I don't do nail art, and nail appliqués aren't something that I have used before, but these look like fun!

All your coworkers will be gawk over your gorg manicure with these custom nail appliques. These strips stretch and stick with ease, making them a fast, perfect fit for every nail shape! #EmeryAndIvory #EINails

Real Her Moisturizing Lipstick in I Define Myself (Full Size. Retail $18.00): This lipstick formula feels incredible on the lips. It glides across the lips effortlessly, deposits color evenly, and it doesn't bleed or settle into lip lines. I also really love this mauve shade.

AMLACTIN ULTRA Hydrating Body Cream (1 oz. $2.99): I am a longtime fan of Amlactin lotions and creams, and love the extent to which they are able to exfoliate dead skin cells and reveal silky-smooth skin.

Say goodbye to those dry, pesky areas! Our patented ULTRAPLEX® formula gently exfoliates and is clinically proven to deeply hydrate. Helps smooth rough, dry, bumpy skin—including dry skin associated with Keratosis Pilaris (“KP”). #AmLactin
