Beauty Box 5 - May 2014

Here is my review for the items received in the Beauty Box 5 for May 2014.  I misplaced the card that came with the box, I apologize.  I am happy with most of the products I received this month.

HELLO by Harry Prince:  This is a very fresh fragrance with meyer lemon, mandarin, forsynthia and plumeria.  Great for this time of year.  A very light scent.  For some reason the chemistry in my skin does not hold fragrance long.  I usually have to buy oils or when I go buy perfume or cologne I have to get the bath items, lotions and sprays to layer the scent.  That keeps it on my skin longer.  I may have to look into purchasing this in a larger bottle and will if it comes in a lotion or bath products.

BAN Total ReFresh Cooling Body Cloths:  These are great for this time of year.  Especially if you are in a humid climate, like me.  Put these in your bag when you go off to the beach, the pool or any outing.  When you start feeling a bit "sticky" from the heat, wipe yourself off with one of these.  They are large and soft and leave your skin refreshed and lightly scented.

Masker Aide facial mask:  I have not used this yet.  I got a mask in a previous Beauty Box and I really liked it.  I will get back to you on this product.  It is a full cloth mask.

h20+ Marine Cleansing Gel:  I have gotten quite a few products from this line from Beauty Box.  Some I really liked.  This one, unfortunately, I did not.  It says that it "foams away impurities".  When I used this product, there was no foam or lather.  It is a gel with a few microbeads in it.  I like products that give some type of lather and this fell flat.  It cleaned my face alright, but the foam is non-existent.

CATTIVA Retractable, Waterproof Eyeliner:  I really like this eyeliner.  It goes on very smooth.  I have noticed that if I do not use a primer, it will transfer.  I always use a primer which makes it last without fading or transferring.  Since it is a retractable liner, it is self-sharpening.  I have used AVON eyeliners for many years and love the self-sharpening aspect.  This eyeliner meets my standards and will look into purchasing it again.

I hope you enjoyed this review.  Other than the cleansing gel, I liked all the other items.  I can't wait to see what will be in the next box.  Please check out the video below for more info.  Thanks for reading and watching.
