Jan Allure Sample Box

This months beauty box includes:

Nicole by Nicole Richie, Pantene Expert AgeDefy, Terry Firming Radian-Lift Eye Serum, Lord & Berry black eye liner,StriVectin-SD Instant Retexturizing Scrub, and Sue Devitt Lip Enhancing Gloss. 

The StriVectin-SD Instant Retexturizing Scrub, has a nice minty smell.  When you rub it into your skin, it's soft, not ruff like some scrubs can be.  It left my skin felling soft, no irritation like some scrubs can do.  My face was a little tight after it dried, but after an application of my moisturizer and it was fine. You only apply this 2 times a week, so the sample in the box will last for server months of applications.

Sue Devitt Lip Enhancing Gloss it GREAT, I got some many compliments on it.  Love the brush applicator.  There is a small amount tingling when you first apply it, but not too bad. I love this gloss if I were to do a January faves, this would be one of them! Love it.

Nicole by Nicole Richie, is a very musky scent.  If you like musk it's a great scent, it was just too heavy for me, I like lighter fresher scents.

The Pantene expert AgeDefy, I didn't try this product at all because it wasn't a product I felt was made for my hair type.  I wear my hair natural most of the times. 

Lord & Berry black eyeliner, I have to say is the BEST kohl eyeliner I've used.  For some reason every one I've tried tends to end up under my eye at the end of the day.  NOT a hot look.  But it stayed in place all day long.  Another product that would have made my January Faves if I had a list. :)

Last but not lest, the Terry Firming Radial-Lift Eye Serum, I can't really give a review on this product at this time.  I did use it most of the month, well the 15 days I had it.  But I don't think that is long enough for a review on an eye cream.  Plus, I ended up with a sinus infection, which comes with puffy eyes in my case. :(

I have to say that over all this month I was very happy with my Allure Sample Box! It was a $15.00, well spent!

I just got an email that my Feb box is on it's way, let's hope it just as great. 

I'm sorry...

I'm so sorry that I have not reviewed the Nov products nor posted anything for Dec.  I have received both beauty boxes for Dec.  But with the holiday's I have not been able to write a review for either.  So I will be starting my reviews on the beauty boxes once I receive my Jan. boxes.

Have a safe and beauty holidays and a safe New Year.  Talk to you all in 2013! I look forward to it and can't wait!
