Target Beauty Box- Review

Hello everyone! Welcome to another Jaqtastic Review.  Things have been hectic on my end (getting evicted)- so with that, it will take longer to send out reviews.

Anyways, I recently, or rather a while back, received my Target Beauty box.  This was only $5 + Free Shipping, and was a new thing Target decided to try out. Needless to say, I think they started off pretty well!

The best part? The box is great for re-use!

Overall Contents. For 5$, this was a hit!

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo & L'Oreal magic skin beautifier B.B. Cream -Samples

Opinion: Did not get to try either of these.  Besides, I never tried a BB cream before- what is the point of those anyways?

Gillette Venus and Olay Razor Pack- Full size!

Opinion: Received something pretty similar from the same company, in a previous Influenster box. With that said, I really love the Venus Blades! This one is scented, and smells like berries and sugar- super sweet.  For some reason though, unlike the other blade, this one was more prone to cut me.  This is most likely due to the scented part, which bulge o

Fekkai Glossing Cream- Travel Size

Opinion: I LOVED This cream! I am pretty hesitant when it comes to using products for my hair (my hair is too thin and sensitive), however my worries were put to rest upon using this.  It smells magnificent and gives off a natural polished shine on the ends of your hair, and all around.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips- Full Size!
Opinion: Passed this off to a friend, however I have heard many good things about this brand.

So there you have it! Was it worth it? Why yes it was! I felt like the Fekkai Cream and the Venus blade made the box. They are my new favorite items to use.

*NOTE: I am suddenly aware of how my older posts have no pictures anymore :/ Not sure what happened there, as I did not delete them. Weird.*

New Deal Alert! Target Beauty Box- 5$!

Hello Everyone! So I recently found out* that Target is starting something akin to a beauty subscription box! For just 5$ + Free shipping, you'll get 5 premium sized items, which will be delivered about 4-6 weeks AFTER the sale. 

"Try on and try out some of our beauty faves. The Beauty Box by Target boasts beauty, skin care and nail care brands you already know, and a few that may be completely new to you. Shipping is included, plus each order includes a special offer to keep you looking fab while staying on budget. Orders ship in 4–6 weeks."

Now, speculations are going around about the possible items that will be in the beauty box, based on the survey they send you after purchase.

What might be in box:

• La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo
• Fekkai Glossing Cream
• Gilette Venus and Olay Razor Pack
• L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifier B.B. Cream

There you have it! If you want it, you better start buying now! This is only available to the first 20k people, due to it being a new thing. (: These will surely go by fast!

I'm excited to receive this! Target is actually trust worthy, and the items seem rather valuable for the cost of the box.

Gillette Venus Embrace

Gillette Venus: Click here to go to Website
Great Feature: Any Venus blade refill fits with ANY Venus razor handle! How great is that? (: You can Mix & Match to find the PERFECT Venus for YOU.

Hello everyone! Welcome to another Jaqtastic Review! This is another product that was featured in the Cosmo Voxbox by Influenster. This is the Venus Embrace + Venus Olay.
The card that came in the Voxbox reads:

"Venus: $3.50-$4.50 per month for blade refills.

Gillette Venus Embrace: Venus Embrace blade refills provide an ultra-close shave with five blades that hug curves to get virtually every hair. Available in 4- and 8- count packages

Venus & Olay Razor: Venus & Olay blade refills feature Olay Moisture Bars that contain skin conditioners to help lock in moisture and with every smoothing stroke, Venus’ five blades provide an ultra-close shave. Available in 3-count packages."

So first off, I have never tried a Venus Razor product before. Which I regret JUST finding out about! Usually I buy disposable razors out of convenience, and it being cheap. However, after trying out this product, I realize that spending a bit of cash is probably worth it.

I received this product just in the nick of time- perfect to try out right before my Yoga class- sweet! I read online that this product didn't need shaving cream or shaving gel, which was a relief because, lo and behold, I ran out of it!

Still, I felt myself getting weary over the idea of using a razor without any shaving product. I wasn't the most graceful creature on this planet, especially when given a Razor! Golly, how many times in the past had I cut my knees, and ankles over a accidental slippage?

In any case! At first I slowly ran this over my leg. So far so good. I took it a step further and began pretending my Venus Razor was some racing car. ((: Despite using this quickly over my legs, I didn't find any sort of scratch on me! The best part? My legs felt super smooth afterwards! Ahhh, I love this! I also love how it doesn't leave as much stubble as the other razors I use. Which is plus, because I hate looking as if I failed at shaving!

In this VoxBox, I also received the Venus & Olay blade refill.

This blade is said to provide your skin with even more moisturizer! I can say that this will also be another perfect blade for me since I tend to get dry skin a lot- so any bit of moisture helps!

Overall I would give this product 5 perfect stars. I love it, and I recommend it to any person who is tired of looking like a bloody mess, straight from a horror movie, after cutting themselves with a razor (: Do try it out!


*Note: I received this product complimentary to test through Influenster’s VoxBox program. *
