Tell Me About: Walmart Beauty Box

I'm starting a new segment I'm calling "Tell Me About...Tuesdays". Every Tuesday, I will be telling you about a site that I love, a product I'm excited about, or a brand that I can't get enough of.

To kick the segment off, I'm going to be telling you about the Walmart Beauty Box. It's a new box that Walmart is putting out 4 times a year, and all you pay is $5 for shipping. You do have to subscribe to receive them and there isn't the ability to skip, but $20 for a year is pretty good and quite affordable. Especially after you see what's in it. You can sign up here.

From what I can tell, there are 2 possible boxes this season, and it looks like they are based on age.

Here's what I got in my box:



CoverGirl Glowing Nights Glosstinis Nail Polish in After Dark (full size) $2.97

At first I thought this was sample size, but after looking at the website it's the full size. It seems everyone who got the same box I did could've received any of the colors.











L'Oreal Paris Glossy Balm in Pink Me Up (full size) $6.97

It's a bit too pink for every day wear but it can be dressed up.





















Secret Clinical Strength Completely Clean Clear Gel (full size) $11.97

This alone is more than twice the cost of the box, and (hopefully) everyone wears deodorant.

That's all of the full size samples, but if you've been doing the math, those are worth $21.91. So clearly the box is worth the shipping.




















Dove Advanced Series Oxygen Moisture Shampoo, Conditioner, and Pure Care Dry Oil Nourishing Hair Treatment (sample size)

These smell AMAZING!

















Nicki Minaj Pink Friday Eau de Parfum Spray (sample size)

Eh. It doesn't smell terrible.


























L'Oreal Paris Youth Code Pore Vanisher (sample size)

Haven't tried this yet, but it says it reduces the look of pores in one month. Clearly there isn't enough here for a month of use, so I'm not sure how much of the effectiveness I could judge from the sample.



















Neutrogena Nourishing Long Wear Makeup (sample size). I couldn't find the exact match for this on Walmart's website so it must be super new.

It's nice that they send you the palette so you can decide what tone you are before you buy. One of the benefits of being super pale is that I just always choose the lightest color they carry and it's usually a match.

So that's it for the box. Hopefully you find this new segment useful. If there's something specific you've seen in one of my previous posts that you'd like to know more about, or you've discovered something fun that you think might be up my alley, let me know and I'll try to feature it in an upcoming Tell Me About Tuesday segment!

Happy Shopping!
