New Beauty Test Tube March 2014

New Beauty Test Tube

Price: $29.99 plus $8.95 shipping

Ships out: Every other month

 First Look!

Bioxidea Miracle 48 Gold sheet mask There were two versions of this mask that you could have received. The Gold Version (above) or the Diamond version. This can be used as a regular mask or placed in the bath to mix with the water as a body treatment. I received another version of this mask in my Fab Fit Fun Winter 2013 tube. 


 Simple cleansing facial wipes travel pack of 7 wipes 


FULL SIZE Professional Solutions triple action vitamin c antioxidant serum

2 fl. oz. It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In in Lite I received the Keratin version in the New Beauty Test Tube September 2013 tube and the same version in the New Beauty Test Tube July 2013 tube. Normally I would be pretty upset that I'm receiving this in so many of these tubes. But I like this product and I just ran out of my leave in, so I don't need to buy anymore- by just going through all these samples. 


0.5 fl. oz. YBF Beauty Perfect Prep Face Primer

0.5 fl. oz. Glam Glow 'Youthmud' Tinglexfoliate treatment. I love getting to try out these masks. I received a sample of the Supermud Clearing treatment in my January 2014 Sephora Haul.  I really liked the Supermud version, so I'm excited to try out this version.


Grande Lash-MD mascara in black This product has a special ability to look both cheap and expensive, modern and stuck in the 90's.

0.4 fl.oz. Philosophy 'hope in a jar' daily moisturizer


FULL SIZE Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush in Frisky This is not normally a blush color that I would have picked for myself, it's a red blush with gold glitter flecks. I tried it out anyways and ended up loving it! I received another full sized blush in a early New Beauty Test Tube. Again, I don't mind. This blush and this brand is one of my favorites. 



The following products were included in the Bonus Products bag that were not part of the regular tube.  These products vary for each person.
1.77 fl. oz. Phyto phytomist leave in conditioner for color treated hair I received this in my New Beauty Test Tube Spring "Box"

0.4 fl. oz. Philosophy 'full of promise' dual action restoring cream for volume and lift


0.03 fl. oz. Rodial Stemcell Super-food facial oil. I received the same sample New Beauty Test Tube November 2013 tube. 


1 fl. oz. Suki exoliate foaming cleanser I received this exact sample in my New Beauty Test Tube Spring "Box" I really liked this sample. It foams up, while also having tiny exfoliating beads to get a really deep clean.



So, my past complaints about this sample service is that I keep receiving the same products in multiple tubes. This box isn't any different. However, I'm satisfied with this month's tube because the products that I have received repeatedly, were all products that I really liked, and probably would have gone out and purchased. This just makes it easier on me. Now I'm even more confused if I should cancel this subscription or keep it.

Fab Fit Fun Winter 2013

Price: $49.99 per season

Ships out: Quarterly

The Extras: This box is curated by Giuliana Rancic from E!. The box is pricey but promises full size and premium samples that will at least have $100.00 worth of products in each box. 


First Look!



The box includes a fold out card that describes each of the products that were in this month's box. 


The sneak peek for the winter box was this key necklace from The Giving Keys. You are supposed to wear the key for some inspiration and when you no longer need it, you are supposed to pass the necklace along to someone else that could use the inspiration. 
Each key is differently shaped and has a different word etched onto one side. My key had "Inspire". I liked the key, but don't like how it hangs around the neck. I would have rather had the key hang on one side of the necklace instead of at the bottom (like the picture above). But because the key is heavier than the chain that it hangs on, the necklace hangs he way that it does. 
Retail: $55.00


Lorna Jane bracelet
Retail: $29.99


FULL SIZE Bioxidea Miracle 24 face mask
