Babe Box is a Canadian company, similar to others that have been popular on the Internet, that sends a bunch of beauty products to try out if you subscribe, or order a seasonal box. I ordered a fall seasonal box after finding out about the company on Twitter, and was a little bit skeptical because I've never ordered any type of beauty box before so I wasn't sure if they were worth the hype. However, despite my worrying, when the box arrived I was so impressed. It came in an all pink packaged parcel, and included five incredible products.
1.) Lipidol Overnight Face I'm the type of person that when someone says "oil" I panic. I have very acne-prone skin that is very sensitive. I gave this product a shot completely expecting it to break me out and leave my skin looking oily and patchy, but to my surprise it did the opposite. To use it, you apply the oil to your face before going to bed and leave it on and it helps rejuvenate the skin's natural oils that get stripped down throughout the day. This product left my face feeling refreshed, clean and rejuvenated in the morning. 2.) Get Your Glow On Skin-Brightening Peel Mask Papaya+Citrus I love face masks, any type of face mask so when I found this included in my Babe Box I was so excited to try it. I've never used a peel-off mask before, so it did feel a little bit weird on my skin at first however, I found it worked wonderfully. The mask helps to revitalize tired skin, combat breakouts, unclog pores and brighten skin. You leave the mask on for about 15 minutes and then it just easily peels off, and as the directions say, leaves your skin again feeling wonderful. While using it I found myself smiling the citrus which was definitely an added bonus. 3.) Goody Simple Styles Faux Bob Kit Despite the name, you can use this handy hair-clip to not only give yourself a faux bob but also to just get your hair out of your face however you want. I have naturally very curly and frizzy hair, so any type of product that helps me manage it I'm a fan of, and this faux bob kit was one of those products. 4.) NYC Eyeliner Duet- Rich Girl This eyeliner duo is perfect for fall. It included a basic black colour, and a gold bronze-brown colour. I've never used any products from NYC before, but have always heard good things, so I was excited that this product came with my box. Using this eyeliner is very easy, it's smooth, glides easily, and lasts all day. Everything you want in an eyeliner this one has, as well as a second colour. It has become a must in my daily makeup routine. 5.) Wet n' Wild Megaslicks Lip Gloss- Red Sensation The perfect fall colour, this lip gloss is a deep-red and has a slight shimmer to it. It applies very smoothly and does not leave your lips feeling dry or chapped, something we all want to avoid when approaching colder months. When I go to school I never think about reapplying my makeup so I want something that is going to last me all day, and this lip gloss does the trick. Overall I was very impressed with Babe Box and would highly recommend it to someone who is wanting to try out new beauty products, but does not want to spend a lot of money on them before they decide if they like them or not.
