{Walmart* Beauty Box} Fall 2016 

Ahhh it’s finally fall! Which means any thing and everything is coming up pumpkin spice. Which is not ok in my book I LOVE fall but despises pumpkin spice anything. Pumpkins are for carving, not eating. Any hoo….. the Minnesota air is getting crisp, the trees are starting to show there colors, and my skin is dry as fuck. Fall/winter weather does a number on your skin. No one likes to be all sorts of dry and itchy. It’s just one of things one puts up with when they live in a northern climate.

Thankfully Walmart came to my rescue with a box full of products perfectly suited for fall. I know know Walmart. One of these days you have to drop your “I can’t shop at Walmart complex.” Walmart is awesom in my book, that’s where I do my grocery and household shopping. Not to mention I got a nice puffer jacket which is perfect for fall there last weekend for $10.00! Now that was a steal of a deal. 

Enough about my grocery shopping and $10 puffer jacket! Let’s get to it! I know why you are here! You want to know what’s in my box!! Well gals and guys let’s open the box and find out!

Spring2016

These Walmart spring picks provide you with beauty products that help you define your beauty into full bloom!

Hello Spring! Well around here it is more like “Hello wind and chilly days!” Spring has sort of sprung in Minnesota, our days are a tad warmer, snow free, and fucking windy. Wind is no ones friend, it messes with ones perfectly groomed hair and skirts of a certain length are not safe.

Spring_2016

I was very excited to see that the spring Walmart beauty box was on its way. Affordable easily accessible beauty and skin care products are important and Walmart always showcases the seasons hot new products. Thou I am a little concerned, Walmart must think that I have bad breath and itchy skin, they sent me tooth past and an itchy skin body wash. Everything else is semi-debatable.

“Lady! What did Walmart send you!?”

{Walmart Beauty} Quarterly Beauty Box – Winter 2015

Fall 2015
“A defining line here. A splash of color there. Every woman has her own unique way of showing the beauty within her. At Walmart, you’ll discover the latest products and most trusted brands at our low prices. Every day.”

Hello Winter! Wait Winter, where are you? The ground is still brown, there is no ice, traffic is a breeze, and snow storms are missing. Oh winter you decided to take a vacation and miss Minnesota this year, well that is just fantastic! Merry Christmas Winter, Merry Christmas. Winter has been mild in Minnesota and I could not be happier. Digging yourself out after snowstorms gets a little old, as does being stuck on the freeway for hours because someone forgot how to drive in the wintery conditions.

Walmart shelves are loaded down with Christmas decorations, gift sets, and of course toys. We cannot forget the TOYS, toys for big kids and little ones alike. I am a fan of the Pioneer Woman Collection, kitchen toys are always a safe buy and well new beauty products too. Tis the season to try something new and refreshing. My winter box arrived just in time, the weatherman claims its going to start snowing here and the temps are about to drop. Which means I will be in search of new products to keep the dreaded winter dry skin at bay.

“So AJ what did you get in your Winter Walmart box?”

Winter 2015

Winter 2015

Pure Silk Rich & Luxurious Shave Cream: This smooth shave cream will moisturize, soften and nourish your skin as you shave, leaving your skin feeling pampered. With a fresh Raspberry Mist scent, this lather shave cream contains no CFCs and is packaged in a rust-proof aluminum can.

Goody Slide proof elastics: is a line of everyday stylish accessories designed to provide all-day mazimum hold. These accessories fit securely without sacrificing style and are the perfect accessory to keep hair looking its best throughout the day.

NSPA Exotically Creamy Coconut Rich Body Butter: Indulge your senses with NSPA Exotically Creamy Coconut Rich Body Butter packed with natural vitamins and real fruit goodness to deeply nourish skin, leaving it healthier looking and feeling velvety soft.

Dial 7 day Moisturizing lotion – Omega Moisture: leaves your skin looking and feeling younger, healthier and more beautiful. With seven bionutrients, including vitamins and minerals as well as honey extract, your skin receives the daily dose of nutrition it needs.

Infused with antioxidant white tea and vitamin E, this moisturizing scrub formula boosts three signs of healthy-looking skin: softness, evenness, and radiance.

The winter Walmart box was over all super. A lot of ladies received what felt like odds and ends, I however received a nice lot of samples. Two of the products the Dial lotion and Nuetrogena cleanser are repeat products for me, but who cares, I will totally use them up. A girl can never have to many hair ties, travel size bottles of shave gel and hairspray, so this box totally worked for me.

“A defining line here. A splash of color there. Every woman has her own unique way of showing the beauty within her. At Walmart, you’ll discover the latest products and most trusted brands at our low prices. Every day.”

Ahh September you have finally arrives, the cool air is quietly rushing in, pumpkin spice everything lines the shelves, and I start sneezing, as in really sneezing. Fall is my favorite time of the year, there are apples to eat, pumpkins to carve, and cool nights to cuddle in. Fall brings change, each fall I grow older and tick off one more year of survival, in the fall I find comfort in the changes around me.

Fall means switching up my beauty routine and prepping my skin for winter. I start putting away my light summer formulas and pull out my heavy duty moisturizers. My tan starts to fade and my skin loses its luster, fall I love you, but you are not good for my skin. Fall is also tights weather, I love wearing tights with my dresses and pulling out my heavier cardigans and blazers, not to mention my plethora of ballet flats too. Walmart happens to be my go to spot for stocking up on my fall beauty needs and ballet flats. Oh and not to mention I am now obsessed with the Pioneer Woman’s collection, which lives at walmart. So yes I have lots of reasons to go to Walmart.

“So AJ what did you get in your Fall Walmart box?

Its stuff that I will definitely use, who doesn’t need extra deodorant and razors. Those are like the staples of womanhood, a girl has gotta have smooth legs and nice smelling pits. Well you can hide those non-shaved legs during the winter months, that is why God gave us tights ladies!!!!

“A defining line here. A splash of color there. Every woman has her own unique way of showing the beauty within her. At Walmart, you’ll discover the latest products and most trusted brands at our low prices. Every day.”

SUMMER! Has finally arrived and I could not be happier. Long sunny days are what I live for, throw in a lake and I am one very happy girl. If that lake has a beach and sea glass, I will probably just explode. Yes I know because that right there would just be a summer overload! Summers in Minnesota are short, but hey its why we chose the land of 10,000 lakes to be our home, there is nothing like a Minnesota summer.

Yes, sometimes I can’t sleep so I go grocery shopping at 1am.

Anyways! Back to the box, cause we know that’s why you are really here.

Wal-Mart Beauty Winter 2014

The Walmart beauty box is exposing consumers to easily accessible and affordable brands. The Winter Box is the second quarterly box from Walmart and it promised to be packed with products to get us through the coldest season of the year. There was a glitch with the Walmart Beauty Box site and at one time it looked like I had ordered 7 boxes. Thankfully my card was only charged for one $5.00 box and I only received one box. It was actually delivered today, one has to love Sunday mail delivery during the holidays.

{Walmart Beauty} Quarterly Beauty Box – Fall 2014

Fall 2014

Fall 2014

A few weeks ago the internet was rumbling with rumors of a $5.00 beauty box from Walmart. A lot of ladies were concerned that it was a scam because the web address did not have “https” in it and they felt that it was not secure. This fear continued even when they went to walmart.com and found the box in the beauty section. After a few days Walmart reassured the masses that the box was real and that the online order form was encrypted. I for one did not doubt the box and signed up on the first day it was released.

The new Walmart beauty box is exposing consumers to easily accessible and affordable brands. I actually love the concept of a mass retailer having a quarterly box. This allows me to sample products and if I like it I can go straight to Walmart to buy said product. Calm down, yes I just publically admitted that I shop at Walmart. Its probably a sin seeing how I live and work in the birthplace of Target. Don’t get me wrong I have equal love for both Walmart and Target. Walmart is were I buy groceries, Freshpet and other necessities. I buy my cardigans, gifts and household items from Target. That is enough confessions for one day, lets get back on track and talk about the box!

Walmart Quarterly Beauty Box – Fall 2014

Fall box

Secret Clinical Strength Invisible Solid in Completely Clean: A refreshingly light scent with clinical protection that keeps up with you all day long.
————————-> I have been a fan of Secret Clinical Strength deodorant for years and I am so glad they finally came out with an invisible solid option. No one likes white streaks on their little black dress or on their shirts. You can pick up your very own deodorant at walmart for a lovely price of $7.92, now that’s a bargain!

COVERGIRL Glowing Nights – #AfterDark: Nail Gloss offer bright trendy colors for day. Plus, light up the night with colors that glow under black light.
———————–> Black light? Hello your 1990’s rave called and they want there black light back. I had no idea that black lights were still a thing. This is a pretty cool concept, however my toes will see the shower before they find themselves under a black light at a rave or nightclub. This very pretty bottle of glow in the black light polish will set you back $2.97.

Nicki Minaj Perfume – Pink Friday: this sassy, dreamy and appealing scent of Nicki Minaj Pink Friday Fragrance. Is an intoxicating floral, musky perfume delivered in a unique statuesque bottle that is shaped like the lovely diva herself with her signature pink locks.
——————> I am so out of touch with pop culture…….. I think Nicki is a girl who wears pasties on her boobies. Then again I am not sure. You can buy the perfume at Walmart for $19.99.

L’Oreal Glossy Balm in Lovely Mocha: Ultra-glossy color for a flirty, playful pout.
—————–> At first I thought this was a lip gloss because well the name says “glossy.” I was a little surprised when I opened it and found that it is a lip crayon. The color I received is perfect for my skin tone and it kept my lips soft. No one likes dried colorless lips, so go on out and get your very own for $6.97.

Dove Advanced Hair Series Oxygen Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner: provides your hair with moisture and 95% more volume. Dove Advanced Hair Series Oxygen Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner are made with Dove’s Oxyfusion Technology, a new generation of moisture. $4.98 each

Dove Pure Care Dry Oil: Extraordinary weightless nourishment in every drop–the lightweight, luxurious formula of Dove Pure Care Dry Oil Restorative Hair Treatment is infused with pure drops of precious oils. $11.98 at a Walmart near you!

Foil Packets! Get your foil Packets right here! Foil Packets!: L’Oreal Paris YouthCode Pore Vanisher and Neutrogena nourishing long wear makeup.

Props to Walmart for putting together an awesome box. Three of the products I received were full-size and the Dove samples were deluxe sized. The deodorant, nail polish, and gloss balm were worth a total of $17.92. I honestly feel like I just robbed Walmart, I paid $5.00 for $20.00 worth of full-sized products and samples.

Walmart has different variations of the quarterly box. They are using age as a deciding factor on which box is sent to you. The questionnaire on the beauty profile is pretty simple and I like that they are sending me a box based on my age and not what I check. It seems that they are putting one common product in each box and after that your items are left up to chance. The only thing that bugged me was that they did not send out a shipping confirmation and I could not track my box.
