Beauty Box 5 May 2014 Reveal

It's that time again, where all my subscription boxes are starting to arrive. I just got my Beauty Box 5 and it might very well be my favorite one so far this month...take a look!

For those who are unfamiliar with Beauty Box 5, its a monthly subscription box that contains 5 beauty samples for $12 a month.

 First is Ban's (the deodorant company) Total Refresh Cooling Body Cloths. I got 3 of them (they normally come 10 in a pack for $2.97). These cloths are meant for your whole body and you just open one up and give yourself a quick once-over after the gym or if you're going somewhere after work and need to freshen up. They're so perfect for summer because they're cooling and leave your skin with a powdery soft finish so you won't feel all sweaty and gross on a sweltering hot day. I had never heard of these before but will definitely be buying more when these run out...they're cheap too!

 I'm still loving the H2O+ hand cream I got in last month's Beauty Box 5, so much so that I bought the full size at Kohls the other day! So I was super excited to get another product from them in this month's box. This Marine cleansing gel is supposed to gently exfoliate and protect skin from free radicals and environmental damage. It contains sea salt and marine botanicals. Sounds nice and I can't wait to try it! This is a sample size but the full size retails for $18.

 This Cattiva Eye Pencil is waterproof and retractable (no sharpening-yay!). I've never heard of this brand before but I swatched this liner on my hand and it has a smooth glide and didn't budge! Waterproof liners are so essential when the weather gets warm so I'm really happy to have this. It's a full size, worth $20!

 This next sample I am particularly excited about...its Harvey Prince's Hello Perfume. I've been wanting to try this ever since they talked about it in the Birchbox sneek peek video a few months ago. It sounded amazing and the reviews are really good, so I was all excited and didn't end up getting it in my Birchbox...bummer! But Beauty Box 5 included it this month, so thank you, thank you! This is my new summer perfume! I have already ordered a full size because I love it so much. Hello is such a fitting name because it just greets you with a smile when you spray it on and makes you feel happy. The description says it has Meyer Lemon and Grapefruit at the top, then Forsythia and Plumeria so basically a citrus floral, but that's not what I get from it at all! Floral scents typically give me a headache and citrus smell too clean and tart most of the time. I do smell them in here but this perfume has a warmth that I never expected and I love warm scents...coconut, vanilla, sandalwood etc. I never thought I would like a floral but this has a sweetness and warmth that's still fresh at the same time- perfect for summer. It's the one I've been waiting for!

 Finally, I got a Hydrating Sheet Mask from Masker Aide (cute name!). This one is called Pre Party Prep and is supposed to Brighten, Prime, and Energize the skin, all with the convenience of a sheet and no mess. I've never tried a sheet mask so I'm excited to have the opportunity.

Overall, I love everything in my Beauty Box 5 this month! I got to try some things I've never tried before, found my new signature scent, and got a full sized staple product that I know I'll be using this summer.
