Jazmine Beauty—Luxe Lash Volumizing Mascara
Retail price: $24
Mascara can be a fickle friend, promising volume and staying power, only to betray you with smudges and runs at the least opportune moments. That's why I was so happy to discover Jazmine Beauty's Luxe Lash Volumizing Mascara. From emotional moments to days spent under the hot sun, this mascara has proven itself as the reliable ally you didn't know you needed. The smudge-proof, no-transfer formula had me sold from the first application. It navigated through various climates with ease, making it perfect for my on-the-go lifestyle. What truly seals the deal for me is that this brand is 100% vegan and their products are formulated without any harsh ingredients.
Oolution—Whole Again Nourishing Face Cream
Retail price: $38
This one's for all our subscribers struggling with dry skin, although it works incredibly for any skin type as well. I've always been on the lookout for that perfect moisturizer, and ooLution's Whole Again might just be it. The blend of over 70 active plant ingredients seems tailor-made for my sensitive skin. Its richness doesn't just sit on the skin - it dives deep, nourishing and soothing from within. And as a bonus, the floral notes offer a gentle reminder of nature's beauty every time I use it.
Base Blue—Micro Precise Brow Pencil
Shade options: Taupe, Dark Brown
Retail price: $13
Diving into the world of brow products, it's imperative to find something that doesn't just fill in gaps, but does so with grace and precision. Enter the Micro Precise Brow Pencil by Base Blue. Its ultra-fine tip is a dream for those who crave the meticulous detailing of individual hair-like strokes. Perfect for both brow novices and aficionados, this retractable pencil brings a unique blend of ease and accuracy. I was particularly impressed by its long-wearing formula, ensuring that my brows remained impeccable for up to 12 hours without a hint of smudging. The added bonus? It's vegan, which isn't always easy to find in a brow pencil. If you've been on the hunt for a product that offers natural-looking definition and longevity, this might just be your brow's new best friend. Highly recommended for our subscribers who love a defined yet natural brow look.
Avani—Dead Sea Mud Mask
Retail price: $33
The AVANI Dead Sea Mud Mask is like a mini-vacation for your pores. By applying just a thin layer and letting it sit for a mere 5-10 minutes, it works its magic, pulling out excess oils and toxins. The blend of essential minerals and trace elements gives a deep cleanse, while simultaneously, the moisturizing ingredients ensure my skin feels refreshed and toned. We chose this product because it's suitable for all skin types, though oily and combination skin types will benefit the most from the mask.
768 Cosmetics—Breathable Nail Polish
Shade options: Dakar, Agra, Patagonia
Retail price: $14
I always found nail polish to be a fun addition to subscription boxes, and this is our first ever nail polish inclusion in the Better Beauty Box. In August, you chose between 3 shades from 786 Cosmetics: Patagonia, an icy minty light blue, Agra, a deep red, and Dakar, a delicate light pink. I chose shades that are pretty different from one another to make sure everyone can find something they love. Agra is a great shade for fall, and Dakar is the prettiest pink that can be worn all year round. All shades are vegan, of course, and I also love that they list all of their ingredients on their website, which isn't often the case with nail polish brands. Which one would you choose?
Total Value: $122
This month, subscribers received a total value of $122 for as low as $34.99 depending on their subscription plan. As usual, I included products that are as universally-appealing as possible and that you'll actually use and love. Did you like this edition? You can still get this box at Better Beauty Box if you subscribe until the end of the month.
