This is one of my favorite beauty products of all time. I sampled a little bit about a month ago and was so excited when it was in October's Play! box. The smell is a little weird, but I find it kind of addicting. It has almost like a cinnamon smell, and I love it. It's probably my favorite morning moisturizer. It makes me skin so soft and it doesn't cause my skin to get oily during the day. I highly recommend trying this stuff out. If the smell off puts you, I'm so sorry because this is one of the best skin care products I've ever tried.
The Pure Revival Peel is a unique product. You apply to dry skin and massage it in after 10 seconds to peel off dead skin. Honestly, I don't know if it really made my skin that much brighter, but it's an interesting concept. I could see why people enjoy this product, but I don't think I will be buying it anytime soon.
While this isn't my best selfie, look at the hair. Let me preface my hair styling routine. When I blow dry, I only use my fingers. This product took out all of the frizz and made my hair silky straight. The only other product that has ever done this is Living Proof. For me to hold this in the same esteem as Living Proof says a lot. Want another great fact about it? It's only $14 for an 8-ounce bottle. That's amazing. Verb is fairly priced for the quality, and I'm looking to invest into more of their products. Final bonus? The scent is nice and light, and this product doesn't make your hair greasy. In fact, you'll have blown out hair until your next wash. Get your hands on Verb now!
I'm actually really impressed with Nudestix. While the color isn't my favorite, it's not bad by any means. The product reminds me of NARS matte pencils, but I do prefer NARS. I'll probably use this product every now and then as lipstick. Cool bit about these pencils, they double as a blush. It feels awesome, but I think I'll stick with my go-to cheek color. I will say this in its favor, though. I don't usually like cream blushes, and it made me feel like maybe creamy blushes aren't that bad. If I did rebuy this product, it would be in a different color (but I probably wouldn't like the color as a blush).
I know Smashbox says Driver's Seat is a warm pink, but on me, it's an orangish-brown. Not that I'm complaining, I actually love the color. I'm skeptical about the product itself, though. The first time I wore it, it came off on everything. Everyone I know always brags about Smashbox never coming off, but I feel like that is all it did on me. I'll probably wear this again with my rust colored fall clothing, but I'll probably need to carry it around to reapply. Also, not the biggest fan of the applicator. I'm a lip pencil gal because it gives me everything I need to apply lipstick perfectly. Thankfully, I've gotten better with the applicator, but it took a few times before I was used to it. Let it be known that I will use this product up, but I'd probably just try to find a similar color in another product.
When it comes to perfumes, I'm extremely picky. This scent was way too strong and too sweet. If you like the smell of orchids, then this scent might be for you. Although, my question for you would be, "is it really worth 120 dollars?" If the answer is yes, more power to you. For me, it went to the trash and I hope I never have to smell it again. Way too overpowering, but I guess you could deem the scent "romantic."
Ultimately, I was a fan of this months box. I felt like I got a lot out of it, even if I wouldn't repurchase a lot of these items. More than anything, I'm excited about November's box. Because who doesn't love beauty products that make you glow for your birthday?
