Target Beauty Box: June
The Target Beauty Box is a one-time purchase monthly box that includes deluxe and full sized beauty products that you can find at Target and of course other retailers.

The box varies in price from $7-$10 so it’s relatively inexpensive to purchase a box. I like that you can choose every month if you want to buy the box or not since it’s not an actual subscription.

BREAKDOWN OF THE JUNE GOODIES:
1. Hawaiian Tropic Island Sport Sunscreen – Value for 2 oz = $2.25
The full size 8oz bottle retails for $8.99. Lightweight, breathable formula offers 12-hour hydration and SPF 30 broad spectrum protection. I’m going on my first vacation of the summer this weekend so I can’t wait to try this out. I’m a huge fan of Hawaiian Tropic Sunscreen, so I know this product will be great as well!
1. Jon Frieda Beach Blonde Sea Salt Spray – Value for 1 oz = $2.99
You can buy this travel size or the full 5 oz bottle for $8.99. Non-drying formula texturizes hair for a tousled look, windswept waves or piece-y perfection. I CAN’T stand getting this product in my boxes!!! This product doesn’t work on my hair and I end up getting rid of this spray every time I get it.
1. Sinful Colors Nail Polish in Clad in Plaid – Value for 0.5 oz = $1.99
This is a full size item! Highly pigmented nail color dries quickly and has a smooth, satin finish. This is a super fun looking red color. Perfect for summer time. I can’t wait to use it and see how it looks on my nails!
1. Masque Bar Soothing Sheet Mask –Value for 1 count = $3.49
Skin-moisturizing sheet mask helps hydrate and soothe skin for a healthy-looking complexion. While I love masks, I’m not a huge fan of sheet masks. I think that my face is too small or something because the mask is always WAY too big on my face!
1. Aussie 3-Minute Miracle Treatment– Value for 1.7oz = $0.53
An 8oz bottle retails for $2.97 and the 16oz bottle retails for $4.99. Conditioning treatment transforms dry hair into silky, shiny waves with Australian aloe, jojoba and sea kelp. I actually just used this and was pretty impressed with the product. I don’t normally use deep conditioners, but since I went a little blonder my last hair appointment, I figured my hair could use a little lovin. My hair felt great after using it and it looks a lot healthier!
1. Schick Hydro Silk Women’s Razor –Value for 1 = $8.99
5 curve-sensing blades with concentrated serum and shea butter moisturizer for up to 12 hours after shaving. Perfect! I needed a new razor! I really like this razor but I’m not too picky when it comes to my razors, as long as they’re not the cheapy, throw in the trash the next day kind, then I’m good.
1. NYX Gotcha Covered Concealer in Medium– Value = $5.99
Coconut oil-infused, waterproof concealer blends to hide imperfections without creasing or caking. I wasn’t really a fan of this or the brand. There are very few NYX products that I like to use, but this isn’t one of them. I’m very particular about my concealer since I tend to break out easily so I stick to one brand and one brand only.

THE VALUE

The value of this June Beauty Box is about $26.23. Since this box was only $7 plus shipping (mine was free shipping + 5% off since I have a Target Debit Card) this is a great deal! For this particular box, I felt that the value this month was really good since it had 4 full size items and the rest travel size. This is perfect for trying out a new product that you may not normally buy.

I think this box is a great deal and I love trying new products every month! I can’t wait to order the July box!

His: Target December Box

So the December box was kind of neat because they offer a box for both him and her! This review is strictly for the box for HIM! I gave the items to my younger brother to try them out and here is a little of what he had to say.

The Target Beauty Box is a one-time purchase monthly box that includes deluxe and full-sized beauty products that you can find at Target and of course other retailers.

Here is a BREAKDOWN of the goodies in the December box:

1. Gold Bond Ultimate Refresh 360 Body Powder – Value = $0.70 for 1 oz

This body powder retails for $6.99 for the full 10 oz size. I don’t actually know much about this product since it is currently still wrapped up like it is below and sitting on our bathroom counter.

2. Old Spice Dirt Destroyer Puresport Body Wash– Value = $0.95 for 3 oz bottle

The full 16 oz bottle retails for $4.99. This is currently the body wash in the shower in the bathroom we share. That right there was a good sign that he was going to like the product. He likes the way it smells and leaves you smelling good even after you get out of the shower. I’m not going to lie, I’ve used it a few times and even I like the way it smells!

3. Colgate Optic White Platinum Toothpaste– Value = $1.62 for 1.45 oz

For a full size 3 oz tube this retails for $3.34! I have been using this toothpaste since I opened the box. I like the way my mouth feels after I’m done brushing my teeth. I feel like it is a good product and would definitely buy the full size tube. I have also noticed that my teeth appear to look whiter after a week of using the tooth paste twice a day.

4. Gillette Fusion Hydra Shave Gel– Value = $2.12 for 2.5 oz

The full 7 oz size retails for $2.74. Again, this is another product that is a staple for not only both of my brothers but for my Mr. as well. It leaves their faces smooth and fresh looking. They like the way it foams up as they rub it onto their faces. Since this is something they already use, it is definitely something that they will continue to buy in the future.

5. Every Man Jack 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner – Value = $1.20 for 2 oz

The full size bottle (13.5oz) is $7.99. This was a product that none of the males in my life had heard of or used before. My one brother said he likes the way this smelled when he was washing his hair and liked that it didn’t smell girly in any way. Since it is a 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, it left my brother’s hair feeling soft and not like a brillo pad like it normally does.

6. Old Spice Swagger 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner – Value = $0.56 for 1.7 oz

A full 25.3oz bottle retails for $6.99. Again, this is another staple in our house as my youngest brother uses this. He normally changes it up with Head & Shoulders, but he likes the way this one smells when he uses it and it leaves his hair smelling good too. This size bottle is perfect for throwing into his gym bag to use after weight-lifting before school.

7. Dove Men+Care Clean Comfort Body Wash– Value = $0.55 for 1.8 oz

The full 18 oz bottle retails for $4.69. This is another product that is an absolute staple in our house. Mr. Fiance uses this daily when he showers and my mom buys it for my dad as well. I like this because it leaves Mr.’s skin feeling soft and smooth even if he doesn’t put lotion on! This is great for travel and will definitely be used!

8. Nautica Voyage Sport Cologne – Value = $0.70

A full size (1.7oz) bottle retails for $34.99. This was nice that it came in a mini spray bottle rather than the wand. My brother is currently wearing this and I have to say it smells kind of like the Old Spice Pure Sport. It smells good on him and he likes it, so I guess that’s all that matters! He’s not really a big cologne guy but he does wear it for special occasions.

THE VALUE

The value of this December Beauty Box for Him is about $8.40. Since this box was only $7.00 plus shipping (mine was free + 5% off since I have a Target Debit Card) this is a great deal! For this particular box, it had no full size items, but worked out since almost all of the products were things that someone in my family uses all the time! This was such a great box

I think this box is a great deal and I can’t wait to see what January will look like! I can definitely say that I will be purchasing this box again in the future as long as it is not sold out!

XOXO
