Target’s newest beauty box has finally arrived to my front door (not really, it was in my mailbox)! Like always, Rese and I both ordered one, however I was hesitant on ordering one due to still having a lot of products to try out. I love testing out new products, but there are still quite a handful of products from previous boxes that are unopened. I think this is due to less focus on skincare and beauty during the semester, like I want to have good skin and try out more products and see what works best so that I can hopefully achieve a stage of never needing foundation–that’s the dream right? Anyways, it’s just laziness to test out new products since I put my energy into school and pampering myself seems almost like a waste of time…but it’s May and that means summer (kinda, still taking more classes😕). Now that I wrote that, I’m thinking how taking care of my skin is actually an okay procrastination compared to other activities, like watching Youtube videos. I’m making a note of that for future semesters. Overall, I did cave and order one for myself.
This month’s box included some great products, as well as products that have been in previous boxes. What really drew me in to ordering a new box was the Loreal Colour Riche La Lacque Lip Pen, I’m the biggest fan on lip products and I hadn’t seen this lip pen before. What kinda sucks, is that I receive a red (205- Lacque and Roll) which is an okay color, I haven’t tried it on but it seems a bit bright for my skin tone. Also, red is not really an everyday color for me in my engineering courses, haha. Rese also received the same color.
There was also a dry shampoo, which is a repeat product, but I really liked it and travel size dry shampoos are so handy for travel (duh Ry, that was an obvious statement). Another repeat product was the Laneige Water Bank Moisture Cream. This face lotion smells so amazing. Oh my gosh, after writing that sentence I actually went to look up and see if it was for my face cause every time I used it, my face got very oily and I wondered if I was using it inappropriately. Thankfully I was’t, this is a facial cream for normal to dry skin. My skin is pretty oily, so this product was not for me but the scent is lovely.
