Walmart Beauty Box (Trendsetter) Summer 2017.


Walmart Beauty Box is a subscription box that ships to you four times a year once you have signed up for it. Containing an assortment of full sized products, samples and money off coupons the box itself is free and you pay just $5.00 a box for shipping. There are two variations of the box intended to appeal to different age groups, I receive the Trendsetter box which is aimed at younger shoppers, there is also a Classic box for older shoppers.

Simple Cleansing Face Wipes (7 wipes).
I very rarely use wipes myself but Mr C&C likes to use them to freshen up so I'm always okay with receiving them in boxes as I can pass them on to him.

Pantene Dream Care Shampoo (1.7 fl oz).
Pantene Dream Care Conditioner (1.7 fl oz).
 For some reason I don't often purchase Pantene but I usually like their products whenever I do. I'm always happy to get minis of shampoo and conditioner as they are so handy to take on short trips. These samples are a decent size, they have a fresh, clean scent that I like and they both claim to hydrate and moisurise hair. 

Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Gel (.25 fl oz).
Strangely, I'm rather excited to try this brush cleanser, 
I love Real Technique brushes so I have high expectations for it! 
I'm kind of slack when it comes to cleaning make up brushes so I enjoy getting samples of brush cleansers for the simple reason that it forces me into doing it.

Eco Tools Mask Remover Sponges (2 sponges).
These two sponges are made of wood pulp (cellulose) and as well as removing masks can be used for daily cleansing, apparently they also gently exfoliate while removing excess product.TBH I'm not sure about them purely because I'm so devoted to using flannels/washcloths and I hate the feel of certain cottons and tissues on my face but I will willingly try these next time I use a mask. 

Got2B Ultra Glued Styling Gel (1.25 fl oz).
I never use hair gel so this is going in my giveaway pile. The fact that the packaging contains the words 'invincible' and 'ultra glued' scare me into thinking that this will result in hard crispy hair! 

Impress Press On Manicure (30 nails).
These are very summery. The pack I received contains a mix of anchor designs, nautical stripes, and a coral-y red. They are very cute, but not my style at all, so it's another one for the giveaway pile.

Smile Direct Coupon.
The box also contained a coupon for Smile Direct Club which was worth $155.00 towards online cosmetic dentistry (basically teeth straightening). I won't use this as cut price medical procedures scare the hell out of me and it seem to be too good to true so there has to be a catch somewhere right?. 

Overall.
I've said this before but I really don't think that you can go wrong with the Walmart box. It is so inexpensive and the fact that it only ships quarterly means that you don't get bogged down with repeat products. 
Sure, I didn't love everything in this month's box - the press on nails and hair gel hold no appeal whatsoever for me - but the face wipes, shampoo and conditioner are all practical and useful and I look forward to testing out the mask sponges and brush cleaner. I don't know the value for all the items in the box but the value of the ones that I will use add up to more than $5.00 so I'm happy.
