Every spring WholeFoods Market have a big beauty sale. There's 25% off everything in their WholeBody beauty department and they also have a very limited amount of specially curated beauty bags stuffed full to the brim with samples and minis available for purchase. The bags are on a first come first served basis and usually sell out very fast so I hot footed it to my nearest WholeFoods on Friday morning when they were issued and managed to snag one.
This year's bag cost $20.00 and was worth over $100.00 - well worth getting up early for!
And I really do love this year's bag, not only does it look great it is made by Piece & Co. Piece & Co source their products from independent artisans and small businesses and create them from sustainable fibers with totally transparent business practices. (pieceandco.com). This year's bag is a striking black and white print and is made of the softest cotton. It is also fully lined, and has tassels (yay!).
Inside the bag there is a headband from another sustainable, empowering company satvaliving.com which will come in handy when I'm masking.
Even more excitingly there are also fourteen skincare and make up items!
Skincare items include:
Acure Brilliantly Brightening Facial Scrub (1fl oz), Alba Botanica Hawaiian Detox Warming Mud Mask (one time use), Andalou Naturals Hyaluronic DMAE Lift and Firm Cream (.14oz), DermaE Radiant Glow Face Oil (.13fl oz), Evan Healy Rose Cleansing Milk (1oz), Pacifica Coconut Water Cleansing Wipes (x10), Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel (3 fl oz), Trilogy Rose Hip Oil (.17 fl oz) and a tube of Weleda Skin Food (.34 oz).
There are three full sized make up items in the bag! A Mineral Fusion Bronzer Duo, a Burt's Bees Lipstick (mine is in the shade 'Brimming Berry') and a Lip Care Stick by Dr Hauschka. There is also a mini Mineral Fusion Mascara.
And there's more! Also included were coupons for $10.00 off Satva Living products and $10.00 off Dr Hauschka purchases of $50.00 or more.
All in all this is a fantastic beauty bag! I'm particularly looking forward to trying the Evan Healy Rose Cleansing Milk as they are one of my favourite green beauty brands. I'm also pleased to get the opportunity to try the Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel. The Dr Hauschka Lip Care Stick is going straight into my handbag.
I think that this is the best beauty bag WholeFoods have produced so far and I'm so pleased that I made the effort to shop early and managed to get one.
(I also really enjoyed the Cheddar and Scallion Scone I picked up for breakfast!!).
