February Target Beauty Box.
Hey yo!
It's been a busy week with cranking out 4 posts in a row. Thanks for sticking with me. I hope you guys have enjoyed it. I may do it like this every month. Instead of spreading out my subscriptions just do them all that last week like boom boom boom. We will see.
Anyways moving on to this last review of the month. I discovered a new subscription. This one is kind of like my Walmart Beauty Box expect this one is monthly and from Target. Honestly, I didn't even know they did this till I got an email and was like well ok. Let me give this a try.
Literally, the moment after I ordered it I got this email saying what I would be getting in it. I don't know if it's cause I ordered it late in the month that it had already been announced or if this is something they do but I'm into it. Mainly cause I haven't tried any of these products at all.
You get this pretty abstract art looking box. It's one that you can take the lid off of and the bottom was solid pink.
When you open it up this is the 1st thing you see. Which is a lovely message to Love Yourself for this month of Love, Please love yourself more than anyone else. It's ok to do sometimes don't worry about it.
On the back, it includes a list of the what in the box and a short description. Also, you get a coupon for $3 off that can only be used within the month.
Que Belle Professional's Selfie Ready Sheet Mask. This is a brand I haven't heard of and I do enjoy a good sheet mask. I tried this one before doing my make up one day since it's a priming mask. It was a little strange. I didn't feel like a normal mask due to the fact it didn't have a lot of product on it. Which is good in some case since most just go overboard with it. I applied this one and was a little worried it wouldn't stay on due to the lack of product but it did. I left it on for 15 mins, during that time it did give my face cool down and slight tingle. It wasn't anything terrible, but I was excited to get it off. I rubbed what little was left into my face a little bit then just let it soak in. I waited maybe an hour before applying makeup. It did leave my face soft and feeling primed but I didn't really see a difference. I may try it again but It's not something I would buy normally.
This mask goes for $2.49 and they have a bunch of different types. I may try one of those.

Native Coconut & Vanilla Deodorant. So I have actually been thinking about trying a different deodorant. I have used Suave for years and I just have been wanting something different. Plus I'm getting to be more aware of what they put into certain products. This one is free of aluminum, parabens, phthalates, and other nasty ingredients. So I was excited to get something I needed but hadn't tried yet. I have been using it every day since I got it. This one isn't a heavy scent just enough to get the point across. It goes on smooth and last a damn good while. I take showers at night and apply it afterward. It gets me through the night and the next day without issues. I didn't have to worry about BO or anything even after an occasional night sweat or a workout it keeps it's under control. I'm really impressed with this and will be buying it again.
This one comes in 6 different scents and goes for $11.99. Which I know if a lot especially if you are used to buying a 2 pack for like $3. However its really better quality and without the bad shit, so it evens it out.
Nexxus Color Assure Vibrancy Retention Shampoo. These are huge sample sizes, based on that alone I was excited to try it. I have long hair so sometimes sample just isn't enough for me to completely test it. The Shampoo is a lusty dream to use. It lathers up with perfection and a little went a long way for me. It also washes out without issue. You think I'm crazy for saying that but I have encountered some shit show products.
Nexxus Color Assure Vibrancy Retention Conditioner. This one I was a little worried about. I used it after the shampoo of course and I always have to use a little more of it. This stuff didn't go on like normal conditioner which had me questioning if I read the bottle wrong. Instead of that smooth feel conditioner gives you when you apply it. It was a little rough kinda like a gel of some kind. I massaged it in, washed it out, and hoped for the best. I towel dried my hair a little and let the rest air dry as per usual. Maybe an hour passed and I felt it. My hair was luscious, soft and didn't have a tangle in sight. I was completely taken back by it, cause I was worried that it wasn't going to be any good. Now I am obsessed and in love. I will be purchase these again cause damn they are fantastic.
You can get the set of both for $28.99, which is a great deal since alone they are about $16.
Dove 2-in-1 Dermcare Scalp Shampoo & Conditioner. I'm a big fan of Dove, both their body care and chocolate. I usually don't bother with 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner. Honestly, it seems like a short cut and a man thing. I say that cause I feel like they design products for men that can be used on their hair, butt, and car. Some products that are designed for women or even unisex just don't work the same. This one was a pleasant surprise. I just had to use it once to do both and it was quite lovely. It was the least hassle I have had with my hair recently. The formula is good and lathered up nicely, not as much as I like it to. It washed out easily. I towel dried my hair then let it air dry. It did leave my hair feeling soft and smooth. Also, it didn't leave me with tangle which is a huge plus for me. This isn't something I would normally buy since I never have an issue with Dandruff but I do get some stress spots sometimes and this would be amazing for that. I would buy this again.
A full size of this goes for $4.89. They also have a version designed for Men, I don't know what that entails or means but ok.
Pantene Airspray Hairspray. Listen I don't really do hairspray. It's sticky and never works on my hair so I just don't bother. I gave this one a try for the sake of this blog. So I usually wear my hair in a high Arianda Grande like ponytail since it's so long. I tried the trick they included on the card, spray it on your hands then pat it on to flyaways to tame them. It did make my hands sticky but not my hair so that was a perk. The product comes out as a slight foam that instantly dissolves. About 30 mins after I did this my hair was crunchy which I hate. It was in place and it smells amazing so I will give it that but I won't be buying this one again. Since I still don't like hair spray.
Full size goes for $4.99.
No7 Laboratories Line Correcting Booster Serum. This was the tiniest thing in the box and it took me a minute to try to figure out what it was. I have heard of this one but not had an urge to try it. The formula is super thin, like almost like a water consistency. It does make it easier to apply in a strange way since it instantly starts soaking in. I can feel the effects of it after a couple mins and my skin is a little softer. After a couple hours, I do get that greasy feeling around my nose which is a big downside. I don't really care for it so I wouldn't buy this one again.
This one is $41.99 for a 0.5 oz tube. Which is insane and another reason I am not buying it again.
Love Beauty and Plant Radical Refresher Uplifting Dry shampoo in Citrus Peel. I love a good dry shampoo, simply because sometimes I just can't wash my hair. My wife is the same way and will try whatever ones I get. Long hair problems are a real thing, people. The list of perks for this one on the back was enough me to impress me before I even used it. I am really into the more natural things without all the bad shit these days. First thing, this stuff smells amazing, I am usually not one for citrus smells but this one is lovely. The instruction says to spray the area then rub it in a little. Which I did and it didn't get any sticky or gross feeling from it. Next, I brushed my hair as you do with any dry shampoo after you let it sit a couple mins. It did leave my hair feeling and looking cleaner. The only issue I had was I feel like it didn't do much on the very front of my hair where my part is. Honestly, that could because I am always touching it. It was so bad that it was noticeable or anything and I would buy this one again.
A full can of this goes for $6.99 and comes in a few different scents. They also have a whole line of product that seems amazing and I may give those a try.

I am extremely pleased with this box. I got a bunch of stuff I have not tried and fell in love with some of it. Plus this isn't one I have to worried about coming out of my account every month since you just order it. So if I decide I don't want to do this I just don't have to order it without any "Are you Sure?" bullshit hassle. I also like that I got a coupon off a target order since there are some EOS I have had in my cart for a couple weeks I need. I really dig this one and will be grabbing on next month. I will review that one sooner so that if you are interested that you have time to grab it. Today is the last day to get this one.
This box goes for $7, which have 2 other one that is $14.99 that have a theme.
