I have raved before about Lip Delivery Nutrition by Intelligent Nutrients, so I was delighted to receive a new tube of it! Here's what I said before:
Intelligent Nutrients Certified Organic 100% Nontoxic Plant Chemistry Lip Delivery Nutrition (whew! say all that in one breath!). Not waxy and with penetrating moisture. I always like it when I can trust a lip product to be safe since I know I'll wind up eating 5 pounds of it. It has a slight tingly feel reminiscent of Carmex. I keep a tube of this next to the bed for my nightly balm needs. I will never buy a tube of Chapstick again.
WHOA! I didn't know THIS- I just thought it was an awesome lip balm! According to the company:
"Product Description
INVIGORATING NUTRITION-PACKED EMOLLIENTS FEED DRY LIPS WITH ANTIOXIDANT INTELLIMUNE® SEED OIL COMPLEX.
Think about it—we ingest our lip products every time we lick our lips. One of the fastest ways we absorb substances into our blood is through sublingual assimilation. It only makes sense that we formulate all lip products with nutrition, rather than harmful synthetic ingredients, petrolatum, mineral oil or lead.Our super-antioxidant Intellimune® Seed Oil Complex—an anti-aging, synergistic blend of black cumin, pumpkin, red grape, red raspberry and cranberry seed oils—comprises 20% of the total composition of our lip balm. The other nutritious food ingredients are coconut, sunflower seed, castor seed and palm kernel oils. Lip Delivery Nutrition® — providing nutrition and antioxidants both externally and internally every time you lick your lips."
WOW, now I love it even more. SWEET.
There is a sample jar of Big Girl Cosmetics Diva Gloss in Bling Diva. Per their site
"Diva Gloss for the Diva in You! When only the best will pass the test. We've paired high shine and great shades to create the ultimate lip gloss. This is the ultra-brilliant formula that delivers transparent shine, sensuous shimmer, and sumptuous shades. Super-easy to apply in its very own applicator tube. Just gloss and go. All colors provide a hint of color with long-lasting, non-stick shine! " I haven't used it yet, but I love the smell and I think it's a great sparkly shade. They are theoretically a brand for women of color, but my albino booty thinks it looks delightful anyway! They have the Diva Gloss line currently on sale at Big Girl Cosmetics.

Upon application I wasn't sure what I thought of it. At first the blue seemed too 'solid' and hard edged. As soon as I blended it though, it took on a softer blur, and after putting on the silverygrey and blending them together at the edges it was transformed.I went from not particularly caring for it to loving it in a few short minutes. Not for the meek, this is really well suited to a more glam evening look.
From Myfaceworks there were 2 disposable paper face masks. They are individually wrapped and you open them up and put them on your face for 15-20 minutes. I have to admit that after applying my mask, I was so amused by how funny it looked that I laughed to the point of now having a sore throat. The husband said that the sight of my hysterically cackling with this on my face gave him the uber-creeps and when I held up a mirror to see for myself, it made me laugh even harder! We're broke this week, we have to get our kicks however we can :-) So despite looking like the daughter in Franju's Eyes Without A Face I was able to relax and enjoy once the hysteria wore off. I got 2 masks, one I Need To Heal mask (which is what I used today) and one I Need A Quickie mask. It felt extremely cool and refreshing upon application and it felt like I was letting my skin take a nap. I decided to leave it on longer than 15-20 minutes, I left it for about 30 minutes. It was so moisturizing and refreshing that it seemed safe to do. most masks leave the skin tight, but this left it feeling soft and nourished. Afterwards I applied my Veda Sun Calendula & Rosehip serum and my face feels like it got it's own individual 8 hours of sleep.

Last but not least, there was a scent sample from Cherry City Bath & Body. I am SO there. The sample I got was a scent called Angel Food Cake and manohmanohman! It smells soooooo good! I immediately had to go to their website to check them out and am planning on purchasing from there the nanosecond I get paid! They have over 200 scents to choose from to customize your bath and body products. I am particularly intrigued by the cuticle oil. I've never gotten to have blissfully scented nail oil before!
Enter code SAMPLE131 at checkout along with scent choice in comments for a free After 5 roll with purchase (a $10 value). If the products themselves are anywhere near as good as the smell, they've got a fan for life! Check 'em out HERE
So once again, I was really happy with My Pretty Pink Box! (link to right of screen)
