April Skincare RX Cache

This is what I received in my April Skincare RX Beauty Cache.  Each one is different though, so what you get may not be the same. (Though they do make them all of the same monetary value)  To give you an idea of the value of the Beauty Cache, the full sized Glytone cleanser I received costs as much as the price for the entire cache. Many of these serums and treatments in a full size retail in the $150 range. This is easily a few hundred dollars worth of stuff.

They seem to no longer be including the full size Kinaerase Serum, but for $29.95, this is still totally worth it. I have spent a lot more than that to get a sampler from Beauty.com or whomever that didn't include NEARLY this much stuff. For a while they weren't letting these be purchased on their own, they were only available with a $100 purchase, but they are selling them again at $29.95. You can still get one FREE with a $100 purchase, however. You do have to go through this link to get the deal though.
