Tag: Play! by Sephora January 2016

Once again, I shall walk you through the fabulous Sephora playbook that comes with my $10 subscription box. Please don't hate me for somehow being lucky enough to get this box… but I heard that some others are starting to get off the wait list?!?! Living Proof Prime Style Extender Spray - I've used this once (paired with Living Proof Perfect Hair Day 5-in-1 Styling Treatment - also using for the first time) and I'm on day 3 of silky smooth hair! I don't know how much is the spray vs. the Perfect Hair Day cream… but I'm thrilled! dr. brandt needles no more wrinkle relaxing cream - I've gotten this sample before in a different sub box but didn't finish it. I only used it twice and then stopped b/c I didn't really notice "instant smoothing of expression lines" but after getting this from Sephora, I've decided to give it a second chance and at least finish up my open sample. Clinique Chubby Stick Sculpting Highlight - I don't use highlighter often but I've been trying it more and I love the color of this one on my fair pink-toned skin! I also love the diagram in the booklet showing how to use it since yes, there are still many people out there who have no idea. :) Sephora Eye Mask - As you can see in the picture, I received Lotus which "locks in water to to reduce the signs of fatigue and strain for fresh, stress-free, and rested eyes". I haven't tried it yet but I love sheet masks and I love eye masks… so I'm sure I'll like it! Dr. Dennis Gross alpha beta peel - I love the alpha beta glow pads / face self-tanner from Dr. Dennis Gross so I'm excited to try these too! TOCCA Isabel Eau de Parfum - I'm not usually thrilled to get perfumes samples (especially with the little caps that almost always end up spilling all over when I open it… give the little spray bottles please!!) but since it's the 6th sample in my Sephora box, I didn't mind. And then I smelled it… I LOVE it! I can't remember the last time I loved a perfume - I'm so picky! I loved it when I first put it an on and I'm loving it an hour later. It's definitely a floral / rose type scent so I'm sure others will hate it, but I'm so happy with it! My favorite page in this month's booklet is the "Skincare Goes Full Circle" that explains the order in which to use skincare products - genius! It doesn't include everything (for example, what about face oils? but those actually depend on the type of oil so maybe too hard to explain on the wheel). But I was definitely doing a couple of things out of order - oops! The wheel may not be the end-all-be-all, definitive order in which products must be applied but still very helpful! "The 6 Tips for Wonderful Winter Skin" is also a nice touch and of course my Play! Pass for a complimentary one-on-one session in store. I admit I haven't taken advantage of these at all yet… but maybe one day. Overall, I love my Play! box again this month and hope all of you get off the wait list ASAP!
