Walmart Box: Winter

Now I know it isn't winter anymore, but the Walmart Box is still one of my favorites so I wanted to make sure and get it up anyway!

This box is only $5 and comes once a season, so if you are looking for an affordable option that gives the most bang for your buck I highly suggest this!

I also thought this box was even prettier than the past few ones!  When they started this program they had a very basic box, but now they are getting prettier and better themed with each season!  I really liked the snowflakes on the paper, super cute.

This is the Dove Nutrium Moisture body wash.  If you remember, I also got this sample in my Amazon box, so Dove was really trying to promote this product this winter!  As I said before, it feels soft and moisturizing, and it makes a ton of bubbles!  I remember my grandmother using a similar body wash when I was little, so I can't figure out if this is a rerelease or the same product or what, but that's all I can think of!

This is the Pond's Rejuvenss Anti-Wrinkle Cream.  I've always seen this product in the travel section at Walmart but I hadn't ever tried it!  It is a nice size and the cutest little jar in my opinion!  I have been using it at night since receiving it and though I don't really have any wrinkles to correct right now it is always good to be ahead of the game!  It is nice and moisturizing, but doesn't feel super greasy.

This is the Dove Advanced Care baby deodorant in a scent similar scent to Cucumber Melon.  I can always use more baby deodorants, so I was happy to get this!  They are perfect for travel.

This is the Curél Hydratherapy Wet Skin Moisturizer.  I have tried a few wet skin moisturizers now and I'm just not sure what I think about them in general... They feel a little weird to me, and I don't know how to let myself air-dry in a dorm or public showers, so it just feels like I am wiping it off when I try to dry off a little bit.

This Covergirl Lash Blast Volume is like one of the OG mascaras!  I have actually never tried this one, and have yet to open it because I literally have like eight open right now...  I looked it up just to see the internet's opinion on it and it has over 10,000 reviews with 4.4 stars!  That is incredibly impressive, and I can't wait until one of my mascaras dries up and I can open it with a clear conscious.

This is the Garnier Whole Blends Green Apple and Green Tea Shampoo and Conditioner.  I think this whole campagin is a bit odd honestly... It looks very 90s, and not in a great way.  Looking at the entire line makes me like it more, just maybe not this specific set.

I think this was a pretty cool things to include in the box!  It is a dollar off coupon for three of the most popular gossip magazines, InStyle, People, and StyleWatch.  I don't generally sit down to read magazines, but they are good for a while so I'll probably save them for vacation!

Overall this was a pretty cool box!!  I have been regularly using the face cream, am happy to have the deodorant, and can't wait to use the mascara!  Also, the mascara alone was like $6, so that pretty much paid for the box on its own!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Girls Night In!

Time to unwind with a girls night!  If you are like me and my adorable roomie, you just completed a week of mind numbing midterms and you need to unwind.   Priority number one is getting into the comfiest possible clothes that you own, bonus points if you have super cute matching pjs unlike me... My top pick is my boyfriends flannel (which is huge on me! <3) and leggings with fuzzy socks.   If you want to go the comfy but cute route, Adore Me has sleepwear ranging from sexy slips and camis if you are having a night in with your significant other, cute sweats for a girls night like we are having, and robes if you just need something to cuddle up in and be extra cozy! I highl y reccomend them!  And, just like with their bra and panty sets, your first set is only $25! Step two is to slap on a face mask! In the picture above I am wearing the Glam Glow SuperMud, which is not pictured because I only have a small Sephora sample, but it work...
