The Beauty Box you can afford. Less than $7 /4 times a year | Of Course from @Walmart ‏#motownmom #selfcare

Yes, I was skeptical when I saw this, but I was like hey, I’ll take one for the team and see what this is all about. I actually am impressed with just less than seven dollars and the pretty bag.

Not as decorative as Ipsy and it has the Walmart decor on the other side, but really pretty to use as junk pocket for a purse.

Winter starting January Summer starting June  
Spring starting March Fall starting September

It’s really how it says. For less than seven dollars for four boxes and you get asked about ten questions about your beauty style prior to paying for anything. That was cool and they sent me what suits me, although my daughter stole my unicorn glow mask. She loved it.

I think you will too.
