Unboxing My July 2017 Benefit Saladbox + Overall Saladbox Impressions

Unboxing July 2017 Benefit Saladbox Review

Hey, guys! Wanna show you the stuff I got from my July Benefit Saladbox.

For July 2017, subscribers will receive a Benefit exclusive box. Included inside are samples of Benefit's newest launch - the Boi-ing concealers! I got my box a month late (it arrived Sept 2 for me) so I already have an inkling about what I'll get. Let's take a closer look at each of the items.

What's Inside

1. Watt's Up! Highlighter (2.5g fun size, $8 at Benefit website)

Product Description: "Our soft focus highlighter turns on “watt” ya got with a delicate champagne glow that’s gorgeous. The cream-to-powder finish is a switch-on “wow” for all complexions."

Super love that I got this! I really wanted to try this highlighter! The product is in a stick form, making it easy peasy to apply. The shimmers are super tiny. You can layer it multiple times to amp the shine or you can smudge it a little bit for a very healthy and natural-looking glow.

2. It's Potent! Eye Cream (3.0g deluxe sample, $4.9 at Benefit website)

Product Description: "Your eyes can't keep a secret...they're the first to show signs of age & stress. it's potent! eye cream ' fades dark circles & helps smooth fine lines for brighter, younger-looking eyes. Contains a peptide complex known to help restore elasticity & firmness, a blend of hydrating botanical extracts and loquat extract, known to help protect the skin from free radical damage."

Another fave in this box! I've been using this ever since I got it and I can say this eye cream is indeed potent! Haven't seen brightening effects yet from my two weeks of usage but fine lines under my eyes are slowly fading. It's very moisturizing but the cream is light and not heavy at all. It also comes in a very cute glass packaging. I always love how Benefit does their packaging. Even their samples look so pretty!

3. Boi-ing Airbrush Concealer (1.6g fun size, $8 at Benefit website)

Product Description: "Unevenness? Fine lines? Undereye circles? Forget filters…just apply boi-ing airbrush concealer. It’s your “real-life retouch!” This soft-focus, lightweight concealer covers imperfections all over the face with a flawless finish that’s virtually undetectable."

I'm excited to try this concealer since it's a new launch but sad to say, I wasn't able to try it yet. My sample looks like it was used already. I reported it to Saladbox and they said they'll send me another one ASAP. Still waiting for it.
Took this pic immediately after opening. It looks already used, right?
(4) Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer and (5) Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer (0.05 single-use sample sachets)

The last items in my box are these single use sachets of the Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer and the Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer. Haven't tried them yet but I trust that they're good!


Is This Box Worth It?

If we use Benefit's pricing, the value of the box is around $20.90, double the 500 PHP I paid for! In terms of satisfaction, I love all the items inside except for the used concealer. I'm giving this box 4/5 stars! I'm knocking off a star because of the late arrival and the used sample but overall, this box is a hit for me!

One Year with Saladbox

Unboxing Saladbox Review Haul Loot
all of my Saladbox loot!
As you can see, I have amassed a lot of items through Saladbox. Some boxes were hits, some were not that great but overall, I'm glad I was able to try and discover a lot of products and brands through their service. I also got double the money I invested. Can you believe all the stuff above is worth more than 14,000 pesos? It's more than twice the 6,000 pesos I paid for the one-year subscription! If you can be patient and don't mind the shipping delays, Saladbox/Giltbox is a good deal.

This July Benefit box is the last box out of my plan and I'm gonna be sad if I don't get my monthly "presents". Haha. Fortunately for me, Saladbox (now Giltbox) did a BOGO promo where you'll get two boxes per month if you subscribed to their annual plan. I availed of  the promo quick!

I already received the first two boxes of my new Giltbox subscription. Will post my unboxing the next few days. Watch out for it!
