October PLAY! by Sephora

This post contains affiliate links.

Happy Halloween!!!

I feel like I have run the gamut of subscription boxes. I have done Glossy Box, Julep Maven, Pop Sugar, Ipsy, BirchBox, and  a few more and I have always gotten burned out on them. I swore off of them after BirchBox and that lasted all of a few weeks until I saw a few beauty bloggers talking about their PLAY! by Sephora boxes. I took a mild interest until I looked it up and saw there was a waiting list and then I was hooked. If there is one thing I can’t stand it’s a waiting list. I want what I want and I want it NOW. Know what I mean?

After two months of waiting I finally got the email that I was off the wait list and would be getting the October PLAY! by Sephora box! I was pumped!! Each box is black and white striped, my absolute fave, and contains a cute baggie full of goodies!! This month’s baggie theme is “Lipstix & Chill”.

You have no idea how pumped I was to get this box. There is just something satisfying about getting off the wait list and getting your first box and then I opened it…

…look at all of those fabulous goodies!!! I got so much great stuff!!

Each box is tailored to each person based on a survey you take when you sign up. I believe there are four versions of each month’s box and you get the one most fitted to you.

So far I have tried the Farmacy Skin Dew Hydrating Essence Mist & Setting Spray, The Estée Edit Flash Photo Gloss, Smashbox Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick, and the Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Framboos™ Glycolic Night Serum and i can honestly say that I love them all! I am especially obsessed with the Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Framboos™ Glycolic Night Serum. I have been wanting to try an overnight product with some retinol in it and I really do love this one! In fact, it may deserve a blog post all on it’s own.

Have you tried PLAY! by Sephora??

    I shop Sephora all the time (way too much), but I have never tried Play! before. It’s a great way to try out new products and I love that the box is customized.

    Oooh how lovely! I’m so jealous of you having a Sephora. It’s definitely something we need here in the UK!

    I must be living in a box, I never knew that Sephora had a subscription box. I think its really cool and I like that you can try out different products before you buy a bunch of them.
