Well, just to muddle the waters a bit--and this is in NO way to disparage the beauty boxes AT ALL--here's an example of some things I picked up yesterday:
Butter London nail strips in Leopard--ARV $10
Tresemme travel-size shampoo/conditioner--ARV $1.98
Burt's Bees Tips and Toes Kit--ARV $13, contains
Rimmel Glam'Eyes Day 2 Night Mascara--ARV $8
- Almond Milk Hand Creme (0.25 oz)
- Hand Salve (0.3 oz)
- Thoroughly Therapeutic Honey & Grapeseed Hand Creme (0.75 oz)
- Coconut Foot Creme (0.75 oz)
- Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream (0.3 oz)
- Replenishing Lip Balm (0.15 oz)
Now, yes, the majority of these items ARE drugstore (although the higher-quality drugstore items), but this was just a completely unplanned shopping trip (aka I did not bring any coupons with me) where I purchased several items I have not yet tried--and my total cost before tax was $8.35--less than the cost of ANY of the beauty boxes and with an ARV of $32.98 with at least one full-size item. Not bad when compared to some of the beauty boxes we've gotten, eh?
maybe. Im thinking about swaping one of them, but Idk yet. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />Originally Posted by eclipsechick08 /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Will you be keeping both Stila Bronzes? *hopeful lol
Yep, you saw my FB post about it; the Butter London strips were ULTA clearance for $5, which is how I got to the final total /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />Originally Posted by Playedinloops /img/forum/go_quote.gif

E I am totally disappointed by the value difference. This was my first box and I received box 16. I was so upset. I opened it at my mothers thinking how much she loves samples and might be interested in joining birchbox. She said there would no she would pay $10 for what I received in my box. I'll give it another month or two. If it doesn't improve I guess I'll ask for a refund. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />Do the drastic price differences bother anyone else? $16 then $50? Really?

I have medium skin tone, but on the lighter side. I used one towelette for both legs. I got a nice even color, and its not orange, but I do wish it was a little darker tan. I will have to use another on my chest and arms so I can matchBut overall, they worked for me and I recommend them for medium ladies. Although there is nothing intense about it, so I don't know why fair skinned gals cant use them. I say go for it, you may surprise yourself and like it!
Side note: I also have a St. Tropez self tanner and it works just as well as these towelettes, however I have to use A LOT of the self tanner (since its a lotion) to get the same effect.
Oh, and it took over a few hours for the final color to show/settle. So after an hour, I was like 'thats it?' but now looking at my legs they are a nice tan
