Review: BeautyBar.com Sample Society Box

Review: Sample Society Box

I have reviewed other mystery box subscription services on here before, so you all know how much I love a good mystery box!  The Sample Society Box costs $15 and contains high end beauty samples and a code for $15 off the purchase of featured products. I was thrilled when they offered to provide a complimentary box for me to review.

As taken from their website, each box contains:

For $15 a month, you'll receive:

• 5 deluxe-sized samples from beauty brands like Murad, Stila, and Oscar de la Renta fragrance.
• $15 gift code to redeem on a $50 purchase - when any product from the brands you've sampled is included in your order.
• Expert beauty advice to accompany your samples from the editors of Allure.
• A bonus one-year subscription to Allure magazine
  ($12 value)* *See Allure magazine offer and refund details here.

In preparing for this review, I searched for the contents of previous boxes and what others thought of their boxes. I have to say that some of my favorite beauty products were in earlier boxes, such as Fekkai glossing cream. I don't think that they skimped on providing good quality products!

So what did I receive in a box this month?!

Oscar Blandi Jasmine Oil Hair Serum Deluxe Sample

Boscia Purifying Cleansing Gel Deluxe Sample

By Terry Echantillon Creme de Rose Deluxe Sample

Murad Hybrids Acne Primer Deluxe Sample

DDF Amplifying Elixir Deluxe Sample

These products are awesome! I love hair products that are not too unnatural or sticky, so the Oscar Blandi Jasmine Oil Hair Serum was something that I would normally use. I also get acne few days each month, so the Boscia Purifying Cleansing Gel and the Murad Hybrids Acne Primer work well together for me.  DDF is one of my favorite beauty brands, so I also liked the Aplifying Elixir.  The By Terry Enchantillon Creme de Rose was not something that I would normally use, but it was cool to have a a small sample size to use.   Overall, I felt that the samples were worth $15 for the stuff that I would use. How about you? Would you happily use all 5 of the products? What would you use your $15 off of $50 coupon on?

Finally, I want to comment on how great their customer service was. I emailed a question and received a response within a day.  They clearly communicated the shipping date, tracking information, and contents in advance. I could log onto their website to check the status of my order at any time.  I feel like too many companies have developed poor customer service as the economy got worse, so I really like when I come across companies like this that are professional and customer-focused when I interact with them.
