Full Size Value: $15.00 / 6.7 Fl.Oz
Box Value: $3.58 / 1.6 Fl.Oz

Verdict: This smells AMAZING! I love it and I'm definitely going to order more. This smells and feels amazing after the shower!



Product Details: 'In need of a serious pick - me - up? Featuring a combination of age defying active ingredients, Adore Cosmetics' cellmax Elite Facial Serum rejuvenates your tired skin and helps restore what environmental damage and time have taken away'

Full Size Value: $749.95 / 1.7 fl oz
Box Value: $220.57  / 0.5 fl oz

Verdict: Okay, firstly let's talk about the price! I was just as shocked as you..almost $750 for this facial serum! Even the sample is worth over $220..and that it simply crazy! Okay, onto the actual product, I'm glad it's a good sample size..so there is enough to test out the product. I didn't really like the smell, it had a faint perfume smell and I don't want that on my face. It glides on smoothly and it does feel pretty good afterwards too. I wouldn't buy this for that price and even at a lower cost..maybe not even then.



Product Details: 'Removing oils that clog hair follicles and environmental residues from the scalp, Nioxin's therapeutic cleanser and conditioner will balance moisture levels and help locks appear thicker.'

Full Size Value: $49.00 / system kit
Box Size Value: $49.00 / System Kit

Verdict: I think this is the full system, not even sure to be honest. But I never used this because I don't have fine hair..so this will probably be in a giveaway.



Product Details: 'Skin in need of a boost? Talika's Phyto-Hydra Day utilizes an amino-acid that recreates the effects of natural light on the skin so you can sport a summer glow all year long.

Full Size Value: $29.00 / 1.0 fl oz
Box Value: $29.00 / 1.0 fl oz

Verdict: This is a nice skin moisturizer, it was quick to absorb and lightweight. It does have a slight scent to it too. I probably won't be purchasing this again.

Full Size Value: $24.00 / 0.3 fl oz
Box Size Value: $8.00 / 0.1 fl oz

Verdict: I've used this sample before and it's not a bad mascara. I don't love it nor hate it.
Total Box Value: $310.15
