Lip Monthly October 2020 Review:

Lip Monthly sends all your lippies inside the cutest little makeup bag each month. This bag has a fun design but the quality of this month’s bag feels cheap. It feels more like plastic, is very thin and see-through.

Inside my package was a card highlighting the brands that I received this month.

JERSEY SHORE COSMETICS Moisture Rich Hydrating Balm, Juicy Strawberry – retail value $10 USD

Formulated with all-natural ingredients to bring extreme hydration to your lips and other body parts. In seconds you will experience softer skin. Use on chapped lips, cheeks, fingers, and noses. Scented with essential oils and natural flavors.

Gluten-free, petroleum-free, cruelty-free, and made in the USA, without the use of parabens, phthalates, artificial flavors, and petrochemicals.

#GIVE THEM LALA BEAUTY Matte Lipstick, Queen – retail value $16 USD

This lightweight and cruelty-free matte lipstick is made with a formula that dries down matte and leaves your lips flawless and kissable. It is smudge-proof for long-lasting, beautiful lips. I could not find this colour on their website but it is a very pretty rich pink colour.

Bellápierre Kiss Proof Lip Crème, Rose Petal – retail value $20 USD

A rich, full-coverage liquid lipstick that is supposed to last for hours. It goes on smooth but dries to a matte finish. With such a rich pigmented colour you need a steady hand while applying, something I need to work on. This was not my favorite colour, but will be perfect to gift to a friend.

Rose Petal – deep mauve

Doucce Lip Definer Pencil, Estella – retail value $20 USD

You will love this velvety smooth and waterproof lip definer for use on your entire lip. It glides on without tugging or pulling and it will keep your lips looking beautiful for hours without smearing.

Estella – rosy-brown that looks natural when applied

Total retail value… $66 USD

Verdict: I have been receiving Lip Monthly for a few months now and each month I find at least 2 items that I love. This month my favorite items are the delicious Jersey Shore strawberry lip balm (I can never have enough of this during the cold dry winter months up in Canada) and the Doucee liner (it glides on so smooth and ads a little extra subtle pop for my lips). For only $12.95 (or only $5 for your first bag) this is a great way to find fun, new lip or makeup products that I normally would never try. It is a way to burst out of my bubble and sample multiple products at an affordable price.

Verdict: Each month I love getting this pretty, affordable bag in my mailbox. I love the cutesy, fun saying and designs from month to month. This month I definitely was most excited about the Unicorn Snot lip gloss and Seraphine Botanicals lip exfoliator. The Unicorn Snot will be a great stocking stuffer for my daughter. She will love it! The Seraphine Botanicals lip scrub is highly rated and at $24 USD that alone is well over the cost of my bag. Even with some of the items not being to my personal taste, I do have friends that I know will love them. I feel like, you can’t go wrong with getting your first bag for $5 USD and free shipping!

DOCK & BAY Quick Dry Towel – $33

A quick drying beach towel that absorbs more than twice its weight in water. It folds up small for easy transportation to the beach, poolside, camping, backpacking or wherever you want to take it. When you’re the beach sand won’t stick to it and best of all even after many uses it will still be odor-free!

Verdict: I have been lucky enough to receive a few Nature’s Wellness Boxes over the past few months and I must say this is my favorite box of theirs yet! I do follow them on Facebook, so often I know more or less what types of items will be inside the box before I even receive it. Needless to say, I was so happy when I got the Dock & Bay Quick Dry Towel. This quick dry towel is awesome! It is huge, so soft and pink, my favorite colour! I love it! I see so many great uses for it. From camping, swimming lessons for the kids and for those few rare times when we go to the beach (there aren’t many beaches close by where we live). Another item that I couldn’t wait for was the routine natural deodorant. It is locally made from a company in my city and I have been lucky enough to try it multiple times over the last few years. This sample pack is exactly what I need. Everyone’s body reacts differently to deodorants, so this is the perfect opportunity to find my favorite scent that works best for my body. The value of this month’s box for me was worth every penny! I fell in love with a few new great items and was reacquainted with a familiar brand that I had forgotten how much I loved.
