I got my Sephora October Play Box on Friday and I thought I’d do a quick unboxing and mini review for you to share my thoughts on this month’s box! I missed out on doing the September unboxing as time got away with me! Sorry about that.

Let’s take a look at the Play by Sephora Box for October below!

The contents include:

Tom Ford Orchid Soleil Perfume (.05 oz)
Verb Leave-in Mist (1 oz)
Too Cool for School All-In-One Egg Mellow Cream (0.21 oz)
Skin Inc Pure Revival Peel (0.17 oz)
NudeStix Intense Matte Lip & Cheek Pencil in Belle
Smashbox Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick in Driver’s Seat

This month’s box took away many of my complaints about the last few boxes, that compliant being that they contents are of products that are older or ones we’ve seen over and over again as samples and in other boxes. This month, they took the initiate to include something fairly new which was the Smashbox Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick. These new lipsticks just launched this Fall! My biggest rant about the Sephora Play Boxes is the fact they include older products that I’ve already tried. I personally think the box should be about introducing us to new items which is why I was happy they took the initiative to include the new Smashbox lipstick! I hope they continue to do this in the future.

I was also more than pleased with the skincare offerings in this box since I hadn’t tried either before. I was particularly curious about the Too Cool for School All-in-One Egg Mellow Cream which is a firming moisturizing that contains collagen. It’s been on my wish list a while so, I’m happy to be able to try a sample pout. I was also happy about the addition of Tom Ford’s newest fragrance, Orchid Soleil, although I think this would have been better suited to include in a Summer box.

The only item I didn’t love was the Leave-In Mist. I’m just not one to get excited about hair care! I wish they’d customize the boxes to not include hair care for those that aren’t interested.

All in all, for ten bucks, this month’s Sephora Play Box wasn’t too bad a box! Things seem to be picking up slowly and I have nothing major to complain about with this box. Considering I’ve only complained and ranted each box since starting my subscription this is good news right?
