NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018

A New Year brings me a New NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018. Happy New Year #BeautyBagDolls! I am excited to kick off my blog reviews for you in 2018 with the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 2018. This box of goodies arrived at the end of December which ment I had several days to try them out before the New Year. I am so excited to tell you that this NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018 has 10 total product 7 of which are full size! Read on to learn more.
The NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018 is the best way to start the year! So many favorites! 

There were several products in the NewBeauty TestTube I was excited about and the first one is the Hourglass Ambient Light Correcting Primer this is a full size tube of primer that will neutralize and bring luminosity to your skin. Just apply this to your skin before makeup and it will instantly bring a soft radiance to your dull skin and this is what my skin needs during this cold harsh winter.  Next was a full size Linhart Toothpaste . This was new too me but I was excited to try it out. I noticed it smelled yummy and tasted yummy as well. After using my teeth were cleaned and polished without feeling irritated. The tube was very different looked more like a tube of hand cream than toothpaste. A very unique fun design as well as effective dental care. The third product is so cute I see it as a two part sample. I love the makeup bag Neocell included as well as the sample packtes of their Neocell Cermide Skin Hydrator. These caplets were and easy to swallow caplet that helps to plump your skin with hydration. I didn't have an upset stomach after taking these so I will be purchasing the full size right after I am done with my current vitamins. The fourth product was a full size My Looking Glass Studio Lights Liquid Shadow in the beautiful shade of light bronze. This was my favorite part of my routine because it was the quickest thing. I just dabbed a bit of this onto my lid and blended it out quickly with my ring finger. It was a beautiful shade. The fifth product was yet another full size product, I mean NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018 is something I am addicted to a Purifying Mud Mask from Absolute Natural. The brand is new to me but I am so happy to be introduced to it! I have acne prone skin so my pores do get clogged and this truly detoxed my skin and I only needed to use it twice a week however after one use my skin was bright and didn't feel dried out like with other mud masks. Defiantly repurchasing this to fuel my mask addiction.

The next product in this jam packed TestTube is the It's A 10 Silk Express Miracle Silk Leave In. I am a huge fan of It's A 10 and this product was one I never tried before and now I am addicted. My hair felt hydrated and very soft after using this leave in and I am putting this on my list to repurchase. If you have been reading my blog posts throughout the years you know how much I love a lip product and I am thrilled that NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018 included one I received the Starlooks Velveteen Ultra Longwear Matte Lip Paint which is absolutely perfect because it is a longwear perfectly pigmented lip paint. It doesn't budge for hours so I used it for my New Years Eve party since I knew I would have time to reapply lip color. This too was another full size product. Now if you are worried about your neck area then the TestTube has you concerns in mind. The Z Skin Neck Firming Cream has SPF 4 along with Shea butter and vitamin E to help you neck look fabulous. This too was another full size goodie. The final full size product is the Biosilk Volumizng Therapy Texturizing Powder. I thought I had already had my texturizing powder until this one came into my life. This smells wonderful and goes to work instantly giving my hair volume right at the root. The final product is the Truist Skincare Lotion-Infused Moisturizing Gloves these are a hand savoir for me at this time of the year. My hands are taking a beating with this dry, cold weather and my hands suffer the most. Well now these gloves rescued them in just 15 minutes. Slip these on and relax as the avocado and jojoba oil go to work to nourish your dry hands instantly.

I am so glad I got to try out 10 products from the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 January 2018 you have to try this sampling program out! I give this TestTube 2.0 a 5 $$$$$ because it is wide variety of beauty products from skincare to haircare along with so 7 FULL SIZE Goodies this month! You will be really happy to discover something new so pick it up today before it sells out and I am already excited for the next!

NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 September 2017

Hello #BeautyBagDolls Happy September 1st I am so excited to bring you my first review of the month and for it to be from NewBeauty makes it that much better! NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 September 2017 is packed with 10 products and lots of the are full size goodies. To learn more about what's inside this month TestTube 2.0 read on.
The best subscription sample box out there! I love NewBeauty's TestTube 2.0!

The first product inside the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 September 2017 is the full size dermaTRUTH Gel/Crème this is an amazing moisturizer for me since I have been feeling a little dry and to try this out was a dream. It wasn't to thick or greasy and absorbed quickly. The second product is yet another full size one it is the Bellapierre Cosmetics Mineral Blush which was a beautiful addition to my blush collection since the color is one I did not have yet. Autumn Glow gave me a natural flush of color that did not over power my face. The TestTube was truly packed because the third product was yet another full size product it was the Manna Kadar Glo Illuminator and I am a real fan of illuminators and this one I could mix into my foundation or wear alone which is what I do all the time and this one is great since I could use it on my face or anywhere on my body to add a nice glow to my skin. The fourth product is Life's Abundance Plant Protein Powder and Minerals & Antioxidants. This really tasted good and was easy to mix up I likes using it on the go while at work since it did give me a boost of energy. Next in TestTube 2.0 was the Lumene Lahde Micellar Cleansing Water. I am a big fan of micellar waters and this one was really nice it was fragrance free which is what I  prefer and it really did remove my makeup well without leaving it feeling tight or dry.

Another product which is from a company that is new to me was The Preserve Company Steep Me Like Tea Bath Tea which is an Epsom salt that was scented with peppermint and chamomile. That is wonderful way to end a long day and if my body is feeling sore this is the first thing I grab and thanks to NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 they introduced me to a great new company! Next is the Chuda Healing Hydrating Cream this is a small sample but it take very little of this multitasking balm to help heal your chapped lips or dry cuticles. I also like patting some if this in around my eyes to smooth out any fine lines. The eighth product is a full size Osmosis Skincare Eye Shadow Trio in the shade Impulse. I love this trio because it give you the perfect shades for a smokey eye and everything you need is in one place. This didn't irritate my eye or travel down my face. Next I received a one ounce size of the Epionce Lytic Gel Cleanser which is perfect for me since it was good for my combination skin which is what I have going on. This gently cleansed my skin without leaving it feeling dry. This is perfect size to take with me on business trips for work without sacrificing good skincare. Finally my NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 September 2.0 had sheet mask from Leaders Cosmetics and I received the Balance Recovery Mask which is just what I need since it treats blemishes, oily skin  and redness that describes my skin to the last word. This mask is awesome it just stays in place and balanced my skin. Its the 15-20 minutes I get to relax when I use it! I am a huge fan of sheet masks and I love NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 September 2017 for putting this one in for me.

I am so glad I got to try out 10 products from the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 September 2017 you have to try this sampling program out! I give this TestTube 2.0 a 5 $$$$$ because it is wide variety of beauty products from skincare to makeup along with so many FULL SIZE Goodies this month!

NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 July 2017

#BeautyBagDolls I am so thrilled to be sharing the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 for July 2017. This one for me is such a winner since each and every product inside has helped made my summer beauty care routine a little bit easier! When I opened this TestTube 2.0 I was excited, it was packed with 9 products that were useful to me during the summer months and solved some beauty issues. Read on to find out what's inside and how I they helped me.
I am loving this months TestTube and will be purchasing a few of these again!

First product is the Jersey Shore Cosmetics My Lash Secret Eyelash Curler, this was a great eye lash curler in fact its one of the best ones I tried in a long time since I have strayed away from the lately. This one did not pull or tug my lashes nor did I lose any in the process. I love it so I can recommend it to all of you. Next is something I tired within minutes of opening my TestTube it is the LXMI Pure Nilotica Melt. I have been hearing about this brand a lot lately but I had not yet had the chance to try it until now and WOW I read how it is a one ingredient folula that begins as a sily butter but melts into an oil. It said it was for a dry skin that is damaged or just need deep nourishing. I have been spending lots of time outside and at the beach which has in all honesty effected my lips the most and I use sun protection balms but they don't seem to work so I took a little bit of the LXMI Pure Nilotica Melt and put it on my lips and within 15 minutes the dryness they had been feeling disappeared I also tapped a little bit of this on my elbows just to soften them up and I am like WOW and totally in love. Do have 30 minutes to spare? If you do and I hope you do grab the Rodial Snake Neck Mask because it will smooth, tighten and hydrate your neck. This was an easy mask to apply and wear I could still get stuff done around my house this mask does not slip off or come off until you do. I could see that my neck was smooth and hydrated immediately after removing. I am huge fan of hand cream and I love one I grab with me on the go so the hey honey Hands On Honey & Propolis Hand Cream is just what I need I can really go through them since I apply it a few times a day so this one was a welcomed one. I have heard of this brand but tried it for the first time through the TestTube 2.0 and I am in love the scent is not over powering and the results are awesome. Soft supple hands that feel silky and not greasy.

The next two products are the Symphony Beauty Facial Cleansing Foam & Makeup Cleansing Wipes.  I am girl who love her cleansing foam and this one was amazing gentle on my skin and effective in removing the makeup, dirt and grime from the day. The makeup wipes are just as good and they removed the stubborn eye makeup with ease. These are two new favorites. I am obsessed with eye shadow and a palette is even better! First off you can take one palette with you on vacation and have every shade you need and you get to pack light double win but the TestTube 2.0 packing Skinn Cosmetics Patina Eye Shadow really made my day. I have heard of the Skinn brand but never used it and this was a great first product to try. The eye shadow is pigmented and show up with just one swipe its a real winner. The Moroccanoil Treatment Light is the perfect product for my hair which has been a little more dry lately with all the swimming I am doing. This really brought it  back to life without leaving it feeling greasy like other treatment oils. The ScarAway Silicone Scar Sheet are a welcomed product sin it helps fade nicks and cuts that scared you and it works on new or old scars which for me is great since I have an old scar on my knee from Surfing and cutting my knee on a rock. This was the perfect product for this scar since its not the worse scar I have so I could give this a test and it works the scar faded and is hardly noticeable now which impresses me so much. The final product in the NewBeauty TestTube is the June Jacobs Brightening Moisturizer. I am always looking for a good moisturizer and find a summer time one is hard, they are always to thick for me until now and this one brightens my face which makes me very happy.

I am so happy I got to try out 10 products from the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 July 2017 you have to try this sampling program out! I give this TestTube 2.0 a 5 $$$$$ because it is wide variety of beauty products from skincare to makeup ! You will be really happy to discover something new so pick it up today before it sells out and I am already excited for the next!

New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 Takeover September 2016

Hello to all of my gorgeous #BeautyBagDolls I have a very special review for you from New Beauty. It is their September 2016 TestTube and it was a take over from It's a 10. The TestTube was filled with 8 products from the It's a 10. This is an awesome brand that will care for your hair! I am a long hair girl who is always on the hunt for the next best hair product to keep my long locks healthy and styled just right! I was super excited when I opened the TestTube and laid my eyes on 3 full size It's a 10 and 5 generous sample/travel size products. This is a TestTube I cannot stop smiling about or using for that matter!  Buy yours and learn more about New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 takeover September 2016.

The New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 Takeover is a full of beauty bag musts!


I know you want to know what exactly is inside and if I loved it because I have never used the It's a 10 brand until now! The first product is the it's a 10 Miracle Whipped Shampoo this is a full size product you will receive in your TestTube and it is amazing! Smells great and truly cleans your hair with out drying it out! I love it so much! It is "chock-full of good-for-your-hair ingredients like protein and phytonutrients, this sulfate-free offering safely cleanses hair without stripping any color." Next is the It's a 10 Miracle Defrizzing Gel an it is a miracle because it controls frizz instantly on days that I curl my hair I add this and I have perfectly curled hair with out any frizz! "This lightweight, never greasy gel makes flyaways and unwanted frizz things of the past while its formula imparts just the right amount of shine." I will not curl my hair without this and you get a full size in your TestTube.  Next is the It's a 10 Miracle Styling Balm and I don't want to say that this is my most favorite styling product from It's a 10 but its pretty close because OMG my hair looks so perfect! I smooth this onto my hair after its towel dried and then style and my hair looks and feels amazing! It doesn't feel done just soft and it has bounce! "Reduce breakage, hydrate your hair and protect your color with this post-wash balm that delivers the perfect amount of volume that your strands won’t be able to live without." I will not be without this and I am so happy this was the third full size product in the TestTube.  The next two products are generous sample sizes of the It's a 10 Miracle Moisture Shampoo and It's a 10 Miracle Daily Conditioner. These are both so good for your hair and smell amazing. The shampoo left my hair clean, shiny and soft while the conditioner did not weight my hair down like others instead it left my hair feeling smooth! It's a 10 Miracle Moisture Shampoo is "much like a green juice for your hair, this good-for-all-hair-types shampoo boasts 10 incredible nutrients to repair and prevent damage from the inside out."  It's a 10 Miracle Daily Conditioner is "your lifeline for unruly hair (think dry, over-processed or coarse), this do-it-all conditioner infuses locks with amino acids and vitamins to gently bring it back to life." I love packing these to with me when I am traveling. They are the perfect size to take with you and still have your favorite haircare products with you.

The next three products are very nice size travel size products as well that will last you long enough to know if you want to buy a full size which I do and I will be purchasing. The It's a 10 Potion 10 Miracle Styling Potion is "the ultimate weapon for anyone who constantly styles their hair, this weightless cream goes on smooth and leaves hair baby-soft, ridding any evidence of breakage after just one use." I can agree with the statement 100% because my hair feels so soft and I have only used this a few times since receiving it! Now for anyone with dry hair like mine which seems to happen instantly when fall arrives I have the perfect product for you. The It's a 10 Miracle Leave-in Product is a spray you just spritz onto you wet hair and it adds shine and moisture without weighing your hair down at all! I will always take this with me even when I travel because it protects your hair aganst thermal heat damage. It is "a cult classic for a reason, this multi-use leave-in product tackles a bevy of different hair issues, delivering both immediate and long-term results with each use."  Finally, It's a 10 Miracle Hair Mask will add shine and hydrate your hair all while detangling in about 3 minutes if your in hurry or leave it in for 15 then rinse for amazing hair that has body and shine! I love this product so much I am purchasing the full size! I cannot live without these products and I am so happy I got to try them all out from New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 Takeover September 2016 you have to try this sampling program out! I give this TestTube a 5 $$$$$ because it is a deal for amazing haircare products and the next one coming out in November 2016 will change everything it is called 2.0 New Beauty TestTube promising to be "Bigger Tube. More Products. Even better solutins than before." I must say I am excited!

Extra Love From Anna:  I must give extra love to a sampling program that includes full size product that are just amazing for the price! The It's a 10 takeover is a great collaboration and I am glad it happened because it introduced me to a brand I never tried and now I love it! I hope that New Beauty TestTube does a Takeover TestTubeagain with a makeup brand they featured in the past like It Cosmetics or Tarte. I look forward to the TestTube 2.0 debuting in November 2016. I want to thank New Beauty for sending me the September 2016 TestTube to review for all of you! New Beauty your generosity is amazing thank you and Thank you to Nicole!
