Beauty Box 5
We're a beauty sampling subscription box that sends you 5 deluxe samples from our favorite brands every month for $12. We're constantly on a quest to find the perfect lipstick.
Bliss in blue and magenta.
Hope you’re sitting down. February’s Sneak Peek is coming soon, and babes, it’s gonna be FULL-SIZE!!!
Spotted at BB5 HQ: our beauty resolutions right where we can see them so we don’t forget! 😉
What are yours this year, BB5 Babes?
New Year’s Eve is all about shining bright, but you don’t have to overthink it! Get sparkly in a flash with the Nanacoco glitter polishes (a favorite in this month’s box!) and you’ll be party ready in no time! As for the rest of your ensemble, we love pairing a show-stopping nail with elevated basics, like-
1. A sassy bold lip that’ll stay put even after a kiss at midnight! Our current crush is Elizabeth Arden’s Amethyst (and it’s on sale, too!).
2. A simple but perfect little black dress that you can wear again and again after the confetti falls, like this pretty number from Modcloth.
3. A celebration on your arm- literally!- with this festive cuff from Ban.do.
4. Black pumps that make a statement with some sassy gold snake print and a chain ankle strap- plus, did we mention they’re from Target and totally a steal?
5. Look-at-me-lashes without the hassle! LashEM’s Extensions in A Bottle will wow you and your makeup look into the New Year- no falsies necessary.
Be safe and be well! We’ll see you in 2015 with a whole lot more sparkle up our sleeves, too.
Xoxo,
The BB5 Team
We’re dreaming of a teal Christmas. 💙💚
How is it December 11th already?!
For those of you stylish ladies who show up fashionably late to the gifting party- we understand. Procrastination is never cute, but not to worry, we’ve put together handy gift guides for all the lovely ladies in your life!
First up- your brilliant bestie who just can’t say no to shiny. Make her holiday season sparkle with our favorites, including:
1. A luxe golden polish to keep her glimmering from fingers to toes, like Nicka K New York’s Golden Globe.
2. A suave collection of glittery makeup and a seriously bling statement necklace (seriously, you’ve got to click through and see it!) in our Sassy Sparkles Limited Edition Box!
3. Some sweet Kate Spade studs that bring a party to her ears on the daily!
4. A delicate but still sassy midi ring from Sparkles and Pop that will stand out.
5. A pretty flattering Becca highlighter will let her translate the love of glitz into makeup…without looking like she busted open the craft glitter.
We’ve got 4 more gift guides coming up this week and we’re happy to help- who are you having trouble shopping for?
Spoiler Alert- it’s December Sneak Peek time!
Why not seriously pamper your skin or rock some sassy shadow during the holidays? Everyone will receive a sample eyeshadow quad from Coastal Scents or a deluxe sample of Juice Beauty’s Stem Cellular Moisturizer this month and we can’t wait!
The last day you can sign up to receive one of these goodies and 4 more favorites is the 21st, so don’t delay!

The holidays are here- ready or not!- but there’s no need to let traveling woes get to you or your beauty products! We at BB5 are serving up sample-sized wisdom for flying and driving pretty and safely like a polished pro.
Think Small!
With Black Friday looming ahead, you want to have some room in your suitcase for any emergency purchases- soft leather boots or suave lipstick sets on sale are an emergency, right?- so we love transferring our most-loved products to chic travel bottles to save space and keeping them closeby! Once you’ve set those bottles aside, cut down more space by butting out a bottle of hand sanitizer and downsizing to antibacterial wipes, too! If you’re flying, we strongly recommend carrying your must-haves miracle products in your carryon bag, just in case your luggage gets lost or delayed.

Stress Less!
Jetsetting and gridlock traffic can wreak havoc on your skin and your patience, but a few small indulgences can help calm your mind and your complexion. We adore a rose mist to refresh our faces on the plane or at rest stops driving, and during holiday hustle-and-bustle, antiperspirant wipes are a girl’s best friend and take up way less room than your already-packed deodorant. Flashing a smile when we finally see our relatives (or a cute stranger sitting in our plane’s row) is a priority, so we keep it fresh with flosspicks, and we feel more like ourselves with a travel-size fragrance atomizer of our signature scent! Finally, having something to look forward to when you finally arrive- like unwinding with a mask- is always a good idea.

Majorly Moisturize!
The air onboard airplanes or in new locations can be a big change from what your skin is used to, so pack on the moisture everywhere! We travel with hair oil for our ends and live off lip balm, but also like to bring everyday lotion, body butter and some miracle salve for options.
(HASK Macadamia Oil Hair Treatment, Elite Therapeutics Rosemary Eucalyptus Body Creme, Chapstick Hydration Lock, Laura Ashley Italian Lemon Body Butter, Smith’s Rosebud Salve)
So keep that pretty head high when you travel and have a majorly-beautiful Thanksgiving!
