Target Beauty Box June 2016 Review

Since I liked Target's May 2016 beauty box, I decided to order their June 2016 beauty box as well.

As mentioned previously, Target launches their Beauty Boxes once a month and in order to get one, you have to be quick, since they sell out within 12-24 hrs. I believe they launch one every first Monday of the month. June's Beauty box was launched Monday May 30th and I do believe it didn't sell out as fast as the previous ones.

The Target Beauty Box isn't a subscription box like the Ipsy or Birchbox ones, so you have to order each one individually online, they are not sold in stores. 

The price per box is usually around $10, 

I believe April 2016 box was $7 and the May 2016 box was $10. June 2016 box was again $10 and included free shipping. The theme for the June 2016 box was sun KISSED and it came the $3 off beauty purchase of $15 or more coupon just like the May box.

Here's what was in my box:

• Pantene Expert Intense Hydration Shampoo 118 ml (3.9 fl. oz)
• SheaMoisture Fruit Fusion Coconut Water Weightless Creme Rinse 94 ml (3.2 fl. oz)
• Pixi Mesmerizing Mineral Eyeshadow Duo in Apricot Glow 2 x 0.75 g (0.03 oz)
• Laneige Water Bank Serum 10 ml (0.3 fl oz)
• S.W. Basics Exfoliant (1-2 uses)
• L’Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation in W3 Nude Beige 1.8 g (0.06 oz)
• L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Volume Filler Moisturizer 14 g (0.5 oz)
• Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter 10 ml (0.33 fl oz)
• Yes to Cucumbers Soothing  Facial Wipes, 10 wipes
• CoTZ Face SPF 40 Natural-Tinted Suncreen 10 g (0.35 oz) 
• e.l.f. Lip Kiss Balm in Bare Kiss 4.5 g (0.15 oz)

There were two hair care items in the June beauty box:

• SheaMoisture Fruit Fusion Coconut Water Weightless Creme Rinse 94 ml (3.2 fl. oz) gives "lightweight hydration for fine, wavy curly hair." It's a nice sized sample and I'll be definitely trying this out during my summer travels. However, I have very fine hair, so usually oily conditioners don't really work for me. But I'll give this a shot.

• Pantene Expert Intense Hydration Shampoo 118 ml (3.9 fl. oz) is also a nice size sample and I'll take this with me for our roadtrip. I'm not the biggest fan of Pantene products, and this one is too big for the carry-on, so I can't bring it on flights.

Skincare items included:

• Laneige Water Bank Serum 10 ml (0.3 fl oz), which I'll definitely use. Last month's box had Laneige Water Bank Moisture Cream in it, which I've yet to use, so I'll probably try these two together
• CoTZ Face SPF 40 Natural-Tinted Suncreen 10 g (0.35 oz). I'm not a big fan of tinted sunscreens, but I'll take this small tube with me when flying to Europe this summer. I might be able to use it there at some point.
• L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Volume Filler Moisturizer 14 g (0.5 oz). I don't have many wrinkles, but I will still give this product a shot. I do have some lines on my forehead, so we'll see if this helps!

• Yes to Cucumbers Soothing  Facial Wipes, 10 wipes, This is super-handy for my upcoming travels, will be taking it with me.
• S.W. Basics Exfoliant (1-2 uses). This is a pouch of some sort of powder, very interesting! I assume I mix half of the bag with a little bit of water and use it as an exfoliant that way, will take this one with me for our trips as well.
• Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter 10 ml (0.33 fl oz). This is a sizable sample of body butter. I will definitely be giving this a shot.

Makeup items included:

• L’Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation in W3 Nude Beige 1.8 g (0.06 oz). I already received the same sample with the Amazon beauty box, but will use this one as well. The sample came with a $2 off coupon, which I will probably use once I decide with shade I want to get.
• Pixi Mesmerizing Mineral Eyeshadow Duo in Apricot Glow 2 x 0.75 g (0.03 oz), better photo below.
• e.l.f. Lip Kiss Balm in Bare Kiss 4.5 g (0.15 oz). This is the only full-sized item, and to be honest I will probably not use it and will be giving this to my friend to use. I'm just not a big fan of tinted lip balms and this color isn't to my liking either. 

Here's a closeup of the Pixi by petra Mesmerizing Mineral Eyeshadow Duo in Apricot Glow. I will definitely be giving this item a try. 

This month's box wasn't as nice as the May box. I'm not entirely sure why they called it sun kissed either, not a whole lot of of "sunny" products.I'm glad they did include the eye shadow, because that's the only new makeup item I'm excited to try. 

Hopefully the Target July 2016 box will surprise me positively, since this was a bit of a let down.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week!
