Open Box Day July 16 and Vote On Pursebuzz.com

Hey, guys, I'm Alisa and welcome to Pursebuzz.com. So, today, I'm gonna be doing an open box review which is just kind of an initial review on a whole bunch of products that I just recently received so I just opened these boxes. I don't know exactly what's in there, so we're gonna kinda go over them real quick, talk about like a pre-initial review so maybe you're interested in it or maybe you just kinda wanna put a pulse on it, maybe you'll look into it later on. It's just kind of an introduction on what's going on in the beauty world. Hey guys. I wanted to try something new and get your opinion since I do these reviews for you.

Please check out pursebuzz.com and vote on the next product that you'd like to see me review. Alright, let's get back to this video. So this first box right here is in a long box and we'll see what's in it. It is-- it's a whole bunch of ChapStick stuff. Let's see here. Soft Lips which is a really popular, almost like Chapstick so it looks they have some new flavors. It's Peach Mango and Vanilla.

That sounds good, right? Mango and vanilla. SPF-20, that's good. Oh, this one smells really good. Peach Mango. Mm, I like that one. I don't know about vanilla. It's...it smells very vanilla so if you don't like vanilla, I don't recommend it. It's a little bit like a ChapStick but almost just a little fancier as far as the packaging goes and there's SPF-20 so that's cool, and, I have some deodorant,

and I guess this is a new one, Certain Dri. It looks very doctor-like prescription stuff, no frills or anything like that, and let's see, there's a new Pure Honesty. It's not as exciting as the other one. SPF-15, then this is Papaya. I have a Coral Charm--oh, this is cute. This is like a little Juicy Tube, so let's check this one out. See that kind of color and a bit sticky. So Coral Charm. I wonder what that would smell like. Maybe it's just a color.

So it's a rubbery angled applicator. That's new. I haven't really seen too many of that before. I think there's another brand that does that. So this isn't like your typical lip gloss. It almost feels like a lip stick. It smells really good and there's our case to it. It's a really-- it's a pretty color but it's definitely a mix between like a lipstick consistency and a lip gloss consistency.

And, let's see, there's another one here, Vanilla Berry. This one looks like there isn't gonna be any color in it, just SPF-15, and they have Chai Tea, Peppermint, Pomegranate--oh, that one has to be good. And here's another one, this is--I don't know what color this one is. Maybe it's Natural Honesty is the color. Let's see. And Coconut Cream--Oh, and Cherry. Cherry like's my absolute favorite, so I'm excited to try that one out

and this is Organic Coconut and Sugar. Infuses natural conditions, it's fully lip polish because that is a must-have. I get a lot of questions about having to exfoliate your lips and how do you do that and the easiest way is just to get a little bit of sugar and just use a toothbrush and just kinda go over all like the dead skin cells and just kinda lightly remove it, or you could probably use this, never tried it, so... It smells really good.

It will exfoliate lightly. It doesn't have too many of those little micro beads but it's definitely in a good stuff. I think it's like micro micro beads. Mm. Let's see. This one says, "To use: Apply in circular motion with fingertips on lip and dry areas around the mouth. Rinse with water and wipe clean." So you can also look into this option or the sugar option. Okay. This is a cool product. I'm excited to try. As seen on TV,

this is the Professional Series Conair. So this girl looks pretty happy right there as she's doing her hair so I can't wait to try this one out because I don't have anything of this size. I have like a bigger one, like the Lava one, so this is exciting, I wanna try it, 'cause it goes up to 400--do that on myself--400 degrees Fahrenheit so we will check that out, and some more lip glosses. I'm probably gonna like sort this out and have to do a giveaway 'cause there's just way too many here for one person.

Oh, Shell Pink. Oh, and here's another one. Shell Pink. Cute. Alright, so that's one of the boxes that I got. This I wanna try. This is another one. This one's from Coastal Scents, and the little box that says, "Thank you." A little gift to me. Shadow Worx Eyeshadow Primer from Coastal Scents. Okay, this one's different.

I wonder if it's the same one in a different tube. Tubes are so much better than jars. Let's see. Have any of you guys tried this yet? Oh, this one looks like Urban Decay Sin. See that? Feels like it. Let's squirt a little bit on and then see what it looks like after the end of the video. Okay, so we'll see. It feels really good, though. I think this is something I will definitely consider liking.

Alright, here's this next one. This is from Stars Makeup Haven, one of my favorite websites to buy really nice, just kind of eyeshadows and palettes, and I have a whole bunch of pens. I love making my own eyeshadow, like pressing my pigments and products like that and just get them from like TKB or your won MAC pigments and you just press them in here.

So, she has some new freestyle palettes. It says here it's a small one, and we all love freestyles, especially if you're a makeup artist and you have all kinds of brands that you see potted and you can't just stick to one so it's really nice to have a freestyle palette so this is plastic. It's pretty nice and it feels like there's a magnet right here. Pretty sturdy. Oh, you know what? I don't know if it would work but let's try anyway.

It might be the little magnet is... Oh, it works. Hey, check that out. Oh, I like this one. Aww. It's like a game at the carnival where you're like, "Can it work? Will it stick?" Yes. That's awesome. I love this. Let's see how many will hold on here for fun.

I figure if it's 5 on top so probably like 15 with a little extra wiggle room if you do the standard MAC ones so that's a small one and then the big one, here we go. This is so cool. So, it feels a little sturdier than like the 88 palette. Definitely sturdier. I don't know if it's the magnet is what makes it so sturdier but it definitely feels sturdier, just like a simple little clip there. Alright. Let's see how many this will hold.

What if I just sprinkle them on, you think they'll stick? Oh, my gosh, this is gonna hold a ton. Oh, man. Okay, so if you're a makeup artist and you're serious, this is like the things-- okay, here we go. Okay, so that one fell out. Alright, let's see how many it'll hold. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, five.

So at least, about one, two, three, four, five, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, so 8 times 5 is 40. Oh, my God, this is 40 eyeshadows. I think this is gonna be my biggest palette ever. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Okay, that is so cool, so Starsmakeuphaven.com, this I recommend right away 'cause you can totally tell it's gonna be amazing, and she has some new eyeshadows. I'm so excited. Let's see what colors these are 'cause I love the one that she has before.

They're really pigmented and then creamy. They're definitely ones where you feel the mineral oil, kind of like the Urban Decay ones so this one is green. Can't tell the name, Scandalous. I think I already have this one. And Raisin Cane. Oh, here's a pretty yellow one, let's try that out. This one's called Fireflies. It's match my bra strap.

Oh, how cool. Okay, so I'll try it right on top, so this is without a base. This is with the Coastal Scents base. Look at that. I think these are only like $6 a piece, too, and they're the same size as MAC so, yey. Okay, let's see what other colors there are here. Fun colors. Greens, some corals. I have a lot of swatches on my site, too, so you should definitely check it out

if you're interested in finding some new, inexpensive eyeshadows. Oh, here's one I have to swatch. This is called Extreme. It's a little bit brighter than MAC Bitter. It's like neon. This is a little faint, almost a little too powdery for me, but, I mean, it's more like a--

I wanna say a faded neon so like if you want neon but you're like, "I can't quite commit to neon," this is pretty, but I like this one. This is called euphoria. I don't think I have anything like this. Check that out. It looks like a purple with like a little bit of a blue base but it's warm. Okay, there it is. So, on my hand and as a swatch, so that's on my hand. Uh-oh. So this is on my hand alone and this is on top of the Coastal Scents base

so pretty pretty. And I think that's it. The rest of the colors are pretty tame. Some neutrals. This is really pretty. It looks almost like a dusty lavender. This one's called Fifi. Throw it at you. Ready? Catch. So that's Fifi, and, let's see.

It's kinda dual tone, a little bit blue, a little lavender, and it's definitely pigmented. It's very pretty. This is Fifi. The one I really like is Euphoria. Check that out. It's almost like lipstick. And then they also have the eyeshadow, like in the pot form. Tada. It has a cute little star on it. It's pretty sturdy. I mean, it really feels just like a MAC one, actually,

but it's a little harder to open. I think I'm not doing it right. It's not that hard, you just have to open it correctly, so a little trouble there, but I am crazy about this palette right here. Crazy. Okay. Gotta be serious, moving on the next product. So this next box here is from Jeune D'ge

.

So they have some neat packaging and I am a huge fan of their products and they wanted to send me a new packaging so I can show you guys by using the other products so here is the gentle exfoliator in this sexy little bottle. And, I have a leak, too, and this one's a toner mister, so you just take it and then you just take a little cotton ball and you just wipe it down after your face is bare and clean. You could just tone yourself up and feel a little refreshed

and it's 98% organic. This one is the virgin organ oil, organ, orgen, I don't know. This next one right here, haven't tried yet, and this is for troubled skin. Use sparingly as a little goes a long way. So I will try it. It reduces scarring and stretch marks. Oh. Okay. So we're gonna be trying this one.

And...this is the acne cleanser. I haven't tried this one either. Smells very medicine-like, but not bad, just very medicine-like. This is what I love right here is the pumpkin peel. You have to smell this stuff. I mean, open this. Let me in. Alright, here you go. Oh, it's sealed.

I haven't finished up my other one yet but I really like it, I love the way it feels and the way it looks. You'll see it. I'll do a video or I'll do like a review on my site but it's definitely something that just feels really great on the skin. And this is the toner, Jeune D'ge Organics. "Directions: Use wetted pads after cleaning." Toner is like my best friend in the summertime

so I'm excited to try this one out. Need to work out. Okay, so I can't open it. Oh, there we go, there we go. Oh, look, that, I'm excited to try this. It's like the Noxzema pad but it's not. It's actually organic so, mm, definitely gonna be trying this stuff out, so, "Use wetted pads after cleansing. Any skin care effort is not complete without either a toner as part of the skin care regimen,"

which is very true because you wanna clean up all that dirt and oil that's in your pores that you couldn't get just by cleaning at the surface level and so it's nice to have something with a little bit of an exfoliator, like a sponge or like a-- not a sponge but as like a little clean pad to just get right in there and clean it up and then tone your skin at the same time. Yey for that. Tada.

Tobetterskin, you can follow them, too, on Twitter and you can learn all about them. If you're an organics fan, if you always, you know, wanna look for things that are natural, I'd highly recommend them. So this box right here is they're anti-aging serum and you just take this right here and you use it-- you could either use this whole thing or you just kind of use half of it and then save it like on your counter like this and then use the rest at a later time

and it's a little difficult for me to say yes, this absolutely works, the anti-aging system, but it hasn't made it worse. I believe Korn has actually tried it and he says it has done a phenomenal job but, for someone like me who swear is just 21, will deny, deny, you know. You know how it goes. And when you're done, you can actually plant this 'cause there's actually seeds in here, and it'll grow a little tree. Isn't that cool?

So, I might just dump all this out and plant this in my parent's backyard 'cause I don't have a backyard but that is gonna be what I really wanna see, what that looks like, a little plant made out of-- from a cardboard box, 'cause I think that's so awesome that Jeune D'ge is looking out for the environment, looking out for our skin and, you know, really working on using products that are organic. Yey for them. Okay, as I sit in my mess here, last one is a MAKE UP FOR EVER bag

and these are products that were used for their fashion show so I'm really excited to try these out and I'm also gonna be doing some MAKE UP FOR EVER giveaways, too, with these products so look out on Pursebuzz.com in the next coming week for some little giveaways and on Twitter. Okay. So, let's see. First one is a bronzing powder in this very fancy compact. Oh, magnetic.

I like how it's kind of ashy, the bronzer, so I'm not gonna look orangey. Want to take a picture first before I try it but I can't wait to try that. This is the blush, this is number 8. Looks very natural. I've tried this before at a makeup show and it just didn't come off my hands. It was very permanent. It was like waterproof, water soak proof, and it was a little crazy so I know when you use this, just take a little bit on your hand

and then whip it up into a brush and then put it on your face, like I wouldn't, like that, and I wouldn't like that so here's what I like, just kind of the [unk] so let's put a little bit on the back of my hand, warm it up, you know, with your skin and then put it on your cheeks and then it's supposed to look like it's coming from within. Oh, cool colors. Okay. We have some aqua colors here. I'm excited to try these out. I actually saw these at a makeup show, too,

and I just did not get a chance to go over there 'cause like, I know many guys know, MAKE UP FOR EVER is just a crazy place to go to at a show, it's just hours and hours of insane line so I'm super excited to swatch these and try these out for you guys. The red one is supposed to be like the most amazing color for your lips. I don't wanna put it on 'cause I'm afraid I won't be able to take it off for three days, but let's open it up. Okay. It's definitely not the jars today, it's me,

and I just can't open anything. Okay, here we go. So there's the red. Very pretty so I wanna see, I have the original cream colors from MAKE UP FOR EVER so I'm excited to try the aqua creams. Maybe I'll find colors that are like exactly the same in my palette and then just do like a side-by-side comparison so check that out, coming up in like the next few weeks. This is the red one,

so I've got like a gold one, a pink one, like a bronze one, like a gold for summer-- oh, this is really pretty just to pat on your lid. I'm gonna be doing a waterproof makeup tutorial coming up soon so I'm excited. I'll probably use something like that. This is a really-- this looks like a creamy rose, and turquoise, and then like a pearl and they also have black eyeshadows.

It's pretty. It's like a pen gray. And the forest green. This forest green one's called N3-- I'm sorry, its number 310. Can't read it, my bad. And some pigments. They have some purple pigment, star shadow, and like some star powder and it's like a brown and purple

and a lip gloss in this peachy color. I've been loving their new lip glosses. I can't wait to do a review. I picked them up at the makeup show and it's really nice. This one smells like mint. Mmm. Okay, this one's glossy full and extra shine lip gloss. I guess this is number 10. I used to get those little samples of this but I don't remember them smelling like mint, this is good.

Mmm. Okay, I love it. Well, no, we'll see how it works as far as like color though and black eyeliner. Alright, so that about wraps it up for my open box day. I know this one's a little bit longer than usual 'cause I wanted to go into more detail about the product so you guys can keep it on your radar, maybe you're interested and you're just gonna go zip on out to the stores to purchase it. I'm gonna have some links below. Thanks so much for joining me.

I'm Alisa, here for Pursebuzz.com. Buh-bye.
