August Play! By Sephora review

So sorry for late post but August was a busy month so let's play some catchup.  Let's check out Play! By Sephora and see what we got this in August.


Every Sephora Playbox comes with a unique bag and I love the one I got this month.  Just look at how cute it is.  


You also get handout with info on each produced you are receiving.  This information that you are getting here is very basic and does not include any retail pricing.  Most of the time I wind up going online to look up more information anyway.  I did include a picture of the back of the handout because I liked he elements of beauty chart.  There is a lot of good information there and I wanted to share.  No need to thank me 😆


Let's start with something that comes in every Play box and that is the Play pass.  This pass gives you 50 Beauty Insider points to use in the Rewards Bazaar.  The lowest reward items in the Rewards Bazaar is 100 points so basically you are getting a free deluxe sample every other month.  You do have to go into a Sephora store to redeem these point but that does not bother me in the least.  I enjoy walking around the store to see what fun things I might have missed online.



Alrighty look at the great stuff this month!!! One of my favorites this month.  Lets jump in.


Ok first up is from BeautyBlender and it is there mini sponge that is perfect for your inner corners, brow bones, side of nose, and cheek bones.  This mini sponge is one fourth of the size of a full sized BeautyBlender and that makes it great for highlighting and contouring.  
I just want to make a quick not on how BeautyBlender works.  We all know that to use a BeautyBlender we wet it first.  (I hope we all know that)  and I know most of you will say you wet it to get a streak free application and yes it does but is also help with product from being absorbed.  When you wet a BeautyBlender the water fills the cells in the sponge making it "Full".  This makes the makeup sit on top of the sponge instead of soaking in resulting less product loss.  




From Too Faced we have Mascara Melt Off.  And By the name you can tell it is for removing mascara.  It works well on waterproof and regular mascara.  This oil based formula is infused with antioxidant rich green tea extract to protect lashes while rice lipids extract conditions.   



This dry shampoo from Living proof has a patented healthy hair molecule (OFPMA) with triple action cleaning to absorbs and removes oil, sweat, and odor from your hair.  This is a nice dry shampoo and I love the company.  I do not see that big of differences from other dry shampoos, I like it but I do use others.  
Dry shampoo tip:  If you see white residue, little is normal and can be easily removed by shaking our your hair and combing.   If however you are seeing more then that make sure you are shaking the can well before applying and hold it farther from your head when you apply.  


Lock It Concealer from Kat Von D is a ultra nourishing hydra boost complex that is a crease proof for formula.  This is a ideal formula for the delicate under eye area and the applicator has a tapered tip for precise corners and a wide base to coat larger area.  



From Kopari we have the Coconut Melt.  This is  great multitasking product that I love.  The powerful premium oil gives you the solutions for dryness, redness, dullness and uneven texture.  You can use this as a makeup remover, nail nourishment, ender eye rescuer, scar soother, lip balm, deepest conditioning hair mask, bath boost, super shave oil, massage oil, belly beauty balm and baby butter.  Just melt a dollop in your hands by rubbing the palms together to warm up the oil, then use any where form head to toe.  



And last we have Saint And Sinner form Kat Von D.  For me I like Saint better then Sinner but here is a rundown on both.  
Saint: This gourmand fragrance sweetness a bouquet of jasmine and tiare flower with notes of mandarin, carmel, and sparkling, Mirabella plum, vanilla, sandalwood and creamy musk in this perfume. 
Sinner: This enticing fragrance sweetness a bouquet of jasmine and orange bloom with notes of vanilla, mandarin, and mirabella plum.  Spicy cinnamon envelops white florals at the heart of the fragrance, while base notes of vetiver, patchouli, and wood form the deeper, dark nuance.


So that is the run down of the August play bag.  Let me know what you think.

Till next time. 💋
