Sneek Peeq Mystery Box

Sneek Peeq is offering mystery boxes, with a new one coming out February 1-10.

The boxes sell for $29 with mainly beauty and style products. Each box has at least 5 items, with a promised minimum retail value of $60,and some will get lucky and receive a premium box worth up to $500. I received a box around the holidays to take a look at.

The box is nicely packaged.

Inside were 5 items:

  • A Glam Mat for resting hot styling tool, $22.49
  • LaRocca shimmering body lotion, value $35
  • Uno Magnetic Necklace, value 19.99
  • A mystery leather necklace with no information provided,value unknown (must be $82.52)
  • Chella Lash Conditioning Treatment.  Value $90

I also got a card stating that I had received a premium box worth $250. I had a hard time viewing these items as worth that much, so I looked them up, the ones that could at least. The total was $167.48 , meaning my mystery item is worth $82.52. Read on for why I think that is rather off!

The Uno necklace is kind of interesting. It is a metal chain and a magnetic ball. Depending on how you wrap it around the magnet, you can get different looks. The one in the box was not a particularly attractive color, or really attractive in any way, but the company does make them in multiple shades and it is an interesting product.

The mystery leather necklace stumped me. First off, there was absolutely no information about it. Then, I couldn’t get the bar to fit through the ring to close it. Maybe it isn’t even a necklace at all and is something else? Does anyone have any idea what this is? I can’t imagine it being worth $82.52!

A True Mystery

A product I liked was the LaRocca Shimmer Creme. This is a lovely body cream with a pretty shimmer to it. I will use this!

The styling mat is also a useful item that I will use.

Finally, there was the Chella Lash Treatment. I don’t use lash treatments, so I can’t really speak for its $90 value. It might make some people happy though and I will probably use it as a giveaway item.

Overall, for $29 the box is OK. I have seen much better though among the various boxes out there. Also, I don’t really buy the claim that the premium box is worth what they listed. The inclusion of a mystery item that doesn't appear to function properly was also a bit troubling. With that said though, I have seen a few other reviews of sneak peeq boxes that had items that I would have liked much better. So maybe I just got a bit unlucky with this one.

If you want to see the February offerings, you can go to  SneekPeeq.com. One word of warning though, they make you sign up through Facebook, which also troubled me a bit.

Betsey Johnson Jewelry: Little Black Bag Open Video

This is my Little Black Bag open containing Betsey Johnson jewelry with a Beetle Stretch Ring and a Charm Bracelet with a cute frog. Little Black Bag is a fun social shopping and trading experience.  To learn more about how it works, see my original post here: Little Black Bag Review.

Here are photos of the two items in my LBB.  First is the Betsey Johnson Beetle Ring. I love this chunky and gaudy ring! But I recognize that it isn’t for everyone!

I liked these items, although they struck me as a bit cheap as compared tot he list price shown on Little Black Bag, which was in the $45 each range.

Below is my video open of the bag.

Beauty Box Five Review

October and November are all about subscription boxes for me. I will be reviewing around 10 of them and then will also make a big comparison video. Today looks at Beauty Box Five, which is one of the better value boxes in my opinion.

Beauty Box Five

At $12/month, Beauty Box Five is relatively affordable. The box itself is not as nicely packaged as some others, but it is decent enough. In each box are 4 or 5 samples of beauty products.

My box (August 2012) had the following items:

  • Blinc Eyeliner
  • The All Natural Face Vegan Eye Shadow
  • Everyday Minerals Blush
  • Blum Naturals Oil Absorbing Face Tissues
  • Comodynes Easy Peeling facial Mask, New Face Effect
    I have not tried any of these before, so I was happy with the selection. I also liked that it was more cosmetic oriented than skin care. Overall, I liked the box and think it is a pretty decent value. My video review of it is below.
