Beauteque BB Monthly Bag - July 2015 - Picnic of Pretty + PROMO CODE

This is my first Beauteque BB Bag review. 
Beauteque outdid themselves with the July BB Bag. Summer theme "Picnic of Pretty" especially with the plaid straw little make-up bag.!

Date Shipped : July 29
Date Arrived : July 30- ripped the package open when it came in the mail in the afternoon and started to use the products. I couldn't wait-so excited!

Use promo code "ILENE" for a special something (10% OFF) at checkout at beauteque.com and/or beauteque.com/subscriptions.

Every month there could be 6-8 full-sized products in every bag which can range anything including make-up, skincare, body care, beauty tools, hair care, lifestyle products and etc. If you buy it per month or up to 3 months it is $24, $23 for 6 months or $22 for 12 months. The retail values can range between $65 to $85 in every BB bag.

I brought it for a year to try it out. 

1. Etude House Milk Talk Body Wash (Chocolate): Beauteque sent all the subscribers a voting survey on June 18, 2015 to pick either the Set 1: Apple or Strawberry or Set 2: Choco or Steam Milk). Sadly I didn't remember what I chose-I'm thinking Strawberry or Choco. I got the Chocolate. It's nice that Beauteque was considerate enough to put bubble wrap around the top in case it were to leak. Smelling chocolate in the shower is definitely something new.

• Beauteque also gave me the option to choose between 3 colors of Tonymoly Crystal Blusher: No.1 (Milky Pink), No.2 (Pleasure Pink) or No.3 (Peach). I got the #3 - Pleasure Peach color. Perfect for the summer time, add a little color to the face.

 

• Jeju Hallabong Enery Peeling & Pack Mini -An unknown product to me, but then that is why I chose to subscribe to Beauteque, so this company can introduce me to new products that I am not familiar with. It's comes in 3 different skin needs - Energy Peeling Gel, Energy Live Pack, Ghassoul Pack.  The Ghassoul Pack is my favorite cleans the pores and rids of sebum, which we produce a lot in when the temperatures are warmer outside. 

• Golden Monkey Glamour Lip (3-step kit), which was hinted as an spoiler on Beauteque's Facebook page on July 2, 2015. Yes, I try to pay attention to what I am buying. I'm not a fan of the three step nose treatment, but seeing the lip one is definitely a ball changer. As I don't use lipstick, but use lip balm frequently so exfoliating and moisturizing my lips will be good since I do get dry lips once in a while.

• Secret Key aloe smoothing moist toner or Witch hazel pore clear toner. I did not get to choose this one for a pick. I was leading towards the witch hazel one because aloe is something that almost every skincare person has heard of and used. But aloe is good for the summertime when your skin needs all the moisture it can get.

• And lastly, Beauteque blending brush. (This is the body care product that provided every month). I will use this for the tony moly blusher that I received because I have never used a blush and I wouldn't have the applicator if this item didn't come with the bag. 

For those that are wondering, Beauteque is an online cosmetic shop that has brands from all over the world, but mainly Korean. Usually their monthly BB bag consists of 6 full sized products which can range from skincare, makeup and body care. You get billed on the 15th of every month if you are an monthly subscriber, but since I'm a newly yearly subscriber, mine will be shipped (hypothetically) on June 15, I think? So I paid $25.92 per bag.

On July 8, 2015, I received an email from Beauteque Monthly stating that "We wish to inform you that, unfortunately two products in your July BB Bag are unexpectedly delayed in shipment. The manufacturers overseas had a minor mistake in shipment which caused the delay. While we are striving to make sure these products are released to us so that we can then send them to you, we have been informed that this may take up to one month. We genuinely apologize for the delay, and would like to offer you an option." Everyone makes mistakes, so I didn't think much about it and they give me the option of either having the available products shipped first and the remaining afterwards or wait until everything is available and then be shipping. I decided to wait until everything was ready and then have it shipped to me. They offered a $5 coupon for the inconvenience, which is nice, I brought an "My Beauty Diary Black Pearl Total Effects Mask Box" with it. 

On July 23, 2015, they sent me another email stating that, "there was an oversight by the entity who shipped us the July BB bag products, and that a small batch of 'The Yeon Jeju Hallabong Mask Pack' has not yet arrived to us." So I used that code to buy another product (in my case, I got the Mask Grab Bag) on the regular Beauteque site. This company just keeps taking my money haha.  But all was forgotten when I opened my package and saw two Hanaka sheet mask (which I was so happy about) in apology to the July BB bag lateness. Now this is how you do business. I have to say as this is my first bag of the 12 and I got a good start with Beauteque Monthly. I hope my other 11 BB bags go smoothly.
