Play! By Sephora has brought a lot of excitement to the subscription box world. Sephora currently is marketing Play! in limited areas with a nationwide release in 2016. Sephora’s point of view is that it allows them to work through the kinks of entering the wild west of the subscription box world. Meanwhile, potential subscribers everywhere are screaming, “We want to Play!” Heat7918 kindly share photos and commentary of the October Play! Box.

Subscription: Play! By Sephora

Price: $10.00 with free shipping.

What to Expect: Per Sephora’s FAQ – A monthly box of deluxe samples, along with an exclusive PLAY! BOOK — packed with helpful advice — and a PLAY!

The six product samples in your PLAY! by SEPHORA box are from the same prestige brands we carry in store and online, and they are sized to use multiple times.

Here’s Heat7918 pictures and review!

October is the 2nd month – same box/package both months – love the lipsticks pattern on the lid! The boxes themselves aren’t quite GlossyBox level – more Birchbox but a little bigger (square). I’m loving the 15+ page booklet (it’s in the first photo and says “Secrets to Dewey Skin”) that gives details on each product including tips, fun facts, hacks… it’s really nice.

The 1st box (Sept) was mainly make-up and hair but October is all about skincare – my favorite! (Plus a perfume sample for a total of 7 items in the box.) I think I’ve tried the Sephora Pearl Masque before – I ordered a variety pack on sale and pretty sure I liked this one… but I love masks in general and have never had a problem with one! I also think I got the Atelier Cologne sample from Birchbox. Otherwise, the other 5 products are new to me and I love how it includes most of the steps in a basic skincare routine – I’ve been wishing a box would do that for a long time!

What do you think of the October Play! By Sephora subscription box? Do you like that it is themed around skincare? Are you excited about the nationwide launch in 2016? Share below and anything else on your mind!
