KAB Cosmetics Mystery Box - Is It Worth $250?!

 

Hi guys,

It’s been a while since I’ve done a blog post! 

I wanted to post about the KAB Cosmetics Mystery Box, as I was pretty intrigued about what it contains as it’s $150 but everything retails for $254! I couldn’t find any reviews or any posts about what the box contains, and the experiences of others, so I thought I’d pick it up and it may help some of you thinking the same.

I’ve had both good and bad products from KAB Cosmetics, and I’ve tried out the majority of their products they stock on the website - I always go for the bundles they add on their site where you have a few different products to try which is why I’ve tried so many! 

The products are quite up there in price, so I recommend you always use a coupon code as then you can get more for your money and it’s not as bad if something doesn’t work out well. 

There were two products I was hoping to get in this mystery his - lip oils and the contour palette because they’re some of my favourite products from this brand. 

I’ll let you know what I received, and in my video I let you know if I think it was worth the money I purchased it for - here’s a heads up, I used a 30% off coupon code so didn’t pay the full price 😉

If you’ve never tried anything from KAB Cosmetics, or if you don’t know about them, they’re a cosmetics company created by Kim Zolciak Biermann, and her daughters Brielle and Ariana. You can purchase some products from Walmart, although apparently they’re slightly different to what’s on the website as the prices are a little cheaper. 

Anyway, let’s get on with the details about the box!

About the Mystery Box 

The box has a retail value of $254, and you can purchase for $150 from their website, so you save $100 on the purchase. They mentioned on their Instagram that every box contains their Bombshell Beauty Oil, and the Undress Me lip kit. Already there, you have a $79 value. The box also contains at least 9 full sized products. I don’t know if every box contains the same products, or if everyone receives just those two items the same. 

When I’d received the box, it was just a normal cardboard packing box with the items in there. There was no KAB box like it shows on the website, so that was a bit of a disappointment. But hey ho, all the products were full to the top and had good packaging coming all the way from the US to the UK. 

Shipping was incredibly quick! I’d received in a few days after I’d purchased it, which is crazy considering it’s coming thousands of miles, and was quicker than some UK post I’ve waited for! 

The items 

The first two items I received were the Bombshell Beauty Oil, and the Undress Me lip kit.

Both products I feel I’ll be using (I was excited about the beauty oil and I’d researched the ingredients and they look good for oily acne prone skin which I have!). The lipkit looks like a nice shade that I’d wear, so no shockers there! 

Next, I’d received the Hydrating Setting Mist. This I wasn’t too sure about because I have very oily skin, and usually I stay away from anything which says ‘hydrating’. When I looked at the ingredients, it contains Witch Hazel which is great for acne. The sprayer was great as well and gave a nice mist - not a drenched look at all! 

This one was a pleasant surprise for me as it may actually work well for my skin type. There’s also a slight hint of coconut scent, so if you’re sensitive to those types of smells then it may not be the best for you.

I’d also received a face palette which I already own. I do genuinely enjoy the palette and have used it quite a lot (the screenshot is of my opened palette so you can see the shades as I didn’t want to open a new one). I like 2 of the 3 shades, and it’s a beautiful gel to powder formula. Again, a product I use and like so not a disappointment for me.

Now, this is where it goes a bit different. Out of the 10 products I received in my box, 7 were lipsticks, lip kits or lip liners! 

70% of the products I received in my box were lip products! 

I’d received 3 lip liners (all different shades of brown/nude), 2 nude lipsticks (which were beautiful but very close together in shades) and another lip kit in Cherry Pie (which is a lovely bright red). 

I’ve used the lip liners before and they’re ok. They do stay on well, but they’re quite a dry formula compared to their new ones. I’ve also received 2 of the 3 lip liner shades in previous bundles, so I wish there was a variety on shades they hadn’t used before in previous bundles. 

The nude lipsticks look beautiful so I’m pretty happy with those, but the lip kit is a disappointment because I have it already and I don’t really use red shades. 

I know they’re known for their lip kits and lip oils, but they have plenty of other products they could have given. I appreciate that they have several different shades of things as everyone uses different things, but I think it was a bit over kill in all honesty.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I like that they catered for different colour options, but they were all the same thing. If they’d thrown in a lip oil or the duo, or if they’d added their bestselling shades then it may have been a bit different. 

Check out my video above to see if I’d repurchase another one, or if I’d recommend it to you to purchase if you’re curious.
