I got my Target Beauty Sample Bag

I think I must have been in the last wave of shipments, because I'm pretty sure all of you who signed up for the Target Beauty Bag got yours by now (and thanks to so many of you for commenting on this post to let us know what you got!).  I just got mine this week but it was worth the wait!

It seems that, with a few very minor differences, we all essentially got the same products, which is great, considering that this was FREE!


I'm really excited about those coupons because, as you know, you can combine Target coupons with manufacturer's coupons AND Target accepts coupons on clearance items! So let's say you see a Revlon nail polish on a clearance end cap and it's reduced to $3. Well, if you had a $2 Revlon manufacturer's coupon, you could stack it with the $1 Target coupon that's in the coupon booklet above, and get it for free (minus sales tax of course).

  2. I received mine a week or two ago. Looks like I got the same exact things you did. I haven't tried any of the products yet, but I would definitely be up for commenting on the "mini review" posts. And I think the makeup bag was definitely worth it! Thanks for letting us know about this!

  3. I got mine last week! The samples were ok, but I love the Sonia Kashuk bad and the coupon! I think that the Neutrogena Naturals lip balm is my favorite. It's minty and smooth. XO

  4. I only got mine a few days ago... I was beginning to worry! Haha. :P But everything in my bag is the same, except the Pantene shampoo I got is white, not clear. I got the Color Solutions, while it looks like you got the Fine Hair Solutions?

    I would definitely be up for the group reviews! Especially since I've been using the lip balm nonstop since I got it!

  5. I got mine last week but I received Nivea happy sensation lotion instead. I am up for the group reviews for Neutrogena lip balm and other stuff!

  6. I got my bag last week (thanks for the heads up!) and would love to do the mini-reviews. My shampoo is different, but the lotion and lip balm are the same. ^_^

  7. I got mine last week...Friday maybe? Everything was the same as pictured except the shampoo. I guess we had to specify what hair type we have, so I got the one for curly hair. I'm not digging the lip balm due to the peppermint in it. meh.

  9. I have yet to receive mine. :'( I think someone is taking my mail because something I purchased over a week ago never arrived. Thankfully the seller is sending a replacement, but this totally stinks!

    Super cute bag though, and maybe it will come in. Got my finger crossed!

    :o)

  10. I signed up for this when you posted about it, but I haven't gotten mine yet - oh well!

    It is disappointing though, that there's no nail polish in it! Check out the original link for the promo: http://samples.target.com/beauty-bag/?empty=1

    I was really looking forward to the SH nail polish!

  11. I got the Pantene in Medium/Thick, but everything else is the same. The lip balm smells EXACTLY like Andes Mints! YUM!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Yep, looks like mine was almost identical! The bag sells for $6 at Target, too :)

  13. I did a review on the lip balm, I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  14. yeah that sounds great. I love the Nivea Lotion.

  15. Glad you finally got yours!!! Group reviews idea is cute, but I will likely save many of these samples for travel. :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I really do not like the Nivea lotion that came with bag. The smell of the lotion is way too sweet and strong to wear on a regular basis.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I got mine last week, but there was no lip gloss sample like everyone else :/

    ReplyDelete
  18. I got the same stuff as you. I really like the Neutrogena lip balm; everything else was just okay. I LOVE the coupons, and of course the free bag :)

    ReplyDelete
  19. I got one for my mother and myself, and both of our bags didn't have the pantene sample! :(

    ReplyDelete
  20. I thought I was the only one that hadn't gotten it yet. I guess a trip to the post office is in order this weekend since I'm apparently in the last shipping wave also. I'm most excited about the bag since the design is so pretty.

  21. I got mine already, looks like we have the same stuff in our bags :)
    love the group review idea.

  22. There were Suave professional products on sale this week at my Target, so if you were going to use that $1 off coupon from this bag, you could get it extra cheap!

    (I got another can of Dry Shampoo and it ended up being $1.74.)

  23. I received mine a week or two ago, and I'm ashamed to say that I've only used my lip balm lol

    I should take the rest of the products out of the bag at least.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I like the idea. But let us know ahead of time what you want to review. The lip balm , lotion and gloss would only need a day or two notice. But shampoo and condtioner more because everyone doesn't shampoo everyday.

  25. I got the mini nivea lotion and the neutrogena lip balm only, and the color blast card and fekkai sample packet. I love the makeup bag!! I will say I was looking forward to the neutrogena lip balm but it is a miss for me. Not any better than regular chapstick, I think I have better results with blistex or savex pot. I will toss in in a 911 lip place.. like hubbys car, but I would not but it.

  26. Oh, weird! I didn't get the Pantene shampoo. That's fine though, I don't use Pantene anyways. I got my goddies a week and a half ago and have used up a good portion of the tickets. Not a fan of the lip balm, though; a little too hard and not moisturizing enough.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Instead of a Pantene sample I got a fekkai sample packet, which was nice.
    I totally agree about the Nivea lotion smell. It was too sweet & strong & I don't like anything to compete with my perfume!

  28. I got mine last week. No lip gloss sample though.. I think group reviews are a great idea. I didnt even know you did that on this blog. Im a "newbie" to your blog and I cant tell you enough how much I adore it!! I am oh so obsessed with getting all of my products from the drug store now = ) I frequent the Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aids in my town now. All of the beauty ladies know me by name now!! They probably think im nuts, LOL!!

  29. Im sad now I havent gotten mine :( I hope to get it by next week at least because I submitted for mine when you posted it on here

  30. I got an empty box... The box had fallen apart in transit and the bag fell out :-(

    Oh well, you win some you lose some!

  31. Mine arrived last week, I got everything except the Pantene sample, but I'm fine with that, can't complain - it was FREE! I like the lip balm, though it's nothing special, same with the Nivea lotion. The Fekkai shampoo/condit. was something I really loved, but I doubt I will purchase any in the near future, it's a little too expensive for me/us. I liked everything, *but* I L-O-V-E the little bag, too too too cute!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I got my freebies two weeks ago. I thought some items might have been missing becuase my box was opened. But I got the same exact products shown in the picture. I already went out and bought Revlon's Hot Pink gloss. Love the bag!
