Medusa’s Makeup May 2017 Subscription Box Review

Medusa’s Makeup

Cost: $15.95 monthly

Cycle: Every Month

What is it: Every month Medusa’s Makeup sends 3-5 full size products, with a value of $40 from their line.  I have been subscribing since their inaugural bag. They have changed things up a bit from 3-5 products to 3-4 products each month.

Medusa’s Make up is a vegan and cruelty free company and made in the USA.

They usually send out their newest products and always full size.


Two of their newest products so I can’t complain at all this month.

Glitter in Pegasus

Full Size: 3 g

Full Size Cost: $8

Sample Size: 3 g

Value: $8

So I totally forgot to take a picture of this one, but it looks like all the other glitters we have received just a different color. We get their glitters frequently and I rarely use them I tend to pass them on unless they are truly unique. I really don’t use a ton of glitter. This too will get passed on Pegasus does not stick together as well as some of their other glitters have. It is swatched at the end though that I didn’t forget.

Lip Paint in Shag

Full Size: 0.34 oz

Full Size Cost: $12

Sample Size: 0.34 oz

Value: $12

These are truly permanent they are so hard to remove but the lip paint remover they sent does get it off. I don’t love this color but I do like the formula. This is a very 90s pink like barbie but not neon. Swatched below.

Lip Paint Remover

Full Size: 0.17 oz

Full Size Cost: $10

Sample Size: 0.17 oz

Value: $10

This does work to get their impossible to remove lip paints off. I love a good liquid lip remover so I am all about this but it is a tiny bottle for the price.

Totally Bake Eyeshadow in Bitchin’

Full Size: 2 g

Full Size Cost: $9

Sample Size: 2 g

Value: $9

I have been eyeing these baked shadows since they released them and am so super stoked to get one. They have that traditional scratchy feel that a baked shadow has but I can live with that since it is supposed to be that way. There is decent amount of fallout from this but it applies well and is a gorgeous cream and gold with shimmer this actually really reminds me of Urban Decay’s highlighter in Sin that I just got in my Ipsy bag.

Eyeshadow, Glitter, Lip paint.


Total: $39

I was happy enough with the value of the box this month. The seem to have raised the price of their glitters from $7 to $8 dollars and this card was printed before that price change is my guess leading to the higher value then stated on the card. I got the new eyeshadow and the lip paint removed which does make the box worth it for me this month every time I am ready to cancel they lure me back in with a decent box. I have a soft spot for them since they are vegan and cruelty free.
