What is it:
Boxycharm sends out 4 to 5 full size items every month which makes it really unique among the boxes I subscribe to. It is a nice change to get all full size products especially for the reasonable price of $21 which is usually less then the cost of one item in the box.

This months box was so good!!! I’m was so happy with it.
I’m pretty laid up with an injury right now so this was a nice treat.
The eye palette really makes it.
Colourpop Ultra Satin Lip in Lock Diary
Full Size: 3.2 g
Full Size Cost: $6
Sample Size: 3.2 g
Value: $6
This is from a collab Colourpop did with Hello Kitty so you can’t actually get this color anymore so I linked to another similar color. The card actually says we are supposed to receive the ultra matte lips but I received an ultra satin lip. I like the satin formula but the matte is more my preference as it is transfer proof and the satins are not. Still Colourpop is always great and affordable they make it so you can get some weird colors and not feel like you are spending an arm and a leg. This is a lot pinkier of a color then I go for but I will still try and use it maybe on top of something darker. Swatched Below.
Winky Lux Unibrow Eyebrow Pencil in Universal
Full Size: 0.28 g
Full Size Cost: $12
Sample Size: 0.28 g
Value: $12
I am not a huge fan of brow pencils I don’t really use them but this I have a weird fondness towards that makes me want to try it. Its probably the super adorable packaging. I love the Eye of Horus on the package. The spoolie is pretty shitty but that”s ok the actual product is nice. I it a bit hard at first but it warms up on the skin it is a little dark even for my dark brown brows so this is not a universal color like they claim. Swatched Below.
bareMinerals Invisible Light
Full Size: 9 g
Full Size Cost: $32
Sample Size: 9 g
Value: $32
This was incredibly hard to photograph it is white powder a matte and a glowy one. The matte one is very matte and the glowy one has a little swirl of color that doesn’t show up on the skin and has glitter in it. I’m not a huge fan of the glitter but I do really like this palette especially the concept of it even if the execution is not perfect for me. The powder is a little more full coverage then I would want in a translucent powder but it can be sheered out. These powders are so very soft I tried to get swatches but it is hard to see translucent powder. This is a great concept and packaging for travel you get both a glowy and matte powder in one compact unit with a huge mirror.
On the left we have the powders the top swatch is the glow powder and the bottom is the matte.
On the right we have the Lock Diary liquid lipstick on top and bottom is the Winky Lux Eyebrow Pencil. Swatched the pencil looks very ashy but on my eyebrows it does not look ashy at all it is a perfect undertone to look like real hair.
blinc x Boxycharm Electric Eyes Palette
Full Size: 11 g
Full Size Cost: $45
Sample Size: 11 g
Value: $45
Omg this is such a gorgeous palette. the pigmentation is insane I barely have to touch these. They are so smooth and creamy they have that kind of cream to powder type of feel its so lovely. Unfortunately the first and the fourth color look like the exact same color on me but that it ok it is still a pretty color.
This palette screams fall to me but I can’t wait to use it now even though it doesn’t totally fit the season in my opinion.
Project Beauty Spray.Set.Go Makeup Setting Spray
Full Size: 2 oz
Full Size Cost: $32
Sample Size: 2 oz
Value: $32
The packaging on this is really sleek and feels really nice and substantial but what the hell were they smoking to think this was worth $32. The nozzle sucks it sprays out in like a blast it makes a huge mess of your make up its terrible. I am either going to have to transfer this to a different spray bottle or reserve it for foiling purposes only.
Total: $127
We got 5 full sized items this month. Honestly the Electric Eye palette made the box it is definitely one of the best things I have ever received in an subscription box. Overall every product in this box was a hit for me even if there were some execution problems with some of the products. Can’t wait to see what we get next month.
