Cost: $21
Cycle: Every Month
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.
If you would like to subscribe you can use my referral link HERE. I don’t get anything other then points but would really appreciate it but do as you feel comfortable you can also use the link in the header.
You can also review your products and get “charms” which are their versions of points that you can use as money off in their shop.
Was not super impressed with the box this month but let’s get into it.
The BrowGal by Tonya Crooks Convertible Brow in CB.02 Brown Hair
Full Size: 5.5 g
Full Size Cost: $35
Sample Size: 5.5 g
Value: $35
This can be used wet or dry. When used wet is turns into a pomade. I don’t know that the colors are quite right for me a little too cool toned. But it is a cool concept. The powders feel really nice and have the perfect amount of buildable pigmentation that you want in a brow product. I don’t really do much to my brows so I will be passing this on. Swatched Below.
The BrowGal by Tonya Crooks Brow Brush
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost: $14
$14 seems a little high for this brush but it is a nice angle brush with a nice spoolie. The ferule is a little sharp on the brush side though. I think this will actually be really nice for winged eyeliner as well.
Temptu x Boxycharm Liquid Glow
Full Size: 30 ml
Full Size Cost: $24
Sample Size: 30 ml
Value: $24
Boxycharm stated this as $29.50 but Temptu has this on their website for $24. Either way this is a gorgeous glowy highlight it’ll look great mixed into foundation as well and should last forever a little goes a long long way.Swatched Below
IBY Beauty Highlight & Contour Palette
Full Size: 15.36 g
Full Size Cost: $40
Sample Size: 15.36 g
Value: $20
So this is listed as $40 but I frequently (as in every time I go there) see this in TJ Maxx or Marshalls for like $15-$20 so I am generously giving this $20 I’m pretty sure I have also see this once or twice at Five Below for $5 so I am not valuing this at $40. Also the quality is not there for $40 this really has to be built up and the pigmentation is just not that great the powders are super smooth but for me this is just way to light and way too much work for me to want to use. Swatched below.
Highlighter and Brow Powder
Contour and Highlight Palette
Crown Brushes x Boxycharm Round Contour Brush
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost: $24.99
I like that this comes with a nice cover. And I may actually reserve this as a travel foundation brush. This brush seems a little cheap to me the I am assuming that is because it is a collab with Boxycharm. This is not as dense as a paddle brush should be and the hairs are cut unevenly and splaying all over the place but I am sure a quick trim will fix that up enough for use. The handle is nice and flexible and sturdy so that is good. Despite all that it did apply foundation fairly nicely but not as nice as other paddle brushes I have used.
Total: $117.99
Despite some of the values being incorrect this is still a fantastic value. While this box was not my cup of tea and felt really cheap and thrown together to me I’m sure this did appeal to a lot of beginner makeup users. Those of us will large makeup collections this added very little new or uniqueness. I was not feeling it this month.
