I’m a bit meh about this month’s bag nothing really stands out as that special to me. It doesn’t really scream holiday to me.
Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in Legendary
Full Size: 0.1 oz
Full Size Cost: $21
Sample Size: 0.08 oz
Value: $16.80
This is a great little mini lipstick. I just really don’t like the be legendary formula they are just way to creamy for my tastes and just not my thing. I find them really hard to apply and wear because of how creamy they are I feel like I really have fuss with them too much. Swatched Below.
Trèstique Mini Brow Pencil in Espresso
Full Size: 0.13 g
Full Size Cost: $10
Sample Size: 0.13 g
Value: $10
This is the full mini size that they make the full size comes with a spoolie so it doesn’t seem fair to compare those when this does exist for sale. I wanted to like this it was the right color and size but its a now go. Just swatching it was impossible it was so hard and sharp it left a welt on my skin just from how hard I had to press to swatch it. Swatched (Painfully) Below.
Son & Park Beauty Water
Full Size: 11.49 oz
Full Size Cost: $30
Sample Size: 1.01 oz
Value: $2.64
This is like a micellar water that can be used for prep or makeup removal which sounds like exact opposite uses to me but it is little enough that I can use it up quickly.
Nyx Faux Blacks Eyeliner in Blackberry
Full Size: 1.3 g
Full Size Cost: $7.99
Sample Size: 1.3 g
Value: $7.99
This is my favorite thing in the bag I love these gel like pencil eyeliners and I always love a fun color and this blackened purple is very me. I love Nyx eyeliners. Swatched Below.
Lipstick, Eyebrow Pencil, Eyeliner.
Pūrlisse Green Tea + Ginger Sheet Mask
Full Size: 1 mask
Full Size Cost: $8
Sample Size: 1 mask
Value: $8
Pūrlisse Coconut + Rice Sheet Mask
Full Size: 1 mask
Full Size Cost: $8
Sample Size: 1 mask
Value: $8
The pictures of these got corrupted so I am sorry but they are sheet masks they aren’t that special to look at. I have tried Pūrlisse sheet masks before but they are ok they have tons of essence and are soothing but I find them very cold they feel extra cold on my skin and I don’t like that. I would never spend $8 on one sheet mask but people must be.
Well my favorite thing in the box was the drugstore eyeliner. Idk this box was a little bit of a mishmash of things that almost were right but just didn’t quite work for me.
