Medusa’s Makeup February 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 from their first month.  Every month the products arrive in a different colored bubble mailer.

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

They send out their newest products and always full size.


Oh Medusa’s Makeup I don’t even know where to start with you and how you have disappointed me. Since the beginning we have gotten 4 products this month only 3 products. the value this month was only $33 dollars this month instead of the $40+ that it is supposed to be. They disappointed me last month they really disappointed me this month. so that is two strikes if next month doesn’t impress me I will be canceling and finding a new box to subscribe to. I am open to suggestions.

So there’s the paltry three products they sent out this month.

Highlighter in Moonlight

Full Size: 8 g

Full Size Cost: $12

Sample Size: 8 g

Value: $12

This is an INTENSE mineral highlight (and very messy) it is white highlight but has a very strong gold shift. It is basically gold in the light which I was not expecting. It is very cool and will be good for very cool looks. Swatched below.

Eye Dust in New Wave

Full Size: 1.5 g

Full Size Cost: $7

Sample Size: 1.5 g

Value: $7

This is a very pretty blue/teal shimmery eye dust. their eye dusts are great they are pigmented and do stick together well. They also come in a million shades. I almost wish they would send more of these and less glitters.

You can see the crazy gold shift to that white highlighter.

Kabuki Brush

Full Size: yes

Full Size Cost: $14

This brush is super soft and dense with a nice metal handle. It is a nice kabuki brush did I need another kabuki brush no but it is pretty. I find it very odd that the card and website both listed this at $12 dollars when I received my box and now 2 weeks later as I sit to write this post the brush is now $14 on the website. That is a little sketchy. I have never seen any of their other products change price in the years I have known about this brand.


Total Value: $33

Well Medusa’s Makeup we have had a roller coaster ride of a run but you are on your last strike. I am really hoping that next month they send one of their new lip paints, a gel eyeliner, or one of their body pigments just something different or I will probably be  canceling.
