Medusa’s Makeup
Cost: $15.95 monthly
Cycle: Every Month
What is it: Every month Medusa’s Makeup sends 3-5 full size products from their line. This is the third month that this subscription is around and I have been subscribing since the beginning. Every month the products arrive in a different colored bubble mailer.
So far I have received 4 products each month and they have all been full-sized. They also send out products that they have newly launched which is really cool that you get to try their brand new stuff.
Medusa’s Make up is also a vegan and cruelty free company and made in the USA.
This months products:
They have upgraded the info card this month I hope they continue with that. Previous months it was a little slip of printed paper.
Lipstick in Red Square
Full Size: 3.5 g
Full Size Cost: $12
Sample Size: 3.5 g
Value: $12
Close up of the packaging:
The packaging is both light (cheap) feeling plastic but well designed and the cap stays on well.
Here is the lipstick with and without flash:
It’s a very nice creamy lipstick and the shade is a very true bright red with no orange or blue undertones. It is a little sheer for my tastes but does build up. Swatched below.
Cosmetic Glitter in Abracadabra
Full Size: 2 g
Full Size Cost: $7
Sample Size: 3 g
Value: $7
I don’t know if this is like old packaging or something but the pot I received says that it contains 3 g while full size on the website is advertised as 2 g. I am going to go with the full size price of $7 for 2 grams since that is what you can buy from Medusa’s
This is a cosmetics grade glitter that can be used on the eyes, lips or any where on the face or body. Abracadabra is a black glitter that is not super reflective but I could see this looking really nice topping some of my Tattoo Junkee liquid lipsticks. Swatched below.
Glitter Adhesive in The Fix
Full Size: 2 g
Full Size Cost: $8
Sample Size: 0.2 oz
Value: $8
Again with the weird sizing differences the product received is marked at 0.2 oz which is almost 3 times what the website says full size is.
I am interested in seeing how this wax type of product will hold the glitter but i am not holding my breath that this is going to work.
Deluxe False Eyelashes
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost: $8
Sample Size: Yes
Value: $8
This seems to be a brand new product so that is cool that they include their new launches. I am not a false lash person but this little kit is so cute that I may have to give it a try.
Overall:
The total of this months bag was $35. Which is damn good for a 16 dollar bag. I have been happy with the variety of products they send out even if they aren’t always the type of make up I use. Messy pigments and glitters are not my thing but having this glue may help me branch out a little. The weird discrepancies in sizes has me a little confused but overall I was happy. Let me know what you guys thought about this box or if you guys get this same box!
