Boxycharm

Cost: $25

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 $25 which is usually less then the cost of one item in the box. Boxycharm also joined the customization train and you can choose between a few items to have one in your box for the month. I really like that because Boxycharm was getting to the point where I was only liking one thing in my box and even though the value was there the fun wasn’t anymore.

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 are also welcome to use the link in the header that leads to the regular homepage.

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.

Another super weird month… Like I opened the box and was very confused at first.

Glamglow Youthmud Glow Stimulating Mask

Full Size: 50 g

Full Size Cost: $60

I have tried this mask many times and I know that I do not care for it. it stings my skin and I don’t get any positive effects from it so since this is totally sealed I am going to pass this on unopened to some one.

Georgette Klinger Marula Primer

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $32

Look if you have dryer skin this is probably wonderful. I would never out an oil on my face before makeup and expect anything positive to happen. Also this brand has been around since 1941 and I have never heard of it so now I’m super curious to see if they have a really cool vintage makeup history. Anyway this is probably beautiful for dry skin it is very smooth and luxe feeling but this is not for me so I will also pass this on.

Pinky Rose Cosmetics Pump Your Bass Multi-Use Makeup Stick in Hip Hop + Jazz

Full Size: 2 sticks, 1.7 g x 2

Full Size Cost: $20

Well now I wish they had sent the other colors because the other colors look super pretty and fun and these are kinda boring.

The matte cream colored one in Hip Hop is a bit skippy and hard to blend but it might make a good eye base. I have a strong suspicion I will declutter it in the future but I will give it an honest go it could be magical and a stick eye base would be useful for me.

The bronze one in jazz is very smooth and very metallic and pretty but bronze is so boring to me so we shall see how I get on with it. There is a super pretty red and lime green ones though and I really wish I had gotten one of those.

m2u nyc Makeup Blending Sponge Set

Full Size: 4 sponges

Full Size Cost: $20

These are super cute but they do feel low quality. I love having different shaped sponges and I will use these eventually but they are not a high quality item. I also swear I saw these like 2 years ago in a Walgreens with the Easter basket stuff.

Half Caked Best Friends Forever In Bloom + Duo Fiber Brush Set

Full Size: Duo Fiber Brush , 3.8 g Blush

Full Size Cost: $22

This packaging has my heart I love it so freaking cute. I love the concept of packaging a blush and brush together. I love this shade of blush. The blush is easily my favorite thing in the box. The brush is super soft but I don’t love the shape of it I don’t like really long wispy duo fiber brushes but I might try shaping this and trimming it to get a bristle length I prefer more. And by I might I mean I’m gona ask my dad to do it because he is an artist and actually knows how to do that with out ruining the brush.

I love a bruisey colored blush like they have my heart I love how they look.

What a odd combination of items but I do like that I got essential way more items then usual and that they are useful even if they are odd and kinda low value / low quality feeling. I am not getting a ton of value out of this month money wise but I do really really like the blush set and that is almost what I paid for the box so that plus the use I’ll get out of the sponges and sticks it has some value to me.

Total: $154

Total Value to Me: $62
