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.

This month looks impressive on the surface but I am kinda underwhelmed.

Jecca Blac Hydrate Primer

Full Size: 20 ml

Full Size Cost: $22.65*

This feels like a very standard primer it isn’t very exciting it is oddly being claimed as a pride thing which is confusing. Just a clear soft primer.

*$6.00 on Boxy’s website

Luna Magic Beauty Va-Va Voom Pink Lash Primer

Full Size: 9 ml

Full Size Cost: $6

First of all the audacity to say this is $25 dollars when you can buy it on Boxycharm’s own website for $6. I weirdly love the packaging of this it is soft touch and really muted and appealing. I kinda hope this leaves my lashes really pink so I can use it as a colored mascara because I don’t really use lash primers and I love the packaging enough to want to get use out of it.

Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Mysterious Red

Full Size: 2.4 g

Full Size Cost: $27

This is a very interesting and pretty red it is some how dark and bright at the same time but also very blue based and orangey at the same time. This was my choice for the month and probably the thing I am happiest about.

Touch in Sol Pretty Filter Glowdient Makeup Palette

Full Size: 10 g

Full Size Cost: $9

You can’t buy this anywhere but on Boxycharm’s site for $9 dollars not $34. Now i opened this and was like ugh hate it. Then I swatched it and it is actually really pretty and a really nice texture not as glittery mess as it looks in the pan. This is easily number two in the box for me.

OPV Beauty Spotlight Eyeshadow Palette

Full Size: 1.6 g x 18 shades,28.8 g

Full Size Cost: $40.42*

This whole thing is a hot mess. *First of all it is listed at $40.42, but $12 on Boxycharm’s site. and this feels like a $12 dollar palette the quality is not there the shadows preform really inconsistently and underwhelmingly. The back says the palette is 1.6 g which makes no sense that would mean that each shade contains 0.09 of a gram of shadow that is tiny so I think they meant to say that each shade is 1.6 g.like this box really feels like a bunch of sale junk they got for free and are charging us for.

Look the value of this box is trash this is all discounted junk except for the one thing I picked out.

Look at the discrepancies in the value breakdowns

“Listed Value”: $146

Buying it (Not from Boxy where Applicable): $111.07

Buying it From Boxy Only (Where Applicable): $60

How fucked up is that?

I am not happy and Boxy’s customer Service is TRASH total TRASH I ordered some thing from them on April 2nd I just got it June 21st after having spoke to customer service twice; getting blown off and never getting any tracking information or updates if you are counting that is more then 60 days. WTF.
