☼☼ December Boxycharm Unboxing + November Review☼☼

☼☼ December Boxycharm Unboxing + November Review☼☼



Boxycharm is a monthly beauty subscription box that sends 4-5 full-size beauty/makeup products.

I was not given this box. All opinions are my own. Based off my preferences! :D

Cost: $21 per month (FREE SHIPPING!)

My referral link

They only ship to 48 U.S. states. (They don't ship to Hawaii or Alaska yet.)





I have four of these already! I have the colors atlantic city, laguna beach, new orleans, and hollywood. As you can probably guess I'm overjoyed to be getting my 5th one!

I love these. They are long lasting, not overly drying for a liquid to matte formula, lightweight, don't feather, and PIGMENTED!


 Just look at that! This is AFTER it "dried matte" on my lips. It looks very moist but it really isn't.

 Is it just me or do my plain lips look angry?? Sad lips

From left to right:
Hollywood, Laguna Beach, Atlantic City, New Orleans, and Americano

Not sealed but no product had been pulled up into the neck of the bottle.


This is a pack of blotting sheets to absorb excess oil from your skin. My face eats these up like a family on thanksgiving. I'm glad to have them! Beautiful packaging too.

These are powder free, fragrance free, and pulp-free.



 And they have lovely speckles of gold leafing all over each sheet




Another highlight! If you remember I got a Jelly Pong Pong Highlight gel in Novembers Ipsy bag. At least this one is in my FAVORITE highlight color - silver/white.

This is oil free, 100% cruelty-free, and has jasmine extract




 There was a plastic seal around the lid.



 Card says Full Size and $23 but..the 4oz of this product is $23. This is the 3.4oz product for $20.

This is a hair conditioner. You apply it to damp hair and leave it in for a few minutes then rinse it out. I actually NEVER buy conditioner because I have oily hair and that includes the ENDS. Ha ha. I will give this a whirl though because I haven't used one in ages.

The bottle smells like coconut (says it is coconut scent) but the product itself DOESN'T smell anything like coconut. Not a very pleasant smell.) The product is SUPER watery! Careful dispensing this stuff. I squirted it all over and I was being careful!


It was sealed!


This is a gel lip liner. All natural. Made with 100% minerals and botanical extracts. Yes it says it is long lasting formula and they weren't kidding. Check below for pictures. I couldn't get it off my hand OR lips even with heavy duty makeup remover. 




 It was broken. :( Luckily it is a sharpenable one. I found the tip in the top of the lid which is bizarre because the lid doesn't go very far down on it. Weird.



VERY Creamy. Easiest application of a lip pencil I've tried.



Um... this stuff is LONG lasting. I SCRUBBED at my hand. It was only on the back of my hand for a MINUTE! Below is what I was stuck with after scrubbing with makeup remover.



There are three scents Dark Almond, Peach Vanilla, and Rose Petals. I received dark almond and it is a musky scent. I'm SO glad I got this item though because the variation of this in the box was this item, or two other products we've gotten before in Boxycharms. I would have complained about repeats.

I haven't had a cuticle oil in FOREVER too. I was most excited about getting this item in the box. I hope it isn't a scent that is TOO strong though. I'll let you know in next months review.




Total spent for the bag: $21
Total bag is worth: $103.85
Total saved: $82.85

Of course getting 103 dollars worth of products for 21 is always a steal. I wish I'd stop getting hair products and highlights though. I have a trillion! I just gave away a BAG full of hair products just from Boxycharm and Ipsy. Ugh! Especially when they rarely send things for people with OILY hair. I'm SHOCKED that I don't have the softest hair in existence.

NOVEMBER REVIEW

  1. Luxie Rose Gold Concealer Eye Brush #211 - Full Size - $12

Adorable brush! Works great. Glad to have as many brushes as they want to send me.



  1. Pur'Lisse Pur'Eye Adore Quadra Benefit Eye Serum - Full Size - $65 

I'mINLoveWITHthisSTUFFFFF. I use this twice a day (morning and night) I don't notice anything different with my eyes but I'm addicted to PUTTING things under my eyes. I don't have bad bags or anything but I do have a slightly darker under eye. I don't notice any difference using this. I just love using it. I like how it feels under my eyes and I love applying it. I'll probably buy an eye cream after I run out of this stuff in 30 years. I use 1/8th of a pea size droplet for both eyes. Ha ha.



  1. Manna Kadar's Liplocked .Priming Gloss Stain - Full Size - $24 in "lucky"

Hallllllelujah! Finally a gloss that I love. I'm super picky about sticky lip glosses. I've never used one that wasn't sticky or that DIDN'T leave my lips to live on my cups after the first drink. This gloss is the answers to all my prayers though. I love how it feels, I love the color, I love the smell (none), and I love the staining power. I realllllly want more of these.



  1. Coolway Leave-in Treatment - Full Size - $19.95

I love the smell of this and it seems to be leaving the ends of my hair softer than usual! I already liked coolway products but this kind of cements it. Leave in treatments usually just help my hair reach greasy level 8k sooner… this I didn't notice a difference. I don't think I'd BUY these but it is nice to get them in boxes every once in a while.



  1. Studio Makeup Soft Blend Blush in "Sahara SBB-02" - Full Size - $17

    Very soft blendable blush! This is my go to blush for this entire month! I really like its natural color. I'm so used to light pinks that this ruddier color looks better and less doll like. For sure a great beginning blush.




Thank you so much for following along.
