☼☼ June Boxycharm Unboxing + May 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.)



 Front of card

Back of card


 Front of coupon: Mali beads


Here is the coupon code: BOXYCHARM for $20 off









I'm excited about this! The directions say to apply to my face and let it dry. I love the green color, right? Cover my face with green slime... in order to be prettier. That sounds like me. This is supposed to tighten skin, diminish fine lines, and enhance blood circulation. That sounds good. lol. 





This is my first kabuki brush! I'm excited to finally have one even though this one is TINY! The brush is more dense than I thought it would be. There was some shedding though.... so not sure about that $29.99 price tag! 


 Out of the tube! GOLD!
 Out of the sun. Click (or select the photo) to see it closure.
 In the sun! So beautiful.


This is interesting! I love the packaging, I love that there is pineapple, green tea, and vitamin C! It says you can use it as a regular highlight under brow or on cheeks and inner corner of they eye. OR... mix it with your foundation for a subtle glow! Or even... in a lotion.

I've read a few places that this company is launching their own subscription box! How does that work? lol. I mean.. will it just be THEIR products? Hmm. 






This is from their nude line - color Volume IV - I didn't want to take off my coral nail polish (because I just put it on yesterday lol) so I just took off the ring fingers and added this nude shade. I LOVE this color. I love how nude colors look on my hands. This is ONE COAT. Such an amazing formula. Not streaky, Self leavening is nice. 







I'd like to start saying that a lot of people got a "Doucce Click Click Lipstick" rather than this in their boxes. My heart is shriveling up and dying every time LIPSTICK is an option and the cosmos aren't in alignment in time for me to get one. WHAT do I need to DO... in order to get the sticks for my LIPS?!  Plus.... it clickclicks.. to open? I might just buy myself one. Shame. 

Moving on.... this pinkie lavender shade is unusual and on any other day I'd be thrilled with it. I like cargo eyeshadows.

Total spent for the bag: $21
Total bag is worth: $117.99
Total saved: $96.99

MAY REVIEW


I like this bronze shimmer for my temples and what not (I don't use it on my cheeks) it leaves a nice glow on my pale-ish skin without looking dirty.


Perfection. I love this COLOR and formula. The Lip Bar has crazy shades though so I'm not sure how soon I'll be purchasing another of their lipsticks.


This is amazing! I tried the darkest shade first because my brows are BLLLACKKKKK. It was TOO dark though. I prefer the middle brown shade. I use the lightest shade as an eyeshadow! This is a VERY pigmented little trio. I have to use a REALLY light hand with it.


The spoolie on this brush is normal. Nothing FANTASTIC to say about it lol but I have a complaint about the brush end. It is SO stiff that sometimes I forget and try and run it through my brow BACKWARD.. and it huuuuuuuurts. OUCH. I've done it TWICE and it was painful. I still use it every day though. lol. 


I didn't have a color like this. I like the formula well enough. I'll always enjoy trying new colors of polish!

Thank you so much for following along.

☻☻February Lip Monthly Unboxing + January Review☻☻



Lip Monthly is a monthly subscription box for LIP products (plus one non-lip item.) Every month, they will send out a new set of lip products. Sometimes the lip boxes have different colors but usually they are all the same brand.



I was not given this box. All opinions are my own. Based off my preferences! :D
Cost: $10 per month
They ship to the U.S., Canada, and Internationally





Below is a before and after with this product





I actually really like this color and the feel of this gloss. I still would consider it a sticky gloss but I have to admit it is the least sticky that I've had on my lips. I'll use it once out of the house and if I still like it I'll keep it but if not I'll be passing it along.





 Below is a before and of this product on my lips



 I love this plumping lip tint. It has a nice tingle in it without the mint flavor. In fact it smells just like berries! I adore the scent and the feel of this soft tinted lip balm product. The shape is extremely difficult to work with getting in corners though! Dome = not great. When are they going to come out with a RAZOR sharp lip stick shape?







I'm not sure how much I'll be reaching for a blue color like this but I'm excited to add it to my collection! It is soft and has a nice metallic sheen to it when swatched. 




Top: Coral and Dark Pink
Bottom: White and Red


Below is the teeny tiny brush that came with this quad.


These are swatches the first two are the bottom left to right. The second two are the top left to right.


Below is:
The Red
 The Coral
 The Pink
 The White


I really like the feel of these! I didn't try them on my cheeks because I'm not into creamy blushes. I think only the "red" at the top is flattering to my complexion. Sadly, I'll be passing this along to my cousin. They feel super smooth on the lips and from what I could tell while wearing each one they are staining. I had a bit of a time getting them off my hand after swatching too!

Total spent for the bag: $10
Total bag is worth: $58
Total saved: $48

Let it be noted on here that the total on the card has the products as worth more but I used my totals straight from the companies websites. According to the card the bag total is $64.

Here is the video unboxing of this bag!
