☼☼ September Boxycharm Unboxing + August Review☼☼

           September Boxycharm Unboxing 
                                    + 
                         August 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.)





Sweet! I've gotten a different step out of the step from this line in Boxycharm in the past. I hope they send me the other 4 parts soon! It doesn't have any sort of scent. It is a lotion for your face... so not sure how much I'll use this right now unless I get some really harsh cleanser the next time I go shopping. Otherwise.. it would cause breakouts!
(This did not have any kind of safety seal on it) 



LOVE brushes. I've already opened this and used it and it is one of my new favorites. (I washed this and dried it for this blog picture ha ha I used it almost immediately.) 









Beautiful burgandy colored eye liner. I used this the day I got it as well. I'm not in love with the blending brush sponge part that is one one end but I just won't use it. I tried it and it wasn't very successful. 





Perfect timing! I just ran out of this stuff. I like this formula too. It doesn't make my eyebrows crunchy and it doesn't smell. Not too much else to say about eyebrow gel! Um... it isn't very liquidous.. I'm used to the E.L.F. one which you can SEE the gel-ish formula but this didn't look like that. It held well though. It was clear as well.

(This came with safety seal wrapper on it)






These look......horrible. Ha ha. I've seen them on nails though and they are BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait to put them on. I'm inserting a photo from the website to show. I'm not putting these on tonight. Sorry. Ha ha. Plus these hands are more beautiful. I like nail wraps so I was happy to see these in my box. Especially white/negative space/ gold ones! My favorite.

These are sealed and it comes with a warning to use them within a month of opening them. WHAT does that mean?! These nail wraps lose their freshness? Ha ha. Interesting.



There was also this coupon (won't show lol) cute that they customized it for Boxycharm!





This is another hair treatment oil. We seem to get these on a constant basis in Boxycharm boxes.  This one is a "seed oil" and it says that is "black seed" whatever seed that means... It smooths hair, nourishes, and makes it stronger and shinier. I love the smell of hair oils. This has an oily sweet smell that is subtle. I like it. 

(There was a safety seal on this - under the lid) 

Total spent for the bag: $21
Total bag is worth: $129

Boxycharm is my FAVORITE box hands down I think. I'm always really happy with their boxes. Totally worth the $21 obviously and I really love the products.


   1. NOIS Shield Leave-in Conditioner - Full Size - $26


This is too heavy to be massaged into my scalp. The smell is GREAT (sweet/not overpowering to my sensitive lungs) and it doesn't weigh my hair down when used like a normal leave-in. I like knowing I have extra protection on my hair.

2. Mica Beauty Gel Eyeliner


I like using this eyeliner a lot! This is my first gel liner and it is a lot easier to use than I thought it would be. It dries quickly and isn't too runny or too goopy.

3. Seta Eyeliner Brush - Full Size - $16


Good brush. Love getting them, always will. Works great with the liner

4. So Susan Statement Skin Highlighter - Full Size - $20


I like this and have used it every day I wore makeup this past month! I like that it can be used subtly as well as built up.

5. Revealed 3 palette


LOOOOOOOOOVE! I used this today on a purple/pink look which is something I haven't tried yet.


Thank you so much for following along.

☼☼March Boxycharm Unboxing☼☼


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

This is a OIL-FREE (I didn't realize this) tonic with daisy flower extract and hyaluronic acid that helps to reduce redness, swelling, and brighten and whiten skin! This doesn't have a smell which is good for having it on my sensitive skin. I've tried it twice since getting it and I really enjoy it. 

The directions say specifically to use the dropper to put 5 drops on your fingertips and rub them together quickly to warm it before applying it first to the top of your face then another five drops for the bottom half of your face. It soaks into your hands pretty quickly so don't rub them together too long.

Of course.. I doubt I'd ever repurchase a face serum like this at $48 a POP! WHEWWWW. I didn't want to wash it off my HANDS because it felt like I was washing off gold. Ha ha. Dramatic? Maybe... but true 'nuff.

2. Oscar Blandi Dry Shampoo Spray - 1.2 oz Value $9 (comes out white)



I noticed that other people were getting other Oscar Blandi products in their boxes! Dry shampoos can never combat the oil in my hair but I'll give this one a go. I have heard of Oscar Blandi products but it has been years since I've seen or used them. I wonder if this is their come back attempt! I would have preferred to get the mousse I see others have received. Since, I have naturally uber wavy hair that I LOVE using mousse in.

3. OFRA Eyeliner in "Coffee Bean" - FULL SIZE! Value $13






Love this! First Ofra is one of my absolute favorite companies so I'm glad to try something else of theirs. I own like 6 colors of eyeliner and I've never bought a brown for myself. I have to say I like how light and dark I can make it and it isn't too sharp for my eyelid. Just soft enough!

4. LVX Nail Lacquer in "Lemondrop" - FULL SIZE! Value $16




First layer



Second layer



Third layer


 I was excited that I got the lemon-drop shade of polish. I'm not impressed with this formula even though it has a large purchase price. It took three coats (I've never had to do three) to get coverage and I'm not sure if you can tell by the third layer picture it is STILL patchy. I'll keep this to use for designs though. There were two other shades that charmers received (Mynt and Deco)

5. Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint in "Charmed" - FULL SIZE! Value $24


 Before and after on my lips



Also, it came with this 20% off coupon in the box!



SWEET! I love Tarte. I'm excited for the coupon too. I like this pink for Spring and I don't own any of their lip crayons (there are 12 shades.) It has a minty flavor that is subtle once on the lips. 

Total spent for the bag: $21
Total bag is worth: $110
Total saved: $89

That is a win!
