BoxyCharm Subscription Box - August 2016

Hello Beauties <3

BoxyCharm is a monthly subscription box that includes 5 full and luxury size beauty items for $21 a month. This month's theme is Express Yourself.

Here is a peek of the August box of beauties........




Beauty For Real Eyeshadow Stx in All Day Latte - Full Size $19 for 0.049 oz

These water resistant cream to powder eyeshadow sticks blend really well when first applied but you only have around 10-15 seconds before it sets. It will stay put until you remove it with some good makeup remover and a wipe. All Day Latte is described as a soft brown with a hint of burgundy but to me a see more a pretty lilac.

Dirty Little Secret Velvet Matte Liquid Lipstick in Phantom - Full Size $10 for 0.10 oz

Phantom is described as a fire red with orange undertones and is a limited edition color. The packaging is cute and reminds me of Minnie Mouse.

Doucce Cosmetics Maxlash Volumizer Mascara - Full Size $22 for 0.45 oz

Maximizes and defines lashes with instant volume with no clumping or smudging.

Aloette Skincare Time Repair Serum - Full Size $48 for 1 oz

This silky soft serum minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with age defying green tea extracts and alpha and beta hydroxy acids.

Coastal Scents Blush & Bronzer Mini Palette (includes brush) Value $13.95 + $6 


Approximate value of this box - $118.95

BoxyCharm Subscription Box Review - August 2015

Hello Beauties <3

BoxyCharm is a monthly subscription box that includes 5 full and luxury size beauty items for $21 a month.

Here is a peek at the August box of beauties........


If you subscribe to BoxyCharm you will know the box has changed this month and is all black with white lettering. I did like the previous design of a white box with pink lettering but I guess it was time for a change. 



Total value of this box is $136.95 (Coastal Scents palette is on sale for $19.95 so the box could also be valued at $116.95) Either way it's still a great deal.


Now for an up close and personal look at the goodies. First up is the Coastal Scents Revealed 3 palette. It features 20 all new eyeshadow colors in matte and shimmer finishes. BoxyCharm did include Revealed and Revealed 2 palettes in previous boxes.

Next up is the Mica Beauty Black Gel Eyeliner. It is a smudge proof liner that dries quickly and lasts longer than regular eyeliners. (Retails for $35 - 0.14 oz)  It is accompanied with a Seta Eyeliner brush that is perfect for achieving a flawless line. (Retails for $16)


The Mica gel liner is creamy and goes on smoothly however I am not sure what they mean by "quick drying" I swatched it on my hand and 15 minutes later it was still not dry.


Nios Shield Leave-In Conditioner (Retails for $26 - 4 oz). It has Moroccan Argan Oil to tame frizz while adding a healthy shine. The SPF 15 protects your scalp from the sun as well as your hair color. It can be applied to wet or dry hair.


And lastly we have the So Susan Statement Skin highlighting crayon in Candlelight. (Retails for $20 - 0.06 oz) It has a unique chiseled head that allows you cover large areas of your face or target smaller ones for a more precise application. Adds the perfect glow to your complexion.

Well beauties, that's all I have for you today.
