Boxycharm May 2019 review

Boxycharm May 2019

Hi guys todays post is a review of one of my subscription boxes that I receive, this one is called Boxycharm and it is 22 dollars a month and gives you 4 -5 full size products. Usually the end total is over $100 value. So, it’s worth the subscription price. This is the box for May and what I got in my box. I buy this box with my own money.

GLAMGLOW - GENTLEBUBBLE CLEANSER- $28.00

Gentle, but make it bubbly! This daily conditioning gel cleanser gently but effectively cleanses skin and dissolves makeup. Oat amino acids condition while the vegan formula with apple extract, vitamin E and green tea extract bubbles up to deep clean and remove impurities. Soap, fragrance and SLS/SLES-free. All skin types-approved.

This product is ok, It seems like a basic facial wash, and I am not sure if it was this or what but after using this I seemed to have more break outs than normal. I will continue to try and use this, Or I will pass it on to my kids and see if it works for them. So, this product gets an 8 out of 10 for me. It’s a basic cleanser.

ALAMAR - COLORETE BLUSH TRIO- $22.00

Get your blush on with your new Alamar Cosmetics Colorete Blush Trio. Formulated to glide effortlessly over your cheeks, this buttery smooth, highly pigmented & completely vegan formula delivers a sun-kissed flush without the damage of the rays.

These blushes are soft and amazing, they apply like silk and are beautiful, my only complaint is that they are a little light for my skin tone however that could be due to the way I filled out the profile. But with the way it applies it can build on itself which is nice so I can get it to show up it just takes a little work; this is a 9 out of 10 from me. Gorgeous color, creamy formula and buildable what more can you ask for in a blush trio.

DOSE OF COLORS - MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK- $18.00

Your new Dose of Colors Liquid Matte Lipstick has a velvety, high-fashion matte finish which envelops lips in rich, long-wearing color. It applies as a creamy liquid, but after a few minutes it dries to an ultra-comfortable matte finish.

This was probably the product that I was the most excited to get, I have heard such amazing things about the dose of color line. I love the formula, its smooth and creamy and dries down completely, my only disappointment was that all of the videos I saw with others reviewing this, they got an amazing bright red, the shade I got was a purplish nude shade that matches the color of my lips. Now I am not mad at the shade but when you see the red you kind of expect the red shade. The shade I got however is a more wearable color for me and I am actually glad I got it. This is a 9 out of 10 for me. Great formula, dries completely and like the shade I got better than the one advertised.

CIATE LONDON - EYE LUSTRE CRÈME EYESHADOW- $22.00

Your new Ciaté London's Eye Lustre will help you create long-lasting, shimmering eye shadow looks. The metallic, glittering liquid shadow can be swiped on for full coverage lustre, blended out for sheer sparkle or applied over any eyeshadow as a topper. Available in two shades: Cupid - universal rose gold; Ice – sparkling diamond frost

Ok this looked very cool, I was stoked to try it out, it was a pearlescent purple shade in the tube, but on the eyes, it went a goldish color, which I thought was quite cool. and I thought it was going to be beautiful as a shadow topper. I don’t know if the problems I had with this was due to the product or if it was user error, but when I put it on my eyes it didn’t seem to dry down, it was very hard to blend and it seemed to smear all over, I had glitter everywhere. I think that it was probably my fault as I stated in an earlier review, I am not good with liquid shadows. So, I will continue to try this out and will hopefully get it to work for me. This is a 7 out of 10 for me Beautiful shade and I love the sparkle but hard to apply not very user friendly

BODYOGRAHY - EYELINER PENCIL - $14.00

This vegan, cruelty free Bodyography Lip Pencil is antioxidant rich, infused with coconut oil and vitamin E. The smooth yet long-wearing formula glides on effortlessly, delivering durable pigment that can frame, fill in and define the lips.

Ok was not impressed with this liner, this one was difficult to use, it tugged at my eye and was kind of painful to apply and was not a wearable color, I got it in a green shade. I don’t wear greens all that much, especially liners. So, this one gets a 5 out of 10 for me. Difficult to apply, I have other pencil liners I like better and that I will reach for. Not sure if I just got an over dry one. The green is pretty though just not a shade I wear.

Ok so for the grand total for this month’s box is: $104 not bad, I would recommend boxycharm any day especially if your wanting to expand your makeup collection but don’t want to spend a ton of money.

Thanks for reading today, what did you get? Did you get similar to what I got? And do you love it?
