My June BoxyCharm finally arrived! I have been waiting for it because this month’s box is so amazing!
Boxycharm is just $21 a month for 5-6 beauty items, most of them full-sized. It’s an amazing way to try new makeup and beauty tools!
Here is what I received:
- Luxie Face Brushes: Luxie Rose Gold Precision Foundation 660 Luxie Rose Gold Tapered Highlighting Face Brush 522 Luxie Rose Gold Duo Fiber Powder Brush 516
- Battington Monroe Silk Lashes
- Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream
- Alamar Cosmetics Palette
- JonteBlu Eyeliner Pencil in Charcoal
- OFRA Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Verona
I was excited to try these Luxie Brushes. I have some travel Luxie eye shadow brushes I’ve received in another BoxyCharm. I haven’t use them yet, but they are pretty. I think I’m going to try these tomorrow.
I don’t wear false lashes. I’ve tried them years ago, but I didn’t really know how to apply them. I like how wispy these are. I’m going to hold on to them and maybe play around with them.
This smells amazing! It’s such a cute little container. It is a very hydrating, but not greasy cream. Very nice for the summer.
This eye pencil is okay. I’m not the biggest fan of pencils you have to sharpen, plus when I swatched it, it wasn’t very pigmented. I put this in my giveaway pile.
I also put the Ofra lipstick in my giveaway pile. It’s too brown for me. But I really do love their lip formula.
This is the item I was most looking forward to this month! These colors are so pretty. The top 4 are shimmers that can be used wet or dry and the bottom 4 are mattes.
Here are swatches:
The shimmery shades swatch the best, they are so gorgeous! The mattes (of course) don’t swatch as well on my arm, but they blended on my eye really nicely. I think this is gorgeous for some amazing eye-catching looks this summer. I also think it will got into fall nicely, too.
So this month was a win because of the Alamar eye shadow palette. I will also keep the lashes to try out, the brushes and the bum bum cream! The eyeliner and lipstick will be given to a friend. I think this is the most I’ve kept from a BoxyCharm!
Did you receive June’s BoxyCharm? What did you think?
I was so excited about this month! That palette was on my radar immediately and I couldn’t believe we were getting it in our box. I am thrilled that it lives up to the expectations I attached to it.
I don’t wear false lashes either, so I Had a similar reaction to yours. The cream is so strong smelling that I will probably use it very sparingly, but I do love it. I am happy with my brown Ofra lip, and it looks terrible on my daughter so it is absolutely mine. And the brushes are nice too! I am happier this month than last, which was my very first box. Oh yeah-and I agree, the eye liner is sort of a throw away product. Not that I will toss it, it just doesn’t live up to the rest of the box.
I love the eyeshadow palette. Such beautiful warm shades 😊💕👍 great post. Love TGA by Misha
The palette looks so pretty!
It’s so pretty!
The eyeshadow palette looks amazing!!! I heard Kathleen lights on YouTube has been loving it as her friend produced it?? The swatches look amazing xxx
I can’t get over the Alamar palette-what a great first release from a new makeup company-I read some complaints about the mattes having no pigment but that was not my experience at ALL. This is a fantastic palette, probably one of my faves from Boxy.
I agree! They almost have too much pigment for me. I don’t do very many dramatic looks and the palette is DRAMA! LOL! It’s so pretty, though.
It really is-and just having it in my collection makes me happy 😉
