BoxyCharm Subscription Box Review – December 2017

IMG_9888

IMG_9891

I received my BoxyCharm December 2017 box a couple of weeks ago, and it’s taking me a while to get to it!  My anniversary, my daughter’s birthday and Christmas have left me behind a bit on my blog!

Boxycharm is just $21 a month for 5-6 beauty items, most of them full-sized.

Here’s what I received from BoxyCharm:

IMG_9893

Real Her Blush Kit – (32 USD)

Crown WH035 PRO BLUSH BRUSH – ($12 USD)

Tarte Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara – ($23 USD)

Pretty Vulgar My Lips Are Sealed Liquid Lipstick –  ($24 USD)

bellapierra Pro Concealer Palette – ($29.99 USD)

IMG_9896

The Real Her Blush Kit is a very shimmery blush palette.  I really like the color Fearless on the left, which is a pretty pink.  Limitless is a nice coral and Unstoppable is bronze.  All of the color cosmetics I received will be swatched below.

I do like blush with a bit of shimmer, but this is pretty sparkly.  I can see using this in the summer time, especially  Fearless and Unstoppable.  I also like the packaging.  It’s a heavy duty cardboard and will be easy to travel with.

IMG_9900

I’m always so happy when brushes are included in BoxyCharm!  I love trying new brushes, and this one is great!  The bristles are densely packed and really soft.  I like how it’s oval shaped, it can be used for blush, highlight or bronzer.  The handle is sturdy plastic with indentations for grip.

IMG_9901

This is the second time I’ve tried the Tartiest mascara.  It has hard rubber bristles instead of more natural ones.  It’s okay, and can be built up for length and volume, but it never gets super glam like tarte’s Lights, Camera Lashes or IT Cosmetics Superhero.  It is a good everyday mascara.

The Pretty Vulgar (great name) lip gloss is metallic and pretty sticky, but it’s okay. I probably won’t use it often.

IMG_9898IMG_9899 The Bellapierre  Pro Concealer Palette is very pigmented.  I tried the orange under my eyes.  It didn’t blend well, but my concealer did cover the orange up and it looked okay.  I probably won’t use again.

Here are swatches of all of the color products:

img_9894.jpg

The first three colors are the color correcter palette, the second three are the blush and the lip color is the last swatch.  The only thing I really like are the first and third blush colors.

So this month was okay, but nothing wowed me.  I will use the blush brush and mascara.  I might use the blush palette.  I probably won’t wear the lip color and I definitely will toss the color correction palette.  What’s interesting about BoxyCharm is that they always have a couple decent brands, plus a few meh or poor quality brands/products.  But, at $21, the value is amazing!

Next month, the spoilers are IT Cosmetics Brow Power brow pencil, DR. BRANDT SKINCARE pores no more® Luminizer Primer, Crown Glam Metals Palette and a face palette from an unknown brand.  If those sound good to you (for $21), you can join here   There may be a wait list, and that is my affiliate link.

What did you get in your BoxyCharm this month?

Get Your Shine On With Metallic Makeup For Fall!

Metallic eyes and lips are very on trend this fall. And luckily, we can achieve the look without spending a ton!

I was sent these gorgeous metallic eye shadows, a lip topper and brushes for my honest review:

CATRICE Liquid Metal Eyeshadow
CATRICE Liquid Metal Eyeshadow ($5.99 USD each) — This highly pigmented powder, with a liquid metal finish, instantly creates stand-out eyes. Unique 3D embossment turns this eyeshadow into an absolute highlight.
What I think:  I love these, they are so pretty on.  I apply them with the wand  then blend with my finger.  They blend really well, but they dry quickly so I have to be careful!  Once they dry, they are only coming off when taken off!  The shades are so pretty on and can be built up for a really shimmery metallic look!
essence cosmetics The Metals Eyeshadows
essence cosmetics The Metals Eyeshadows ($3.99 USD each) — This new formula goes on smooth with serious color pay-off and a metallic shimmer. Available in 9 shades ranging from soft bronze to vibrant teal.
What I think:  These are metallic powder shadows in perfect shades for fall!  They apply well and blend out nicely.  I like using a brush for a softer look, but when I apply with my fingers, it’s full glamour!  And the price is hard to beat!  You can stock up with a few shades to make a complete eye look.
CATRICE Million Styles Lip Topcoat
CATRICE Million Styles Lip Topcoat ($5.99 USD each) — The creamy texture provides a shimmering finish, or covers the lips with silver-metallic particles. Simply apply over dried lipstick for an instant transformation – the effect is intensified with every coat.
What I think: This comes in two shades.  I have the shade on the left, Shade 20: Metallic, which is a silver shade.  There is also Shade 10: Highlight – for a iridescent finish.  The metallic one looks really cool alone (Halloween?) and very pretty over lipstick or lip gloss.  This is a really cool way to switch up your look.
MODA Metallics Custom Flip Kit

MODA Metallics Custom Flip Kit ($24.99 USD) — Start with MODA Brushes signature limited edition black studded Flip Kit and add 3 Finishing and Complexion brushes and 3 Eye, Brow and Lip brushes. You’ll be set to slay your weekend travel the Metallic way.

What I think:  I have been testing lots of MODA brushes and really like the quality.  They have soft synthetic bristles that blend really nicely.  The metallic collection is really gorgeous and there are lots so different brushes to choose from to customize your kit!

Hair Tools and Products That Work From Summer into Fall!

It’s almost Fall!  Yay!  Time to get a new ‘do. At least that’s what I like to do, change up my look for the new season.  If I don’t want or need a new haircut, I like to change up the styling of my hair.

I have been sent new tools and products to test out for my honest opinion. They include styling tools and products to hydrate hair and get it ready for styling:

Bed Head Curlipops Tourmaline Ionic Diffuser Dryer

Bed Head Curlipops Tourmaline Ionic Diffuser Dryer ($34.99 USD) — Sweeten up your style with Bed Head Curlipops. The Curlipops Tourmaline Ionic Diffuser Dryer gives your hair massive texture and outrageous volume. Don’t blow it, diffuse it!

  • 1875 Watts
  • Diffuser dryer
  • Don’t blow your style. Diffuse it.
  • Tourmaline Ionic Technology for frizz-free texture and massive shine
  • 2 Heats/Speeds for styling flexibility
  • Cold shot button to set the style
  • 120 Voltage

What I think:  This is such an easy way to get curls or texture in your hair!  Just run the diffuser through hair while drying and you get volume and piecey curls or texture.  My hair is wavy, and this amps it up!  It is curlier and has tons more volume after use.  And for girls with curly hair, this cuts the frizz and defines curls.

Available at Ulta stores and http://www.ulta.com

Bed Head Line Up Electric Mini Ceramic Travel Straightener in Electric Green

Bed Head Line Up Electric Mini Ceramic Travel Straightener ($19.99 at Target)  Recharge your mane with serious shine and a boost of attitude with this easy-to-use, no fuzz straightener. Don’t let its portable size fool you, though– the 1″ ceramic plates give you seriously straight, extra shiny and frizz-free hair that lasts. It is perfect for on-the-go touch-ups and comes in a clear travel pouch.

What I think:  This is tiny!  It’s really cute (I have it in Electric Green).  Even though it is so small, it works very well to straighten and smooth hair.  This is so nice to help battle what humidity does to my hair and it keeps it looking nice.  It has a bag that you can carry it in and stick in your purse.  This is also great for the college student who doesn’t have a lot of room, or for travels.

Available at Target stores and http://www.target.com

Infusium Repair + Renew Original Leave-In Treatment

Infusium Repair + Renew Original Leave-In Treatment ($7.96 USD at Walmart) — The drugstore essential is perfect for repairing summer-damaged hair. This fast, convenient spray protects and maintains hair health. The Infusium Repair + Renew Leave-in Treatment helps repair two years of damage in just one use! It is infused with Argan Oil and Keratin to help build strength and elasticity, and promote smoothness.

What I think:  This is a quick and easy way to really treat and repair hair.  Just spritz it on wet or damp hair and it dries soft and shiny!  This also helps with frizzies.  It has a soft, fresh scent.  I love how affordable it is, too.

Purchase at Walmart, http://www.walmart.com and other mass market retailers.

Marc Anthony Curl Envy Deep Hydrating Mask

Marc Anthony Curl Envy Deep Hydrating Mask ($7.99 USD) — Blended with Vitamin E, Avocado Oil and 100% pure Shea Butter, this ultra-rich mask by Marc Anthony treats extra dry, damaged, frizzy curls with moisture to create soft, smooth, defined curls with shine. Helps to reduce split-ends and breakage.

What I think:  I’m a fan of a good hair mask!  This one is a bit heavy for my fine, wavy hair.  But, I think it would be great for girls and guys with thick hair or curls.  It does have a strong lemon/lime soda scent.  It’s not my favorite, but it’s not offensive.  I do love the natural ingredients in it.

Purchase at Ulta stores, http://www.ulta.com and other mass retailers.

Easily Clean and Dry Makeup Brushes With The Brush Bar and The Brush Board

 

Being a makeup lover, I have to make sure to keep my tools clean.  So when I was approached by The Brush Bar to review their brush cleaning and drying products, I was so excited!

So what are these products?

The Brush Bar – a smart tool that lets you dry your makeup brushes without damaging or misshaping them! Doubles as a organization tool – no more digging around for the right brush!

The Brush Board – the first makeup brush exfoliator that deep cleans between bristles for the quickest clean – no more scrubbing foundation brushes 10 times!

Above is The Brush Board.  It has three different scrubbing surfaces to clean all types of makeup brushes.  I wet my brush, then rubbed it across the board a few times.  I then rinse it and see if I need to scrub it again.  It’s a really fast (and a way less messy) way to cleanse my brushes!  When not in use, I wash and dry it and put it back in it’s protective case.

I love this!  It’s such a great idea and something I will use often to clean my brushes.

This is The Brush Bar hanging from the side of my sink. To use it, I just unfold the prongs and close it.  Then I place it on the side of my sink and hang my wet brushes upside down.

It held my brushes tightly. There are different sizes of the prongs, for smaller and larger brushes. My brushes fully dried in a couple of days without losing their shape.

I think that these are ingenious products that are also fun to use!  I highly recommend them.

Ulta Mother’s Day Haul

My kids gave me an Ulta gift card as a part of my Mother’s Day gifts this year.  I don’t usually shop a lot for makeup since I receive a lot of fun products to review.

I was excited to grab some things I needed — and I got a fun free gift, too!

The items that I purchased was the Real Techniques 203 Tapered Shadow brush, The Ulta Beauty Matte Eye Primer and the Ulta Beauty Juice Infused Lip Oil in Green Tea + Avacado.

Ulta Beauty had a gift with purchase, too.  It’s a deluxe Palette with any $16.50 ULTA Beauty Cosmetics, Brushes, and Beauty Tools purchase (offer valid 5/14/17-6/3/17 or while supplies last).  Here’s the palette:


Gift includes:

  • Eyeshadow in 24 shades (0.46 oz)
  • Color Rush Lip Gloss in Brigitte and Proper (0.04 oz each)
  • Matte Lip Cream (0.04 oz)
  • Blush (0.16 oz)
  • Face Powder (0.16 oz)
  • Eyeliner Pencil in Black/Brown (0.02 oz)

I’ve been playing with the palette and really like it.  There are lots of fun eyeshadows.  I find the mattes more pigmented than the glitters or shimmers, but they can be layered on for a deeper color.  The highlighter, blushes and bronzer are highly pigmented and are very pretty on my fair skin.  I like the blush brush that comes with it.  The lip colors are bright.  I like to wear softer lip colors, but they are nice.  I am going to take this with me on my summer trip for my eyeshadows and face color.  It will come in very handy.

Real Techniques Bold Metals 203 Tapered Shadow Brush ($12.99 USD) is densely packed and precision cut for blending shadow into the crease and eyelid for a seamless finish.

I lost my all over eyes hadow brush, so I needed a replacement.  This picks up the pigment well and blends okay.  I think it will work for now.   The handle is nice and has a good weight to it.

Ulta Beauty Juice Infused Lip Oil in Green Tea + Avocado ($9 USD) — Ulta’s Juice Infused Lip Oil is a luxurious lip oil infused with a combination of natural ingredients that nourish and smooth your lips. Each of the shades offer separate ingredient benefits providing a combination of lip mending properties. The Juice Infused Lip Oils do not have any color once applied; they apply clear.

I like this very much.  It has a fresh flavor and is very hydrating on.  I wear lots of lip balms and oils and this is a good one!  I’ll probably try some of the other flavors later.

Ulta Nude Matte Eye Primer ($12 USD) — Ulta’s Eye Primer is a must have product for a crease fee look that lasts all day! Use this exclusive eye primer under eyeshadow to prolong wear and eliminate creasing. Can be used with virtually any eyeshadow formula – powder, gel, mousse, loose pigment, you name it!

I haven’t used this yet, but I will tomorrow.  I let you know if it’s awesome!

My Beauty Favorites — Week of April 24-30, 2017

We have had a rainy weekend in Kansas City, and it has been nice to relax inside!  I have been enjoying some of the new beauty products I have been sent for my honest review!

My favorites this week include an iridescent highlighter, a new way to apply my makeup, an firming eye cream, a sea salt spray that makes my hair thicker

Hard Candy Iridescent Pearl Highlighter

Hard Candy Iridescent Pearl Highlighter ($6 USD) is a pearl illuminator that leaves skin with a wearable but trendy iridescent shimmer. This powder includes light-reflective pearls that diffuse light. The universal shade is flattering on all skin tones and smoothly applies to your skin with easy soft, sweeping motions. The result is a trendy but wearable prismatic illumination that catches light and turns heads. Great lighting will follow you around everywhere you go and you will always be photo-ready with this beautifully unique iridescent highlighting powder.

What I think: I have been wanting to try this trend, and this is an affordable (and gorgeous) way to do it. I apply the powder anywhere I want to glow, including the cheekbones, tip of the nose, collarbones, and under the arch of my brows. It’s so pretty on. I use a little, but layer it and you get a great evening out look!

The Makeup Drop

The Makeup Drop ($20 USD)  Our Silicone Makeup Applicator was designed to completely eliminate wasted makeup and skincare. While sponge applicators soak up large amounts of makeup during application, the MakeupDrop perfectly applies and blends your foundation, blush, highlighter, concealer, moisturizer, and primer without absorbing one drop! Only half the amount of product is needed as compared to a traditional sponge or brush applicator.

What I think: This is such an interesting way to apply makeup!  It only takes a little bit of product, although when I use it, I find I need to do one area of my face at a time, because it doesn’t spread too well.  It does blend nicely after a little bit of practice. The coverage is really good, too!

Purchase at http://www.makeupdrop.com

MALIN+GOETZ revitalizing eye cream

MALIN+GOETZ Revitalizing Eye Cream ($92 for .5 fl. oz)  This multi-benefit treatment is intensely nourishing, yet feels incredibly lightweight and luxurious. Powerfully addresses the look of all major eye concerns, including lines, wrinkles, puffiness and dark circles with an advanced blend of firming peptides and skin renewing Marine Algae extract. Strengthens and helps protect your eye area so it stays looking brighter, smoother, more supple.

What I think: I have severe seasonal allergies, and my eyes get very irritated this time of year.  So, I usually don’t wear eye cream as much.  But this one didn’t bother my eyes and actually helped me look more rested.  It firmed and smoothed the eye area right away.  This is an eye cream that I can use all year!

Available at http://www.malinandgoetz.com

Philip B. Maui Wowie Volumizing & Thickening Beach Mist

Philip B. Maui Wowie Volumizing & Thickening Beach Mist ($25 USD) –Ultra-light spray gives hair sexy volume and shiny, piecey, tousled waves (plus a gorgeous beachy scent).

Blend of Sea Salt and Aloe Vera creates gorgeous lift.

What I think:  First of all, this smells amazing! I spritz it in damp hair and it thickens and gives my hair great waves.  I just use a little, and it looks like I’ve been at the beach (lies since I live in the Midwest).  This will be a mainstay this summer.
