February 2018 BoxyCharm

I got my Feburary BoxyCharm yesterday afternoon! I’m happy with the box for the most part. This month theme is Galaxy Glow. In case you don’t know what BoxyCharm is, it’s a monthly subscription box that has 5 full size products. The value of the box is usually over $100 and you only pay $21 a month. Which is a GREAT deal!! I would have to say that BoxyCharm is one of my favorite subscription service so far. I’ve been a member for over a year or so now. Most of the time I’m always happy with my box.

So lets talk about what I got in my box this month. As you can see there are some I’m excited for! Here is a list and close up of what I got with their prices.

Naked Cosmetics – Holographic Highlighter Palette - $39.99

CoverFX – Shimmer Veil - $28

Vintage by Jessica Liebeskind – Smokey Eye Pencil - $21

PUR The Complexion Authority – X-Faux Lips Plumping Lip Exfoliator - $17

Crown Pro – Trio Brush Set - $29.99

Total value for this box is $135.98 – I only paid $21!!

I will go ahead and mention that I wasn’t really all that excited for the eye liner, just because I already have several from previous boxes, and some I’ve purchased. I don’t really wear eye liner that often. But I will say I’m excited to try a new brand because I’ve never heard of Vintage by Jessica before. I always love trying out new brands or Indy brands. The card says its by Vintage Cosmetics, but it’s not. That’s an entirely different company. Yes I looked it up. It is actually called Vintage by Jessica Liebeskind. The website is linked below.

I do like some products from PUR so when I saw this lips plumping lip exfoliator I wasn’t sure what to think of it. Never heard of a plumping lip exfoliator before. But I’m excited to try it out. It does smell slightly minty. It’s very subtle.

I do like Naked Cosmetics. I think their eyeshadows are beautiful. But I’m not sure about the highlighter palette. These aren’t colors I would reach for as a highlighter. And they are not HOLOGRAPHIC either. The packaging is holographic, but the powder are iridescent shades. I do see glitter these, so I’m not sure how I’m going to like it. I do see that it says on the card that they are iridescent shades, but the title says otherwise. LOL. I don’t typically like glitter in my highlight. But I will try these out regardless. I don’t want judge it before trying it out. Like they say “You can’t judge a book by it’s cover”. I think I will try these out as eyeshadows as well.

I was so excited to see another Cover FX product in this box! From what I’ve heard this is a fairly new product..I think.. There are 6 shades. It is a mutli-use shimmery crème that claims to be crease-proof. It states that it is suitable for all skin types. The shade I got is in amethyst. As you can see in the picture, it is a beautiful shade! I didn’t swatch it or anything in this box this time because I want to save for upcoming post after I’ve tested these products out. I have another Cover FX product I want to talk about as well. This looks so shimmery in the container. It’s supposed to have a weightless finish.

Last but not least is the Crown Pro trio brush set. I love crown brushes! I have gotten them in several BoxyCharm boxes. They are so soft, and applies products beautifully. So I have no doubts that these will be amazing as well. These are white handle brushes with white/pink hairs, which is new to me. I don’t have any that looks like these. I do have one with a white handle but it has black/white hairs. So I’m excited to add these to my collection and use them.

Overall I’m pretty happy with my box. I will provide links below if you want to try any of these products yourself. They will be affiliate links. I will provide a link if you would like to sign up for BoxyCharm.
