Boxycharm February 2017

If you love trying new beauty products but you’re on a budget, say hello to Boxycharm. For just $21 a month, you receive 4-5 full size products from brands like Makeup Geek, Ofra, Marula, etc. Boxes in the past included $50 eyeshadow palettes, highlighters, makeup brushes, nail polish, hair products, and just about every beauty product you can think of. This is my favorite subscription box, hands down. February’s theme was “Galentine” in honor of Valentine’s Day. Take a look at my new beauty steals.

 Is that not amazing??? Everyone received three of the five items pictured above: 2 Makeup Geek shadows, a small Z Palette, and the Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion age defying exfoliator. I also got three eye brushes from Sedona Lace and a full size Japonesque lipstick. I passed the lipstick on to my mom, because I prefer a bold lip. I kept everything else!

 

 The most hyped item for February was without a doubt the Dr. Brandt exfoliator. THIS RETAILS AT $79. How, Boxycharm??? How do you do it? This item by itself is worth almost four times as much as I paid for the entire box. This does exactly what it’s supposed to do, and it leaves my skin feeling so smooth. I do have one issue with this: the smell. I can’t decide if it smells like Pine-Sol or Lemon Pledge, and maybe it’s a mixture of the two scents.

Glamorous, Beaches and Cream

 The eyeshadows were the first sneak peek released on Instagram for this month’s box back in January, and everyone lost their minds. There were several different shades available, and each subscriber got two colors. I got one matte and one shimmer, and that seems to be consistent with other photos and videos I’ve seen. They swatch beautifully, but most importantly they apply to the lids nicely. If you received February’s box, which colors did you get?

I will discuss Z Palette and Sedona Lace in future posts, so don’t worry! My thoughts on these products are soon to be revealed.
