Hey guys! Here I am with another late Boxycharm, but are you guys even surprised at this point? Maybe next month I’ll be on time! Anyways, this month’s Boxycharm theme was “Roadtrippin” and came with fine items.
First item is the Chella Beauty Eyebrow Cream. This product is basically a pomade, which I have never actually used before! I really enjoyed the formula of the product – it was smooth, applied well and stayed on pretty well. I wasn’t a big fan of the packaging though. While it did come with a brush, the opening for where the brow cream is is very small, and hard to get the brush into. Overall I liked this product, and makes me want to try more brow pomades! Price: $26.00
Next was the Note Cosmetics Luminous Silk Compact Blusher. I saw online that not a lot of people liked this blush, but I didn’t mind it! I really like the shade I recieved, which was Desert Rose. It was a nice peachy shade and looked nice on the face. The packaging does look and feel cheap, but it matches the price it is. It’s not the best blush ever, but good enough that I would use it again. Price: $11.59
The product I didn’t really like was the Dr. Brandt No More Baggage eye cream. To be honest, I was underwhelmed by the results. It comes out as a orange, tacky gel and does a little bit to help reduce dark circles, but I think a colour corrector could achieve the same effect. I don’t have puffy under eyes, so I didn’t notice it doing anything to reduce my under eye bags. I honestly have gotten better results from using an eye patch that this cream. Overall, I would have preferred the other skincare product that they were offering. Price: $42.00
Next was the Wander Beauty Unlashed Volume and Curl Mascara. I have heard good things about this mascara so I was excited to try it. This is a very volumizing mascara. It really added definition to my lashes with still being fluffy. I found that it didn’t do a ton to length my lashes. I personally prefer a more lengthening mascara over one that volumizes, but this one is still pretty good. I will definitely use it again, but it won’t replace my favourites. Price: $24.00
The final product was the Tarte Ready, Set, Radiant Mist. I really like this mist! I love the smell of cucumber, it’s so relaxing. I do feel refreshed whenever I spray this mist. This product shouldn’t be confused with a setting spray though, because it doesn’t really do much to prolong wear time. It just a way to refresh skin and makeup, and it does a really good job of that. Overall, I will continue to use this product because I like it! Price: $25.00
And that’s it for my July Boxycharm! It wasn’t a bad box, but I found I wasn’t really wow-ed by it. The overall total of the box was $128.99 which is really good! Let me know in the comments what you guys thought about the box!
