Boxy Charm January 2016 Review
Hey guys! After trying out everything in my Boxy Charm, I decided to give you a review! I will be posting a tutorial of me using everything in this month's box on my channel probably tomorrow. So let's get started!
This month's box's theme was Eyes on 2016 and had four items, compared to the usual five.
1. Coastal Scents Revealed Smoky Palette, $39.95 on sale for $19.95
This is compared to the Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette. UD is on top.
While swatching these shadows, they seemed great. They had great pigmentation. However, when I put them on the eyes, they had a lot of fall out, and didn't last the whole day. I rated these a 3/5.
2. Royal and Langnickel Brush Set, $23.97
I was very excited to receive brushes this month. I received a Royal and Langnickel brush from IPSY a while ago and use it so often. These brushes are so soft and work so well. I will definitely be using them frequently. I rated these a 5/5.
3. Blinc Mascara Amplified, $26
I LOVE this mascara. It is a tubing mascara, so it won't smudge, or budge throughout the day. It is cry proof, waterproof, everything proof. You could literally rub your eyes and it wouldn't move. It is harder to take off than the normal mascara, because you do have to take some warm water and gently push down on your lashes, so if you have sensitive eyes, you may not like this. But, it does come off very easy still. It isn't like normal mascara where once you take it off, there is still some hanging around. This comes completely off and makes your lashes feel like new again. I am very happy with this. I rated this a 5/5.
4. Starlooks Eyeliner, $19
I love felt tip eyeliner pens. They are so easy to use to make a cat eye, and have the pigmentation of a liquid liner, without the huge mess. This one is okay. It is not my favorite (I love the Absolut New York Nano Liner and the Kat Von D Ink Liner). This did smudge very easily for me. You have to be very careful applying it because it is very messy. I rated this a 4/5.
Overall, this month's Boxy Charm was really good! While we only got 4 products, one was a brush set, so we really got 6. I was very impressed with the products, and the total value was $108.92 ($88.92 if you count that the palette is always on sale). Since it only costs $21/month, it is always a great deal, especially since everything is always full size. What did you think of your Boxy Charm this month? Let me know in the comments and be looking out for my video!
