| Boxycharm October 2017 Unboxing |
While I was on vacation my October Boxycharm was delivered and I was so excited to get home and open the box. When you were a child, did you get those surprise bags that had candy inside? I feel like subscription boxes are the equivalent of surprise bags for adults. I actually stalk the spoilers for these boxes and usually have a pretty good idea of the box varieties that are being sent out. Google is the best! This box costs me 33$ Canadian- including the shipping costs. It's a great value and I actually use the products I'm sent.
The first product I was so excited to see was the Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter in Prosecco Pop. This highlighter is gorgeous! Initially, I thought it wouldn't work with my light skin but it does. If you are lighter skin, test out highlighters that seem too dark for you. You'd be surprised to find that some look darker in the pan but will work for you. I have this highlighter in a limited edition Jaclyn Hill palette and I'm happy to also have the single. (Retails 46$)
I second product received was a Dr Brant Pore Dermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator. I've never tried any Dr Brant Products but I have heard great things about them and I'm excited to try this. I'm new to skincare and I've been trying to learn more and try new products. (Retails 68$)
I also received a NCLA "Nailed It Tool" Kit which is great for home or travel. The tools seem to be good quality and I do like the zipper case that it comes in. I will probably use this for more for travel. (Retails 22$)
My box came with a Tartetist Lip Paint in the shade Homeslice. I really like the color and will try this out and provide a further review. This is the quick matte paint formula. I normally prefer a glossy lip but will give this a try. (Retails 24$) The last product I received in my box was a lip liner by Jonteblu. The shade is Brown Sugar. (Retails 6$)
I've been really impressed with my Boxycharm boxes and will continue to purchase them. I love testing out new products and this is a great way to try new to me products. I think I will do unboxing for these products and I will review them once I've had a chance to try them out.

The lip colour in Homeslice looks really gorgeous; such a flattering shades. I've also always been into glosses over matte shades, but you'll be surprised by how quickly you can be converted! haha :) Have a lovely weekend..

I do love Boxy Charm and am kicking myself for taking so long to hop on board. I also like LookFantastic, it's really worth it!

I subscribe to Birchbox and until last month I was really happy with them. Sadly October's contents weren't really for me. I've tried a Dr Brandt pore polisher before and it was brilliant so I'll be interested to see what you think of yours. And, yes, I stalk Google to try and find out what other boxes are sending out too, haha! X

Ohhh I've never heard of this subscription box, gonna take a look into it!
ReplyDeleteI love Prosecco Pop! It's such a beautiful shade. I didn't like Tarte's Lip Paints. I found them to be too drying.
