BoxyLuxe December 2018

I have an exciting change to my usual BoxyCharm box. I signed up for the BoxyLuxe. It is a bigger better version of regular BoxyCharm.

I have to say I love this box. It has so many things in it and anything you don’t like you can easily gift to someone.

Luxe Rose Gold Complete Face Brush Set $65. This is my favorite item out of the entire box. The set comes with 8 brushes all in the cute pink handle and rose gold ferrule. Brush set includes: Luxie 532 Round Top Blender, Luxie 522 Tapered Highlighting, Luxie 680 Pro Precision, Luxie 229 Tapered Blending, Luxie 213 Eye Shading, Luxie 221 Flat Definer, Luxie 201 Brow and Lash Spoolie and Luxie 160 Lip Brush.

Tarte Glitter Lip Paint $20. This lip paint is a lip gloss not the usual long staying lip paint. It is a beautiful multi colored sparkling glitter gloss. Definitely something I would wear.

Violet Voss Pro HG Palette $45. This is my second favorite item out of the box. It is mix of warm and cool tones in matte and shimmer finish that are perfect for everyday use or evening out. These eyeshadows blend so easy. I was eyeing it on the Sephora website but I’m glad I didn’t buy it since I received it in this box.

Spongellé Body Wash Infused Buffer $20 in the scent Blossom Bliss. It is a very nice clean smelling berry scented sponge. I do find it to be over priced for a sponge. I have one other one from a Fab Fit Fun box. For whatever reason it’s not something I’m interested in. It for sure is something different, innovative and great for travel but still just a sponge.

Elemis Pro Collagen Marine Cream $89. This cream claims to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and leave your skin supple, firm and radiant. The ingredient list is extremely long on this cream and my sensitive skin usually does not like items with long ingredient lists so I’m probably giving this away as a gift.

Wande Beauty Dusk to Dawn Blush & Highlight Palette $26. This palette is really cute but I find that the highlighter (City Lights) is too intense and golden for my fair skin. It would be a beautiful eyeshadow though. Tuscan Sunrise blush is a peachy bronzy shade. I used this on my cheeks and it did give me a pretty bronzy glow. The Havana Nights is a berry gold sheen shade. All the colors have a gold sheen to them but no glitter. I personally would not pay $26 for this palette. You can find similar shades of blush in the drugstore for much cheaper.

Grande Cosmetics Grandemascara $25. I have not used this mascara yet. I have a couple of mascaras open at the moment so I’m going to save this until those run out. The packaging is really cool. It feels like stainless steel but its all gold. It claims to lengthen and volumize.  It is infused with blend of peptides, pantheons and natural waxes.

PYT Mini Hair Straightener $75. I received the pastel pink one. It is super cute and tiny. I’m a little scared to use it since it doesn’t  have a heat regulator. Usually I only go to 360 on heat and this has only the on and off switch.  It says it heats to 400 degrees.

Crimes of Beauty wristlet +portable charger $22. I’m not a big fan of this wristlet. I don’t like the big white lettering and it feels like a very cheap vinyl pouch. The portable charger is also cheap feeling lightweight plastic. I haven’t actually tested it to see if it works or not.

Overall I do love the box. There really is only one thing I don’t care for. The total value of the box is $387 and the cost of the box itself is only $50.

My BoxyCharm referral Link is here in case you would like to try it out for yourself.

What was your favorite item in the box? Where you happy with it?

Love Kat
