July Boxy Charm

by Jeyroxs86Leave a Comment on July Boxy Charm

              This month’s box was all about being natural box which I found to be an interesting theme for the month of July. I would of thought the theme for the box would be waterproof summer makeup. In the humid weather makeup can just melt off your face, there is a good foundation out there that is sweatproof its Estee Lauder’s Double Wear Stay in Place Foundation. I wore this foundation at my wedding, a music festival, and other events, it really holds up. Here are the items that I received in my box this month.  

Butter London Natural Goddess Eyeshadow Palette

              The palette contains six eyeshadows, its very good quality the eyeshadows are very buttery and pigmented. They are very easy to blend, my favorite shades are the lighter shades in the palette they are very work friendly.

Elemis Superfood Vital Veggie Mask-

            I was really excited to get this my box, I really like their products. In one of the earlier boxy charm boxes I got a collagen cream in it, which I used every morning I really enjoyed it. I have tried this mask a couple of times its really nice so far it leaves my feeling very soft, and hydrated. It contains good for you ingredients such as avocado, kale, chia seed oils, and more.

Koh Gen Do Spa Cleansing water cloths

              These are nice thick cloths that remove makeup really well, however I think they are overpriced you can the makeup remover wipes from Neutrogena and save some money. I don’t typically don’t remove my makeup with wipes I use the Philosophy Purity Cleanser and my Luna Facial Cleansing Device.

Luxie Gaea Piece Brush Set

              This set comes a foundation brush, precision crease brush, and blending brush. I have only used the foundation brush so far and I really like it. I use it to apply skin masks, and I used this weekend to apply Boscia Black Charcoal Mask which is black. After applying the mask I was immediately it cleaned really well. I was afraid the mask my stain the brush bristles, but it didn’t.

Luna By Luna Lip Gloss in Mars

              Its pretty gloss its non sticky, it has just the right amount of shimmer in it. Its work wear friendly, its currently in my purse, I have been wearing it to work. It last about three or fours on me which is fine for me, after about four hours its time for lunch. I reapply it again for the afternoon.

              These are the things that I got in my boxy charm for this month my favorite products from  box have to be the Elemis Veggie Mask, the luxie brush set, and the luna lipgloss. What did you get in this months boxy charm box ?                                                                                                                                                                                                 

Fab Fit Fun Box Summer 19

by Jeyroxs861 Comment on Fab Fit Fun Box Summer 19

I started subscribing to the Fab Fit Fun boxes back in October of last year, so my first box was the Fall 18 one with the Vince Camuto tote in brown. I was not sure when I got the first box how much I would use the products that were inside the box. To my surprise I find that I use most of the products that I get in each box, with some exceptions. In one box I got the swell water bottle, I don’t use all that much, sadly it stays in one of the pockets of swiss gear backpack for work. As I write this I realize that I don’t drink a ton of water, I should drink more than I am currently, and my work place provides free water.

In the Summer box I received several things I’m already using, I also had two add-ons to my package which was the Ciate Astrolights Jewelled Palette, and the Butter London Gel Highlighter in Champagne.

VIX Paula Hermanny Lotus Towel- This one of the first things I took out of the box, I was kind of surprised to get a towel in the box, its not something I was expecting. I think its meant to be more of a beach towel, I use it as a regular towel. Being in Southern Ohio there are hardly any beaches around me unless you want to go the lake, Im not down for that. I ended up liking the towel its very cute.

Summer & Rose Diamond Toted

This is a nice summery tote, Im actually using the bag as my everyday bag. The bag is pretty sturdy and it holds quite a bit. It fits my I Pad Pro the 12.9 inch one, I don’t have to many bags or totes in my collection that would fit my Ipad. I could also fit my laptop too that’s to much weight in one bag to carry around. I take my ipad to work, I have the apple pencil that goes with it, its wear I take all my notes on my ipad. I take two foreign languages, and Im going through firewall training currently. I was happy the bag was big enough for my ipad. I occasionally put my ipad in my backup with my work laptop and it hurts my back. This tote is sturdy, and the handles are very soft.

Odeme What a Pair of 2 Silicone Wine Glasses

The ones I received the box were pink, they have a strong plastic smell when I opened them, I find that the scent goes away some after washing them. I washed mine with some Dawn and hot water, then I poured myself some Barefoot Pink Moscato wine. I’m taking them out next week with me to a 4th of July party that I always go to. I like that the glasses are silicone it makes them very durable and very portable friendly.

Intelligent Nutrients Refining Micro polish

This a plant based micro polish, I like using skincare with plant-based ingredients, I don’t believe in harming helpless animals. I have tried this out a few times, it has jojoba beads in it which help exfoliate the skin, the beads are very gentle on the skin. I also have sensitive skin so I found that this didn’t break me out. If you have sensitive skin this would be a good fit for you.

Invisibobble Original Duo Pack

I had seen these before in another magazine before and wanted to try them, but I could never find them where I live. So I was excited to get these in the box, they work really well especially since I have really thick hair.

Generation Clay Ultra Brightening Face Purple Clay Face Mask-

I only tried this once it burned my skin immediately, I tried it again last night and it still burned my skin I don’t know why exactly. Im going to take a closer look at the ingredients to try to figure out why it burned my skin. This is odd I have tried dozens of skin care products, there have only been a random few that have burned my skin.

Grace and Stella Rose Facial Spray

It’s a nice light spray that gives your face instant hydration.

Whish Exfoliating Foot Mask- I havent used it yet, I don’t have an opinion on yet. I did smell it, and it smelled like coconuts. I like anything that smells tropical especially during the summer.

Ciate Astrolights Jewelled Palette- I seen this palette and the Astrolights Burnt palette, I really liked both of the palettes. When I saw the Jewelled Palette on sale I bought it, I intend to get the burnt palette too. I wore one of the shadows from the palatte today to work, its really pigmented and has great staying power, the shadows lasted more than eight hours on me with little fading.

Butter London Highlighting Gel in Champagne- Its beautiful lightweight highlighter, to me it seems like it has more of golden sheen, I find that the name Champagne doesn’t fit the product. When I think of champagne I think of a golden beige color.

Cuccio Cooling Spot Therapy- This was the mystery item in my box. It says that its supposed to relieve tension and stress after a long day. It’s a lightweight formula with peppermint and green tea. The instructions say you can rub it on the back of your neck and your temples. I use it at night after I get off work, when I lay down on my pranamat, and I find it to be very relaxing.

These are the items I got in my box for Summer 19 what did you get in yours. Happy Friday Im glad it’s the weekend even though the heat index here in Southern Ohio is 95.
