BoxyCharm is a makeup and beauty subscription box that sends out 4-5 deluxe and full size samples every month. They’re mostly full-size products (4 full size and one deluxe sample) and the boxes have been able to maintain a consistently high value.

I can tell you right now that at least one of these products will take you out of your comfort zone. All items this month were full-size.

Bodyography Professional Cosmetics Essential Brow Trio ($19)

Bodyography Professional Cosmetics Double-Ended Brow Brush ($19)

I think probably a more appropriate retail value for these would be $19 together.

Although I appreciated the 3 shades for brows – this didn’t satisfy me at all in terms of brow friendliness. I expect a brow powder to be somewhat waxy so it sticks. There was serious fall-out with this trio.

Model Co BRONZE Shimmer Bronzing Powder ($22) I love this great shimmer bronzer. If you don’t love it for your face, it’s also perfect for your body! It does take practice to get shimmery bronzer down (or matte for that matter but this was a nice one!).

lip bar purple rain

The Lip Bar Lipstick – Purple Rain ($20) I saw that the Lip Bar had been on Shark Tank – good for them! I love their formula. This definitely qualifies as bold and beautiful! It’s not really the right color for me – a little too wild! But it’s gorgeous wiped off and used as a stain.  Colors may vary but I’m guessing they’ll all be quite bold!

Swatches

lauren b sunset tower

Lauren B. Beauty Nail Polish – Sunset Tower ($18) This is honestly the nail color I’ve been waiting for all season! This is a sandy peach pink and I think it’s totally fabulous and perfect for a great boho outfit.  The color ont he Lauren B website is all wrong, I think my photo is pretty accurate. I love it! (FYI I’ve seen one variation on this – a great pink coral shade)

The value of the May 2015 Boxycharm is $98! Of course some of the items I think are a bit overpriced, but this was a great box for $21, and I have a few bold items plus this season’s perfect polish! I was happy with this box. Even though it was a little wild.
