Boxy Charm January 2014

Hello Internet Friends.  You all know I love mail.  I love presents and surprises and most of all I love stuff.  I found out about a new to me beauty subscription service.  Boxy Charm.  Boxy Charm promises that each box will have $50.00 or more of retail value.  Now I have watched the unboxings for many months and while many people are not into the boxes I am as they send full size products mainly Drug Store items, limited editions, special collections etc perhaps discontinued items.  Still usable and good.  If you are like me and don't have access to drug stores and discount stores this is a good box to get.  I like it because I can grow my collection of makeup quickly and with products that my small town Walmart never even got.  Boxycharm is $21.00 a month and that includes shipping.  Lets get into it!

1.  Spa Rituals Vegan Nail Laquer in the shade Quiet Storm.  A lovely light lavender color.  It is fairly opaque.  The downside for some is that it smells like spray paint.  It took me a few sniffs to place the scent.  Spray paint or those Black markers in the steel barrels that you shake and it has the bead in it.  Yep it is an interesting scent.  Keep away from anyone you know that overly enjoys that sort of thing!  However it is a nice polish that lasts well.  Retail $12.00  Check out their website and enjoy pages of color they have available  Spa Rituals Polish

2.  Next up in our box of beauty is the Be A Bombshell eye shadow in the color Birthday Suit.  A lovely nude shade and yes it is skintone, It is the perfect brow highlight, or great to calm down your exuberance in color experimentation.  Retail $14.00  Check out the Be A Bombshell website.  I really enjoy their products as I recieve them frequently in my Ipsy bags.  Be A Bombshell Click here to explode your makeup collection

3.  Onto Lippies... A full size OFRA Liquid Lipstick in the shade Angeles.  It is a nude color with rosey undertones (spread it around on your hand and you will see it.)  The formula is really nice.  Good staying power.  The oh god no for me which many of you may like is it smells like a French Vanilla Cappuccino and I despise the smell of coffee.  It doesn't last too long so I can tolerate it because I enjoy placing it in the middle of my lips to create a dimensional effect.  Will also be fantabulous to mute a bright shade.  Hang onto your wallets...  Retail $19.90.  This color is on sale for $14.92.  It claims to stay put for 5 hours Without Eating or Drinking and I am guessing smoking is covered in that as well.  So if perhaps you have Jury duty or something where you will not be drinking or smoking for 5 hours this will be for you!  Check out the OFRA website to see what they are about and to explore their other shades and products.  This is a winner.  OFRA Click me for long lasting Lippies.

4.  Are you getting excited yet?  I know I was when I pulled the Model Co. Gel Eyeliner in Black.  Great lasting power.  Liner glides across lid with wonderful black precision.  Retail $22.00.  22 dollars for an eyeliner no f'ing way... Yep no lie.  Click the link to check it out.  Model Co expensive makeup

5.  Finally... Reveillie Warm Vanilla Body Polish.  Wow.  I love Body Scrubs.  This felt like rubbing brown sugar all over your body and if you are itchy it is nice.  After rinsing it off it left my skin very soft.  Smells like brown sugar and vanilla.  This product is hand crafted and retails for $16.75  Click to check it out.  Body Scrub Love
