Hi everyone!
My boyfriends birthday was yesterday, so we all went to a newer restaurant. This place smelt like mildew and it was hotter inside than outside. BUT, they had fantastic sweet tea.
This month is not just my persons birth month, but it is BoxyCharms birth month!
For their birth month celebration they included an extra product in the box, which is always exciting.
Pur Sculptor palette $30
One product down and it always has covered the cost of the box, plus some. I love palettes that have all, in this case most, of the face powders I need. So much easier for travel. Especially when they have a nice mirror like this one does.
I think the shades may be too dark for my slime time right now. But, I will have to try them to see. The highlighters and bronzers are all very pigmented and buttery. I think they would make great shadows as well.
Cover FX Blurring Primer $38
I have really been wanting to try more products from Cover FX. I have also wanted to purchase a nicer primer. I am very glad that I got this in my BoxyCharm, saved me a bit of money!
Pretty Vulgar The Ink Gel Liner “Black List” $24
The packaging for of this gel liner is magnificent. However, I rarely use liners in this format. I just haven’t gotten the hang of it.
The liner itself is extremely smooth and pigmented. I may actually be able to work with this. If not it is going to be a decoration piece because of the packaging.
Aesthetica 3 Piece Eye Trio $45
I have never heard of this brand before. I am always intrigued when I am introduced to new brands, I will have to learn a bit more about them. These brush seem to be of good quality. The angled brush will make a great eyebrow brush I think. I will have to try the liner brush with my new gel liner.
Aesthetica P12 Face Brush $27
This brush seems nicely made as well. The hairs are very soft and the rest of the brush feels sturdy. I think this brush will be nice for blush or bronzer. I love getting brushes.
Han Skin Care Lip Gloss “Raspberry Chardonnay ” $15
I am not a huge lip gloss person. This one is a pretty color though and looks opaque. If I don’t get use out of it rather soon I may pass it on to a friend who likes glosses more than I do. I just don’t like that they are messy because they don’t dry down. Glosses always end up on my teeth.
I wish this was a liquid lip or a lip pencil, the shade is one that I enjoy.
That is it for my box! For $21 I got a box valued at $179 π―π―π―π―. I not hate any of the products. I may not get use out of the Gloss, and I need to learn how to learn the liner, but over all I am ecstatic with what I received.
What was in your Boxy Charm? What products would you like to see reviewed?

A good trick for lip gloss or lipstick that gets on your teeth is that
after you apply it, lightly close your lips on a kleenex and put a finger in your mouth
while making an O shape with your lips. It will remove the excess lipstick/gloss
that would normally make its way onto teeth. I would def wash your hands before
and after obvy. π

Got my box the other day and I’m also new to using gel eyeliner, but this liner works awesome. I used the very thin shaped Aesthetica brush in the trio set and it worked wonderfully with the liner!! ππ
