This month I got…
From MDMflow, Greater Than Mascara. This mascara was okay. It did well for a daily, day-time only mascara look but I didn’t feel it was anything to write home about. This product is full size and the retail price is $35.00.
From gorge, I’ll make you look amazing daily spray. During the days when it’s extra humid and my ends need help staving off frizz I spritz a bit of this on. It’s great for mid-day or before evening when my hair needs that extra anti-frizz “you better behave” kick in the pants. Stuck to the side is a code for $20 off the website (BC20). This product is full size and the retail price is $29.95.
From OFRA Cosmetics, Universal Eyebrow Pencil. I’ve loved every single OFRA product I’ve ever tried… except this one. It wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t for me. I found the formula to be too waxy and I need more coverage in my sparse brows. One product I picked up last year at The Makeup Show is phenomenal in my brows and does not budge – check out the Eyebrow Gel in Khaki if you’re interested in something like that! This product is full size and the retail price is $13.00.
From Vasanti, Professional Blush Brush. I love how soft this is and since it’s a smaller size it worked perfectly for applying the Setting Powder that was included in this box on every area of my face. This product is full size and the retail price is $29.00.
From yourMinerals, Transparent Veil Setting Powder. A loose setting powder is where it’s at when you want a matte finish so I’ll take all I can get. This felt soft and did the job well during this awful humidity. This product is a medium full size and the retail price is $26.00.
At first I wasn’t very excited about this month, but there were definitely products I’ll use up and that worked well for me. The value of the box was over the $21.00 retail at $132.95 and almost all 5 items were full sized. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Boxycharm in August!

This looks like a great box! Is this about what every month is like? I know ipsy is iffy sometimes, and sometimes it’s amazing!

There are always mostly all full sizes. This month was a “medium” full size lol but it was still a lot. The rest were full. There are always products that I can use and I never throw any out. It’s a great value – particularly for the price!
I was pretty happy with this months box!

Looks like a great sub box! Ofra is the only brand I know from this box…

That blush brush looks great! I tried the Ofra eyebrow pencil from a Lip Factory box and wasn’t a fan either.

The setting powder and blush brush are really nice! The other products aren’t too exciting but most are useable. So sad about the eye brow pencil though. Thanks for sharing your box. 🙂
That’s a pretty great selection (well, save for the brow pencil!)

These boxes look as if they are a very good value and everyone seems pretty happy with them.

The mascara gets better with time. I won’t buy it after my time is up with it but I’m glad I got the chance to try it out.

Bummer about the Ofra pencil. But I agree, their eyebrow gel in khaki is the bomb!

Wow, I’ve never heard of this one but the value looks amazing! Hmmm…. my other subscriptions boxes had better step up!

This is the best one for $21!! If you go for any it should be this one and ipsy for the $10. WINS.
OMG, that is an INSANE value!

This is seriously a great value! It sounds like they have a pretty decent rewards program as well, which is something I look for in a sub box.
