This month I got…

From MicaBeauty, Gel Eyeliner. Formula wise this liner is smooth and easy to apply. Black is a good color to go with a variety of looks so it’s a perfect addition to the rest of the box. This product is full size and the retail price is $35.00.

From So Susan, Statement Skin. I’m such a fan of products from So Susan. This is a cream highlighter in a travel-friendly and easy-to-use crayon form. It’s smooth to apply and blends easily. This product is full size and the retail price is $20.00.

From Seta, Eyeliner Brush. A perfect brush to match up the liner! The brush end is a little long for what I like to use (I prefer something shorter and firmer for more control) but if you’re in need of a brush for your new liner, it’ll do! This product is full size and the retail price is $16.00.

From Nios Shield, Leave-In Conditioner. I was just saying I needed a good leave-in conditioner and this one seems to have great reviews. It contains Moroccan Argan Oil so it’s not a product I can put all over my head, but will be nice for my ends which are what need the extra conditioning. This product is full size and the retail price is $26.00.

From Coastal Scents, Revealed 3 Palette. This. This is what made my month. I’ve been dying to try out any one of these Coastal Scents Revealed Palettes and actually bounced around with joy because it was included this month. The product line isn’t expensive, but it’s online ordering so I just never got around to it. The shades are fantastic and are so smooth (below they’re swatched dry, with no primer). So impressed and I definitely need the other 2 now! This product is full size and the retail price is $39.95 (but it always seems to be on sale for $19.95).

In the eye look below I used MAC Utterly Becoming Pro Longwear Paint Pot for a base. All of the shades used are from the Coastal Scents Revealed 3 Palette but I did the look a week ago so I forget =\ I’m pretty sure I used (from the top row) 4th & 5th shades and then also the first shade on the top row to highlight the brow bone. The top liner is the Clinique Pretty Easy Liquid Eyelining Pen in Brown, the bottom liner is Clinique Skinny Stick in Thin Mint and the mascara is Clinique Chubby Lash Fattening Mascara in Two Ton Teal (all will be reviewed this week, all are awesome). I used Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara for the bottom lashes.

This month has hands down been my favorite one yet because I will use every single item and they’re all items I’d have picked to try out for myself, with the CS Revealed 3 being the biggest win of them all. The value of the box was over the $21.00 retail at $136.95 and all 5 items were full sized. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Boxycharm in September!
