Wantable: Makeup Edition July 2015

What's in
the box?



Wantable has three regular subscriptions and a fashion workout edit box.  The three that you can choose from each month or have sent to you every month are Makeup, Accessories, and Intimate.  I usually pick either an Accessories or Makeup one; my favorite boxes are the Makeup edition. 


    Wantable is different though - you can skip boxes each month or just have one or two of the selections sent to you.  Now you can also return items you do not like for a partial refund of your box monthly fee, which is $40.  If you keep the whole box, you earn a $4 off coupon on your next Wantable box.

 They always make you feel special at Wantable:

 Each of your boxes will come with a break down of the items - it has retail price and what your refund price would be on it.


Wantable is also nice because you make a Love, Like, and Dislike of products - you will never get anything from your dislike section and always something from your Love section.  I currently have brows, eyeliner, lash products, highlighter, bronzer, and nail products in my Dislike section but I could change it up for next month if I chose.  I have warm, eye shadow and lip color in my Love section.  But I do not think I have every been given a full eye shadow palette - it is usually just one color.  In my Like section, I have complexion products, cool, blush and tools. 
 

Model Co BB Cream -  ($22) You also put in all your info like skin tone, hair and eye color, and complexion needs so they can always match the makeup to you.  I love getting BB cream because I wear it every day and prefer it to heavy foundations.  This is a win for me.


Doucce Lush Lip Gloss Crimson Light  -  ($22) This is a beautiful tube of lip gloss and between it and my BB cream, I have the value of my box.  I love lip glosses - and this seems so elegant and classy. 


Seta Foundation Brush -   ($20)  I could not find this exact brush online, but their other prices have been right on the money.  I will probably use this for highlighter actually since I prefer the Beauty Blender for my BB creams.


OFRA Lipstick 09 -  ($13.15)  This brand has been very popular in my boxes the last few months.  I have received some lip and eye liner from Little Lace Box as well.  I love this shade and it is one I would have picked out for myself.


Another great hit of a box for me!  My stylist did a great job picking out my items and I love the variety - some people would not like getting a lipstick and a lip gloss, but I often pair them.  The value of my box is $75+ and I paid $36 since I got a box a few months ago.  Wantable never slacks off and the boxes are usually just what I wanted.

Glossybox May 2015

What's in
the box?


I join Glossybox off and on as spoilers for fun stuff come out.  I did not get it cancelled in time so I also got May's box.  Glossybox is $21 a month and has high-end beauty products in small and full size.  



Doucce Mineral Matt Lipstick in Cherry Blossom -  ($20)  The case on this is so super shiny.  I do like the packaging and the color I received was a nice mauve color, not too bright or loud.  That is one nice difference between some of the other boxes and Glossybox - not too many weird shades here.    

 

Teeez Trend Cosmetics Head Over Heels Nail Lacquer Base Coat -  ($14)  Teeez is one of my favorite brands from overseas.  This is an item I use when I do paint my nails but hate to buy so it was nice to get in this box.


Clearista Retexturizing Gel - (full size $80)  It was nice to try this as I would never buy it full size.   It is an exfoliating gel that is paraben free. 


Sebastian Professional Stylbrid 9 -  (full size $20) This is a multi-benefit hair spray without parabens or alcohol.  I am very happy to try this and you can use on wet or dry hair.
 

Glamglow Powermud Dualcleanse Treatment -  (full size $69)  This is another product I would never buy in the full size.   There is an offer too for 30% Glamglow products with the code GLOSSYBOX30.  

Tidbit: Glamglow was originally created for behind the scenes use for actors seeking an instant camera ready look that would last for days.


 This box seemed to be thrown together with odds and ends they had in the warehouse.  We received two exfoliating face scrubs too which I have never seen them do before.  The rest of the box's variety was there but the box did not wow me.
