Starlook's Customized Starbox August 2015

 

Unboxing and Review! 

 

 I am so happy to be on my second month of reviewing Starlook's Customized Box! I was honestly, c1ompletely in love with their July 2015 Customized Box and am pretty happy with this one as well! Being that I completely forgot the items I chose, this was an AWESOME surprise!

 

I'm really started to dig this subscription A LOT!

 

Let's Have A Look!:

 

 

 

The Haul!:

1. Slanted Liner Brush (824):

Full Sized! Listed at $18.00

Oooooh a full sized brush?? Yes please! I love liner brushes and was in desperate need a new one. Love!

 

 

 

2. Eyeshadow in Gold Coast:

1.6 g, listed at $13.00

 

At first glance, I was worried that this shadow maybe too dark for me. But it swatched so nicely and it gorgeous. Another win!

 

 

 

3. Long Wear Eye Pencil in Brun:

Size not available, listed at $10.25

 

As I am apparently in the process of building my eyeliner arsenal in case of a zombie apocalypse, I couldn't resist picking this liner. Although I normally do not wear brown liner, I think it will be very complimentary to the gold shadow. Look at me- curating my own box all crazy! I'm already a huge fan of Starlook's liners. So, this is kind of a shoe in!

 

 

 

4. Gift Cards:

 

I must have missed the step to pick out my gift cards this month because I don't remember choosing these. I also this they accidentally gave me a double by accident!

 

1. Torrain for $15.00

2. We Positive People for $17.00 

3. (2) The Laboratory (unknown amounts)

 

 

 

 

The Final Verdict!

Box Value: Not counting the gift cards, the make up in this box is $41.25.

 

 Box Score: 10/10

Final Thoughts: Honestly, Starlooks has been hitting it out of the park for me the past couple months with the new Customized Box and Looks Book. The choices are awesome, I get what I want, and I am really digging everything. Love it all!

Starlook's Starbox February 2015: Dynamic

Unboxing and Review

Squeeeeeeeeeeeee. I am IN LOVE with my Starbox this month!

Let's hop right in!

The Menu:

The Haul!:

1. Tender Gloss in Cherub:

Listed at $16.00

I was SO worried about this gloss. It looked so incredibly similar to my January 2015 Starbox Gisele lipstick - which was a BEAUTIFUL color. But, looked terrible on me. It would have been such a let down to get such beautiful lip colors that I was dying to try 2 months in a row that I couldn't wear.

Welp, I was in luck! This gloss is FANTASTIC. I love it. It looks wonderful on me. And, my fiance loves it too. He did mention that it was a bit darker than most of my lip colors but it still looked great on me. 

I am SO happy this turn out well. I'm just disappointed that I couldn't get a very good swatch for my blog here because of the crap lighting in my apartment. 

2. Gem Eye Pencil in Myth:

Listed at $16.00

This was a literal Holy Shit moment for me. Other than my Pixi Black Gel liner from December Target Beauty Box for Her, I have never fallen in love with an eyeliner so hard and so fast. This liner is insane and I'm totally sold. It is a super soft, ultra pigmented smoky gray liner with silver sparkle. PERFECT for a smoky eye look. I'm swooning over this liner. It is seriously one of my favorite items I have EVER received in a beauty box. My pictures seriously don't do this liner justice and I finally know what I'm cashing in my Starlooks Rewards for!! I just can't pick which liners I want!

3. Duet Fan Brush:

Listed at $20.00

Icing on the cake. I LOVE fan brushes. I feel so bourgeois using them. Oh so fancy. This one is super soft and light. And the handle is super long for easy application. 

Bonus Item:

 Although I really like the new bonus items that Starlook's Starbox has been including. I was in LOVE with the make up cleaner last month. I think it's a nice little extra. However, I received a $40 refund coupon for datenitebox.com. Which I would love to use- if the basic plan wasn't $150 a month. I live in Manhattan. If my fiance and I can't figure out a date night for under $150 a month- I'm doing the East Village wrong. But, it was a cute extra for Valentines Day.

The Final Verdict!

Box Value: Approx $52.00

 Box Score: 10/10

Final Thoughts: Honestly, I am so hardcore in love with everything I received in my Starbox this month- I'm over the moon. They've been ON BALL the past few months. Starbox is in heavy competition with Glossybox for my favorite sub right now. I am incredibly happy right now and have some eyeliner I need to stock up on...

UGH! I am sorry to be so late on this!

I got it quite a while ago and even did my video a while ago and my poor Starbox has been in such purgatory! Poor thing!

Starlook's Starbox January 2015: Mirrors 

Unboxing and Review!

To start off, I really found the Starlook's Mirror's spoilers to be really elusive in regards to what we were getting in the box. I was a little bit worried because I did get my tracking so late in the game and I feel like they didn't have their stuff together this month. That could totally be my own perception though because I thought this was a really great box even though I am still unsure about the theme.

Upon Opening:

Our Menu:

The Haul!:

1. Lipstick in Gisele:

Listed at $14.00

Even though I feel like I have become slightly less Totally Oblivious when it comes to lipstick, I am SO disappointed right now. Not because I could have gotten the Marsala lipstick (which I actually would have hated). But, this lipstick is SUCH a pretty color and I just *know* it is not going to look good on me. I keep returning to it hoping that it's a little more brown than red. And I just know, with the high quality that Starlook's products are- that this is going to be pigmented as hell and I won't stand a chance of it going on sheer. I haven't swatched it because I'm not sure if I am going to try to sell or trade it. I am in such a purgatory over it. I'll probably eventually break down and try it and be completely upset. I WISH I could wear this lipstick. But, at the same time, I signed up for my Starbox to be MORE experimental. I'M SO TORN!!

2. Kohl Eyeliner in Chestnut:

Listed at $16.00

Some day I realized I would have to grow up and not wear electric purple, metallic silver, and jet black liners every day. That day, of course, was when I eventually stumble across a more mature or natural looking liner. Don't think I haven't try to avoid it. I have a bit of a Peter Pan complex when it comes to my make up. Apparently the day has come. I own a brown, "neutral" eye liner. And, I feel like I'm obligated to use it. 

That being said, I love the contrast concept of a matte brown against bright gold shadows. Well played Starbox, you're getting me to try a mature liner while allowing me to still go nuts with my immature bright metallic gold shadows I keep getting in my Ipsy bags.

I'm taking the plunge...

3. Blending/Contour or Lip Brush:

Listed at $22.00

Oh please lip brush. This little guy is totally going to be used with some water or Paula Dorf Transformer with my UD Electric Palette to make some more crazy eyeliners. I still love getting these intricate brushes- they're fun to play with!

4. Malibu SoapWorks All Natural Brush Cleaner:

Listed on Etsy for $10.00

Even though this was a bonus item. HOLY CRAP. This was my favorite thing in the box! I have been on a search for a good brush cleaner. And, although I haven't tried this yet- I am excited to! I was just really surprised how dense it was and I hope it lasts a while.

The Final Verdict!

Box Value: Approx $62.00

 Box Score: 9/10

Final Thoughts: As usual, I REALLY liked this box. I was especially excited about the bonus brush cleaner- which I hope I fall in love with. I really feel like Starbox pushes my makeup boundaries in the best ways and I am finally coming to grips with this. Time to experiment!
