Hey Beauty and Subscription Box Lovers! These are the subscription box products I received and tested this week. These are my honest opinions and suggestions. I have linked where you can buy the products if you so choose. I hope you learn more about the products subscription boxes offer. I really enjoy testing these products. Let me know what you think in the comments below!
PRODUCT TESTING:
Berrisom My Lip Tink Pack ($15)
I received this product in my March 2016 PinkSeoul Box. This product is so cool yet so weird at the same time. You apply it to the lips and let it sit until it is ready to peel off. After you peel it off, your lips are left stained. It feels so weird on the lips and looks so messy. However, it is very easy to peel off and you are left with a gorgeous stain. The stain lasted a decent amount of time on the lips. It is a bit time-consuming so it is not a good lip product for on the go. I really enjoyed using this product. It doesn’t taste the best but it isn’t horrible. I love the color of the stain and that it lasts a long time. I don’t have to worry about reapplying. I would definitely be interested in buying more shades.

Repurchase:
Aritaum Fresh Powder Essence Pouch Sleeping Pack ($4.99)
I received this product in my May 2016 3B Box. This is a thick gel substance. It feels almost like a peel off mask, but it sinks into the skin. It really does leave your skin glowing in the morning. It didn’t irritate my skin or cause me to break out. It actually feels nice on the skin and didn’t leave me overly oily. I really enjoyed using this pack and would consider repurchasing.

Pixi Beauty Crayon Combo Eye Pencil in Wide Awake ($16)
I received this product in my May 2016 Aspyn Ovard VIA Box. I really like using this pencil to highlight my brows. It works nicely and really helps me carve out my brows. It blends decently well. I really like the color and it works well with my pale skin. I don’t know if I would repurchase, but I will continue using this pencil.

Altchek MD 5Minute Clay Renewal Mask ($14)
I received this product (sample) in my June 2016 Tombox. This was a pretty nice mask. It doesn’t dry which is different. I love that it only takes 5 minutes. It is a great mask for when you don’t have much time. It didn’t irritate my skin and I enjoyed the smell. I love the smell of clay masks. My skin was left smooth and felt very clean. Overall, I enjoyed using this mask. I don’t think I will repurchase because I have so many masks.

Repurchase:
Heimish All Clean Balm ($19)
I received this product (sample) in my June 2016 Pink Seoul Box. This cleansing balm is very nice. It works like most cleansing balms. You apply to dry skin and it turns into an oil that breaks down your makeup. It did a great job at removing my makeup and it didn’t irritate my skin. It had a nice scent and I have nothing bad to say about it. I would definitely consider purchasing it in the future.

Repurchase:
Doucce Boombastic Lash Volumizer Mascara ($24)
I received this product (sample) in my June 2016 Ipsy Bag. I really enjoyed this mascara and I love the wand. It isn’t the best mascara ever, but it is really nice. It looks great with just one coat (gives a beautiful natural lash effect). It does tend to clump with more coats. However, I don’t mind it because it doesn’t look too bad. It doesn’t flake off and it lasts all day. I was surprised how much I enjoyed this mascara. It doesn’t irritate my eyes either. I don’t know if I will repurchase, but I do like it.

Repurchase:
Saint Peau Eco-Friendly Snail Essence ($18)
I received this product in my June 2016 Mishibox. I enjoyed using this essence. It feels almost like water on the skin. It sinks in lightening fast and really hydrates the skin. I love how refreshing it felt on my skin. You don’t need much at all so this bottle will last a very long time! I don’t know if I would repurchase because I have so many face lotions. However, I did enjoy it.

Repurchase:
LA Splash Lip Lacquer High Pigment Collection in Sugar Rush ($18)
I received this product in my June 2016 Glossybox. I really loved this lip lacquer at first. It was very easy to apply and I actually really liked the shade. It is crazy pigmented and lasts forever on the lips. It fades nicely and doesn’t bleed. However, it made my lips so chapped and they have been chapped for a few days. It was strange because the formula wasn’t drying and felt creamy on the lips. I am pretty sure this was the culprit. I will try it again once my lips have healed to see if it caused them to chap again. I won’t be purchasing any more of these unless I know for sure they don’t cause my lips to chap.

Repurchase:
Bareminerals bareSkin Bronzer ($28)
I received this product (sample) in my June 2016 Sephora Play Box. I love this bronzer. The swatch looks so dark, but it blends so easily. I love wearing it under my foundation to add a sun-kissed glow. It seriously blends like a dream and is so easy to use. I love the effect it gives on the skin and how natural it looks. I am a HUGE fan of this product and will definitely need to pick up the FULL SIZE. This is the perfect summer beauty product.

Repurchase:
Peony Cosmetics Highlighter in Pink Glow ($22)
I received this product in my June 2016 Lip Monthly Bag. This highlighter crayon is a gorgeous pink tint. It is very subtle on the skin. However, I love using it as a base for my powder highlight. It works amazing and takes my highlighter to a whole new level. My highlight also lasts all day! The combination is just so beautiful and I have been wearing it all week. I will definitely continue to use this product. It is a bit pricey for what it is so I don’t think I will repurchase. However, I do love it!

Repurchase:
OFRA Oil Control Pressed Powder ($39.95)
I received this product in my June 2016 Boxycharm Box. This was an okay powder. It is very finely milled and has no scent. I don’t have oily skin so I am not the best tester for this powder. It felt nice on the skin, but I didn’t notice much difference. I won’t repurchase because I just don’t need or use this product much at all.
