This month featured products chosen by Ashley Hackman, I have no idea who that is, but she has very pretty cursive.
I will say, that out of all my boxes, Starlooks is my cat's favorite. As soon as he sees the string that's holding the box closed, he tries to steal it so he can play with it.
Anyhow, Starbox is the subscription box from Starlooks. It contains 3-4 full-size Starlooks makeup products that you receive every month. It's $15.99, which puts it on the lower end of full-size product boxes. Their makeup is very high quality.
The inside of my box. My little quartz crystal broke, in transit, so I had to throw it out because I didn't want one of my cats thinking it was a cat treat.
Lipstick in Boss, retails for $12.00
I hate lipstick. I especially hate this color. It's like neon red. It's the type of lipstick that I would wear, in college, if I was going to the bar, and wanted to get laid. IT'S SO BRIGHT!
No offense to anyone, who likes red lipstick.
Here's a swatch of it, on my hand. This is going into the... I HATE THIS, SOMEONE ELSE CAN HAVE IT, GIVE AWAY PILE, that keeps getting bigger because I'm too lazy to get my ass to the post-office.
Lip Liner in cherry cedar, also worth $12.00.
I don't even understand the point of lip liner. And even if I did, I'd hate the fact that it's very red, even though it does have a pretty name.
This will also be going into my give-away pile.
Eyeliner in black hole, worth $13.00.
Finally, a product I like.
I love me some black eyeliner. It has great staying quality too because I made this swatch on my hand, and then tried to wash it off, and it wouldn't come off, so now my entire hand looks like it's bruised.
I really do like their eye-liner and eye products though. I think they're awesome quality.
Their lipstick and stuff is great quality too, I'm sure, they're just not my cup of tea.
So the total value: $37.00, which is well over what I paid for the box, but this box just seems lower quality than all the other boxes I've gotten. And with this being a special edition box, I would think their would be special edition colors or products that came with it.
A very meh box.
Hopefully April will be better?
I loved my February box, but I don't think this box is anything special.
But if you're so inclined, check out Starlooks, they are a good company, especially if you like lip makeup, which a lot of people do.
This is why I haven't signed up with them. I like the products you get but not being able to personalize it is a turn off.
ReplyDeleteI wish you could personalize. Like, I like their stuff that isn't nailpolish, but I absolutely love their eye makeup.
