Boxwalla December 2016: Let it Glow! Let it Glow! Let it Glow!


Boxwalla has been a subscription service that has been on my radar for quite a while.  I first started paying attention to them when I saw how tastefully curated their boxes always were on Instagram (and more specifically my talented friend Ni Hao New York 's Instagram).  They have a Beauty, Food, Book and Film box available under their services and I must say that ALL of the boxes are just as beautifully curated as the next.  After trying their December Beauty Box (aptly named Let it Glow! Let it Glow! Let it Glow!), I'm so much more keen on trying their other boxes.  Read on to see what products were included in the Beauty Box and how they fared upon further testing!

Honest Beauty Rose Gold Glimmer Set ( Instant Spark , Lips for Days, Shine for Nights )


The holiday season is upon us and with that comes holiday gift sets (limited edition!) and SALES!  You guys, I love the holidays and you can bet that I'm incredibly excited to review this new Limited Edition release from Honest Beauty!  The Rose Gold Glimmer Set has a Luminizer in Instant Spark and two lip glosses in Lips for Days and Shine for Nights.  I love highlighters and lip products (two of my favorite makeup items), so I knew I had to jump on this palette before it was gone! These products didn't disappoint and I decided to test them out so I could give you guys the full low-down before they sell out!

Honest Beauty Reformulated Truly Lush Mascara & Spotlight + Strobe Kit


To be completely honest (pun intended), I've been thinking about unsubscribing to the Honest Beauty Bundles as of late.  I've been getting so much makeup that I didn't see the need for the Bundle anymore even if it was a great deal.  Then, Honest Beauty decided to completely unravel my resolve and release new products, holiday products, as well as haircare!  I've got the low down on their Haircare Line coming very soon, but for today, I'd like to rave about their newly reformulated Truly Lush Mascara and their Spotlight + Strobe Kit!

[CCC] Current Curated Collection: Highlight + Shade


Call me late, but I've only recently started figuring out how to highlight and shade my face.  This isn't to say that I'm particularly good at it, but I've found that highlighting really brings out the face in an emphasized 3-dimensional way and shading really helps to slim down the face(I don't quite use it for a defined contour).  I've collected my favorites in this field to do a comparison and review!  These are quality products that I really believe are a worthwhile investment and I'm also including tips on how to score these products at a lower price below!
