Wantable, who kindly sent me this box to review, offers three different types of subscription boxes. This box is their makeup box, which includes 4 to 5 full-sized premium makeup products, hand-picked to perfectly match your preferences. They also offer intimates, fitness and accessories boxes, again customized to your preferences.  And unlike the majority of other subscription boxes, Wantable allows you to return the box if you aren’t totally 100% happy. You just go into your account, go to your order history and click “Return Items” and you’ll get a prepaid label and a full refund.

The Box

Wantable ships via USPS and took just under a week to arrive.

First Look

The first look was a good one.  I liked the brands I saw which is always a good way to start.

Preferences

Like I mentioned before, you can totally customize your Wantable box.  You fill out a questionnaire telling them what you Love, Like and Dislike.  You’ll get more of the things you Love, some of the things you Like and none of the things you Dislike.  It also asks about color preferences and that sort of thing.  The only Dislike I have is eyeliner and it’s been working out well for me.

The Information Card

The October 2014 Wantable Makeup box featured the following items to help keep your summer glow going all year long:

~Vincent Longo Lip & Cheek Stain (Magic Potion) ($22.50): I love this!  I have purchased it in the past and think it’s fabulous.  It works on either your lips or your cheeks and every color I have tried is awesome.  And it’s not messy either. I highly recommend this!

~Mirabella Merry Blush Duo ($30): Another fabulous item this month!  The colors of the blushes are stunning and I am thrilled with it.

~Marsk Mineral Eyeshadow (Cockadoodledoo) ($24): This color is a bit much for me, so I will be passing it on to someone who can pull it off better than I can.  It’s really really pretty though.

~Mica Beauty Cosmetics Lipstick (Coral) ($24.95): I don’t know what happened it transit with this one, but my lipstick was smashed and about to fall off the base.  Since it was a review box I didn’t contact them about it, but I have no doubt they would have fixed it for me.

~Chella Dazzling Dark Brown Eyebrow Color Pencil ($18): I have an eyebrow pencil that I don’t use too often so I will be passing this one on to a friend.  I do like the chella highlighter pencil a lot, so if you haven’t tried that you might want to check it out.

My October 2014 Wantable Makeup Box had a value of $119.45 which I think is incredible.  I have gotten amazing boxes this last few months and I so hope it continues!  There was an article done on subscription boxes a month or so ago and it gives a peek at the Wantable offices.  I love that kind of stuff so I thought I would share it.

Do you subscribe to Wantable?  If so, what’d you get in your box (makeup or accessories or intimates) this month? And if you don’t subscribe, what are you waiting for?  Click here to subscribe or learn more.

    Nice box. I actually cancelled my Wantable boxes. I was just getting way too much here that I couldn’t get to using everything so I cancelled and figured I’ll pick back up after the holidays again since I do love these boxes so much. With that you did get a great box this month.

    1. Jennifer

      Do they let you pause or did you just have to cancel?

      1. Jenny

        They do but its easy to cancel and resub online so I just did that so I don’t forget with the cycle dates being when you signed up so they are random dates to remember.

    That is a nice box! Thank you for sharing the article. I love reading behind the scenes stuff. My husband is a consumer who gets anxiety when presented with too many choices. I enjoy the surprise factor and being introduced to items that I may not buy on my own.

    1. Jennifer

      I like the surprise too! I may not always like the item, but I love the surprise.

      And I too love the behind the scenes stuff. I find it so interesting.

    Loved my makeup box this month too! I got the Mirabella blush you did, Vincent Longo lipstick, Tarina Tarantino Eye Shadow, and the Orfa Magic Roulette concealer! Loved their picks for me!

      That does sound like a great box!
