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.
Wantable ships via USPS and took about a week to arrive this month. Wantable ships based on your original order date, so if you first purchased your Wantable subscription on the 10th, your boxes will always ship around that date.
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.
To be honest I thought my box looked a little empty. I think it was just because there wasn’t a BIG item in there to take up more space.
The information “card” was a little different than normal this month. Instead of it all being on one page in super small font, the paper was folded like a little book and the information was separated into 4 separate sections. Much easier to read! Here is what was included:
~OFRA Absolute Cover Face Primer ($35): I have been tuned in to the magic that is primer and I am not going back! This under foundation (or BB cream) is awesome and really does help it “stay” longer and look even more fabulous.
~Surratt Beauty Lip Lustre (Teinte) ($32): Okay, so I had to do a little googling about this one. It turns out this is meant to be worn under other lip gloss colors to make them lighter. That makes much more sense than white lip gloss!
~Tarina Tarantino Sparklicity Pure Bronze ($17): Love this! It can be used on the eyes, cheeks, lips and face. The color is incredible and I love this brand. I will probably mainly use it on my eyes, but I like the option of being able to use it elsewhere too.
~(PLA) Beauty Cheeky Blush Matte Bright ($22): This is probably the only item I am not overly excited about. Don’t get my wrong, the color is gorgeous, but I am on blush overload so I will pass this one on to a friend to enjoy.
All totaled I came up with a value of $106 for the December 2014 Wantable box. I will tell you what, I never would have guessed that it was a $100+ box when I opened it up! I ended up liking this box much better than I thought I would and I am very pleased with it!
