BOXYCHARM ships via FedEx Smart Post (starts out with FedEx and is delivered by USPS) mid-month.

The February 2016 BOXYCHARM theme was “RUSH to Relax” “From Stilettos to Slippers, Get Ready to Work Hard and Rest Easy”. The box included the following items:

~Spongelle You Have My Heart On a String ($15): This is a sponge infused with body wash.  It’s good for 14+ uses and smells amazing. The scent is described as a subtle, yet energetic peony and is just really pretty.  I didn’t open this until just I was ready to use it the first time because I wasn’t sure how well it would store once it is opened.  I would recommend using for 14+ uses in a row – don’t let it sit around for weeks before you use it again.

~Beauty for Real Blush + Glow Stick (Coral Crush / High Beam) (full-size) ($24): This is a 2-in-1 blush and highlighter.  It provides not only amazing shimmery colors, but also has anti-aging benefits.  I found that applying it with my fingers was the easiest way to use it and it can be applied to your eyes, cheeks, lips and body.

~Shray Ms. Amazing Facial Mask ($12): This might be the coolest packaging I have ever received a mask in.  It folds up into an envelope and is ready to mail!  Just add a stamp (maybe two) and you could mail this to your bestie for a special surprise in the mail.  It’s a hydrating mask designed to quench thirsty, ragged and dull skin.  You apply to to clan skin for 10-15 minutes and that’s it.  You don’t even have to wash it off. Perfect for the season!

~OFRA Banana Powder Godet ($12): Sadly I didn’t find this color overly flattering on my skin.  It’s to be used as an all-in-one powder and works to conceal dark circles underneath the eyes, as a setting or finishing powder to even as a matte eyeshadow.  I am going to have to try this again after a little self-tanner.

~Freeze 24*7 Anti-Aging Eye Serum (7mL / 0.23fl.oz) ($52.90): Wow!  This could be one of the smallest, but highest valued samples I have ever received.  It’s a “groundbreaking” serum designed to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles and puffiness.  I haven’t notified much (any) difference yet, but it’s only been two uses.  I am really hoping this works the magic it promises.  Either way though I am thrilled to be able to sample it because it’s not something I would have splurged on before trying because of the price.

~Realtree for Her 10mL Travel Sprayer ($12.99): This is a sweet scent with notes of pomegranate, persimmon and exotic orchids.  As long as subscription boxes include fragrance samples with sprayers (or SUPER cute little bottles) I am happy to try them.  It’s a nice scent and will work nicely for everyday.

~Swatches: From left to right: Beauty for Real Coral Crush, Beauty for Real High Beam and OFRA Banana Powder.
All totaled I came up with a value of $128.89 for the February 2016 BOXYCHARM.  Once again they knocked it out of the park.  This box was packed with fabulous products and the value was incredible!  I have no clue how BOXYCHARM does it, but I am always so impressed with them.
