BoxyCharm Beauty Subscription Box Review – June 2014
BoxyCharm is a full-size and deluxe-size makeup and beauty subscription box. When they first started they were featuring drugstore brands like Revlon and L’Oreal, but lately they’ve been using mid-tier and high-end brands. (If you check out my earlier BoxyCharm reviews, you can definitely see the improvement in curation!)
BoxyCharm kindly sent me this box to review.
The Subscription Box: BoxyCharm
The Cost: $21 a month
The Products: 5-6 drugstore beauty items that will include nail care, skin care, makeup, haircare, fragrance and more. (At least 4 of those items will be full-sized).
Ships to: US

Each box comes with a card detailing the products included.
Tarte Cheek Stain in Blushing Bride – Value $30
I’m so excited about this item! I love Tarte, so it’s already a win, and I wanted to try this cheek stain in a different color than the coral shade I received in my POPSUGAR Must Have Summer Special Edition box, so it is perfect! I also like that this cheek stain goes on sheer enough to not let you make mistakes and have clown cheeks!
Revlon Bold Lacquer Mascara – Value $8
When BoxyCharm first started they were sending some drugstore items that were from a few seasons ago, so I’m really happy to see that the only drugstore item in the box is a brand new mascara from Revlon.
Strange Beautiful Nail Lacquer Duo – Value $18
The theme this month is Bridal Beauty, and I think these shades are a perfect addition to the box!
Tarina Tarantino Eye Dream HyperLiner in Cute Robot – Value $15
Tarina Tarantino Eye Dream HyperLight – Value $22
I just tried this Eye Dream Hyper Light this morning, and so far I’m a fan. (I just tried it on the brow bone, but I’m curious to see how it works under eye concealer).
Verdict: This may be my favorite box from BoxyCharm yet! The value is over $90, and I love so many of the products they included. What do you think of the June BoxyCharm box?
What’s color
What lip color did u guys get?
I would love to see your review of the july box, mine came in. I am very pleased. It looks like i have another favoriTe. I love blush beauty mystery box at $25 for nearly $200 worth value and the freebies and fast 2 day shipping and customer service. I am about to receive ipsy soon. I also have Beauty box 5 and birchbox. Considering canceling the tiny sampling boxes with low value though. I know i will probably keep blush beauty mystety box, lip factOry and boxycharm. The best value and I’m sooo thinking of trying wantable for there good value. I prefer full size items but then I’m also hooked on smaller samples and I’m too tempted to try Sample Society and glossy box but the value is lower then these full size pRoduCts. I will say you will surely be happy with boxycharm, blush beauty mystery box and lip factOry. Full sizes! !!!!!!! Great value. Plus wantable looks tempting; nice value there. So far number one fOr value is blush beaUty mystery box followed by boxycharm then lup factory and wantable.
My review is coming soon! 🙂
Does anyone know about the sotrendiy box? because I have been some people have gotten them with full sized too faced products, including the chocolate bar palette, the better than sex mascara and the chocolate soleil bronzer (they got 2 of those 3 products in addition to 3 other awesome products).
I am definitely going to be trading the Spoilers if not the whole Boxycharm box in case anyone is interested. If there’s any makeup in my colors (NOT Barbie Pink Lipstick or brown undertone lipsticks), I may keep those. I am NOT pleased with the Pür Lisse, Nail Polish & Lipstick b/c I either cannot use them or well, Barbie Pink. lol
If you’re interested, please email me. I am very easy to please normally.
Just looked on Boxy Charms FB wall – 3rd spoiler for July box will be anounced around 4pm today – I don’t know about anyone else yet the sunscreen and lipstick is not interesting enough for me to want to subscribe.
The June box was great for people who wear makeup ( I’m just not one of them )
Yes, I saw all 3 Spoilers and am not happy. If the other 2 items are anything like what I have seen I will sell my Boxycharm box to anyone who is interested.
I don’t do Barbie Pink or brown undertone lipsticks, nail polishes and since I’m agoraphobic, I have absolutely no use for sunscreen.
I am so sad with this month’s box. I would even consider a trade because I would have more use for it. If anyone is interested, just post here and we’ll figure something out. I am really sad about this because I don’t have a lot to look forward to.
Just noticed 1st spoiler for BoxyCharm July box – Pur~Lisse Pur-Protect SPF 30 Moisturizer (a $55 Value) — The same stuff that is in the FABFIT Fun Summer Box and Total Beauty Box — I like this product from my total beauty box – yet I’m sick of seeing it in every box — The value I think is high, when I got it in my total beauty box I liked everything about the product yet it was small —
I LOVE Boxycharm. Completely outshines the rest. Absolutely my favorite box.
I need to analyze my boxes and go with some of these that cost a little more, but offer such better value.
Seriously my favorite box this month! Nothing else could hold a candle… I even used the Revlon mascara and liked it(considering the BaB that Ipsy sent me found a new home in the trash can). Every item was a win, I even used the blue eyeliner and wore it to work… It’s dark enough for work, but blue enough to pop! The Tarte is amazing and the Hyperlite is perfect for my skin tone! the nail polishes are adorable, and I didn’t have any color close to the blue, typically I hate nail polishes in my boxes, but these were a hit!! Way to go Boxycharm!!
WOW did all subscribers get the Tarte cheek stain or just a select few?!?
I’m pretty sure everyone got the same box.
Yep, everyone gets the same box and unless they specify on their FB page, there were no color variations (though I guess they didn’t reveal the eyeliner as 1 of their 3 sneak peeks, so that possibly could be different colors). AND, you can still get the June box until they post that they have run out. I snagged one! To the best of my knowledge they still have June boxes available, though you can always email/call them to find out.
Hi ladies! So this past month I had to cancel my glossybox. I had absolutely awful customer service issues with them (had to open a BBB complaint to get them to address it which I have never in my life delt with the BBB before) and im looking for a new amazing box to replace it. So far, I think boxy charm may be the one, but im so terrified of having to deal with poor customer service again. It was such a nightmare with glossybox (THIS STUFF IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN!) and before I have to get in too deep I want to know if anyone has had any major issues?
I recently had a billing issue and the only way to contact Boxycharm is via email. In less than a week the matter was resolved and with great customer service! So far Boxyxharm seems very service based. I too, recently cancelled Glossybox and have been so much happier here.
I love Boxycharm!!,this is my second box. I only started sub boxes last month and I have to say this one is def a keeper. I love that everything is full sized and the quantity and quality are beyond the price. This box is worth every penny!
I haven’t had any issues. One month they accidentally screwed up my shipping label and sent me a tracking code with an address that had the wrong state, but they emailed me a correction within the hour before I even noticed the mistake and I got my box no later than usual. I sent customer service a question about a product once and had a reply within the day.
Oops, this was supposed to be a reply to Katie’s comment above, not blessedmommi’s.
Love Boxycharm! I am glad because after May’s disaster with Glossybox in which I didn’t even get my box, I need another box that is drama free.
I didn’t get my May glossybox either!! Crazy! Thought I was the only one. They sent me a “sorry” email when I asked. Sorry?!?! I want my box! lol. oh well.
I loved this months Boxycharm! I love the Tarte cheek stain.
Boxycharm is now my favorite of all makeup subscriptions. I started out trying 7 differnt ones and am now down to 3.. This is my fav!!
This box is such an amazing value. SO GLAD I picked it up this month! I love everything, absolutely everything in this box.
