BoxyCharm February 2021 Review
Let's see what I received!

Wander Beauty Getaway Palette - Retail Value $36.00
I loved this little pink palette immediately. The eyeshadows were wonderfully pigmented, smooth, and totally wearable shades. Most of you know that I tend to be pretty low-key when it comes to makeup, and these warmer neutrals are going to flatter anyone and give a gorgeous look that still feels effortless. Also included in the palette was a very radiant highlighter (not quite blinding, but close!) and a beautiful pink blush. The palette itself has a nice weight, a built-in mirror, and a satisfying magnetic sound when closed.

Here is a complete look using the shadows ('Chateau' all over lower lid, 'Yacht' on the inner corners, 'Cabana' along the outer lash line, and the 'After Hours' highlighter under my brow) and the blush and highlighter on my cheeks.

Saturday Skin Yuzu Vitamin C Sleep Mask, 50 mL - Retail Value $29.00
I absolutely love anything that has to do with yuzu in beauty and food! This citrus is packed with so much vitamin C and smells really amazing. And while I liked this product a lot, I found that for my dry skin it wasn't moisturizing enough as a full-blown night mask. It has a kind of odd watery gel texture with little blobs of yellow floating about inside. It is also pretty funny, but you need very little to get a good layer on your face. The whole sensation smells wonderfully summery and is cooling. Inside there are delights like niacinamide, ceramides, retinol, and, of course, vitamin C. Vitamin C is one of those ingredients that literally benefits anyone because it can do so many wonderful things for our skin, like brightening, improving collagen production, boosting antioxidants – and more. So while this might not be an ideal night cream for me, I actually love it for daytime use.

Trèstique Eye Duo: Mascara + Eye Pencil - Retail Value $34.00
This duo was a bit of a snooze for me, but at this point, I have a hard time getting excited about black eyeliner and black mascara unless these items are from a brand I already love to use and while Trèstique is a fine brand, it isn't one that gets me super excited. Both the mascara and black liner formulas are solid here and they do exactly what they should. The mascara has a built-in curler that, frankly, I find to be too narrow, but the formula lengthens and adds volume well. The liner is a softer black but it is long-lasting on my skin and smudges in the way you want it to for a smokey eye.
Here is what the black eyeliner looks like.

Glamierre Pink Luxe Glitter Eye Brush Collection - Listed Value $29.95
FYI: There is a Prop65 warning sticker on this product. In most cases, I tend to not worry about these. Here is why.
I didn't want to love these brushes, but they are pretty darn cute. The handles are filled with a clear liquid and the pink heart sequins move around inside. This is an eye-focused set, containing two fluffier blenders, a sharp chisel, and a flat option. The bristles work well and are synthetic.

Saint Luxe Beauty Secret Admirer & Love Letter Gel Lip Liner Duo - Retail Value $40.00
I didn't love these liners. The tips broke off of both when I went to use them initially, which is not an impressive feature for any pencil product. The colors were fine. One is a dirty red and the other a brown nude. They really need to warm up before you use them because they felt like they dragged on my lips.
Top: 'Love Letter', Bottom: 'Secret Admirer'
Verdict: My BoxyCharm box has an overall value of $139.00 without the brush value, which I could not verify anywhere else online. That is a pretty good value for a $25 box. My two favorite items (the palette and sleep mask) together were worth $65 meaning just those two items alone delivered a good value, and the rest could be seen as just extra bonuses if I chose to frame it that way. While I found the mascara and liner dull, both were nice products that worked well. The brushes were actually SO cute and I love that they are playful and fun. The liners, well, you probably know how I feel about those. All in all, the "hero" items this month made this delivery feel very much worth a $25 cost.
