Starlooks- February 2014

Good morning to all my blog readers!

There are a lot of monthly subscription boxes that I feel give the impression of being about make up but then when the box actually arrives it is full of hair care, skin care and a tiny bit of make up. But that is why I love Starlooks! They are a cosmetic company that has a subscription box of just their make up products. FYI...I tried to get Burts Bees to do a monthly box and they turned me down. That is just a side note that has nothing to do with the current subscription box but I thought I would share.

Cream Eyeshadow- This is a pretty lavender color called "Phaser" but I can't seem to find it on the website. Maybe it is a Starlooks box exclusive! Retail Value- $14 (guess based on other products)

Pigment- This pigment can be used as eye shadow or mixed with lip gloss for an added dimension. The possibilities are endless! Retail Value- $17

Lipstick- I think Starlooks lipsticks last a long time and their colors are so pretty. Retail Value- $12

Band- This is a soft headband to keep your hair out of your face as you wash it or just to wear out. This is a bonus item!

Starlooks makes such a great product and I love getting my Starlooks Box each month. The value of this month's box is $43. That is a great deal for the $18 (box plus shipping) price tag!

Starlook- January 2014

It has been a while since I received Starlooks Box and that is just what unemployment will do to your subscription services. But I am proud to say I am employed again so the first thing I did was sign back up for Starlooks. For those of you who have never heard of Starlooks then you are really missing out. 

 

Starlooks is a private make up company that has a monthly subscription box. You receive 3-4 full size products from their brand. Oh and it is almost all make up. I don't recall ever getting anything else but I am not going to rule it out.



 

 I want to share with you what is written on the insert in the box this month because I just love it...

Time to drink a cup of kindness for Auid Lang Syne and start a'new - with a fresh body, a fresh mind, and a fresh face. This month is a very special one, as we all have the opportunity to take a deep look into ourselves, say farewell to the things we want to change, and welcome our new transformations and goals. STARLOOKS encouranges you to add out motto (and this month's STARLOOKS theme) to your list of resolutions this January:

Surprise Yourself!

Don't hit the snooze button. Wake up in time to enjoy a cup o' joe. Take a moment to notice what a beautiful winter day it is outside. Take the time to make yourself look and feel just as gorgeous on the outside as you are on the inside. But before you head out to start your day, try that new, unused eye shadow, lipstick, liner, or piece of make up you never thought you could pull off, and watch the heads turn and the compliments flow...you won't regret it, we promise. XOXO - STARLOOKS

Infinite Lipstick (product on left)- This is such a pretty color and I love that it is a long lasting lipstick. This color is Eons- Matte. Retail Value- $15

Tender Gloss Lipstick- This is a lipstick and lip gloss all in one product. It has the base and lasting ability of lipstick but the shine of lip gloss. This color is Puzzy- Satin. Retail Value- $13

Infinity Lipstick- This is another long lasting lipstick. This color is Endless- Satin. Retail Value- $15

Infinity Eye Liner- I am not a genius at gel eyeliner but now I have more to practice with so I can get good.  This is a beautiful blue color called Orion- Matte. Retail Value- $13

They sent a bonus item that is an eyelash separator or an eye brow comb. You can use it for whatever you need.

The value of this box is $56! That is a great deal for the $15 (plus just under $3 for shipping) price tag. I am so glad to be getting an all make up box again!

Starlooks Box April 2013

I love the Starlooks box because it is all makeup, all full size, and all their own product line. It doesn't get any better than that!

What cute packaging...

 

This month's theme is "neutral". They are everyday neutral colors and products that make a great base to my makeup bag. I love the way that Starlooks will make the products make sense from month to month. They build on each other and I love that. Check it out...

Sensation Mascara Primer- This item is perfect because we just got mascara last month. This primer can be used on its own before bed or layered underneath mascara. It helps to hydrate and smooth lashes while thickening up to 50%. Retail Value- $15

SPF Lip Balm- Right now this product is only available through the monthly box so I am super excited to try it. It is perfect for spring and a great items since we got the bonus lip scrub last month. Retail Value- $5.

Mineralized Powder- I think this is the item I am most excited about this month. This is a mineralized powder in translucent color that will go with every skin color and type. Now that is a big order to fill so I am very excited to try it. It says it will make oil and sweat not be a problem and I have oily skin so I hope it works! Retail Value- $19

Tendergloss Lipstick- This is such a me color for spring! Retail Value- $11

This months box was worth $50! What a great value for just under $18.

Starlooks March 2013

I tried to do without the Starlooks box for a couple of months but I just couldn't! I love that it is all cosmetics, all full size and that it is all their brand. So what came in this months box?

What is great is that there are 2 neutral products and 1 bold item. And there is a still extra goody in this box.

Eyeshadow (neutral item)- This is a great purple color called "disarray". I love trying new colors of eyeshadows so this is perfect to try for a non-black smokey eye! Retail Value- $12

Mascara (neutral item)- I was hoping to get mascara in a different color other than black but i still have many other months of boxes yet to come. This is a black lengthening mascara. Retail Value- $15

Lipstick (bold item)- I have to say that this is not my color at all. I am not one for orangeish colors like this but I have a friend that loves it so I might save it for her. Retail Value- $11

The bonus item is a sugar scrub. This is designed to help exfoliate your lips which is key. Perfect little bonus for the spring. Retail Value- $2

This box was worth $40 and cost just under $18. So worth it!

Starlooks Dec 2012

I have to say that this months Starlooks Box is one of the best values I have received from any box. And of course it is makeup (which is my favorite)! So what is the big item for this month?

This is a 15 shade eyeshadow palliate! I am so excited about this because there are greens, gold/yellows, blues, reds and purples. What a great palliate for the holidays. Perfect to play with the colors for New Year! And since I will be traveling for the holidays this is a great way to travel with a lot of different colors in a simple carry all.

And the value? The box will cost $16.98 each month but this palliate is worth $99! Are you kidding? What an amazing value. If you do not receive Starlooks please do yourself a favor and go sign up. And while you are there make sure to get a subscription for a friend too!

Starlooks Nov 2012

I was very excited to see this Starlooks box arrive in the mail yesterday. Starlooks is a cosmetic brand that has received rave reviews so I am very excited to try their line. The box comes with full size items. So what came in my first Starlook Box?

 

What I thought was interesting is that little quartz crystal that is on the eyeshadow. They send you one each month and hope you collect them to place at the base of your make up brushes. What a cute idea.

 

Tender Gloss Lipstick- I thought this was a great color for fall. Retail Value- $11

Starlooks Eyeshadow- I like that they send me a little card that explained how these colors are meant to be worn together. Retail Value- $24
Eyelash Tool- I have to admit I had to look up what this tool was all about. But it is a 3-in-1 tool for eyelashes. To help guide mascara and separate the lashes for a better look.

Overall I thought this was a great value. I received about $35 worth of product for $15.
