There it all is! Three layers in!
FACE Stockholm- Nail Polish #28: I've gotten a lot of FACE products through Wantable and so far I've liked 'em all! This super light pink is something I do wear on occasion- especially when I want painted nails but can't get away with crazy colors. It's a 3-Free formula btw. Price: $12
Japonesque- Flat Eyeliner Brush: I LOVE getting tools from Wantable! I feel like I can never add too many brushes to my brush collection and eyeliner brushes are my fav. I go though them like crazy- I don't throw them away- I just don't clean my eyeliner brushes every day so I have a bunch to make it through the week before I wash 'em all. Might be excessive but I guess I'm lazy. I try to wash them all once a week btw! Price: $11
Michael Marcus- Blush in Coral Reef: I love this color of blush. I've gotten some meh blushes before (even from Wantable) but this color is great. I like pressed powder blushes the most (cream blushes the least) and this color is really nice on. Price: $26
Michael Marcus- Waterproof Mascara in Black: I love a good waterproof mascara and getting this is August was kismet since it was time to chuck a lot of my mascaras (90 days open and you gotta get rid of them- trust me, it's good for your health)! I used to prefer waterproof mascara, for the sole reason of not having running mascara, but lately all of them were well... crap. This one works well- it's no Benefit They're Real, but it's solid. Price: $24
Manna Kadar- Glossware in Burlesque: Another Wantable fav is the brand Manna Kadar and this gloss? Love it. It's become one of my new favorite lip glosses! It has a beautiful color- obviously the color in the pic but on it's a little warmer. It is glossy without being sticky and it smells good too! I love it. It's gorgeous. Price: $19
Echo Vie- All Natural Lip Balm: The extra this month from Wantable is a lip balm sample- I love that Wantable sends these samples each month and dismisses them as nothing. Other boxes ONLY have samples while Wantable just throws them in as extras. Anyway, I kind of forgot about this sample and only tried it initially- nothing too exciting but this is all natural which is nice. Price: ~$2.50
Verdict: First off, I CANNOT find a pic of the products together not in packaging. Guess I missed that... Oh well. Close enough. This Wantable box was valued at $94.50 so well over the $36 pricetag (I subscribe so it's $4 cheaper). Geez- almost $100 in products- that blows me away each time! August's box boasted a new fav for me in the gloss and I'm all about my new travel brush (I use it while at home too, of course). The blush is a nice addition to my collection and so is the mascara. The balm and nail polish will be used eventually too. All in all a pretty great box! Because of a glitch in my quizzes (they got deleted when I took my Intimates one) I had to re-do my makeup quiz from the start so I'm hoping that'll help me get a super awesome box since I hadn't re-updated mine recently anyway. Looking forward to my September Wantable box!
