Beauty Box That Hit It Out of the Park: September BoxyCharm

One of my favorite packages to get each month is my BoxyCharm.  My September BoxyCharm featured five new beauty items.  If you’re not familiar with BoxyCharm, it is a monthly beauty subscription box that includes at least 5 full sized, beauty or skincare items valued at at least $100.  The box costs $21/month and the September box was SO good!

Is BoxyCharm Worth the Hype? Plus New Product Thoughts | What Is BoxyCharm?

BoxyCharm is a monthly beauty subscription box that includes 4-5 full size beauty items valued to be at least $100.  The monthly box costs $21, although signing up for 3-12 month subscription will drop the cost a bit.  Beauty subscription boxes definitely are not a new concept but this is the first one I’ve ever received.  In the past, I’ve always worried that I wouldn’t love everything in a beauty box and that it would end up being cheaper to just directly purchase beauty products that I was interested in.

BoxyCharm was a subscription box I knew about through beauty YouTubers that I follow so I was pretty excited to receive my first box.
