Tonic Studios Card kit #24!
I absolutely love these monthly card kits!! They come with everything you need to make beautiful cards each month!! While sadly I don't have any pictures of this particular kit, I have kit #25 on the way and I promise to have pictures available for that review!!
This card kit comes with cardstock in beautiful colors/designs (metallic, mirror, glitter, normal etc) it also has beautiful stamps in the kit, aswell as a multitude of dies to help you add beautiful accents on any cards you make, this card kit had a die set that helped you make a beautiful lantern, and it had shaker card elements, like sequins and little glitter hearts! It also had little windows that you fill with the sequins/hearts etc and put into the sides of the lantern to give it that shaker element! (I'll make 1 and add a couple photos over the next couple days!)
These kits ship out of the US for residents of the US, & for all international orders, those are done from their UK site. If you have any interest in paper crafts/card making at all, I HIGHLY recommend these monthly card kits!!
Cost is £39.99
(*I'm so sorry this particular review does not do this kit any justice at all! I promise when I receive the next card kit in the next week or so, I'll do a much much better review with pictures!!*)

August 2019 Boxycharm
So this was the first time I had got a BoxyCharm box, and I was absolutely floored by the amazing FULL SIZED products I received!!
I'll start with the Tarte Big Ego Mascara! Now, I'm not normally one that will reach for a mascara when doing makeup...that is, until I got this Mascara!! It...is...amazing!!
It retails on the Tarte website for $30 (cad) and it's worth every single penny!!
This mascara doesn't make your lashes flake and doesn't make them clump together, it makes your lashes look so full and long and bold! It's long lasting and from what I have experienced waterproof!
Next is the Becca hydr-mis set & refresh powder. This stuff feels almost wet when you put it on at first, but it's a powder, and it's not wet, but it's such a refreshing, cool and light feel on your face. I find it sets my makeup great! More so on my forehead & cheeks than undereye, but everyone is different so can't have everything lol. What I don't like about this product, is every time I open it, if I don't take my time and open it slow and careful, it has a cloud of powder that comes out. And the fall out from it is fairly big. BUT I can live with it lol
MSRP- $39 (cad)

Next is the Wander Glow Ahead Illuminating oil. I fell in love with this stuff instantly!! It has a spill proof tip so if you set it down without the lid it's not going to go all over the place, it's super hydrating and leaves your skin feeling and looking amazing!
A little goes a long way with this oil!! It helps to hydrate and restore the skins moisture while giving you a beautiful glow!!
MSRP- $42(cad)
Ace Beaute Glimmer Shadow Duo,
MSRP-$25/pair (cad)
these are supposed to be creamy, but I don't find mine overly creamy, but they're not like a powder either. These are a high pigment shadows, with little to no fallout, they also won't crease or fade either!
Hollywood N Vine Velvety Touch Smooth Khol Eyeliner is up next. When I say this liner is so easy and smooth to apply, girl ya best believe! This liner goes on so smooth, it's so bold and makes lining your eyes so easy!!
MSRP- $7(cad)
It's a nice long liner that will definitely last a while! It's also waterproof!
Butter London Natural Goddess Eyeshadow Palette
MSRP:$32
This palette has 6 highly pigmented, gorgeous, long lasting shades! They are stunning! And you can create SO many incredible looks with these 6 shades!! They have little fallout and are so easy to apply, there's no messing around with these shades!! No need to keep going back into the pan for more color at all with this Palette!!
And last but certainly not least,
The Luxie gaea 3 piece Brush Set
MRSP-$30
This eco-friendly brush trio is fantastic!! The bristles are so soft and feel so amazing on the skin, they make applying shadow/foundation a breeze!! There's the Luxie 510-foundation brush, the Luxie 250-large eye blending brush and the Luxie 246-precision crease brush, & I'm in love!! These are the first brushes I've tried from Luxie and I am definitely wanting more!!
At the time I'm writing this review, BoxyCharm boxes are $21/month (USD) for the base box, but as of November 2019 they will go up to $25/month (USD) you receive 4-5 full sized items and the value of the box is over $150 & you can customize 1 product each month
$35/month for BoxyCharm Premium (Starting in Nov 2019) and has a value of $175+ and you get 6-7 full sized items, free US shipping ($3 internationally) and you get to customize 1 product!
And Boxyluxe is an additional $28.99 (USD) on top of the base box Cost, it only comes out once every 3 months and their is a wait list! They have a value of over $275 inside!!
In order to get the Boxyluxe you have to be an active subscriber of their monthly base box, and get your name on that wait list!!
I'm waiting patiently for my October BoxyCharm box to come!! Any day now hopefully!
So it's been a while...but!!
Hey! So I know it's been a while since I posted, BUT!! I got 3 sub boxes to review and have more on the way!! The 3 I have already received are BoxyCharm August 2019 box, Tonic Studios September card kit #24, and 3 meals from GoodFood! ANF boy oh boy am I ever IMPRESSED!! So I'll start with the GoodFood box first!
I found a huge box on my front step, and it was packed so awesome! There was 2 really big ice packs in it to keep everything nice and cold/fresh!

In the box as I said was 2 big ice packs, and SO much fresh food I almost couldn't believe it!!
The box came with every last little thing you could possibly need, from the meat and veggies, to the spices and sauce!!
It had 3 pages that had complete directions on how to prepare and cook each meal in the box, and holy, WOW!! They were all meals I never in a million years would have known how to make first off, and meals I wouldn't even think to make on any given night! So this box definitely brings new and delicious meals/recipes to your kitchen and provides everything you need to make it except the pots pans and oven!!
I HIGHLY recommend this box!! They not only offer a supper menus, but they also have a breakfast/smoothie menus too!!
I did not purchase these 3 meals, I received them free after signing up for a free trial! The website seems to offer really amazing deals fairly often, and special prices for first time subscribers!
*I will do sepetate pages for each sub box*
