Wantable Cyber Monday!

Cyber Monday at Wantable! Everyone knows I love, love, love my boxes from Wantable. I've received the Makeup Box as well as the Intimates Box. They also offer an Accessorries Box and a three different Holiday Boxes! The best part of Wantable is the level of customization that is offered for any of their boxes. Beyond that, if you are not happy with your box you can return it for a full refund. I sent one box back because it just wasn't me, and it was super easy.

Here is what I received in this months Intimates Box:
Muk Luks Tights $8
Happy Socks $12
Bella T-Shirt $18
A close-up of the tshirt because I really love the color and I don't think you can really see it in the first pic. It's kinda pink, kinda purple. 
Bella Sweatshirt $36

The total value of this box is $74. I'm very happy with what I received. Definitely take advantage of this Cyber Monday deal. Buy one, get your second free.

Wantable Intimates

Wantable is a monthly subscription that offers a makeup box, intimates box, and an accessory box. Right now they also have 3 Holiday Boxes to choose from. Subscriptions are $36 per month. Wantable has quickly become one of my favorite boxes. They also have one of the best return policies - if you don't like it just send it back, no questions asked. 
The Box
MukLuks Tights $21
I received a pair of these last month and they are SO soft.
 Argoz Socks $15
I also received a pair of these last month (pink) and love them. 
 Braze Flash Tape $8
I try not to wear things anymore that require tape. 
Betsey Johnson Slip $65
This is cute, but I don't think my boobs would have fit into this in middle school.

While I love the socks I don't love the rest of the box. I will never use the slip or the tape. I received a very similar pair of tights last month and I don't wear them all that often. I think I'm going to take advantage of their return policy and send this one back. I'm still a huge fan, though, and I look forward to next month.

Wantable Intimates

This month I switched up my Wantable box and went with the Intimates. Like the other Wantable boxes this one was $36 with a monthly subscription. Wantable makes it super easy to skip a month on any of your boxes and that's what I did with the makeup box this month.

The box looks just like the makeup box.

These were too small for me and really not flattering. Talk about muffin top.
muk luks
I was only able to find them in a 2-pack on Amazon but one pair would be about $21. These tights are unbelievably soft. I don't really like the pattern, though, and there are a bunch of loose threads on them.

The info sheet from Wantable gives this top a value of $18... but it's $20 on the Coobie website. This is a one-size-fits-all top which at first really annoyed me because who do those things ever fit!! Turns out this totally fits me and is incredibly soft. It makes a great layering piece or lounging around the house top.
argoz
I absolutely love these socks. I had looked at this company recently because they have a monthly sock subscription :) I probably wouldn't pay $15 for these socks but I'm thrilled they came in my Wantable box. 

So my Wantable Intimates box had a value of $90. The big ticket item (the shapewear) unfortunately is a no go for me. Wantable has a great policy in regards to getting a full refund if you return the whole box but the refund is very minimal if you just send one or two things back. I looked at returning the shapewear and the tights back but I would only get a $3 refund. I will probably wear the tights even though they aren't my favorite and I can see about selling or trading the shapewear. Either way, I'm still in love with Wantable. I'm going to stick with the Intimates box for now.

Wantable

Wantable is an awesome monthly service that lets you pick between makeup, jewelry, or intimates. Right now they even have a Halloween box. Each box is $36 with a subscription and you can pause or cancel them at any time. I've been getting the makeup box and I'm super impressed with their questionnaire which really narrows it down to make sure you get products you'll love.

The Box
The Goods
Now, before you go thinking you are missing some items let me explain. I was missing an item plus I received the nail polish in a different color than what the info sheet said I was getting. I contacted customer service via their website and within a couple days I had new polish and the makeup brush to make up for the sample they were out of. Wonderful customer service.
polish
$11/each
I really like both of these colors. I wouldn't choose FancyPants(brown) for myself but after I tried it out I really liked it. Nookie (pink) is spot on for me.
cailyn eyeliner
$20.65
Ok, Wantable, I know I told you I like gel eyeliner but it's been in my last 3 boxes. I'm covered for the time being.
$23
I'm thrilled with this brush they sent me to make up for the missing item (and this brush is WAY better than the silly samples I was missing). I wish I would get more tools. Maybe I need to change my preferences.
bombshell
$14.99
This nude color doesn't show up on my eyelids at all. 
mascara
$26
I find it a little strange that I can't find this specific mascara even on Cailyn's website. I've used pricing from another of their mascaras. This one is subtle. Not very dramatic. 

This box had an impressive value of $106.64. Of course, that does include the extras I got.
I love my Wantable Makeup boxes but I'm putting it on hold for October and trying out the Intimates box. I can't wait to see what I get.

Don't forget to enter the great GIVEAWAYS I've got going on right now!

Wantable

Wantable offers two boxes. Makeup or jewelry. Subscriptions are $36 per month. So far I've only tried the makeup. I'm not much of a jewelry person and when I am I'm picky. So here's what it looks like.

The Box
wantable
The inner wrapping
makeup subscription
The Goods
makeup
Cailyn Eyeshadow
$15
Great color for me. I love pink and purple shadows.
cailyn
Cailyn Eyelashes
$10
I love false lashes but hardly ever wear them. I've got a special occassion coming up and hopefully I'll remember these!
false eyelashes
Michael Marcus Lipstick
$24
I constantly see famous people all glammed up with heavy eyes and a nude lip and I love the look. But for some reason I just don't feel like I pull it off. This lipstick may be a little to pale for me.
Face Gel Eyeliner
$24
I told Wantable how much I loved this eyeliner from last month and this month I get it in a different color! Sweet!
Pure Ease Brush Cleaner
$12
I'm terrible about cleaning my brushes. I even own another bottle of brush cleaner. 
Lise Watier Ombre Souffle Sample
This is a sweet little sample of colors that I can use!

Once again I was hoping not to like Wantable based on how saturated I've been with their advertisements. And once again I absolutely loved the box. I told them what I loved from the first box, and I got more this time. It's on the spendy side for me but, wow, they are spot on. Can't wait till next month. You can sign up HERE.

July Favorites

I'm linking up with My Subscription Addiction to bring you my July favorites!

Cherry Lovers from Goodies
Yeah, I ordered 4 huge bags of these :)
OXO Roll Up Bib from Mommies First
I might be jumping the gun here because I haven't even finished this review, but finally a serious bib that actually sits normally around my kids shoulders and neck.
To be honest, I haven't even used the stuff. I just keep smelling/huffing it. I looooove the smell.
MiaBelleZza Gel Eyeline from Wantable
I LOVE gel eyeliner and didn't own a brown! 

I think I've used this everyday since I got it. Really, Wantable is hitting it out of the park for me.
What were your favorites this month?

Wantable

Wantable finally pulled me in with their buy the first month, get the second month free deal. I thought I was going to do the jewelry option, but after completing the questionnaire and seeing what they thought I would like I changed my mind and went for the beauty option. Wantable is $36 per month or you can get a one time box for $40.

The box:

First Look:

The card says this is actually the June box. Whatever. So June apparently is all about bright lips, matte nails, and glowing cheeks. 

A little extra something: Eye Gels
I'm excited to try these out.



The fact that it was wrapped up just made the anticipation that much greater.

The goods:

Simply Beautiful Cheek Tint
$22
When I first saw the color I thought there was no way I would wear it. I have since tried it and I actually love it. It's really subtle which is my style.

Face Stockholm Matte Shadow Joy
$20
A great flat coffee color which I can wear daily or glam it up for evening.

Mia BelleZZa Cream Gel Eyeliner Marrone
$16.50
I love gel eyeliner and I indicated this on my profile so I was thrilled to see it in my box. Plus, I don't have any brown and it goes great with the eyeshadow from this month.

Face Stockholm Volumizing Mascara
$24
Even though I prefer a subtle makeup approach I want dramatic eyelashes. This is a good mascara, but it doesn't wow me. 

Cala Retractable Lip Brush
$8
I never use a lip brush. Maybe because i'm more of a chapstick or gloss kind of gal. Of all the tools they could have sent me this is probably the only one I wouldn't use. I'll pass it on.

The total value of my Wantable box for July is $90.50. Even with the lip brush that I won't use that is pretty terrific. For some reason I really fought this subscription. Maybe because I was inundated with their advertisements? I'm glad I finally caved, however, and I'm looking forward to next month. Especially since it's my free box!
