"BE BOLD. BE DARING. WEAR LIPSTICK"
- Lipstick Junkie
Ever wanted your monthly dose of lippies? Now you can get your fix! Lipstick Junkie is a lipstick and lip care subscription box. Each monthly box ships out with 4-5 full sized lip products from liquid lip stick to lip scrubs! Of course, I had the lovely opportunity to try out a month of the Lipstick Junkie box which was filled with surprises!
Inside my June Lipstick Junkie box was a slew of lipsticks to kick off the Summer right.
Keep your lips nice and hydrated with the Kiss Me Honey organic lip balm in Strawberry! This lip balm has many antioxidants and anti-aging vitamins to been your lips smooth and moisturized. I'd like to keep this in my purse for those days at the beach. Only down side to this is that it does not taste like strawberries, but a very strong beeswax taste.
I also received the Makeup Revolution matte lipstick which is one of my favorite affordable brands! I can tell you now, this is what I would get when starting out in makeup as the formula is GORGEOUS! Possible my favorite product in the box with no complaints.
In the box as well was a lip pot by Skull Sugar Cosmetics in Pretty Bitch. How will I put this on though? Without a problem because Lipstick Junkie Box included the ELF retractable lip brush. Don't they just love making things easier? This isn't a rag on the box, but this felt kind of like children's makeup. Not only that, but with the pot saying it's "pigment-rich, high-impact color" I really couldn't see much of a tint when applied.
Lastly, we have the Oh My Lola lipstick which is a fairly new indie brand! The formula is very smooth, and can I mention for some reason this lipstick smells good to me? I've followed this brand on Instagram for a long time and I see them like my posts a lot - so knowing they also interact with people is a plus.
My final conclusions for the Lipstick Junkie subscription box for June the PRODUCTS would have to be a 3.5/5 stars. I love the diversity of colors and brands you receive in the box. Also may I add the packaging is gorgeous! My feelings for a lipstick box though would be to at least have one liquid product in the box. That's just a personal preference for myself because I swear by liquid to matte or liquid lipsticks. Another personal preference of mine is that I rarely ever use gloss, so it was a downside for me.
For the box itself I would like to give it a 5/5. Seeing past boxes and future boxes, I have seen products I would've loved to try. Boxes I've seen in and out through the past few months were always great boxes, I just feel like my picky preference can get in the way of things. Being one of the first indie brand boxes nether the less indie brand lipstick boxes, I could see myself subscribing for a long time.
