Reading material for you readers…

As we say in the subscription world,

Let’s dig in!

Farmacy Hydrating Coconut Gel Mask x 3 – Well since this is three mask pack and my refrigerator is getting well stocked in masks, I decided to try one of these out whilst picturing and blogging. This is three Brightening masks and not a trio of different masks.

 

Farmacy packaging is always gorgeous.

 

I did smell a light coconut scent but no broccoli!

 

I am not sure about these directions. I do get the “Farm”acy part but using the words “Plant” and “Harvest” sounds weird. “Nurture” sounds ok though. I still feel nurtured 24 hours post-harvesting.

 

So the directions state that there are three layers of this mask. We use the middle one.

Do not be alarmed at the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man’s face because the middle mask does fold into itself so the mask will stay on your face!!!

The interesting thing is that there all three sheets are different. But the middle sheet (the one you use) appears to be the same on both sides. Below is a picture of the top/bottom sheets that protect the middle sheet.

I wonder whether the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man will be in the new Ghostbusters.

 

Cougar Beauty Face and Body Shimmer – Besides the fact that anything branded cougar screams a older female of humankind, this would make a nice body shimmer mixed with lotion. Or the face if you were to face paint with it as an accompaniment. Unfortunately, this would not be a good pixie dust candidate for fairies that leave gifts at my girls’ fairy door. I think I will add this to some sunscreen/lotion for the girls and have them hop in a kiddie pool on a hot sunny day.

I have way too much shimmer powders and eyeliners in my face painting arsenal. I probably have one of the fanciest face and body tattoo kits. 

 

Girlactik Beauty Precise Eyeliner Marker – I switched this over the Couger Shimmer so this may explain the eyelashes on the kitty swatch.

This eyeliner was made in Germany as with most eyeliners.

Off to my face/body glitter tattoo kit for the kids it goes!

 

OFRA Cosmetics Oil Control Pressed Powder – I may not like OFRA, a subscription box makeup brand, but certain items they do really well like this Oil Control Pressed Powder. This is my second favorite product next to their face primer/spackle (that has [sili]cones but I prefer cones in my primers). Of course, one should not apply with fingers but a nice fluffy brush. The packaging looks cheep in the picture but it is a very durable and sturdy compact.

I want to use this in a powder room to powder my nose. Actually my t-zone but nose sounded better. 

LVX Nail Lacquer in Serene – I am glad that the top of this nail polish was able to come off because the actual top makes this easier to apply. I will save this for next Easter. The color kind of reminds me of the Hard Candy Nail Polishes of yore.

A more adult-like Hard Candy Nail Polish color of yore. Without the plastic ring. 

 

Verdict: I liked this month’s Boxy. I really like the fact that BOXYCHARM gave not one, not two, but three masks! The OFRA brand is growing on me and I needed an oil control blotting powder. I got another Easter nail polish for next year. I think I will use the Cougar in one shimmery shot with my non-cougar wee ones to fancy up the kiddie pool. With a light hand, I think I can use this eyeliner pen as part of my face/body glitter tattoo kit for the girls.

 

What say you about anything random?

Do you like broccoli? If not, would you put this mask on your face? It does not smell like broccoli.
