Starlooks sent me the Starlooks Looksbook November 2015 box to show you. This box comes with three mini products specially selected for the Looksbook.

This month, we received a lipgloss, a cream blush, and a shadow base.

There was also $15 worth of coupons in the box this month.

The Looksbook comes with a little book that gives an idea for using each of the products.

Here I am wearing all three products. I think the blush and the lipgloss provide for a very nice, natural look. I used the eye product as a base for my eyeshadow and it did help the shadow stick a bit better.

What do you think of this month’s Starlooks looksbook?

Starlooks sent me their August 2015 Looksbook to share with you! If you like what you see, you can sign up for $12/month using this referral link! Each month, you get three brand new, limited edition “Perfect Size” items. (That’s code for mini’s.) Each month, it comes in a lovely box with a fold out brochure to give you a ‘look’ idea.

You also get three coupon codes to various sites. Unfortunately, this month, none of them were ones I was compelled to use.

The Looksbook comes in a literal book. The packaging is super cute and it felt more like a present than other sub boxes.

 

In the book/box, they provide a foldout brochure with suggestions on how to wear the products provided.

 

This month, we got three products: A lipstick, an eyeshadow duo, and an eyeshadow stick.

 

The packaging of these items looks fancier than normal Starlooks products. It must be something about the gold accents! :)

 

Upon swatching these, I could tell these are not really ‘my’ colors. I don’t look that great in orange and both the eyeshadow and the lipstick have quite a bit of orange in them. Being the trooper that I am, I decided to create a look using them nonetheless.

 

The green shadow stick does not have a very good color payoff. I would get some on my lid, but when I tried to blend it so it didn’t look clumpy, the color just left. Believe it or not, I did put it on for these pictures!

 

The powder eyeshadow looked a lot better than I was expecting. I was worried it would look super orange on my lids but it actually looks ok. The lipstick is too light for me. I like a rosier lip.

If this was my first experience with a Starbox, I would be a tad disappointed. However, I know that they have a track record of some pretty great boxes, so I would recommend sticking around. This makeup combo would probably look pretty fantastic on someone less pale than me and perhaps with a different personality. :)

Starlooks sent me their August 2015 August 2015 Starbox to share with you! If you like what you see, you can sign up for $12/month using this referral link! Each month, you get three brand new, limited edition “Perfect Size” items. (That’s code for mini’s.) What’s that? $12 for MINI’s? You must be joking. BUT WAIT! There’s more! I also got SIXTY DOLLARS in discount codes. Stop the presses. That’s pretty awesome. So now I can try out items and if I love them, I can go get a full-sized version. Or if I hate them, I can buy something completely different!

What’s that? You want my referral link again? Here you go: https://subscriptions.starlooks.com/?refer=57700

For the discount codes, I did have to make three separate purchases because you can only use one code at a time. Since shipping is free…well…that’s fine with me! I ended up ordering some brush cleaner, a brown eyeliner, and a black eyeliner.

Now, for what I actually have in my hot little hands!

 

I received a full-sized (But Anne, at the beginning of the post, you said it was all small sizes! I know lovely, reader. Aren’t surprises wonderful?) eyeliner brush, a small eyeliner in Brun, and an eyeshadow in Gold Coast.

Let’s take a look at how these things look on my face. I used all three of the products for this look.

Starlooks sent me the July 2015 Customizable Starlooks Starbox! I was able to pick which cosmetic items I received as well as which gift cards. The products I chose this month are:

Lipliner in Noir

Lipgloss in Mad Crush

Blush in Rose Gold

I wore all three products in this look! I’m very happy with all of them! The eyeliner has a very smooth application and you can use a light touch and still get a dark line. The lipgloss is a gorgeous neutral color that helps add to a finished look without making you look overdone. The Rose Gold blush is a real gem! I used a light hand with it as a highlighting shade on my cheekbones and I am very happy with the end result!

The eyeliner held up well all day on the top lid but did fade out on the bottom lid (as bottom liner is apt to do).

In case you’re wondering…yes I’m still using the Schwarzkopf Ultime collection I was sent for a previous review and I still love it. My hair has never been so cooperative!! The eyeshadow I wore in this look is a mishmash of random things I’ve received in my Ipsy bags.

Starlooks sent me their June 2015 customizable Starbox. I went online prior to shipping and picked out what I wanted. I got to choose three items. Their boxes used to be a mystery (and I believe they still have that option) but being able to choose your own products ensures you have the confidence that you’ll like what you get! I picked two lipglosses and a lipliner for this month. I am super obsessed with lip products. All three products are mini-size which is great for your purse or pocket.

In this photo, I am wearing Peony and Guilty Pleasure. This is a great combo for summer as it’s light and fresh, but your lips still look like they have some healthy color.

I have been a fan of Starlooks makeup for a while so I, of course, would recommend checking out their subscription options.
