Beauty Box 5
We're a beauty sampling subscription box that sends you 5 deluxe samples from our favorite brands every month for $12. We're constantly on a quest to find the perfect lipstick.
Ready to get your glitter on?
If you saw our sneak peek, you already know that this month some subscribers will receive Bellapierre’s Cosmetic Glitters, which are ultra-fine, ultra-vibrant, and safe to put any which way you please.
This product is a a ton of fun and can really amp up your eyes for special occasions and late night shenanigans.
Personally, I’m a big fan of these cosmetic glitters for two reasons: there are nine gorgeous colors to choose from and none of Bellapierre’s products irritate my super sensitive eyes.
The only thing I’m not wild about is that that they don’t play very well with eyeshadows that aren’t loose. Also, this is my public service announcement: do not make the mistake of assuming this product is a glitter AND shadow in one, because it isn’t (I totally did and felt a little dumb when I was surprised).
BB5 Tip: Be a mixologist.
No, I don’t mean you should make us fancy and delicious drinks (although we certainly wouldn’t mind), but that you should experiment and mix them with products you already own.
Try adding your cosmetic glitters to:
1. Loose shadows (specifically around the corners of your eyes) to draw attention to those pretty peepers.
2. Lipstick or gloss for an avant-garde pucker (sorry, boyfriends).
3. Nail polish for a fun accent. This is an especially good idea because, unlike craft glitters or even glitter polish, you won’t need to use a ton of elbow grease and nail polish remover to get rid of your manicure.
4. Clear liquid eyeliner to create precise and funky lines.
5. Lotion to give your legs, arms, or decolletage a little oomph.
Oh, and the lucky girls who receive “Sparkle" can save room in their purse by using their cosmetic glitters as illuminizers. Woo, more space for snacks!
Radiantly yours,
Alexa
