Looking for a beauty box subscription service that specializes in Makeup? Then Wantable is for you! The service delivers 4 to 6 full-size premium makeup products, hand-picked to perfectly match your preferences and each box is valued at $80 and up. The subscription runs at $36/month, or you can purchase a single box for $40. Subscriptions are monthly and can be skipped or canceled at anytime, no strings attached.
What makes the Wantable box really stand out (other than the full sized products, not small samples) is that they offer two options to choose from – Makeup Box or Accessories Box. The fashion accessories box works about the same way as makeup: 3 to 4 boutique jewelry pieces that fit your style, valued at $80-100. You can switch between makeup and jewelry box according to your choice….so whether you are in the mood for some new makeup goodies or baubles, Wantable has you covered!
Obviously, I chose the Makeup box.
First of all, you start by taking a detailed style quiz to customize your Wantable Box according to your category preferences. There are many different makeup categories like eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, lip products etc and they give you a choice not only to pick out your shade preferences but even the type and textures you like (for eg – matte, cream or shimmer eyeshadows)
You can set each category to love, like or dislike. Wantable assures that you’re more likely to receive what you love and will never receive what you dislike (I didn’t want to get any brow products so I chose ‘dislike’ for that category)
Here’s what I got in my August Makeup Box :
Let’s take a look at the individual products now….
Susan Posnick Color Eye Define in Turquoise/Topaz ($26, full size) – A slender pencil comprised of an angled liner on one side and a self-dispensing eye shadow on the other side. I’m loving the turquoise liner and topaz shadow combination! The eyeliner goes on smoothly and is also safe for use on the inside rim (waterline) of eyes.
FACE Stockholm Nail Polish in #164 ($12, full size) – This polish applies smoothly and needs just 2 coats for opacity. The color I got is a gorgeous shimmer platinum that would be perfect for the fall months! The three-free formula contains no DBP, Toluene or Formaldehyde.
Cailyn Cosmetics Line Fix Gel pencil in Charcoal ($17, full size) – This is my favorite product in the box! It’s a creamy, highly pigmented gel eyeliner in a pencil form. The pencil glides on super smoothly and is also waterproof & smudge proof. Love the rich, shimmery dark grey that makes my brown eyes pop!
Lise Watier Haute Couleur High Coverage Lip lacquer Rouge Catwalk ($22, full size) – I had never tried anything from Lise Watier but wanted to, so it was good to find this lippie in my box! This liquid lipstick has a non-sticky, long-lasting formula that offers rich, vibrant color with a high shine finish. The color I received is Rouge Catwalk, a shimmery bright red…I like! The container has a chic mirror and the applicator is equipped with an LED light that lights up every time you open it…fancy schmancy!
Manna Kadar Gloss Ware Long Lasting Lip Gloss ($19, full size) – This is a new-to-me brand but I liked what I got! This hot pink lipgloss (the shade is called Paint Job) is a bit sticky but the color payoff is great and it lasts long too.
Lise Watier Ombre Soufflé Supreme Sample – This card came with samples of two Ombre Soufflé cream eyeshadows in Sunrise Peach and Vert enchanté. Both are lovely colors!
Overall, count me impressed with the Wantable beauty box! The total value of the products I received in my box is $96 so the box definitely offers a great value at $36/month. It may be more expensive than most beauty subscription boxes out there, but you definitely get more bang for your buck! And I love that you can really choose the type of makeup products you want and what you don’t want. But if you are still not happy with what you get, you can send back your box for a full refund, and you can always skip a month or cancel your subscription at any time. They also ship internationally.
What do you think of Wantable? Will you be signing up?
We got a couple of the same products. I would have liked your box more though!
Oh I love your nail polish shade and I want one of the Cailyn Gel liners. I hope next month that I’ll end up with one.
