Every Cyber Monday, Too Faced releases a Cyber Monday Grab Bag, and it sells out that day. (This box is no longer available for sale. If you want a reminder when the next one is available, make sure to sign up for the daily MSA newsletter).

My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

The Box: Too Faced Cyber Monday Grab Bag

The Cost: $39

The Products: Surprise yourself with this top-secret assortment of Too Faced favorites valued at $137. A once a year exclusive! Hurry, though—limited quantities are available.

Soul Mates Blushing Bronzer in Ross and Rachel (Value $34 - On Sale for $30.60)

I think this is my favorite item in the box. The color doesn't go on too strong (AKA - no risk of immediate clown cheeks), and I love the blush and bronze color combo:

Plus any Friends reference is always a good thing in my book!

Melted Liquified Lipstick in Melted Rainbow (Value $21)

I love the Melted Lipstick formula, but I had a feeling this color would be too bold for me, and I was right. It really is a great product, though! Here is the applicator tip:

And the formula itself adds color (lots of pigment), shine, and no stickiness! (Swatched in a later photo).

Rock N Roll Rock Candy Palette (Value $36)

Too Faced has some of the best packaging! Here is the palette:

These colors have a lot of pigment and are more wearable than I originally thought they would be. Here they are swatched (with the liquid lipstick):

Retractable Bronze-Buki Brush (Value $34)

This goes perfectly with the Ross and Rachel bronzer. And here it is in action:

(Can you tell I really wanted to use my GIF app?)

Better Than Sex Mascara (Deluxe Size - Value $12)

 

This mascara is great! You can apply lots of layers to get tons of length without any clumping. I give it an A!

Verdict: This Mystery Grab Bag was such a great deal! It has a retail value of $137, and besides the liquid lipstick, I'll use (and love) everything in the box! Now I just want to buy more Too Faced items! (Wouldn't it be great if they launched a subscription?)

What do you think of the Too Faced Cyber Monday Grab Bag? Were you able to grab one?

That mascara is the best! It’s about $25 a bottle full sized, been using it for years now… The great thing, when the tube starts to get dry, 1 drop of water, a couple pumps in the tube to mix it up, brand new again!

This is not a subscription box. It is a one-time purchase. If you just sign up for the Too Faced email list (go to their site and there will be a pop-up) you can be informed by email of all their promotions. I am on their list and it really isn’t too bad, I don’t even get emails every day.

I absolutely love this bag and I had no idea they did this until I saw it on your site! Thank you so much for always keeping us updated. Too Faced is my, hands down, favorite makeup and I did not want to miss this. The I love every single product in this bag and even though I already own Ross & Rachel, it is still a great bronzer and the value of the bag more than made up for a duplicate item. I am most excited to try the Rock & Roll pallet and the Melted Rainbow ( I think I have 10 Melted colors now) and, of course, Better Than Sex is always a win!

I meant to stay up for this, but fell asleep. I was ecstatic the next morning when it was still available. It came yesterday and I LOVE it! I love the products and the packaging is adorable. In the beauty box review questionnaires they always ask if packaging is important and I always put it low on the list but really it DOES matter – it draws me in and makes me happy! I too cannot wait until next year – I will definitely stay up for this!!!

The only things I won’t use is the bronzer and the melted lipstick. I am way too pale for those but the other stuff was worth it to me. That’s the beauty of grab bags so I can’t complain and someone gets a nice bronzer for xmas!

Totally worth ordering at 1 a.m. My mailman delivered this at 7a.m. this morning so I was able to try everything out this morning. The melted lipstick is a little bold, but I still love it 🙂 Friends is my all time favorite TV show so I was super excited about the bronzer/blush combo too. This is one of my favorite cyber Monday purchases. Already counting down for next year 😉

Liz, if it’s not too much trouble (and I truly understand if it is, I write reviews as a hobby only and it’s amazing how long it takes me to write just one, I don’t know how you do it!), could you look at the packages and see if any of these products were not made in China?

I know some of Too FAced products are and some are not, which is why I didn’t order this box, but I’d like to get an idea of what they send for next time.

Thanks.

If they launched a sub, I would drop all others! That would just be too perfect! I love my mystery bag and it was worth staying up until 3 am to order! Great review 🙂
