SlutBox by Amber Rose March 2019 Review
SlutBox usually comes with a zine every month but this is the second month that they've "gone green" and simply provided a small card with a few of the products and a web address to view the zine digitally online.
Measurable Difference Posh Matte Liquid Lipstick in 'Future Ex', 0.09 oz - Retail Value $30.00 (found here for $12.00)
Wow, this is a very specific color. It is an opaque matte bright orchid and is never something I would wear. I realize this is subjective, and though it is not my cup of tea I totally see this color being "on brand" for this box. The formula itself seems really nice, it is a velvety texture with a little shine and one coat coverage.
Manna Kadar Radiance Highlighter and Bronzer Duo, 3 g - Retail Value $21.00
The flipside to that purple lipstick is this super wearable and dare I say, subtle, bronzer and highlighter duo. I have gotten this item in a box before and I liked the shades much more as eyeshadows on my fair skin. Both of these powders is silky and highly pigmented. They blend effortlessly.
Top: Lipstick, Bottom: Bronzer/Highlighter combo!
Watermelon #Lubelife Sample, 0.3 fl oz - Buy 8 oz for $9.99
Mint Chocolate Chip #Lubelife Sample, 0.3 fl oz - Buy 8 oz for $9.99
Is it even a SlutBox without lube? The curators went favored this month and while I have seen watermelon flavored lube before, never have I ever seen or heard of one with mint chocolate chip flavor. This is a water-based formula that is safe for use with natural rubber latex, polyurethane, and polyisoprene condoms. I appreciate how specific they are about this on the back, as some lubes leave it a mystery, which doesn't really promote safe sex. Of course, I did smell and taste each sample, because of due diligence, right? Both smelled like their flavors and were actually pretty accurate taste wise too!
Pink and Black Silk Blindfold - Listed Value $18.99
I don't think this is real silk, which annoys me a little because it is listed as silk, and I can be a fiber snob. Other than that, this is a really nice blindfold I like that it is double sided. It is long enough for all sorts of fun.
OMGLOW Highlight Finishing Spray in 'Incredible', sample size - Buy 8 oz for $30.00
This finishing spray was filled with tony gold mica particles that gave my skin a subtle glow when sprayed on top of my makeup. I think this spray nozzle just isn't the right one for this formula though, because it was more of a full blown spray rather than a mist, and each spray just put way too much on my face. I am guessing (hoping) that the full size has more of a mist because I think I would really like this formula, especially in the summer on bare skin or legs.
Sustain Natural Ultra Thin Lubricated Latex Condoms, 3 pack - Retail Value $4.99 (found here for $3.99)
I am always down for a good time and if I am doing good in the process that is an added bonus! 10% of the profits from the sales of these condoms support women's health organizations, meaning you can feel good all-around using these ultra-thin latex condoms.
Measurable Difference Tweezers – Retail Value $23.00
I can always use more tweezers, so while this item is something I will certainly use, it does feel a little flat in a box otherwise filled with crazy lipstick, flavored lube, and condoms. The quality of these are great though, and I like that they came with a little pouch and a protective tip cap.
Verdict: This was my first SlutBox and while it did have some winners, I am not quite sure I am the right audience for it. I am not one for bright purple lipstick or flavored lubricants, but I will say that if you are, these were both great items. It might have been more fun to get a full bottle of lube, but then I likely wouldn't have gotten to sample different flavors. The highlighter/bronzer duo is one of those items that anyone can appreciate, and I would say the same for the finishing spray, despite its problematic nozzle. The condoms and blindfold were spot on for what I expected from this box and though I can always use tweezers, they just kind of felt like a random addition.
