Vegancuts Makeup Box "Festival Chic" Spring 2020 Review

Pacifica Beachy Punk Eyeshadow Palette - Retail Value $18.00 (currently on sale for $12.60)
I am really feeling these colors! That green, in particular, reminds me of the Glossier 'Lawn' Skywash shade I have been lusting after. This will be a nice trial before I splurge on that. The formulas here are very soft and smooth. The shimmers are easier to apply than the mattes, but a little extra play makes those blossom into a smoky finish that is really beautiful. I felt a little let down with how sheer the electric purple 'Raw Power' shade is, but on my lids, I actually appreciate this because the effect is still there, but the wash look makes it much more wearable. I also love that grey-blue 'Heroes' shade because it applies in such a haze.

CLE Cosmetics Melting Lip Powder in 'Desert Rose', 2 g - Retail Value $20.00
I wanted to love this stuff so badly, but I just don't. Basically, this tube is filled with loose powder that turns into liquid upon contact with your lips and feels cold. The color is amazing, a rich berry red. The formula is a little bit of a mess in terms of application. I had powder fallout each time I tried to use it and when I went to brush these spots away they liquified and smeared. The finish itself was also a weird dry but also tacky texture and I had trouble getting decent coverage.
It is such a gorgeous color, but I am just not sold on the formula and application.

Au Naturale The Anywhere Creme Multistick in 'Blossom', 9 ml - Retail Value $35.00
I love a good multistick, and this is a good one! The shade is a soft cool pink with a soft pearly shimmer. I liked it on my lips, cheeks, and even lids. It is super dense and creamy, blending with very little effort. With a light touch it is sheer, but add a little pressure and it turns opaque in terms of coverage.
What a great pink!

Skin Owl Body+ Amethyst Crystal Oil, 2 fl oz - Retail Value $40.00
Our final item is a larger bottle of shimmering purple body oil. The effect is really lovely on the skin, giving it a barely-there sheen than enhances my skin tone and overall texture. The oils inside the US-made formula include safflower, apricot kernel, sweet almond, jojoba, and more, so your skin is getting lots of moisture. I do wish this oil had some sort of scent but I can always add a drop of my fave essential oil blend to customize it.
Verdict: This box has a retail value of $113 which is pretty good for a $39.95 box. I wasn't crazy about all the items included this month, but I did love the palette and multistick, which together make up $53 of the total value, so I still came out ahead. I thought the oil was ok, and I didn't really like the lip powder, which was kind of a bummer since I normally like weird formulas. I still think this is a really fun quarterly box for people looking to add more vegan and cruelty-free products to their beauty routine!
