*purchased by me*

New Boxy is here! But before we even jump inside,did you see the spoilers for upcoming boxes? December Boxy Luxe looks fab already!Also Boxy launched Premium box for$35 a month and guess what?!? I think I will be getting it!Yay! There is so much I want to tell you but my keyboard is giving me a hard time... the space button seems to be stuck :(

Oh well.... anyways welcome to Boxy After Dark, October edition. I don't want to repeat myself much but Boxy seriously need to check peoples preferences when it comes to makeup. This month I am half happy.2 products I will use, 2 I don't and 1 I am on the fence... 

Lets start with two my faves in this month box:

* Dose of Colors- Sassy Siennas palette - I think almost every box go Dose of Colors palette. There were variation and I ended up with Sassy Siennas. I love it.

  All matte shades and the quality is beautiful! I hunt the palettes down in sell/trade groups and bought Baked Browns and Marvelous Mauves. Berries are next on my list. These beauties retail for $35

* Iconic London Prep Set and Glow spray - first off the sparkles are beautiful!It leaves gorgeous sheen on the skin. I use this more as a body shimmer spray. Another thing I love about it is the scent! so lovely but so heavy and I would never spray it on my face LOL. but body is ok! Retails at $29

* Hank and Henry Slick with it Mascara Duo-this have to be my third mascara... and this is the product I am torn about . Like I want to try it and on the other hand not. So far I was only disappointed with mascaras. But I heard the brand is really good so I might give it a go. Retails at $19

* Mellow Cosmetics Brow Gel in shade Dark Brown - something that i am not interested at all. Even my profile says no brow or liners pls! I could have try it if only they sent my shade... Dark Brown is so not me... Pass....Retails value $16

* Hollywood and Vine BlackKohl liner- another product  I am not into it. I don;t use eye liners at all.. so pass ...Retail at $7

Last two products I didn't bother to open. Figured I can gifted to someone or add to giveaway pile.

Total value of the box $103
I think this is the cheapest box I got so far. Usually value for my boxes is over $120.
Anyways I think next month you all will see two Boxy unboxing :) So stay tuned for that :)

 

Profusion Cosmetics MIRAGE palette - is it a perfect Fall palette?

*pr sample*

If you follow my blog and IG for sometime,you know I love Profusion Cosmetics. 

Not only they are affordable but gosh the quality is freaking amazing. 

If you struggle to find affordable matte palettes or matte eye-shadows, well look no further. Profusion mattes preform better then some of the high end ones. What ever Profusion makes its a big hit not only with me but with all beauty community.

Mirage is the new baby of theirs.Palette launched maybe two months ago. The color scheme is eye pleasing. Mix of warm tones, pinks, purples and there are three pressed glitter shades. 

The matte shadows like in every other palette are amazing. Pigmented and blend like a dream. Shimmers are stunning and best when applied with a finger. Personally not a fan of pressed glitters, but I see a lot of brands puts them in the palettes. I guess that is the new thing LOL. But seriously this palette is such a  great transition from Summer to Fall. I mean just look at the shades! You know does it remind me? Sunsets. Few weeks ago the sunsets in NYC were beautiful! From bright orange to beautiful purple-pink skyline. Gosh that was such a beautiful view! You would not believe it! I feel the sunsets during September are beautiful. But why do I think that this palette is perfect for Fall? well just look at the warmth, the beautiful gold,browns, oranges. Does that not remind you of Fall leaves!? My dream is to go to Vermont or Main during this time and see the changes over there. 

Here are the swatches:

I have no words, this might one of the best Profusion palettes. Adore all the shades and the super high end quality. Also this palette retails for only $13 !!! You can grab it at Profusion website and Walmart that sells Profusion Cosmetics. 

One more thing before I leave to write another post. This palette reminds me of Sunrise palette by Natasha Denona. I don't own it but I saw it at Sephora few times and each time makes me think of Mirage and when I look at mirage,Sunrise palette comes to mind. It might a great and an affordable dupe in my opinion. LOL now I want to go and spend $65n on ND palette to compare.Should I? Let me know what you think :)
