It’s that time of year again as we step out of hibernation mode toward longer, warmer days. Spring goes hand in hand with the need to purge, so we’re cleaning out our closets, cabinets, and even our minds in preparation for newness. We’re also longing for a refresh, whether that be a new hairdo, a new skincare regime, or a handful of fun, new makeup products to play with. That’s why this month’s Power Picks (aka the superstar products or brands you’re guaranteed to get in your monthly shipment) feel extra exciting. Keep reading for an inside scoop on the standout products coming your way this month.
Wondering what you might get next month? Check out our May's Power Picks spoilers now.
Every month, Glam Bag subscribers are guaranteed at least one Power Pick in their five-product assortment. Members who signed up for a Glam Bag in April might receive one of the following Power Picks:
Let’s just say this mascara totally deserves to have a big ego. It coats your lashes in ultra-black pigment and gives them dramatic lift, length, and volume. Plus, it won’t clump or flake no matter how many coats you apply.
This lightweight liquid primer is basically the secret to a poreless and flawless base. Infused with squalane, it glides smoothly onto your skin, keeping your makeup in place for long-lasting wear while minimizing the look of any pesky pores for a silky-smooth complexion.
This color-correcting crayon helps instantly brighten up your complexion in just a few easy swipes. Both the soft peach shade (ideal for fair to tan skin tones) and the revitalizing apricot shade (perfect for tan to deeper skin tones) work to help neutralize darkness so you feel bright-eyed and ready to go.
This super moisturizing yet ultra-light gel-cream is here to help increase hydration so your complexion looks and feels supple and smooth. Formulated with powerful marine and plant actives, including padina pavonica (helps plump and moisturize), chlorella (high in antioxidants), and ginkgo biloba (antibacterial), it also works hard to help reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Every month, BoxyCharm subscribers will get two Power Picks in their five-product assortment. Members who signed up for a BoxyCharm in April might receive the following:
This pitch-black lash primer is here to make your mascara look even better. It’s infused with nylon fibers (for length and volume) and argan and grapeseed oils to help nourish your lashes. Plus, the double-arch molded crescent brush perfectly separates and coats each lash from root to tip with deep black pigments.
Don’t have any spring break plans? Pretend you're in paradise with this beautiful face and eyeshadow palette. This carefully curated collection is designed to transport you to the lush landscapes and vibrant colors of a tropical paradise. Whether you're aiming for a subtle daytime glow or a bold, tropical-inspired evening look, these shadows deliver stunning results.
Your setting powder prayers have been answered. This super-soft, sheer powder is baked with skin-loving ingredients like bamboo stem and passionfruit leaf extracts and Chinese peony to sweep away shine (not glow!) and leave your skin looking and feeling smooth.
Spring is the ultimate blush season, and this palette is the perfect accessory. It features six shades (including five matte formulas and one shimmer shade) that can truly fit any and every skin tone. Whether you use them on your cheeks for a gorgeous flush or on your eyes for a monochromatic moment, you’ll love the versatility.
This one is for all the vanilla lovers out there. This cozy scent is a best-seller for a reason: It combines creamy sandalwood, sweet white florals, milky coconut, and vanilla bourbon to transport you to your own little utopia. You could also receive one of four other scents from the brand: Déjà vu White Flower, Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper, Musk, or Invite Only Sweet Amber.
