February Glossybox

Hello everyone! How are you all today? I hope your week is going well. I'm sorry for the late post. Yesterday I got into a car accident when a truck tried to make pate out of me on the freeway, so I literally just spent the rest of the day snuggling my cat in bed. But, all is well and onto February's Glossybox!

I have to say I was happy with this month's box. There were at least two items I really liked. Let's take a look inside..

1. Puffy the Eyebag Slayer Wake Up Under Eye Patches ($11 for box of 3) - I love these eye patches! This was my favorite item in the entire box. The box comes with 3 sets of eye patches that stick well to your skin. They're like jello sucking pads that stay put like stickers. I love how I can stick them on, do something for 30 minutes and throw them away. I have to say they only lightened my dark circles a smudge, but it makes me happy when I know I am doing something proactive for my skin. I thought these were super fun and I would definitely buy them again.

2. Nail Couture in City of Angels ($18)- Wow, 18 for a nail polish? Sometimes I really wonder how nail polish evolved to be so expensive. Anyways, I think it's a really pretty ballet pink color that would look great on many skin tones. I plan on trying it out once I remove my current gel mani.

3. Aqua Lacquer in Splashing Scarlett ($14)- Ahhh, I feel so lucky to receive this gloss in my box. A full size pretty strawberry lip gloss? Yes please! The color is a sheer reddish pink and looks good for those no makeup days.



4. Kala Color Intense Pencil ($15)- This eyeliner goes on like a wet intense black. However, I had some trouble getting it to glide evenly without clumps. I think it would've been so much better if it came with a smudger on the end. Nothing compares to the deep, rich color of this eyeliner. Transform your eyes, add gorgeous definition and make the whites whiter by simply drawing the line. Ideal for use on the inner water line of your eye, as well as the outer lash. Don’t worry, you can blend and play, but it will last all day... and all night.

5. COLOUR FANATIC Multi-Tasking Hair Beautifier for Color-Treated Hair ($24)- I have yet to use this multi spray yet, but I will later. I know Pureology makes great products so I'm looking forward to trying this. Introducing COLOUR FANATIC™, a first of its kind multi-tasking hair treatment spray that provides 21 essential benefits to prime, protect, and perfect colour-treated hair.

What did you guys think of this month's box? Have you tried any of the products before? I hope you enjoyed reading this post and I will see you soon! :)

December Glossybox

Hi everyone! How are you doing? I know this is a bit late but I'm trying to catch up on my box reviews, so here is the December Glossybox review. It was a good box, lets take a look inside..

1. Anatomicals You need a blooming shower! ($9.50)- I really loved this body wash. It smells exactly like roses and it didn't make my skin dry either! This vitalizing body cleanser makes every shower a flower-power experience. The natural healing properties of rose and jasmine leave you feeling as fresh and fragrant as a flower.

2. Naobay Oxygenating Cream Moisturizing ($56)- Out of everything in this box I was most excited to try this product. Because I have finicky eczema prone skin I am always on the hunt for a great moisturizer. I was pleased with the product and it worked well. It's a bit thicker than I normally like, but it was still non-greasy and provided plenty of hydration. Oxygenating Cream moisturizes, protects and softens: this universal cream meets, in a single product, the essential needs of hydration for all skin types. Its special composition based on high-quality plant extracts and organic vegetable oils, such as Rosehip oil and Sweet Almond oil, helps ideally balance the skin’s hydrolipidic film.



3. Michael Todd True Organics Pumpkin Nutrient-Rich Facial Mask ($34)- This mask smells so much like fresh pumpkin you will think it's Thanksgiving. And exfoliant lovers will give Thanks! That tingle is the pumpkin enzyme combining with glycolic acid to go to town on your skin’s flaws dissolving impurities like dead skin and clogged pores. Adds brightness and radiance to the skin and significantly improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after a single use.

4. nails inc. Victoria Polish ($9.50)- This nail polish is SO gorgeous! I already own a lot of vampy like colors but this one was unique. It was a bit red, a bit antique-y, and really shiny too. After two or three coats the color became opaque and wore for two weeks with a bottom and top clear coat.



5. Ardency Inn PUNKER World’s Baddest Eyeliner ($19)- PUNKER eyeliner is easier to use than traditional liquid liners and offers endless possibilities of application. Its oversized felt tip applicator tapers to a precise point for maximum versatility. The short and thick “maker pen” design allows for optimum control during application. The high performance formula glides on smooth and quick-dries to a long lasting finish. Because I prefer thinner eyeliners, I will be gifting this to a friend.

I thought this box was good again. I loved the Victoria nail polish and the Anatomicals rose body wash. What did you guys think of this box? Thank you so much for reading and see you next Monday! :)

August Glossybox

Hello everyone!

How are all of you doing? August's Glossybox is here and I have to say that I am quite happy with this box! There is nothing better to coming home to a lovely box of goodies and getting a lipstick shade that actually flatters your skin. Let's take a look at what was inside of this month's box.



1. Jelly Pong Pong Lip Blush in Marshmallow Pink (full size $12)- A moisturizing lip stain that tints your lips with just the right amount of juicy colour and hydrates like a balm. Apply liberally, purse and let the silky lightweight texture melt onto your lips. How fun is this pink lip stain? I absolutely love lip stains because they are comfortable to wear and generally look more natural. This soft petal pink lipstick looks more hot pink on the lips and looks really good with a post summer tan. I love it! Ok, next item...

2. ModelCo Eyeshadow in Bronze Goddess (full size $22)- When I first saw this sample eyeshadow trio in my box I was soo excited. However, it's not without flaws. The light golden color is very light and very very flakey. The color comes out in large flakes which is hard to blend out. The darker color doesn't seem to have this problem tho.



3. Anatomicals Spray Misty For me Facial Spritz (full size $9) - This facial spray is wonderful for a spritz while lounging at the beach or hiking the trails. It contains calming lavender and refreshing peppermint extracts, which help to rehydrate and revitalize skin. Suitable for normal, dry and sensitive skin. A part of the reason why I love Glossybox is that I get products that I would never usually pick up or try. This facial spritz is really fun and perfect for the scorching oven I'm currently living in. I sprayed it directly onto my face and it didn't irritate my eyes either. The smell is actually really pleasant and I love it!



4. Novex Brazilian Keratin Hair Care Treatment Cream (full size $4.99) - This hair care cream is an essential preemptive treatment in anticipation of the drier seasons. It contains replenishing hair proteins to restore shine and smoothness for all hair types. Start using it now for a healthy head of hair in the fall. Ok, I used this in the shower and left it in my hair for five minutes. It made my hair soft and a bit shinier.

5. Sue Devitt Triple C-Weed Pressed Powder (full size $28) - Formulated with nourishing green tea and brightening vitamin C, this lightweight pressed powder controls shine and evens out skin tone while setting makeup. It‘s soft, natural-looking skin contained in a compact, a perfect companion to have in your purse while basking in the sun. With flexible Nylon-12, Triple C-Weed Pressed Powder won't settle into fine lines to ensure a flawless finish. This lightweight pressed powder comes in a mirror compact with an ultra modern micro-sponge, making it the perfect on-the-go companion. Wow, it's really generous of Glossybox to give us a full size powder compact. I have yet to try this compact because the shade looks really light. I will have to try it later for winter.
