Glossybox March 2014

Here are the content of this Month's Glossybox!

 Alex and Ani soap bar- full size. My least favorite in this box, but it smells really good! I never use bar soap though. But I'll try it.  Or re-gift it!

Alterna Bamboo Hair Plumping Strand Expand- Deluxe Sample.  I have really thick hair. So although I tried it, I'm not sure if it worked or not.  I'm giving it to a friend who always complains her hair is too thin, so hopefully it will work for her!

Eyre Belle Liplift Peel- Full Size.  This product is cool! It doesn't taste great, but you can apply it like lip gloss and it has really tiny little grains of something to smooth your lips. It does the job! I prefer sugar scrub because it tastes better and I feel the larger grains exfoliate better, but this works for sure! Probably wouldn't buy it on my own, so Im excited I got it. 

Nails Inc. Brook Street Nail Polish- half size.  I loved this nail polish! A little provides lots of coverage, it dries quickly and it a beautiful color.  Best yet, it lasts a long time and comes off super easy! I can't stand it when nail polishes take forever to get off. I would definitely purchase from this brand. 

Sisley Paris- sample size. Ok so this product full size costs $158.00!!! So that means that this little 10 mL sample is, if you do the math, worth over $30! Crazy!!!  It's this cream like mask that you wipe, not wash, off. It worked instantly, making fine lines temporarily disappear.  I will have to try it again to see if the results are consistent. I would never pay that much $ for it (or pretty much anything for that matter), but it does work.  If it made all my wrinkles disappear forever, I would totally buy it.  But it's a temporary fix and there is no way.  But glad I got to try it. 

My favorite thing I this box is a bonus that they put in. It's an adorable bangle bracelet by Alex and Ani ( maybe cause they felt bad that we were getting a bar soap? Hee Hee) It is well made and totally cute. I wear it every day. It costs $28 so that was super nice of them!

Glossybox is quickly becoming one of my favorite boxes. It just feels luxurious. You get so much for your $21 and the size of the products and the quality of the products is just awesome. Especially in comparison to Birchbox and their often times skimpy samples. If you add it all up, the value of this box is around $100! Not too shabby...

Glossybox February 2014

Thetheme this month for Glossybox is "the month of LOVE" and even though I got it two weeks after LOVE day, I still LOVE my box. Except one thing...take a guess...

This month my Glossybox came with a little surprise... A broken nail polish! It was a full sized Lauren b nail polish in the color "City of Angels" valued at $18.
It didn't ruin everything, thankfully.  I emailed Glossybox so hopefully they will send me another since I was really looking forward to that polish. 
I got one item different from what I've seen on other blogs...they got a truffle serum and I am so glad I got something different to try because a friend game me the same thing from her Birchbox last month! Instead I got Renu Lip and Eye Active Lift. It was a delux sample and again, I hope this helps my under eye area. 
I also got a pack of "Puffy the Eye Bag Slayer" patches.. A set of three!  Can't wait to try these.  I hate my under eye area. This is a full size item, valued at $11.
Next is a Sumita gel eyeliner. You can see the swatches in this pic as well.  Love this eyeliner! So easy to apply and does not go anywhere after it sets.  This is another full sized product valued at $15.

The last item this month is Pureology Serious Colour Care "Colour Fanatic" treatment spray. This was a deluxe sample. I love Pureology, so I'm sure this product will be great too. 

Even though the box had a broken nail polish, I still loved it! I think the biggest bummer for me was that the box itself was ruined! I love those pretty pretty boxes! I'll let you know what they say about the broken polish.
