Glossy Box | March 2013

This months glossy came a little later as a result of the Easter weekend, but when it did I was not left disappointed. Five products came in this months box with the theme of metropolitan chic: Get back into the spring of things. Each product has the aim of getting you ready for spring! Oh, and Four of the Five products were FULL SIZE! 

Model Co Cheek & Lip tint in Rosy Red: Tints are the perfect product for summer as they are lightweight and don't melt off your face in the summer heat. The Model Co tint in Rosy Red is perfect for me as a lip tint,, as I prefer a little bit of a darker lip. Check out the swatches below!

Jergens Natural Glow Moisturizer: I was really excited when I saw this, as I am in need of a self tanner for the summer, and I love the gradual moisturizer ones. I used this straight after my shower that night. It made my skin so soft and the smell was amazing. The packaging says low oder, but there is a scent, and its the perfect scent for summer. Fresh with a bit of sweetness. Im exciting to keep using this and will probably buy the full size after I run out.

TRESemme Platinum Strength Deep Conditioning Treatment: To be honest, I thought this was just a regular conditioner at first, A product I don't use often as my hair is quite healthy already and I find whenever I do use conditioner it just makes my fine hair look really greasy. With that being said, I was going to use it for my dog. Of course I read more about it, and noticed that it was a treatment and used it the night I received the box. I concentrated it on the ends and worked whatever was left over throughout the rest of my head. My hair is so soft after using it, But like I said with the conditioner, my hair just doesn't look its cleanest. Thats probably only because of my hair type, but this is definitely a product I will use whenever my hair needs a little more moisture.

L'Oreal Youth Code Serum: This is another product I tried right away. I've been wanting to try a new serum for awhile now. What better chance to try one then now. This one is very lightweight and fast absorbing, it says to reduce dark spots and even skin tone. It's because of that I'm exciting to keep using it. This product and the four mentioned above are all FULL SIZE!

BM Platinum Tiara Eye Shadow: This, like the eye shadow quad that came with last months box probably won't get a lot of use out of me. 

Swatches of the Cheek & Lip tint, a product I can see myself using throughout spring/summer, The eye shadow swatch, which i think would make a good bronze highlight throughout summer.

Glossy Box| February 2013

As promised (better late than never right?) here is my first Glossy Box unboxing post!!
This month we were celebrating Glossy Box Canada's first birthday! Exciting right. With that being said, I have heard quite a bit of negativity towards this box compared to the one from the UK for example. Now, I don't know if it's because this is a "birthday celebratory box" or what, but I was quite happy with it. Now time to share what cam in this months glossy box:

Glossy Anniversary Cupcake Set: I love this, I like that its super cute and perfect for decorating my upcoming easter treat boxes I plan on making for a few friends.

Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips: Now, I'm not one who usually gets blackhead. That being said, I still love these strips. I put them on for the recommended 10 minutes and take it of and my nose feels so smooth. As my nose is usually exceptionally dry, I just feel like they just pull away all the dryness. Im also really happy that I got these it a full size package and they're sold for a pretty high price in my local store, and the last time i bought them the pack of six contained on 2!!! It was just my luck that I didn't notice until weeks later. Sigh.

Anatomicals Rose and Jasmine Body Cleanser: This was another full size item, and I have yet to try it. When I first saw it, I was pretty turned of with it being rose scented. As soon as I smelled it though, It was amazing! Its like the sickly scent of rose, sweetened with the scent of jasmine. I love it, and can't wait to use it!

Eucerine Hyal-Urea Anti Wrinkle Day and Night Creme: This is another thing I have yet to try. I'll probably save it for a trip or something as its packaged in little sachets.

Macadamia Healing Oil Treatment: To be honest, despite all the amazing things I've heard about this brand, I'm pretty nervous to try it. 1) I have pretty fine-oily hair, and don't want to make that worse 
2) My hairs not really damaged in any way. Let me know your thoughts on it down in the comments, should I just go for it and only put a little on my ends??

Crabtree & Evelyn Tarocco Orange hand therapy: I'm not going to lie, I was so excited when I saw this. Just the week before I was looking into ordering some Crabtree & Evelyn online. I've yet to try it. But goodness, if I like it, you know I will be buying some more.

Essence Quattro eyeshadow in Chic-ify: To be honest, I'm not usually one to wear eyeshadow. This is mainly because I can hardly see out of my right eye, so doing anything to my left eye is near impossible. The colours are really nice and we'll see what I can do with it. Here's a close up anyways

Elite Models Intensity Eye Pencil in Black: Again I wasn't as excited about this as I was with the other items. I used it the other day though, and I think I'm excited. This is a waterproof eyeliner, which is great for my watery eyes. I have pretty sensitive eyes, so for the first little bit after putting on any eye makeup my eyes get really watery (mascara is the worst). Like I said though, I used this the other day, It lasted all day and even though it is a black mascara it really made my dark eyes stand out. When usually whenever I put on any eyeliner I end up look like some no-eyed panda...thing. Anyways, I love this stuff and It may become a part of my everyday.
