Glossy Box Canada / June Edition


Summer is officially here! And so is the June edition of Glossy Box Canada. Ah, the box was incredibly heavy. I was very excited to open it - and it did not disappoint. Every month so far has been good - with an array of products from many different brands. The one brand that is often in every box is definitely Wella, but this brand produces high quality products. So far, we've been receiving either Wella or Sebastian, and both worked wonderfully on my thick, unmanageable hair. If you haven't tried Glossy Box, try it here.

April Edition Glossy Box Canada / Spring has sprung!



Wow! Another amazing box from Glossy Box Canada. In the April edition, I've received samples from respected brands, and of high quality products, with many being full-sized. If you haven't tried a sampling service like Glossy Box Canada, you should definitely try it now.

In April's box, I have received these wonderful products:
  • Full size: Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer - $22.99
  • Full size: Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gel - $20.00
  • Well Brilliance Conditioner Fine to Normal
  • Wella Brilliance Treatment Fine to Normal
  • Full size: Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara - $12.50
  • Bonus: Marcelle BB Cream Beauty Balm

The Aveeno moisturizer is quite good, and I've used it many times before - it's an excellent choice for the box! Elizabeth Grant shower gel also looks amazing - and I can't wait to try it. It's foamy, with a delightful fragrance that captures style in every person. Wow.

I have never tried Wella products, so, that will be fun. I definitely love trying new hair products. The Wella Brilliance line contains diamond dust! Will my hair shine?

The Marcelle mascara is NEW and meant to give your lashes extra length and curl. Marcelle is a Canadian company with a good reputation and excellent, high quality products. I am sure that I will not be disappointed.

Overall, this box gets an A! It came with a variety of products from skincare and hair to makeup. It really is almost perfect.

GlossyBox Canada / March Edition

It's finally here! GlossyBox Canada March box arrived in a sturdy, high-quality, perfectly designed package. This is my first month trying out the subscription service, and I must say, I am already impressed with their branding, design, and overall, great quality for as little as $15 / a month.

This little surprise brightened my otherwise mediocre day! Inside the box was a variety of products ranging from skincare to hair products and makeup.



PRODUCT LIST:

  • Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion 
  • BAILEY Cosmetics Duo Foundation Powder in Golden / full size at $40
  • Evian Brumisateur Facial Spray / 50ml at $7.00
  • Pandora's Blush in St.Tropez / full size at $18
  • Sebastian Re-Shaper Hairspray
  • Little extra: Algemarin Foam Bath
 Overall, the value of the box is over $70, so it was definitely worth it.



GlossyBox is a subscription based beauty sampling service. The company is international, with service available in many countries across Europe, and now Canada is included. You should try.

It's well branded and carefully curated to appeal to any woman out there. The samples provided are generously sized and will last me for a months if not longer. Many are full sizes and most importantly, are high-quality.  I am intrigued by the Pandora's Makeup Box promotion that was also a part of the box. A 40% off discount for Glossy clients. This is a great deal , and perhaps I will check out Pandora's website!

I'd like to point out that there was a teenie problem, and that is the foundation is much too dark for my skin-tone. It could be my own fault as I didn't fill out the beauty profile and did not specify the shade of my skin. The sample I've received would be useful in summer time or be used as a bronzer.

Otherwise, this box is definitely the best I've had in awhile, although, I also like Glymm Box ( you can find it throughout my blog). GlossyBox did  not disappoint and was worth the wait.
