The November 2012 edition of GlossyBox Canada was filled with goodies to get us ready for the Holidays Season. And once again, Glossy included Golden Ticket items to a lucky few - unfortunately, it wasn't me. The box seemed rather bland, and not as exciting as I was hoping it would be, is it really worth the $21? The price increase made me unsubscribe for the next few months until I decide if I'd like to continue. November did not feel 'deluxe' to me at all.

November Box:
Nicole by OPI Kardashian Kolor Holiday Shades / Full size / $10.99
Kryolan For GlossyBox Blusher in Glossy Pink / Full size / $16.73

There was also Glossy Magazine, but unfortunately, there is very little value in it.

Grade: C+

Have you received GlossyBox Canada November 2012? Feel free to leave a comment below.

The Canadian edition of GlossyBox October was dedicated towards Breast Cancer awareness month. This month, 50 lucky Glossies received a golden ticket item - a piece of jewelry! Unfortunately, I wasn't one of the winners. Were you?

Overall, I would give this box a B+. This lipstick due is a handy tool to have and is Australian. I love trying new international brands. Although, we've already had something very similar - a lipstick/lipbalm duo. In October's box we received 3 full sized items, which makes our $15 investment kind of worth it.
Unfortunately, next month the price will go up...and becoming a whooping $21 monthly fee! Have you cancelled your subscription because of the fee? I'm certainly thinking about it. Lamenting.

This month's worth is approximately $75, mainly because the lipstick itself is $40.

Full List:

• Jouviance Rejuvenating Anti-Aging Cream Normal to Dry Skin Treatment / Extremely luxurious face cream, gently formulated to hydrate and increase the firmness of your skin. 
• Modelco Flipstick Lip Duo / in Dusk Lipstick and Striptease Gloss / Shine Ultra Lip Gloss can be worn alone or layered over Lipstick Lip couture for hours of unbeatable shine / FULL SIZE / $38.75
• Zoya Nail Polish / in Rory / FULL SIZE / $8.00 / Toxin Free
• Sebastian Professional Trilliance Shampoo & Conditioner /  Cleanses and polished the hair surface to enable greater light reflection, creating gorgeous natural shine.
• Gilette Venus / Venus & Olay / FULL SIZE / $16.99

Another great box. It will be hard to say good-bye. Let's hope that the price increase will guarantee some amazing products. I heard the U.S. box while being more expensive, even had a Burberry lipstick!

GlossyBox September edition arrived on time, weighed a lot, and looked superb! I've been more than happy with the September's box. In Canada, the monthly price for GlossyBox is $15. So far, it's been worth it. The highlight of this box, is most definitely NYX the Crimson Amulet Set palette inspired by Dark Shadows. The palette is actually great for everyday use as it has many neutral shadows. I'm definitely in love. This is my first ever NYX palette and I'm looking forward to using it. I have heard many great things about NYX, and most recently, purchased their popular HD foundation. No complaints there! I hope to create a few interesting looks soon. As for the rest of the box, it wasn't as exciting. Most of us received a Wella hair product, nonetheless, I quite like Wella products, however, they've been appearing in the GlossyBox a bit too often. What do you think?

The July GlossyBox Canada was disappointing. The products did not seem high end at all - in fact, most of the brands can be found in Superstore, London Drugs or Shoppers Drug Mart at a discounted/sale price. So, in a way, this wasn't much of a deal nor was it exciting. The approximate value of this box is $25. This must've been the weakest month yet. I really hope to see a better selection next month.

Ah, the excitement! The May Edition of Glossy Box was yet another exciting surprise. The amount of products received was exceptionally generous, included was a big 250ml shampoo by Sebastian that smells absolutely amazing and left my hair incredibly bouncy.

The GlossyBox team did not disappoint! The products will definitely make me feel clean and refreshed. And I was definitely in need of a makeup remover.

PRODUCT LIST:

• Curel Foot Cream / Significantly improves the look and feel of even the driest heels and feet / $3.99
• Simple Kind to the Eyes Eye makeup remover / sample size at 56ml worth $3
• Simple Facial Wash Gel / 50ml sample worth $3
• boxx Cosmetics Cream Corrector in Melina / full size for $24
• Sebastian Professional Volupt Shampoo / full size at 250ml for $15.78

Overall, this box cost me $15, but worth approximately $50.

I am looking forward to next month!

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.
