June Glossybox Canada

Hey Everyone! So yesterday evening my Glossybox came in the mail and I decided I would do an unboxing for you. Sadly because of siblings maxing out the internet I can only do a blog post for you and no video. But don't fret I'll explain everything for you.

If you are new to Glossybox, Glossybox is an online subscription that you sign up for and each month they send you a box filled with beauty goodies. If you are a product junkie this is the perfect thing for you. It is only $15 (Canadian) and the boxes are worth a lot more than you pay. So far my boxes sit around the $50-$60 mark which is an amazing value. If you would like to sign up please click here.

Now into the box!

This month's box contained some exciting stuff, but I don't think it was my favourite box so far. However, the products I did get are amazing and I am NOT at all disappointed. Below will be a list of the products and a bit about what they are, and my thoughts on them.

Bioré 4-in-1Revitalizing Cleanser - this is a cleanser that also acts as a make-up remover which I think is really neat. This product is a full-size product and retails for $9.99. I gave this product a try last night and the only complaint I have is it smells very chemically which I don't find appealing, but I will give it a go.

Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 55 - I have been using Neutrogena sunscreen on my face for as long as I can remember. However I don't tend to be using it lately because the tinted moisturizer I use has an SPF in it. So I decided to give this to my mother. A full size of this product retails for $15.99.

Wella Professionals Ocean Spritz - Wella is a brand that has shown up a lot in the beauty boxes, which I don't mind since I like their products. I tried to give this a try but I need to spend more time on it since my hair is very short, it can get a little less sexy-beach and a little more electrical shock, which isn't ideal. This product is full-size and retails for $16.99.

Olay Regenerist Wrinkle Revolution Complex - this is a wrinkle cream to reduce fine lines as to hydrate the skin. Being 21, I don't really need an anti-aging product so I gave this to my mother as well. A full-size of this product retails for $30.99.

Covergirl Flipstick Blendable Lip Duo - this product has one end that is a shimmer and one that is a colour so that you can blend it together to create many different lip looks. I got the shade 800 Whisper, which is a gorgeous pink colour (see swatch above). This is a full-size product that retails for $12.50.

Gillette Venus Embrace Razor - I love Venus razors, the only problem I have with them is the price. The refills get quite expensive, which isn't ideal when you are on a budget. So this little razor was a nice treat for me. This is a full-size product and retails for $13.43.

Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips - Sally did a review on these a little bit ago, and I haven't used them in a long time so this will be a nice treat. This was a bonus item in the box and those are always nice little surprises that Glossybox puts in their boxes. A full-size of this product retails for $9.99.

Well there you have it. The box is definitely worth every penny, and each time you get one it is almost like a little present each month. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone!

April Glossybox - Canada

So it's that time again! Glossybox time! I cannot tell you how impressed I am with this team. I have been doing a lot of research about other boxes and even people's general review on customer service and I want to send a huge hurray for Glossybox. Sure, they have the odd complaint but they handle it beautifully and I think that says a lot about a company. They're also always chatting with fans and beauty conasours. I often strike up a conversation with them and they're amazing to deal with. I believe that customer service often can enhance a product huge! Now onto the actual product review!

1. Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer - This is a full sized product and I could not be happier! I have always been a HUGE fan of Aveeno but often I can be a little cheap and end up not buying it because of it's cost. The product retails for $22.99 and they include a full size bottle in the box. Since the box is only $15 it's already worth it. Now for the actual cream, I adore it, doesn't break me out and evens out my skin tone which is something I yearn for.

2. Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gel - Another full size product retailing for $20. I have never used this shower gel before and I got the scent Golden Angel, which is slightly stronger than I normally wear but it has a nice floral scent that I will definitely be trying tonight!

3. Wella Brilliance Conditioner Fine to Normal - This conditioner smells absolutely amazing. And from the card it says it contains diamond dust for an incredible shine. I have fine hair and it is also coloured and I am very excited to give this conditioner a try. A full bottle retails for about $13.99 and the sample looks like I could get 2-3 washes out of it, keep in mind my hair just got past my ears in length so if you have longer hair, you might go through it quicker.

4. Wella Brilliance Treatment Fine to Normal - About 9 months ago I chopped off all my hair because I killed it from too much colouring and heat styling (I will be doing a hair story soon) so I am a huge fan of these sorts of products. I am constantly trying to find a new treatment to keep my hair healthy. Again I think I might be able to get about 2-3 treatments done and a full bottle retails for $13.99. If it does a good job, I am definitely purchasing a full size bottle.

5. Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara - Ironically I ran out of mascara this morning so this is perfect timing! In my review for "Benefit They're Real" I said I wasn't too fussy with mascaras and that still holds true. I tested this one and it does lengthen and adds volume so it's job is done, and I find the formula doesn't clump too easily, which I enjoy. Again another full size product which is amazing and it retails for $12.50 in store, which is a reasonable price for mascara.

Bonus - As a little bonus they threw in a sample of Marcelle BB Cream Beauty Balm, I think it'll be a 1 or maybe 2 time use but I am excited to use it since I have hopped on the BB Cream bandwagon. This retails at $22.95 so a little more expensive than Garnier but if I feel like I like it a lot better I may consider switching. All in all a nice little bonus.

My final verdict is... this box was pretty awesome and I am extremely excited about it. It is definitely well worth its $15 since 3 of the products make it already a $55 dollar box... how insane is that!?
