UPDATE - January Glossybox Swatches

 3 of the possible 6 lipstick/stain/gloss for January's box.


Top - Tarte Glamazon Lipstick in Fierce
Middle - Vincent Longo Lipstain in Americana
Bottom - Vincent Longo Lipstain in Belle Etoile


Fierce is a super pigmented bright red color.
Americana is a brick red color - more pigmented than a typical stain.
Belle Etoile is a burgundy red stain. 

I love all 3!

Glossybox - January

A lot of members are really pissed off @ GB. It took them nearly a month to get January's box sent. I got lucky as some member's box just shipped. Yikes! GB partnered w/ The Man Repeller (fashion blogger). GB promised that we would get either a Tarte Glamazon Lipstick or Vincent Longo Lipstain. Some people got cheek stain instead. I'm thinking they promoted January's box so heavily that they ran out of lipsticks/stain.


I am loving the silver celestial packaging.




Box Contents:
Estee Lauder - Sumptous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara
Fresh - Umbrian Mattifying Serum
Le Metier De Beaute - Replenishing Daily Solution
Living Proof - Prime Style Extender
Narciso Rodriguez Perfume Spray
OPI - Can't Let Go Liquid Sand Lacquer - Full Size
Vincent Longo - Lip Stain in Belle Etoile - Full Size



I am trading the Living Proof style extender & Fresh serum for Tarte's Glamazon lipstick in  fierce. I've heard nothing but good things about Living Proof's style extender. The polish is gorgeous! I'm looking forward to trying the mascara & daily solution. A full size of the solution is $225 - I hope I don't like it! I'm sticking it out w/ GB for one reason - Illamasqua. My favorite brand & it's been in 2 boxes so far. 


My favorites. The lipstain retails for $23. That alone pays for the box!
My lipstain is in Belle Etoile - it's described as a sheer burgundy.
I will post swatches soon. I have fierce & another lipstain in Americana coming through trades.

Goodies - January

Finally! Nearly all my January subs came late - I am so impatient!

The theme of his months box is New Year New You. It's packed w/ sensible snacks & treats.


Box Contents
Nature's Bakery - Raspberry Whole Wheat Fig Bar
Stretch Island Fruit Chews in Berry
Go Nola in Wild Blueberry Wave
Skeeter Snacks Cookie in Chocolate3
Wild Garden - Hummus & Pita Chips
Cascal - Berry Cassis Natural Soft Drink
Falafel- Spicy Falafel Chips

Another great box! I've tried Nature's Bakery bars before - they are so good. Raspberry is my favorite. The Stretch Island chews are delicious. I would totally buy these. The Go Nola is also really good. It's pretty low in sugar (always a bonus). I've also tried Skeeter Snacks in another sub. Unfortunately, it was in crumbs. Good crumbs though. Hubby polished off the hummus (I'm not a fan). The falafel chips are super spicy. I couldn't eat it. Hubby also scored on this one. And finally, the natural soda from Cascal. It's the only thing I haven't tried it. I keep forgetting about it.

For $7 a month, you get 7 different goodies. You can sign up here. There is a 30-60 day waiting list.
It's worth the wait :)
