Glossybox December

Not bad!

Anatomicals - You need a Blooming Shower Deluxe Sample

Hubbster uses so much shower gel - I'm grateful to have this so he will stay away from my beloved stash of handmade soaps! I hate floral scents but this one actually smells pretty good. A decent size too. 

Michael Todd - Pumpkin Mask Deluxe Sample

I've been wanting to try this since Ipsy had these in their bags. I wasn't able to get anyone to trade w/ me. So excited to try it! I love masks, I love pumpkin. It should be awesome sauce.

Naobay - Oxgenating Cream Deluxe Sample

Another freakin' moisturizer. I'm all moisturized out. My mom groaned when I told her I have another moisturizer for her :D

Ardency Inn - Punker World's Baddest Eyeliner Full Size

If only it was purple! But that's ok. My mom loves these marker style eyeliners so it's going to her. I never wear black eyeliner - I need color!

Nails Inc - Victoria Full Size

A deep cherry red - a perfect undie for my indies!!

I'm diggin' this box. Something for me, hubbster & my mom. 

Glossybox - November

This month's theme is Holiday Romance. Its supposed to be about matte skin and bold eyes and lips. Not seeing bold lips at all in this box!

Sulwhasoo - Concentrated Ginseng Cream

"Formulated w/ the roots, berries, and water of rare 5 year old Korean ginseng, this corrective treatment stimulates cell regenration by penetrating the deepest layers of skin to revitalize & ultimately restore youthful looking skin from within."  So what does it do? I have no idea but the container is super cute. Deluxe sample .17oz

The Aloe Source - Jojoba Radiance Cleansing Polish

"This multi-tasking sulfate-free cleanser effectively removes makeup, oil and impurities. It gently exfoliates w/ a combo of jojoba microbeads and alpha & beta hydroxy acids, while nourishing aloe vera soothes skin for a healthy, radiant glow. It sounds awesome but I am overflowing in cleansers. It may go up on ebay. Deluxe Sample 1oz

Emite Makeup - Micronized Eye Shadow in Dams

"Create the ultimate smokey eye w/ this highly pigmented eyeshadow. The micronized formula assures a fine, smooth and even application and Avoids grainy reults for a stunning romantic look. Can be used wet & dry." Black eyeshadow? Boring! A bold color would have been better. Full Size $27

Nicka K - New York Professional Eyeshadow Brush

"Effortlessly apply your eyeshadow w/ this ergonomically designed brush. Each lightweight brush is specially crafted w/ quality pony hair & designed w/ easy handling in mind, resulting in precise & flawless application of makeup". I'm usually excited about makeup brushes - you can never have too many. Except in this case, I do. I already have 3 brushes exactly like this one. Bummer. Full Size $5

Mastey - Color Protecting Leave-In Oil Treatment

"This leave-in oil treatment is a combination of certified argan oil from Morocco, olive oil & grape seed extract. These three ingredients in combo w/ Mastey's vegetable based moisturizing factor, rice amino acids for reconstruction  and Vitmins E & B5, make it the perfect solution for damaged & color treated hair. Honestly, I'm sick of hair oils - I have way too many. Full Size 2oz

This box doesn't suck but it's pretty boring. 

Did you get November's box? What do you think?

Glossybox $21 monthly

Loose Button - Fall - USA

Loose Button is the leading beauty sub in Canada. Recently, they opened up subscriptions for the US. I signed up for the fall season & received my fall box last week.

Its $26 a season. You receive 7-8 samples per box. You have to request an invite to join. https://www.loosebutton.com/LuxeBox

A beautiful presentation. Everything came wrapped in silk.

 

A nice touch! Almost looks like a menu

 

I was able to request a fragrance free box. These were supposed to be shipped off early September but didn't ship out until last week. I signed up late so I didn't mind waiting but others signed up late July. I was happy they shipped from the US. I was wondering how long we would have to wait if they were shipped from Canada.

I just can't escape this freakin' razor. 3rd one so far! What annoys me is that Walmart gave these out for free. This is the 2nd beauty sub that I have paid for & got the same exact razor. I normally would have been excited about the liner but I am swimming in it right now. I'm going to tuck the nail polish strips in my moms Christmas presents. I don't really like the nail polish color but I'm going to trade it for the balm's Mary-Lou Manizer. I LOVE the actual box itself but its not worth $26! Not a horrible box but I won't be getting another one. It just didn't blow me away. I'm still figuring out the total value so I will update that ASAP. What do you think? Worth $26?
