Glossybox Canada review

Hello lovelies,

This past weekend I was sent a glossybox to review from Vervegirl and glossybox. I was so excited because the box was just so pretty, I could not wait to open it.

If any of you are not sure what glossybox is, it as a monthly beauty box subscription. Every month you get sent new deluxe samples (and sometimes full sizes) from different makeup and beauty brands. The subscription is $21 a month and it is a great way to try out new products that you have never seen before or have been eyeing with uncertainty.

Now on to what was in my box. I got the February/Anniversary box and I love everything from the packaging to what was inside. When you open it there is a box inside of your box that has all of the goodies and they are both so pretty. When you open the second box there is a cute box and glossy sticker keeping everything from popping out.

The first thing I saw was a little card with a description and retail price for everything in the box. They also included a coupon promo code for a Canadian lingerie company globlove. I checked out their website and they have some gorgeous pieces.

Now to go down the list...
1. Elite models intensity eye pencil. Retail price $14.99
This is a full sized water proof eyeliner and the application (just from swatching) is so soft and smooth, I cant

wait to try it.

2. Essence quattro eyeshadow. Retail pruce $3.99
This is another full sized product. The colours are really pretty, but you for sure need a primer or base under these colours.

3.Bioré deep cleansing pore strips-ultra. Retail price 6/$9.99 -full size
I tried these out with my boyfriend and they really work to get out all the gunk off your nose!

4. Macadamia natural oil healing oil treatment. Retail price 30ml/$13.50.
I was so excited when I saw this in my box. I used it in the shower with my conditioning treatment and I also mixed it with my argan oil after I dryed my hair. It is definitely weightless just as it claims and it smells so good.

5. Anatomicals you need a blooming shower! Rose and Jasmine body cleanser-Full size. Retail price 150ml/$3.00.This shower gel literally smells like fresh cut roses. It is so soothing I love it and need to find it in stores!!

6. Eucerin hyal-urea anti-wrinkle day/night cream sachet duo. Retail price 50ml/ $18.50. I tried the night cream so far for under my eyes and it is so moisturizing. So far I really like it.

7. Crabtree and Evelyn tarocco orange eucalyptus & sage ultra-moisturizing hand therapy sachet. Retail price 25g/$8.00. This I have yet to try but can't wait.

8. Glossybox cupcake kit. This was a special edition item added to help celebrate glossybox's 1 year anniversary in Canada. I thought it was too cute and I have been itching to make cupcakes, ever since I got these.

In total not including the samples this box is worth a whopping $45.50 and the box itself only costs a total of $21. I am most definitely impressed and would recommend glossybox to anyone and everyone who loves makeup and beauty. Every month the products and brands are different, so you will always be surprised and find something that you like.
