GlossyBox - January
This January the theme for Glossy Box was 'World of Beauty' and in Canada that theme is COLD. So they chose their favorite moisturizing products of last year to feature in this box.
Wella Professionals
Brilliance Leave-in Mousse
(full size)
Another box, another
wella product... Who uses mousse anyways
these days? I have no idea what the
point of this mousse is. It is designed
for coloured hair, but there are no detangling properties, and unless there is
SPF in it for the sun what is the point?
Will this mousse actually extend the life of my hair colour…doubt
it. Boring!
Too Faced Lip
Injection Extreme (teeny tiny)
A lip plumping serum
designed to stimulate blood flow to promote fullness. It does tingle upon application, but is
totally bearable and gave my lips a healthy, rosy colour. Light smell that reminded me of strawberries
and although it felt like my lips might be the size of Angelina’s, I quickly was
brought back to reality when I looked in the mirror. However, blushster also tried this and had a terrible reaction to her lips and hand area where she applied. Needed the cortisone to calm it down but all is good. Use with caution!
Burt’s Bees Naturally
Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion 25g
With 99% natural
ingredients this is a lightweight body lotion with milk to nourish and honey to
soften the skin. I unfortunately am not
crazy about the smell on my skin - more like sour milk on me, but it did do a great job at keeping me
moisturized.
Nivea Essential Lip
Care (full size 4.8g)
Jojoba oil and Shea
Butter provides long lasting care and protects the lips from drying out. I am a chap stick addict and like Nivea lip
care products a lot. I own a few different
ones and this one will definitely get used.
Beauty so Clean
Cosmetic Sanitizing Wipes – 12 packs
Convenient cosmetic
wipes that are effective for sanitizing makeup that accumulates visible debris
like dust, lint and food particles. I
love these wipes, and have been using them religiously. I love a little swipe over blushes,
eyeshadows, liners or lipsticks. Easy to
use and helps prevent bacterial contamination.
Every makeup lover should have these!
Vitabath Hand Crème –
Fresh Citrus Twist 60g
Blushster received
this in last month’s box, so maybe trying to get rid of stock? This is a 20% shea butter hand cream with
coconut, sunflower and sweet almond oil.
A light citrus scent that lasted all of two seconds. Left my hands feeling soft but greasy so this
will have to go in my nightstand for strictly a nighttime use.
Luckily, I have enough points in my glossy account for a complimentary box or sad to say this might be my last one.
