Glossy Box March Edition

Posted on by Cindy

 I was pleasantly surprised when my Glossy Box came in before it was suppose to. I honestly wasn’t expecting it until April according to the Canada Post tracking info I received. None the less I was happy.

I am always excited when Glossy Box comes in each month because I find they tend to be consistent in what they send each month in regards to full size products and the content.

I often wonder if I should continue my subscription and wonder if I always get my month’s worth out of the box and I have to say that I always get items that I might not normally buy on my own but I want to use so for now I think I am going to continue with my subscription.

The first item I pulled out of the box this month was:

 Jergens Natural Glow 3 Days to Glow Moisturizer. I like that this is in my shade Light to Medium and this leads to me think that they do read our profiles. Its a moisturzier that will allow you to look one shade darker in three days. I think this would be great to use as it gets wamer and you start taking off the layers. This is a full size item, its 120ml for $12.99

 Modelco Cheek + Lip Tint in Rosy Red. This is actually going to be my beef of the month. When I opened this it said that it delivers a perfect amount of sheer color for a naturally flushed “just pinched” cheeks and a sexy pout. Well when I tried this out it stained my finger red and it was too dark on my lips. Not sure I would use this on my cheeks. Another think that is part of my beef is that they said its a full size item 10ml for $24.00 I honestly don’t think my tube has 10 ml of product in it and if it is they why send out a huge tube for such a small sample.

 TRESemme Platinum Strength Deep Conditioning Treatment. This is suppose to reinforce hair’s naturally protective layer and restore the beauty of your hair and protect it against future damage. Its suppose to repair up to two years of damage in 5 uses. I have to say I am pretty thankfully with my hair because no matter what I have done to my hair (permed a few times back in the day and dye it constantly) it is always healthy.  This is a full size item, 177ml for $5.99

 BM (Beautiful Movements) Beauty Platinum Tiara Eye Shadow . This is 100% natural mineral eye shadow that is cruelty free and BUAV approved (Vegan) its a sparkling grey. I haven’t opened it yet as I honestly  have way to may shadows open but it looks like it would be a nice color. This isn’t a full size item since its only 1g ($5.40) and the full size is 2g for $10.80

 
Finally the last item out of the box is this:
 


L’Oreal Paris Youth Code Dark Spot Corrector Serum. This will fade dark spots giving you a even luminous skin. This is a full size item 30ml for $29.99 As I was reading the packaging it says for best results use with other Youth Code products. Is it just me or does this annoy anyone else? I hate when they do this.
 
As you can see the box did pay for itself $78.37 but I feel as though I would end up spending more just because of the Youth Code. I like to have all the products to get a feel for them so I am not sure what I will do with the Youth code. Perhaps I will wait and check out the sales or winners to see if they carry this.
 
What do you think of the box this month?
