"March" Glossybox (first one!!)

My first Glossybox arrived only an hour ago, and I couldn't wait to see what I got. It was a much anticipated wait since there was a custom problem on their end. It was so worth it!!

"Spring Forward" feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. 5x5ml/$3.99, 500ml/$17.99, 750ml/$23.95, sample size 15ml/$0.48

Total value of box: $58.74

So far Glossybox is off to a great start, I'm in love with this box. 
  • I needed both foam bath and a new blush. 
  • I currently use/love Sebastian Hair spray, so it's great that I can carry it around with me now!!  
  • The gloss is a little dark for my taste, but I think once the summer hits and I get a nice tan going I'll enjoy it more. 
  • The face spray felt great, it was a little tingly at first and now my face feels super hydrated. 


Thank you Glossybox for the great box. Although they are a couple dollars more than their competitors ($15/mnth), the difference in size and quality is huge! I'm soo happy.

Magic Fini - M.Asam BB cream




I received this in my March Glymm box and from the very second I felt the texture I knew it was a done deal.
Although it doesn’t say it’s a BB cream, it is. For those of you who don’t know what a BB cream is, it’s “Blemish Balm”. It eliminates steps from your usual make-up routine, working as a primer, foundation as well as refining your pores and adding tons of moister! It literally feels like silk and gives such an even tone to your whole face.

After a couple of days of using it I decided I needed to do some hunting and found it for a reasonable price at www.cosmolaneboutique.com (full price $38). I found it for $19.99 + $5.00 shipping, and it only took a few days to get to me. I believe it is back to full price but they do have other products half price, so if you’re in love with the sample you received in your box then keep an eye out on Cosmolane Boutique.  They also sent me samples which included a firming face mask, anti-wrinkle eye cream, & sample container (same size as Glymm box) of perfect teint.

If you have really sensitive skin and/or large pores like I do, I highly recommend!!
