MARCH GLOSSYBOX 2013 CANADA

THIS WILL BE MY SECOND LAST GLOSSYBOX BECAUSE I HAVE CANCELLED MY SUBSCRIPTION. YAY! :D

This month is a good box month! :) 

MODELCO CHEEK AND LIP TINT IN TOSY RED 

FULL SIZE 10ML/$24.00 

Delivers perfect amount of sheer colour for naturally flushed 'just pinched' cheeks and a sexy pout. 

JERGENS NATURAL GLOW 3 DAYS TO GLOW MOISTURIZER 

FULL SIZE 120ML/$12.99

It says no odour but there is DEFS some kind of lotion smell to it and tbh, I don't really do self tanning things because I'm pretty tanned already...  

TRESEMME KERATIN SMOOTH HEAT PROTECTION SINE SPRAY. 

FULL SIZE $5.99

I hope that this will be a good product and I can't believe I just got a protection spray and found my old one. Hope this is a good product. All the salon ladies say that tresemme stuff is crap and I don't blame them but at the same time, they just want to sell their own salon products. 

BM BEAUTY PLATINUM TIARA EYE SHADOW 

2G/$10.80 

I don't like powery eyeshadow. I mean it's a nice colour and all but I just don't do mineral products because they get EVERYHWERE and I can never use it up because they will not be used up... EVER. 

L'OREAL PARIS YOUTH CODE SERUM INTENSE 

I don't know if I was suppose to receive 4 samples in my box but there were 4 which was really odd to me. I don't think that GLOSSYBOX should be sending us a lot of youth products because I'm pretty sure that the subscribers wouldn't be that old. If they are, they should already know how to take care of their skin... or what not. 

I THINK THAT THIS WAS A GREAT GLOSSYBOX FILLED WITH A LOT OF GOOD FULL SIZED PRODUCTS.

UPDATE ON BEAUY BOX SUBSCRIPTIONS

SO........... I realize that I was spending way too much money on makeup and subscription boxes so I have decided to cancel the one and for all. They are pretty expensive considering what I get compared to what I ACTUALLY use from the boxes. I think that I'm just going to spend all that money on actual things I NEED and what I like and will actually use!

I used to be subscribed to GLYMM but they're not that good with the samples and I don't blame them, I just didn't want to waste unwanted products and money!

I just cancelled both IPSY and GLOSSYBOXES because I felt that they were both getting a bit much and that I hardly used any of the samples so what's the point? I can't just blog about beauty boxes all day right? I want to expand my blogging information to everyday, and life stories not just subscription boxes.

My last IPSY/MYGLAM bag will be March's and my final box for GLOSSYBOX will be April's because I will have enough points for a free box! :)

I can now sponsor a child in need or save the money for something else now! I'm actually quite happy with my decision!

GLOSSYBOX FEBRUARY 2013 (CANADA)

HELLO GLOSSIES! LOL I SOUND LIKE THEIR FACEBOOK GROUP! :P

IT'S TIME FOR THE BIRTHDAY BOXXXXXXXXX!!!!!! :D

THE CUTEST BOX YET! :) 

01 GIVENCHY GLOSS INTERDIT N0.3 GORAL FRENZY 
A high-performance lipgloss with light, smooth texture that brings shine and definition to your pout.
Deluxe Size 3.5mL - $17.00 

I love anything coral and this gloss goes on so nice! I wish it wasn't so expensive and is sold at stores near me, I'd totally pick this up! :)

02 ESSENCE QUATTRO EYESHADOW 
Take your look from office-chic to evening ready with four complimentary colors.
Full Size - $3.99 

These swatches took 3 tries to get this pigmented and even then it's not at all pigmented. 

This quad is actually HORRIBLE I guess you pay for what you get. The color payoff is really bad and it does not stay on. I rather pay less for Wet n' Wild shadows. Those ARE AMAZING! Essence is just a really cheap brand and the stuff is cheap.

03 BIORE DEEP CLEANSING PORE STRIPS - ULTRA 
These pore strips, enriched with invigorating tea tree oil and witch hazel, lock onto and remove deep-down dirt.
Full Size - $9.99

I love these pore strips! And they are full sized! I almost used up mine from my last box and can't wait to use these up too! They are just FABULOUS!!! 

04 MACADAMIA NATURAL OIL HEALING OIL TREATMENT 
A weightless, therapeutic treatment for all hair types that adds moisture and nutrients for shine and increased manageability, while providing UV protection.
Deluxe Size - $13.50 

Can't wait to use this because I've heard so many good review about the Macadamia line! :) 

05 ANATOMICALS YOU NEED A BLOOMING SHOWER! ROSE AND JASMINE BODY CLEANSER 
This rose and jasmine body cleanser makes every shower a flower-power experience
Full Size - $3.00

This smells GREAT! I can't wait to shower myself with this! And I love the packaging! I am such a sucker for packaging! :$


SAMPLES 

Last but not least 
GLOSSYBOX CUPCAKE KIT 

Can't wait to bake CUPCAKES!!! :) 

I am not affiliated I just love getting my box every month and sharing it! :)

C'YA WOULDN'T WANT TO BE YOU! UNLESS IF YOUR'E SUPER COOL THAN CAN I BE YOU? :$

JANUARY GLOSSYBOX 2013 CANADA

SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE ON THE JANUARY GLOSSYBOX.

I feel like I only blog when I'm bored so I guess I'm super bored right now! :P jkkk 

So here are all the contents! :) 

I have misplaced the letter where it says all the prices and descriptions so I'm just going to show you some photos! LOOOL :D

Wella Brilliance Mousse 

Full Size 

I hate how this mousse is for colored hair because that is something I don't have. It's still nice to try a professional hair styling mousse. :) 

Curel Hand Cuticle Therapy 

FULL SIZE

I didn't appreciate the fact that I have already received this in a previous box and I didn't even like it the first time. I really wished that GlossyBox put a track on the products that give out to make sure that they don't give out the same products twice. 

NIVEA 

Essential Lip Balm 

FULL SIZE 

I really dislike this lip balm. I've had this before and it is just too oily for me. It does do a good job moisturizing my lips but it's just too much. I prefer the EOS lip balls or the But's bees lip balms. Really disliked this. 

BEAUTY SO CLEAN 

Cosmetic wipes. 

Sample SIZE. 

TOO FACED 

LIP INJECTION EXTREME 

TINY SIZE. 

This made my lips sting a little. It was a weird feeling and I don't need my lips to be that plumped even though I don't have Angelina Jolie lips and I am totally fine with that! :P 

If anyone wants to get a GlossyBox, click HERE!  

That's all folks!!!!!!!! 

LATER 

-LeenieXD 

I Have SO Much More! :D

So I haven't been a good little blogger in writing everything but I will be on break very soon and am planning to blog down my January Glossybox items and February Ipsy bag items as well. I was also thinking of doing a TheBalm Haul/Review and also Elizabeth Arden Haul/Review. I have some lush products so I might blog about that as well. I will also put up some of my photos and things like that soon. I love sharing, but sometimes it's just really hard to find time and write it down! :)

December GlossyBox 2012 (Canada)

This was my glossybox for the month of December! :)
Enjoy!

This month sent me a gray box and I'm liking it! LOL
The theme for this month's box was LOULOU as in the magazine. So here's all the things that LOULOU magazine thinks we should have for the new year! :P

Here's what I got! 

TRESEMME FRESH START VOLUMIZING DRY SHAMPOO
161g/$5.99

I got the deluxe size my my box which was 56g. It's nice for traveling or you can even bring it in your purse or have it with you at school. I personally really like the smell of it but not the way it applies. I guess nothing is really better than washing your own hair. If you're like me and have curly hair, this is good because it will hold you over until your next wash.

AVEENO POSITIVELY AGELESS DAY SPF 30 

FULL SIZE 

75ml/$25.99 

I think that Aveeno has great products but to be honest, I'm not that old. I will someday but right now I just don't need any aging products. But this does have SPF which is great because the sun is really harmful to the skin. I will probably use it up as though it is a pretty nice moisturizer and hey I should take care of my skin while I'm young before it all goes downhill... 

AVEENO POSITIVELY AGELESS TINTED MOISTURIZER (LIGHT-MEDIUM) SPF30 

FULL SIZE 

50mL/ $25.99 

Wow this is a really expensive tinted moisturizer for a drugstore brand but non the less it was nice to get it in this month's box. I don't wear heavy foundation so it's really nice that they gave is tinted moisturizers instead. I think that everyone got the same shade which is fine for my skintone but what about others to have either lighter or darker skin tones? Hmmm there's a question for you GlossyBox! 

AVON 

ASSORTED SEE WWW.AVON.CA 

SUPERSHOCK VIVD LIQUID EYESHADOW IN CHARMED 

BOY WAS I EVER SHOCKED! I think that everyone had issues with the avon products in this month's GlossyBox. I for one am really disgusted at the fact that this eye shadow was liquid like water liquid. When I went to pick it up again the other day the water and the shadow was completely separated like a bad chemistry experiment.  Seriously, what is up with that? 

The brown part and the water was separated which means this product is probably really old. 

REVLON NAIL ENAMEL 

FULL SIZE

15mL/$5.99

COLOUR: 507 FIRE FOX 

I love getting nail polish in my boxes. I like the fact that this nail polish was matte. The thing with matte nail polishes is that they probably need a top coat but this one could sit on itself without anything. Perfect red carpet red if you ask me! ;)

                                    

GLOSSYBOX LASHES 

FLL SIZE 

$12.50/PAIR 

I think the price is just for show. Honestly, Ardell or any other brand lashes are way cheaper and better quality than these ones. I like lashes so I'm not going to complain! It even comes with glue! 

BONUS ITEM 

TRESEMME SPLIT REMEDY SACHET 

Again, I'm not a fan or little packages of shampoo but I'll try if it makes my hair healthier and split end free. I'll just take it to the gym or something. It sure saves room. 

There you have it folks! :)

November 2012 Glossybox Canada

These are all the goodies I got in my November Glossybox! Enjoy! :)

This month was to get us ready for Christmas! YAY! 

1. NICOLE BY OPI KARDASHIAN KOLOR HOLIDAY SHADES

FULL SIZE 15ML/$10.99 

My shade was in Kardashian Through The Snow! (Clever) 

2. KRYOLAN FOR GLOSSYBOX BLUSHER IN GLOSSY PINK 

FULL SIZE 2.5G/$16.73 

This blush felt really nice and silky when on the skin and the colour does pay off. Being the blush junkie that I am I love any kind of blush and in any colour. This was really rich in colour and it was a nice MATTE bubblegum pink shade which made the product a whole lot better. To be honest, I don't it's worth the price on the cover but it is a nice product none the less. 

3. NEXXUS SALON HAIR CARE: HYDRATION KIT 

DULEX SAMPLES 

I'm sure they are just trying to throw us something to complete their box. I personally don't like to get samples of shampoos and conditioners because I'm sure all of us have our own kind of favourite shampoo. However, these are nice to have when travelling or going to the gym! 

4. VITABATH - 20% SHEA BUTTER HAND CREME 

FULL SIZE 120G $15.00-$18.00

Why does the Glossybox people think that we are always in constant need of hand creams? Seriously, can't they find something better to give us because these creams are getting too old...

5. MAYBELLINE MNY MY GLOSS IN COLOUR 185 

FULL SIZE 9ML/$7.49

No way in hell am I going to buy this tiny little gloss for 7 dollars at the store. I didn't even know that Maybelline had a MNY line. There are just so many nicer glosses out there that this one kind of seem pointless to buy. On a bright side, it is small enough just to through it in a purse or something! 

Special Gift #1: CUREL HAND AND CUTICLE THERAPY CREAM 

FULL SIZE 100ML/$3.99

Like I said before. Too many creams over these past Glossyboxes...

Hope you enjoyed this!

Glossybox October 2012 Canada

My GlossyBox just arrived and I'm so happy to share it with you all! :D

So here's what I got in mine! Make sure to leave a comment or concern in the comment box so I know what everyone else got. Being SUPER nosy, I love to be in the know! ;)

This month's box was suppose to be $21.00 but because I was already a member I only had to pay the regular, but next month I will have to pay the $21.00! T.T

Overview

First Item 

JOURVIANCE REJUVENATING ANTI-AGING CREAM COMBINATION TO OILY SKIN TREATMENT
Description - Extremely luxurious face cream, gently formulated to hydrate and increase the firmness of your skin.
50ml/$93.50 <-- :o=":o" nbsp="nbsp" p="p">
Impression
First of all, I AM 18 YEARS OLD! :O What the hell is Glossybox thinking with this product this month? I'm pretty sure that I don't need anti-aging stuff right now because my skin is still at it's prime! I don't have the best skin, but come'on... and the price! :O I would not pay almost $100 for this stuff. I mean I wouldn't even pay that much to buy it for my mom. My mom's creams go up to $60.00 MAX and she buys them from department stores. Tsk Tsk glossy box... but only for this item! ;)

Deluxe Size 5mL

Second Item 

MODELCO FLIPSTICK LIP DUO 

Description - SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss can be worn alone or layered over LIPSTICK Lip Couture for hours of unbeatable shine in a shade of perfect October Pink! 

Special Edition: For GLOSSYBOX members only! $38.75

Impression

I don't like the colour very much. It's kinda coffee brownish colour which doesn't really go with my skin tone... The lipstick is in colour DUSK and the lipgloss is in colour STRIPTEASE (haha sounds like NARS names! ;) ) It has a cute little mirror but you can't even use it during the process of application so what good does it do? IDK!!! Oh don't get my started with the price. 40?!?!?!?! Are you crazy? Who would buy this? Not me... I rather spend my money on a cute YSL or Chanel lipstick if I had the choice...no offence or anything. 

Left: LipGloss; Right: Lipstick

Third Item 

ZOYA 

Description - We hand-picked four of the prettiest pinks to represent the diverse women affected by breast cancer all over the world. TOXIN FREE! FULL SIZE! 

15mL/$8.00 

Impression 

Full size nail polish, ZOYA, PINK! What could be better? So happy to get ZOYA nail polishes because I don't think that I can get them near me unless if I go over to good'old America!
I got the colour RORY! Super cute and super sparkly! :D Kinda like my other nail polish that two months ago called ZaZu or something... 

Forth Item 

SEBASTIAN PROFESSIONAL TRILLIANCE SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER 

Description - Cleanses and polishes the hair surface to enable greater light reflection, creating goegeous natural shine. 

Shampoo: 250mL/$15.79 

Conditioner: 250mL/$16.59 

Impression 

I HATE getting shampoo and conditioner sets in these kind of boxes. I feel like they are so useless because I never use them unless I'm going on vacation or bring them to the gym. It's okay because it's a nice professional brand and my hair dresser says that I need to use more expensive things.. Those money sucking machines I tell ya... 

Item Five 

GILLETTE VENUS 

Description - Venus & Olay: Boost your shave and help lock-in skin's moisture with the top-of-the-line in disposable razors! FULL SIZE! 

$16.99

Impression

I love this. It couldn't hurt for a girl to have a nice working razor! This is really expensive too so I'm glad that I got it in this month's box! I love anything that gives moisture so this works out well :D 

OVERALL

Didn't enjoy this box as much as my other ones but it will do for now. I really wish I got more makeup products because I love makeup, NO MORE LIP PRODUCTS! lol I hope that next month's box will amuse me more because I am paying $21.00 for it! :(
