Emite Make Up Diamond Heart

Emite Make Up Diamond Heart

This was the spoiler of the January Glossybox! I like this Emite Make Up Diamond Heart tons! Although I would think with the slight tint, the company should hop on the BB/CC bandwagon for marketing purposes because if it does more than one thing then it should apply for the double letters club. And the timing the month before Valentine’s Day for a “Diamond Heart” was genius.

I see many of a lady leaving this in plain view for their partner to not get the hint lol.

417 Foot Nourishing Cream

417 Foot Nourishing Cream

It might not give me succulent feet but it works pretty well. Does not smell like mint but still gives the minty tingly feeling. I think its the arnica that gives the tingly feeling. I cannot figure out the scent maybe a light citrus floral? The ingredients list in the back is in a small tiny tiny tiny font. The website link has some sexy lady all ready. She must have succulent feet. I am too intimidated to hit the play button.

Tingly feet are happy feet.

MeMeMe Lip Glide in Playful Peach

MeMeMe Lip Glide in Playful Peach

Pretty apricot lippie in a crayon form. This will be given to Subista, a lover of crayon lippies. I find everything about the above product plays on words a little spicy!

The model in the 417 Foot Nourishing Cream video seams to have this lippie.

For a good time, use MeMeMe Lip Glide in Playful Peach in conjunction with 417 Foot Nourishing Cream!

Royal Apothic Cream Creme To Go in Cutting Garden

Royal Apothic Cream Creme To Go in Cutting Garden

I have no clue why I love packaging that can eventually leak if not cared for. Maybe it is because I am used to having my Pnut people leak stuff. Maybe because if it is wet, my Pnut people can find a way to make it leak no matter how “leak-proof”. I digress. I am further confused why marketers want to market metal tubes “to go”. Anyways, I like this it gives me that creamy sink-in feeling when applied.

This garden will cut you?!? We have gone from playful play of words to threatening?

Beautiful Nutrition Lemon Rinse Gentle Clarifying Treatment

Beautiful Nutrition Lemon Rinse Gentle Clarifying Treatment

Ok I have not tried this but I am looking forward to see if a clarifying, sulfate-free use-after-shampoo-and-conditioner works for me! I love my hair squeaky! And I LOVE the lemon scent. I like the scent of lemons, lemons in my water, but not in my food…

When a sub box gives you lemons, you squeeze them and apply to wet shampooed and conditioned hair!

Glossybox – January 2016 Group Shot All Together Now!

Verdict: I am loving my first Glossybox! The box is substantial and is everything everyone said it would be. I love ALL the products everything was in good healthy sizes. Note that there are variations to Glossybox so you may not receive the same box I did. I am looking forward to next month!

    I’m considering this box, but I think I’ll have to wait after my year of BB is up. I like the cream creme packaging as well!

      This is my first month of Glossy and my third (non-consecutive) year of BB. I had a Glossy voucher so I signed up for January because the only thing that wowed me about December was the box! BB may be hard to give up with the free shipping with other ACE perks.

    Great review! I love Royal Apothic’s packaging.

      I do not understand why we are so practical with most of our stuff but fall for not-so-ideal packaging at times!

    Every time I see a review of Glossybox I think I want it. Then I remember that I did get it. I ordered a special edition from them last year and never received it (their customer service was great though and I received a refund within 24 hours of contacting them) and got two boxes from them that I used nothing from. Maybe I just received boxes in off months?

      Was it the Holiday? I almost caved I love the NUXE oil but fought the urge…
