Glossybox is a beauty subscription box, and each month, a box with a few beauty and skin-care sample items arrives in the post. Sometimes full size items are included, and this month's box had two full-size products. These were a Burt's Bees Lip Shine (gloss) and a Lollipops brand eye pencil. Every subscriber got each of these items in their box, along with extra samples.
My box arrived early last week, and I received the following items:
Lollipops Make Up Eye Pencil (in black): This black eye pencil is easy to blend, and I really enjoyed using this product. The product is inside a plastic casing, so no pencil sharpener is required. The product blended well and it has become by favourite eye pencil. I would purchase it again.
Burt's Bees Lip Shine (in Smooch): This berry shade is perfect, and when I saw the spoiler a few weeks ago that each subscriber would get one of these lip shines in a different colour, I hoped for this berry shade. This is another great product, and it kept my lips hydrated. It was also not too sticky. I would purchase this product.
H2O+ Face Oasis Hydrating Treatment: This gel is to be massaged onto the face as a mask, and it is meant to reduce fine lines. Luckily, I do not have fine lines yet, so I cannot see if it does what it claims. However, the product does not feel greasy and is absorbed into the skin. I also tried putting it into the fridge to cool it, as directed, and this cooling felt nice on my skin.
MONU Skincare refining capri facial oil: This product claims to decongest pores to prevent acne. I've been using it for a few days now, and it does leave my skin feeling hydrated and perhaps cleaner.
OGX Argan Oil Shampoo: Subscribers either received this in shampoo or conditioner, and I received the shampoo. Argan oil seems to be used in many beauty products these days; I saw the Argan nuts and trees on a visit to Morocco a few years ago and the oil is used to make spreads and dipping sauces as well as used to aid the body's skin and hair. This product smelled nice, but I was not overwhelmed. Also, it left my hair looking shiny but greasy (in my opinion) in the first couple of uses. This lasted me over two weeks, and it grew on me. I did not need conditioner with it, and it add luster to my hair.
