GlossyBox - The Man Repeller box - January 2013

This months GlossyBox is a special themed, The Man Repeller's Winter survival kit.  I expected to open the shipping box and see the usual pink box, but this month's is a silver glossy box.


Inside was 7 products instead of the usual 5.  There are 2 full-sized (well almost, the tarte cheek tint is .14oz, full size is .19oz), 3 luxury sized samples and 2 smaller samples.


I will review some of the products individually in the coming week, so check back.


Estee Lauder - Sumptous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara
Fresh - Umbrian Clay Mattifying Serum
Le Metier De Beaute - Replenishing Daily Serum
Narciso Rodriguez - For Her
OPI - "Can't Let Go" Liquid Sand Nail Lacquer (Full Size)
Sebastian Professional - Potion 9
tarte - Achiote cheek tint (almost full size) this is a pre-release product due out in March 2013

You can click on this photo to enlarge for details of each product.

This is one of many beauty/nail boxes I receive each month.  I have to say I thoroughly enjoy it most months. Sometimes if I receive a product that I already have or things I normally don't use, then it can be a little disappointing, but that happens very seldom.  I just love the thrill of opening them each month.  Last month I bought 2 because they ran some specials.  This month I will receive 2 again, one that I bought and one to review. I forgot and didn't cancel in time, but maybe there will be different items in the 2nd one, if not...I feel a giveaway coming up.

If you would like to subscribe to GlossyBox it is $21 per month, 3 months for $60 or 12 months for $220.  What are your thoughts on subscribing to beauty boxes?

    It makes me sick at the garbage we get in our Canadian glossybox when I see posts like this. :( If you're interested I'll have my Canadian glossybox up on my blog sometime next week...as I'm STILL waiting for my January box which was just shipped yesterday.

    I always end up with too many blushes and masks every month. Plus, what's the deal with all the blushes? They last foreverrrrr and I frequently use lip products on my cheeks anyway!

Dior Psychedelic Orange Review - Dior Day Blogger Linkup

Image
Hi Everyone! I am back to blogging finally!  Thanks for all your patience through a very rough time in my life.  Back in July 2013, I flew to Las Vegas for Cosmoprof North America.  One of my favorite things to do after the show was to go shopping at The Forums Shops At Caesars .  One of the first shops I went into was Dior, I was hooked immediately.  I did not have any Dior Beauty products so I purchased my first polish, Psychedelic Orange and a lip pencil to match.  Since then, my Dior collection has increased by 2 or 3 more polishes and a Gel Top Coat which I love! I chose today to finally show you this polish because a group of bloggers are linking together for Dior Day Blogger Linkup.  Psychedelic Orange is almost a jellish cream polish.  I used 3 coats above and you can still see a little VNL, but this doesn't bother me one bit.  Even though it didn't need it I did top it with one coat of the Dior Gel Coat, which is my favorite top coat...

Nfu-Oh Aqua Base...Worth it? Necessary?

Image
Tonight I was doing swatches of some holographic polishes that I haven't tried yet. Nfu-Oh's, Essences from Europe and BK's from Hong Kong. And the question that keeps coming up, is the Nfu-Oh Aqua Base really necessary? Isn't there a cheaper easier to access brand available? I've seen this asked more than anything else recently and it even came up in our Nail Polish and Gossip Group on Facebook. I'm going to let you answer this question for yourself, here are pictures I took, all using Nfu-Oh #66 Green Holographic polish. On the first picture, on my thumb, middle and pinky finger, I used the Nfu-Oh Aqua base coat, on the ring and pointer finger I used another well known brand of base coat. This is one coat of polish and I didn't clean up since I was taking it right back off. You can click the pictures to enlarge. I only used one coat, I didn't want to waste any more of this beautiful polish, but you can tell it does not play well with...
