Glossybox August 2017 Review

The August box is a nice month of beauty to stay cool through summer.

If you are addicted to beauty products, then meeting up with a great beauty subscription box is the way to go.  One in particular that I happen to love is Glossybox that features at least five full and larger sample sizes of luxury brands of skin, body and hair care, makeup, nails, etc. in each pink box for just $21 a month and free USA shipping.  This box also arrives with an info sheet about the products and any special deals with a coupon code.

Stay cool happens to be the theme of Glossybox August 2017 with beauty geared to refreshing your total summer look.  Before I share what my box brought, I want to remind you that Glossybox sends different variations so what I got may not necessarily be what you will receive.  Some products will be the same in all boxes, but a few may change.  Here’s what my latest box contained below.

The Pixi by Petra Brow Tamer offers mild control to keep brows in line.  Ever since I had my brows professionally done through electrolysis, I don’t need the same maintenance as before. I have one misbehaving hair on one brow that does bother me so I do like a clear gel like this to control it.   

The Douccee x Glossybox Freematic Blush sent was to complete the July duo palette.  I received Vintage Mauve, which is ideal with my fair to light, warm coloring. I wear a lot of mauves!  It packs a lot of mostly matte pigment with a slight shimmer. 

The Beautiful Nutrition Lemon Rinse Gentle Clarifying Treatment is a product that I used before.  I like to use it before coloring my hair to make sure all styling products are gone.

I was excited to get the new Lancome Paris Monsieur Big Mascara that was released.  I had been wanting to try this one and was debating whether to buy it when I found it in this box. This sample size is perfect because it can travel well when I pack my bag for vacation.

Sesha Skin Therapy Botanical Hydro Mask has skin nourishing botanicals such as cucumber, aloe and plenty of hyaluronic acid to restore and rejuvenate a sun-abused complexion.  I don’t worship the sun now that I know the dangers it can cause. Still, I have a dry complexion that always needs a moisture boost. After I applied this mask to my clean face, I left it on and relaxed for about thirty minutes.  Once I took it off and rinsed, my face felt ever so soft and pampered.

The Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash is a lemon-scented cleanser that dissolves grime and makeup with rose hip extract, milk thistle and chamomile before rinsing away with water. It is supposed to have exfoliating action as well. Judging by the feel, it is a very gentle type of abrasion that is hard to detect.  Yet, it is great for sensitive skin like mine and cleans the face well.

The value of this month may have been less than a few past boxes, but it was still a pleasing box with outstanding products!  Have you tried Glossybox yet?  Check them out!
