Unboxing: Glossybox September 2013


This month's Glossybox theme was "All You Need For Fall" and it came with a nice arrangement of must-have products. I was quite happy to see that this Glossybox came with quite a few full size products, in fact all except for one is full sized. The box includes a thickening hair product, eyelash curler, eyeliner marker, makeup remover pen, and a perfume. I have to say I'm actually very happy with this month's box, which has been a rarity with Glossybox as of late. I keep giving them a chance because I really love the brand and the idea of the brand, thankfully this month it's good- so onto the products received:

BCBGMAXAZRIA Bon Genre Eau De Parfum
 
^Full Size: $75.00 / 3.4 oz
Seductive, mysterious, and intriguing, BCBGMAXAZRIA Bon Genre is a statement-making fragrance inspired by the effortlessly cool sensibility of the urban rocker woman.
-This is not a full size product, yet it is the BEST sample size I have ever received and the scent is beyond beautiful- it's light, airy, fresh, and yet still sensual. The notes are litchi and red berries spiced with black pepper and refreshed with bergamot, a blend of black jasmine, tuberose, tiger orchid and cardamom, hot amber, Australian sandalwood, patchouli and black vanilla. It's really just a beautiful scent.

Be A Bombshell Eyeliner Pen in Onyx
Full Size: $14.99 / .11 oz
Master your cat-eye look with a flick of this easy-to-use eyeliner pen. The marker-like tip is easy to use and goes on smoothly for precise definition while the long-lasting, water resistant formula ensures your makeup stays fresh throughout the day.
-I'm pretty sure this is a full sized product. I'm not usually a fan of these fat eyeliner pens, because I feel like they're isn't much precision to them and they usually seem really dry too. This one does have a nice tip and good color payoff, but I'm not too keen on using this. This thing is full of parabens. I counted 5 different kinds in the ingredient list, so no thank you I will pass on this liner.

Emite Makeup Eyelash Curler
Full Size $30.50
Accentuate your eyes this Fall with impeccably curled lashes! This eyelash curler has a special curved design that angles to suit all eye shapes and curls without disturbing the makeup underneath. Your eye lashes will remain in perfect shape all day.
-This is of course full size and it came with three replacement curler cushions as well. This eyelash curler is hands down the best I have ever tried! It fit my eye so perfectly, didn't pinch, didn't ruin my eye liner, and gave a gorgeous long lasting curl. This product alone cost more than what I paid for my glossybox and made the whole box well worth it. This is for sure a new part of my daily makeup routine.

Nioxin Diamax Treatment
Full Size $50.00 / 3.4OZ
To achieve a fuller looking head of hair this fall, look no further then Nioxin Diamax. This treatment increases the thickness of the hair shaft and strengthens hair against breakage, which makes hair fuller and more manageable.
-This is a full size product. I have not used this product yet, but I am super excited to. While in hair school I had plenty of guests who swore by the Nioxin brand so I'm hoping for great things,

Oceane Makeup Remover Pen
Full Size $5.30 / 3 ML
The tip of the pen contains an odorless liquid makeup remover that does not dry out the skin. It is perfect for removing excess, makeup during application (for example, while perfecting a cat-eye) or touch-ups during the day.
-This is a full size product. I haven't tried this product out yet, but I'm hoping it is better than the other products like this I've tried. Usually these things are so dry and don't do much but smudge the makeup around. However, if this does work it would seriously be awesome to clean up eyeliner with. Also I love that it comes with three replacent heads, because they tend to get dirty rather quick.
