july glossy box

a year ago i thought id never make a post about any form of clothes or products, it just wasn't something i would do. i've changed my opinion... i actually thoroughly enjoy reading posts about beauty products people have used and their opinions on whether they loved or hated them, just as i love reading about books others have read.
i got my first glossybox in the mail today and the only reason i actually ordered one is because i've read about it in many of the blogs i read weekly. if you have never heard of glossybox, it is a little box of beauty products (usually around 5) sent each month to your door in a cute light pink box. its $15 a month and contents can be anything from hair products to foot cream and from nail polish to facial cleanser. each subscriber makes a beauty profile and glossybox sends products based on these profiles. i opened mine as soon as i got home from work and i was impressed with everything i got for the $15.

the july glossy box contained:

1. Zoya Nail Polish -the colour is called reagan, its a deep fuchsia pink and supposably has a subtle blue undertone -  valued at $8.00
2. Alessandro International -  pedix heel rescue balm -  this just came as a sample size so im unsure of the retail value of this
3. John Frieda go blonder spray - this im excited for! you just spray it on and it is supposed to lighten the blonde.. cheaper than the hair salon! -  this is full size and valued at $13.99
4. Burts Bees lip shimmer -  i love burts bees products - valued at $5.99
5. Dove softening creme body wash -  i just like most body washes as long as it doesn't have a really harsh sent. i find dove usually has a very subtle fragrance - full size and valued at $5.99
6. Beautysoclean sanitizer wipes -  these are different, apparently it is like hand sanitizer but for your makeup. strange concept - it came with a sample of about 4 wipes


total value was about $34.00 + the sample size products i didn't add.
from what i've read about glossy box, boxes usually range from $30 in value to even around $60! for paying only $15 dollars a month, either is impressive.
