Topbox April 2013

For this month's Topbox I was lucky enough to receive the Elizabeth Arden's Prevage PriveBox!

Inside contains:
PREVAGE Anti-aging + Intensive Repair Daily Serum
Flawless Finish Sponge-on Cream Makeup
Beautiful Color Lash Enhancing Mascara
All Gone Eye and Lip Makeup Remover

Overall very satisfy with this month's box! I am looking forward to give it a try on the Prevage serum and the flawless finish cream.

I already gave a try on makeup remover. I liked how it is an oil based remover which can easily remove my waterproof mascara. So thumbs up for that!

April 2012 GlossyBox

This month I didn't really have a lot of high hopes towards what's within the box...
I was somewhat annoyed that the box arrived late AGAIN. I understand they've just launched but its important that they send their products to customers on time!

So here are the products for this month *drum roll*:
1. Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer
2. Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gel (got it in Apricot scent)
3. Wella Brilliance Conditioner Fine to Normal
4. Wella Brilliance Treatment Fine to Normal
5. Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara
Bonus: Marcelle BB Cream Beauty Balm











The first item that I saw when I open the box was the AVEENO daily moisturizer, I literately couldn't help myself from frowning and saying "AGAIN!?" out loud. I mean, I don't have high hopes for this month's box but minimum I was hoping for more alternatives to try out different products from different brands...

I just wish they won't out put so much hair products into the box.. since I can't really use most of them with my sensitive scalp.. more make up products would be nice for a change!

April Haul


Beauty Blender 
After reading all the raves, I can't help but to give it a try! 


Whitening Lighting
I've always been bothered that my teeth is a bit yellow since I love drinking coffee! 
This product seems more simple than white stripes so we'll see how it goes.


Maybelline Instant Age Rewind (Light)
Laura Mercier Concealer (#2)
Color Tattoo Eyeshadow (Bad to the Bronze)


Swatches
Maybelline, Laura Mercier, Color Tattoo

The Laura Mercier Concealer looks very orange in the swatch, but it blends nicely onto the under eye area. The texture is very creamy and less drying than the Bobbi Brown Concealer. I used to really enjoy the Bobbi Brown Concealer, but recently it hasn't been working out!


Stila Eyeliner (Topaz)
Perfect colour for the bottom waterline.


Sephora Airbrush & Mineral Brush

I have been using the Sephora Airbrush for liquid foundation. It gives a nice smooth finish and the foundation is less likely to look cakey. 



Have you tried any of these products?

April 2012 Glymm Box



I'm still not impressed with the Glymm Box so far. I guess it's hard to like every single item, since it's not personally matched. This month's box was more for hair and body?

Products:

  • LUCIA - Soap No6. Wild Ginger & Fresh Fig Soap
The soap gave this box an overall nice scent, which is a plus. =P Unfortunately, I'm not a fan of bar soaps, so I won't be trying it. 
  • ATELIER COLOGNE - Orange Sanguine Fragrance
I hate this kind of packaging for fragrance samples. It's so hard to open and I don't like the scent getting on my fingers (which it did).... The fragrance is as the name says, orange! It is a nice scent, but I personally wouldn't wear it. It's basically the orange smell you get on your fingers after you've peeled an orange!
  • FREE YOUR MANE - Sulfate Free Hydrating Shampoo & Conditioner
I'm excited to try this shampoo and conditioner out since it's sulfate free. I'm quite sensitive to shampoos now, where I easily get itchy scalps if I use the wrong ones. Will update later once I've tried it out. 
  • MAI COUTURE - Social Gloss (G'Vinity)
A pearly-light beige sparkly lip gloss? Don't have the urge to try it yet though... 
  • NUME - $100 Gift Certificate
I have a hair straightener and hair dryer from them, and so far so good. Excited to put this to good use later on!

Let me know how you liked the April Gymm Box!
