GlossyBox Review September 2013

Technically my September GlossyBox arrived on October 1st - but no complaints here. This month's box is great! (If you are new to GlossyBox, it's a monthly beauty and makeup subscription. They're on the pricier side of beauty subscription boxes, but they always send out deluxe and full size products!)

GlossyBox Review September 2013

The Box: GLOSSYBOX

The Cost: $21 a month (save more with 3-month, 6-month or annual subscription!)

The Products: Deluxe and full size beauty products.

Check out all of my GlossyBox reviews and the list of the best beauty and makeup subscription boxes!

GlossyBox Review September 2013

Each GlossyBox comes with a card detailing every item included for that month.

GlossyBox Review September 2013

Emite Makeup Eyelash Curler - Value $30.50

I haven't used an eyelash curler in years, but I think I'm going to try it again. This definitely is a well-made curler and I like it comes with backup pieces!

GlossyBox Review September 2013

Oceane Makeup Remover Pen - Value $5.30

This will be perfect for eyeliner slip ups!

GlossyBox Review September 2013

BCBG Max Azria Bon Genre Eau De Parfum - Travel Size (.33 oz) Value $11

Be A Bombshell Cosmetics Eyeliner Pen in Onyx - FULL SIZE! Value $14

Normally perfume samples are my least favorite part of subscription boxes, but I love that GlossyBox included a full travel size spray of this BCBG scent. It will last me a while! (Plus I love that it's a spray and not a roll-on!)

GlossyBox Review September 2013

Nioxin Diamax Hair Treatment - FULL SIZE! Value $50

This treatment is supposed to make your hair thicker and stronger - and it gets great reviews on Ulta so I can't wait to try it!

Verdict: I love the September GlossyBox - I'll use every item in the box, and the value is great too (Over $100!) What did you think of GlossyBox this month?

I actually tried the eyelash curler…it worked! I think this was a really good box, at least for me, and I haven’t tried it all yet. I don’t wear perfume so I’ll be giving it as prizes or stocking stuffers:))

YESSSSS!! I’ve been wanting to try this Diamax for so long, but it’s been too pricey for me to give it a test run. Now I can finally try it! I’ve been using it for the past two days and there’s a HUGE difference in my hair. My hair is so fine and limp and blah, but this stuff really does give it some oomph!

I’ve been desperately needing a new eyelash curler, too.

Loved this box!

I received this box almost 2 weeks ago and am not thrilled. I like the eyeliner, but the perfume is nasty (although my daughter likes it), and the last thing anyone in my family needs is thicker hair. The lash curler and make-up remover will probably be used so I did get my money’s worth.

LOVED IT! I got mine last week and have already used both the Nioxin and Bombshell eyeliner. The Nioxin has a great light texture and the smell is fresh. I’ve been dying to get a liquid eyeliner in any box subscribe to and GB found an awesome one! I love the big felt tip. I’ll probably end up buying the full size since its so inexpensive. GB has been my fave box for the past couple of months.

I’m a little sad that i decided to cancel last month & not get this one 🙁 BUT with Glossybox disappointing me lately i didnt have a choice… shame

Ditto. I cancelled a couple months ago after many many months of disappointment with many aspects of the service. This is the first month I wish I’d stuck it out. Ah well!

I had cancelled Glossybox, since I already get Wantable and Lip Factory (and I adore them both). Then I decided to do a just-one-more-month! switcheroo and resubscribed. Thank goodness! There was nothing about this box I didn’t love (apart from it being so late)! I had been listing Tools as “Love” on Wantable for months in the hopes of getting a good eyelash curler and lo! Glossybox to the rescue! I’m already a big fan of Nioxin and have the Bombshell eyeliner in plum from Lip Factory, so I was thrilled to get black too.

The best part, though, is the thing that made me say “meh”: the perfume. I hate perfume. I occasionally spritz some Demeter Beeswax scent, but on the whole, it’s not my thing. The perfume that came this month, though, is heavenly. I sprayed in on my collarbone so I could smell it better. 🙂

Also, my 9-year-old wanted to try mascara. That makeup remover was a godsend!

I absolutely LOVED this month’s box!! This was my last month of it for a while and of course they send out my favorite box yet!!!! I am so excited to use the hair treatment, the eyelash curler is fancy, the perfume smells amazing, I was just SO HAPPY with the box!! Way to go Glossybox this month!!! : )
Although I have paused this subscription along with my other beauty ones because I just found that I have too many samples and beauty supplies for right now, this was my absolute favorite box to get! Full size items by great brands 🙂
