After receiving 8 out of the 12 boxes (I made an annual subscription), I think it is about time to give an overview of the boxes. This may help some of you decide on whether you may want to try out Glamabox, while at the same time help myself out with answering 'should I renew my subscription?'
April 2013
Can I say I'm really excited as well as quite disappointed with this month's box? I am over the moon when I see the three good size skin care samples, and one full size moisturiser. However, I am not that happy with the Chicken Essence. Not a fan of grocery in a beauty box. Boo.
Box content: Dr. Cell All in One Face Gel ($250, 50g) is the full size gem of this box. I have had their cleanser in previous boxes but it is too basic to win my love. This gel has Coenzyme Q10, Collagen hyaluronic acid, amino acids and more. I tried it on and it felt very soothing and moisturising. The second thing that definitely caught my eye is the Ren Mayblossom T-Zone Control Cleansing Gel ($330, 150ml). Countless times I have heard the UK ladies glorifying this brand, first time I've ever encountered a sample myself! This is perfect for the current weather as the pollution and humidity is causing my pores to congest, esp. around the nose and chin. It has an amazing natural floral aroma and runny gel texture. Just give a mild foam, and rinse off easily, leaving skin soft as baby bottom! :D The other two skin care pieces I have not yet tried, but will very soon do. O'slee Honey Sugar Mask ($98, 100ml) is a fresh lemon honey scented sugar scrub/mask. It can be used on wet or dry skin, interesting! b-liv by Cellnique Off With Those Heads Blackheads Sebum Gel ($490, 45ml) is a treatment gel with Tea Tree Oil, Peppermint Oil, Aloe and Witch Hazel. Finally, the item that is now living in my fridge and does not interest me at all is called Yuantsuei Essence of Chicken ($310, 7 packs/box). Never been a fan of chicken essence since forever...
Worth: $250 + $11 + $10 + $33 + $44 = $348
Overall: Pretending I do not see the chicken essence, this is a Hurray box to me.
