April Glossybox Review

I received my Glossybox this morning so I haven't had a chance to test out each of the products just yet. This will be a quick review on the contents of the box and I will do individual product reviews as I use them in the next week or so.

First off, I wanted to say how impressed I was by this month's box. It was nicely packaged as usual and packed full of products I knew I would be using.

April Glossybox Contents

As you can see, there are quite a few good sized products which is great because it lets you test the product multiple times to get a more accurate review. I received three full sized products! I was pretty excited to say the least...

Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer

Aveeno Daily Moisturizer

Glossybox says: This amazing moisturizing formula is clinically shown to improve the look of tone, texture, dullness, blotchiness and brown spots - for naturally radiant skin.

I love Aveeno body lotion but have never tried their facial moisturizer so I am looking forward to seeing if it works as great as their body lotion does for me. This is something that I would have picked up to try for myself if I had seen it in stores so I was glad to see it in my box. This was a full size product and the value for the 120ml is $22.99.

Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gel

Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gel

Glossybox says: Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gels are delightful fragrant cleansing gels, which foam as you clean. Capturing the true essence of grace, style and individuality in every person.

This is another full size product (and what made the box heavy). I haven't tried it yet but it smells sooo good! At times it reminded me of fuzzy peaches (the candy lol). The full size of 240ml is $20.

Wella Brilliance Conditioner & Treatment Fine to Normal Hair

Wella Brilliance Conditioner & Treatment

Conditioner:

Glossybox says: This lightweight Brilliance conditioner moisturizes coloured hair, leaving even fine hair full of vibrant shine and free-flowing movement. With diamond dust!

Treatment:

Glossybox says: Brilliance's Treatment with triple-blend technology blends three lightweight polymers to instantly restore hair's vibrancy, ...and you guessed it: with diamond dust!

This is a brand I haven't heard of or used so I am looking forward to seeing if this diamond dust is as cool as it sounds like! I like hair treatment products because the tips of my hair are quite damaged and I am looking for something that will help keep it hydrated. I will keep you updated on whether this product works or not. The full size products are as follows: Conditioner 250ml for $13.99, sample for $1.68; Treatment 150ml for $13.99, sample for $2.33.

Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara

Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara

Glossybox says: New! Give your lashes extra length and curl with Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara. Define and separate lashes while minimizing clumps and create maximum lengthening potential for a lash extension look without adding extensions.

I didn't open this package because I won't be using it until I finish my current mascara and I didn't want to reduce the shelf life of the product. However, I'm excited to use it and see if it works and lives up to the hype in the description... anything that lengthens lashes is my friend. This was another full size product of 9ml for $12.50.

Bonus: Marcelle BB Cream Beauty Balm


Glossybox says: New! Marcelle BB Cream: Try the 1st BB Cream formulated especially for Canadian women! Your 8-in-1 skin enhancer does it all for you, instantly! Offered in 2 shades with self-adjusting pigments to suit all ages and skin types.


I already own this BB Cream and I think it lives up to all the hype surrounding it. I absolutely love it and use it everyday, either alone or under my foundation if I want more coverage. I wrote a review on this product earlier and it can be found here. The sample I received is in the light to medium shade (I have the medium to dark shade). The full size of 45ml is worth $22.95 and the sample is worth $0.51.

Overall Experience: 
I have to say I loved this months Glossybox a lot better than last month because I know I will use and like each of the products in it. Also, you really can't complain with receiving three full sized products can you?!
This box costs $15 per month, but the value of this month's box adds up to: $60.01! That's pretty good don't you think? If anyone would like to subscribe, please use my referral link and make sure you let me know so I can thank you!
