OK
2I was a bit underwhelmed with this box, as a new subscriber. I was hoping that filling out the profile would help dictate what was in the box, but I got the perfume, which as a redhead with sensitive fair skin is always a crapshoot and the color control compact was WAY too dark, it was a bit disappointing. It seems like the boxes are not matched to your profile

Received my box-disappointed
1I just received my box and it was missing three of the products. Not only was it missing three of them but they were the big ones. I pretty much just ended up with some samples in foil packets, the perfume and an eyebrow pencil sharpener. The compact, eyeliner, hairspray, and y moisturizer were nowhere to be found. This is only my second glossbox to receive but its quite a bummer for $20.00. I could've gotten this stuff at my local custom make-up store for free. Hopefully I get some kind of feedback from customer service but this is a total bummer. I was thinking I was gonna be getting something totally different. Maybe the quality control on the boxes needs to be looked at or maybe I'm just one really unlucky customer :-(

Love
4I really liked this box. I found everything pretty useful. The face mask was lovely, the perfume stick smells so good, the lotion was amazingly moisturizing, and the moisturizer/primer was spectacular! Very nice box this month.

Not Great
1I was so excited for this Birthday box but was very, very disappointed. I received the miniscule anti aging serum sample- that was fine, not great. I received the collagen mask and that's cool, the Sebastian samples I always enjoy but the rest was beyond a dud!! I didn't care for the scent of the perfume solid- I got the '100' and if boutique packaging means a plastic pushup case, you can keep it. Then I got a pencil sharpener. What?! Is that right? Do you get one OR the other? I normally love any and all tools but this seemed really random. Otherwise, my pencil was just left out and that really stinks. :( Then the European wax stuff was a joke! A foil packet of lotion and exfoliant? I don't live in NY state so ZERO pay off here. How is THIS a one year anniversary/birthday celebration? I do understand that GB is a Samples service and I like samples but usually, a 1 or 2 use sample is given free. That's why they're called samples. I guess I expect slightly more bang for my glossy bucks. This is the 2nd to the last box of my 6 mo subscription and I'm beyond disappointed.

Not renewing my box
1I was really in love with this subscription box, but this month just wasn't my thing. Mine came very late not until May 29th. In it was two exfoliating samples, a very tiny intense defense serum, small travel size parc 59 rolle on perfume ( I did like this one), a eye pencil and sharpener, a mask and a coupon. For me just isn't worth the value. I might come back in a few months, but right now I am going to take a break.

I loved it.
5I was super excited that I got my box early this time. Thank you for that! (: \r\nI don't know about everyone else, I absolutely loved my box. The things I got in my box were: \r\n1)the Epionce anti-aging serum- I turned 20 in december so I don't have wrinkles yet, but its never too early to start taking care of that problem. I'm really excited to try it. \r\n2) Etre belle mask- this looks like a fun thing to try. I've never used facial masks before and I should probably start. If I like it I'll buy the full size.\r\n3) European Wax Center- I got the exfoliator and the lotion. I've been looking for a new exfoliator so this was great. The samples were a bit small, but I can live with that. The I am so grateful for the coupon for a free wax. I definitely need to get my eyebrows done \r\n4) Perfume stick- Mine smells earthy.lol. I don't know if that describes it but it just smell like nature, clean, and fresh. I really liked it. \r\n5) Volupt Spray- I already have way too much volume in my hair, it doesn't hurt to have a little more. If I don't like it I can always give this one to my mom since her hair is a bit flat. \r\n6) Xtreme Lashes (mine came with a sharpener) THIS! I CAN'T EVEN! This eyeliner oh my gosh! I just drew a little line on my hand to test it out and it looks so nice, glides on super smooth and its super pigmented. I have to say that this was my favorite thing in my box. \r\nI am beyond excited for the June box! Thank you for such a lovely box and Happy One Year! :D

Not the best.
2This is my third Glossy Box and this is the first one I've been disappointed with. I love the hair spray/root lifter -- it didn't make my hair crispy, but the wax center samples are tiny and the foundation I received was the darkest shade available when my beauty profile says I'm fair. I wish Glossy Box would take skin tone into account when selecting samples for the boxes. The perfume has a summery, citrus scent, but it didn't last long. The mattifying moisturizer looks promising though.

My First Glossybox!
4I have been a longtime subscriber of both Ipsy and Birchbox, but I wanted to branch out and try the very awesome and cutely-packaged Glossybox! I was so excited when I found my May box at my doorstep, as I thought I signed up too late and would have to wait a full month for June's box. I was immediately so impressed with the packaging. I am using my first Glossybox as an organizer for the top of my nightstand, I love it! As far as the products - I was very excited to see some items I wouldn't normally think about buying. I have the mask on as I type this and it feels so wonderful on my semi-dry skin. I love, love, love the eyeliner. I have been in need of a great espresso-colored liner and this one is really amazing -- it glides on smooth, the color is a perfect espresso color, and it really does have great staying power. The sharpener was an added bonus and I'm happy that was included, especially since the sharpeners I currently own are so messy and pretty old. I haven't washed my hair since I got my box yesterday, but I am excited to try out the Sebastian volume spray gel. It's a nice twist on your average volumizing spray and Sebastian is a wonderful brand. I also LOVE the perfume stick. I get so annoyed every time I receive another perfume sample, so I was excited to see an actual full-sized perfume that I have never used before and one that will certainly become a staple in my purse for touchups. The packaging is so cute and the smell is wonderful and lasts for awhile. I haven't used the body wash and moisturizer packets from European Wax Center and they are single use packets, but a nice way to round out the box. I also haven't tried out the Epionce serum just yet. I think I'm going to give this one to my mom as I'm sure she will appreciate it way more than me and my 26-year-old skin. I'm officially in love with Glossybox and I can't wait to see what my second box has in store.

OKAY Box
3This is my first glossybox and I was really excited about it. What I have in the box:\r\n1.Slow it Body wash &the exfoliate sample - used the exfoliate right away. Didn't feel much difference. Something I wouldn't buy myself. \r\n2.COLLAGEN & ALOE VERA HYDRO MASK - I like this kind of skin care product. The instruction on the package is not clear but it's a nice mask\r\n3.ABSOLUTE! PERFUME STICK - Love the smell \r\n4.INTENSE DEFENSE ANTI-AGING + REPAIR SERUM - the kind of product I would expect to try. \r\n5.LIP DUO LIPSTICK & ULTRA SHINE LIP GLOSS- love the smell of it. I got pink lip gloss and the color is so pretty\r\n6.VOLUPT SPRAY - I don't have curly hair so I don't need this at all. I wish I could change this to the eye pencil\r\n\r\nOverall, the box is okay. With some items I like and some I don't. I wouldn't say it surprised me but it worth it.
