MAY FAVORITES

Hello everyone! Im back! and happy about it, I have a couple days off this weekend therefore I thought, why not blog? Just in time for my may favourites to boot. I've picked out a couple products that I have tried out this month that I have really enjoyed! So here she goes... 

1.paris amour signature collection room spray - I bought this on a complete whim. My mom had the candle in this scent and I really liked it, so I picked this up for about $4 from bath and body works. It's really lovely to spray on your bed and pillows n things for a fresh girly scent. 
2.arbonne makeup primer- my friend is a representative for arbonne products and I chose to buy one of these makeup primers, something that I needed anyways. I'm a big fan of this actually, I really liked benefits pore-fessional makeup primer when I had the sample, and the Arbonne was basically the same product, except the serum was clear. It just makes a nice smooth surface so your makeup will apply flawlessly. And my makeup lasts all day with this, so I appreciate that. You can buy this on the arbonne website for $26 or somewhere around that, it's pricey, but it works
3.batiste dry shampoo - I've heard so many good things about this brand, so I ended up buying a 3 sample pack of the floral and regular. It's great for a little refresh on those days where you don't have time to shower in the morning. It completely adds some life to your hair and the scent is pleasant. $10 at winners 
4.neostrata moisture infusion 24 hr hydrating serum- this is literally the best moisturizing I've ever tried. It sinks in your skin like nothing else ever could. My skin I so moisturized after, it's brilliant. Your skin instantly looks and feels better. $20-30 any drugstore
5.deep down detox ultra-cleansing mud mask orange + bergamot- I have been loving this stuff. I use this when I start getting a few blemishes or my skin is tired and lacking. The day after I've used this my skin looks energized and bright, blemishes have diminished and my skin feels clean and firm. $10 any drug/grocery store.
6.beautiful day fine fragrance mist- this is my new Favorjte body spray from bath and body works, it smells fruity and clean  like you've just had a bath or something.... I can't get enough of this, I even bought the miniature version for my purse. I just love it, so amazing for summer. $10-$15 at B&BW 

those are all of my favorites for this month, I hope you'll think about picking some of these up?!  It feels good to be properly blogging again.

****PS I can't believe glossy box Canada has come to an end, I'm literally so sad! *****

GLOSSYBOX | april

i received my glossybox in the mail a couple of days ago, but just picked it up from the post office yesterday. it's always exciting to get your package and you never know what you're going to have inside. it's a big surprise overall. you pay $21.00 per month for glossybox, and can unsubscribe at any time you wish. i was pretty thrilled with this months box, there were a lot of full sized decent products in here, and a good variety to boot. in the box you received... 
  • jelly pong pong cosmetics lip blush- FULL SIZE. $18.70 value
it's a nice red moisturizing lip stain, it's subtle, but still is nicely pigmented. reminds me of clinique's chubby stick or revlons kissable balm stain. *cruelty free*
  • schick hydro silk razor- FULL SIZE. $10.99 value
this is actually a decent razor that you can buy cartridges for (comes with one). non disposable.
  • boscia recharging night moisture- FULL SIZE. $44.00 value
a concentrated moisturizer that works overnight to repair, strengthen and improve skin's elasticity and firmness
  • pop beauty glitz blitz eyeliner- FULL SIZE. $15.00 value
"smudge-free, glitzy eyeliner has the intensity of a liquid liner but the easy application of a pencil". -water-proof, shade 'olive oomph'
  • heartland fragrances epson bath salts. $10.00 value
there was a wonderful smell coming from the box once i opened it, and it must have been this epsom bath salts. scent is "soft mint". it says that it relaxes, detoxifies, soften's skin, and soothes aches.

BONUS COUPONS 
  1. get one free danone silhouette greek yogurt pack with coupon
  2. schick hydro silk save $3.00 off any schick hydro silk refill 4 cartridge or 6 cartridge pack PLUS save $3.00 off new schick hydro silk disposable razors


so i have to say this months glossybox was more than impressive. i love everything that was inside, and i can't wait to test the products out. at first you think $21.00 a month can get pretty pricey, but look at the value that was inside! you definitely get your moneys worth and then some. i can only hope the other months will be as good as this one. a huge improvement from march's box!
