Prince Archie has both parents looks. His mother eyes and hair color, his father nose and mouth. I knew he was going to be beautiful. I’m just sad by all the mean things some people are saying because he’s not what they thought he should have looked. It’s NOT your child! He’s a blessing to HIS family! Stop hating on a babies

2nd Glossy Box

So as you all know I’ve recently joined up with Glossy Box. The first box is pretty cool. I’ve added some pictures. Now on to box two! 

I was hoping that this box would “WOW” me like the first one did. However, that wasn’t the case. Now before you think I was dupe I wasn’t. Packaging was beautiful like the other one. However according to the pamphlet I should have gotten 5 items. However I only got 4 items. So I figure this is an easy fix I’ll call or send out an email to tell them. I’ve called them for a week and no one called me back. I’ve e mail them as well and no one bother to get back in touch with me. It’s pretty insulting being that I’ve paid for a service upfront for 3 months and when they make an mistake that could be easily fix they refuse to take my call or e mail me back.  So if you are planning to buy from them just be careful

Glossy Box: Like my last blog 1- being the lowest and 5 the highest

I’ve added links to the companies where you can read more about these products. 

 Oryza Beauty: Lipstick Lido

It’s a cute color. It’s dusky pink nude color. It’s good for a natural fresh blushed look something you could wear for work, causal or day event. I like the ingredients some have Shea Butter and Pomegranate. Ti does glide on very smooth. If you want to have it last longer I would suggest putting a little setting power after your first coat wait a minute or two and then applied a second coating of the lipstick  I’m giving this 3. Mostly because I’m on the fence with this product. I have to wear it a few more times before I move up the number

Jurlique: Rosewater Balancing Mist

I have other products from this company and it’s one of my favorites. Especially when it comes to face care. I should write a blog about this company. You can find Jurlique on Amazon. Rosewater Balancing Mist is so refreshing and does add an nice summery glow. I have been carrying it everything with me. It smell beautiful. I know that this can be used for setting make up, before and after Honestly I’m using it before, during the day and after my “face is done” LOL  I’m giving this a 5 Trust me ladies you will love this. It’s a great gift for yourself and others. 

Afterspa: Amazing Makeup Remover 

OK ladies, this is going to be your new best friend! All you need is water! That’s it! I love this product and kept wondering why haven’t I’ve heard of this sooner? This cute makeup remover is pretty awesome! All you have to do is add water. That’s it! It’s so soft. does an excellent job taking off my eye makeup. I also feel this is age friendly. Let’s be honest a lot of these companies want to force on women under 25. It’s gentle for all ages. Which to be honest after 40 some things are harsh for our skin. Because our skin is aging and we’re in-between stages of life. But this company Without question this is a 5 ;)

Luscious Cosmetics: Camera Powder

The colorless Camera Powder does make your foundation look flawless. It also help fix my imperfections and fine lines. You don’t need to be in front of a camera to feel like a model with this item. I’m looking forward to trying other items Luscious Cosmetics sales.  They are a 4/5 It’s hard to say. I really like it and it’s borderline loving it. 

The Item I didn’t get was Leighton Denny :(

I’ll be honest I was looking forward to trying this item, because I’m always doing my nails. I’m disappoint that Glossy Box hasn’t gotten in touch with me about it. 

SO that’s is my review for second box. I’m going to be doing reviews on my other beauty boxes soon. So keep an eye for them. IF you are a member of Glossy Box me know. Tell me what you think of the these products if you have tried any of them.  Until then ladies,

Stay Awesome!

Box 1 of Glossy Box

So as most of you know I have an addiction. Some might think it’s shopping, music, movies, food shopping… (Yes, I said it twice lol) Others might have thought it’s handsome men watching…(Well, that’s like a hobby like bird watching HAHA) But truth IS I love makeup. (shoes is the other one ;p) I love trying different looks,enjoy watching youtubers putting makeup. Getting a makeover, samples, etc.  I love to look natural, to classy and depending when and where even crazy (never trashy) My love for makeup started around the age of years old. My parents bought me make it your self makeup kits. I’m talking old school early 80′s barbie style. From the time I was able to wear make (back in my days we waited until our teens) and colors were limited I always wore my “Go to colors” But these days with so many brands out there, different ways to express yourself with colors Sky’s the limits Ladies!

I have a few different subscriptions which I will be writing about. Sharing my thoughts on these beauty subscriptions. Especially if these are good for women over 40! I’m over 40 & proud of it. I’m glad to see my generation embrace our age. We aren’t like our grandmas. Even our mothers who are now grandmother’s are looking amazing with out any medical procedures. Not there is anything wrong with them. Personal I would love to get lip injections and some fillers around my eyes and forehead. But I can’t afford them. (Well explain on another blog) 

Let’s get started. Glossy Box offers  5 premium beauty products every month worth over $60 dollars. I signed up for buy 3 boxes for $58 plus one free. Plus Free Shipping and Handling.  I added the links on Glossy and each item I’ve tested so feel free to check them out. Also Glossy Box offer great deals. And if you are a member of  Rakuten you get cash back.  I’ve been waiting to see if Glossy will live up to the hype that I’ve been reading on Instagram  

Glossy Box  

The packaging  from the shipping box to the product box I was impressed. The shipping box is black with beautiful white logo! So cute! (Yes, I will be adding pictures)

When I got to the box itself I knew that I was going to be in for a real treat… The pretty in pink box with blush pink tissue paper tie up with a black ribbon is very chic.  This packaging sophisticated and chic. As you can tell I really like there packaging. I tend to save boxes for arts and crafts projects, storage and these boxes themselves (aside from all the products) is great to use as a present/ gift box (Christmas and Birthdays)  ;) Let’s be honest pretension is everything! From a scale from 1-5 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest, I’m giving them a 5! 

The pamphlets: Ladies let be honest, after 40 we know that sooner or later we are going to need reading glasses. One of my problem is, I’m just like my mother who is always losing them. lol Unlike some other beauty boxes the pamphlets have tiny print that you can’t barely read the product information with reading glass and a magnifying glass. And if my nephew is around being he’s only 10 I have to bribe him to read it for me. (Not for an all American Boy lol) Imagine my delight this pamphlet actually have normal size print.  The way the print them balance out of darker and lighter shade that flows well with the pictures of items.Unlike some other beauty boxes they offer one page writing as much as they can squeezed on an 4X6 size paper.  On a scale from 1-5  pamphlet is 5

OK, OK let’s get down to “Nitty Gritty” The AWESOME ITEMS!

5 full side items:

1- Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer 

 “Lux Be A Lady” (shade’s name) I love this color. it’s a neutral shine soft brown earthy color. It would be approved by The Queen of England for the all the Princess could wear on the list. HAHA (The Queen would hate me I love loud both bright and dark nails HAHA) It’s has a creamy texture with a full brush. Also this product doesn’t have a storng odor like some other nail polish have  I was able to do one hand without having to re dip for more polish. However I suggest that 2 coats per nails will make them look like you got them done at the saloon

2- Sleek MakeUP’s: Sun Is Shining Eye shadow Palette  

Has an array of back-to-basic soft nudes, subtle golds and warm peach shades, perfect for chic daytime or nighttime fun! 12 shades of mineral based higly-pigmented Long lasting trust me you don’t have to worry about touching up while at work. During the day have a matte look and before going out on blend those colors. These intense color pay-off! FYI, the price is GREAT! $12.99 which is prefect for us ladies who can’t afford $150 for eye-shadow palettes. This brand truly cares about quality

3- Emma Hardie Purifying Pink Clay Mask:

OK  this is a sample size. But it goes a long way! Aside from being a little on the thick side make sure you put it one lightly. It’s works amazingly well. Putting it on makes me feel like I’m at a spa. You can feel it working. A deep botanical-rich exfoliate purify pink clay mask that: exfoliate, detoxify  balance, and refine pores. Scale from 1-5 I’m give it a 4 My reason I have another clay mask that I like better. But this would be on my top 5 list of face mask for sure. 

4- Invisibobble The Waver: I got the clear. Which is good for any women at any age. At first glance I thought it was going to be flimsy especially because I have very think hair. Those that knows me and knows my hair. I’ve been famous for breaking brushing while combing my hair,hair pins, barrettes, even ponytail holders! Lord have mercy!  My hair is like the Hulk without being green. LMAO Well these two little hairpins was able to stay, hold my hair in place when it was 3H outside working on my garden! Scale from 1-5… 5 for sure! 

5- Omorovicza Cleaning Foam: This delicately scented blue cleansing foam swiftly purifies and refreshes the skin. It’s sulphate-free. It does an Okay job on removing makeup. Not so much for eye makeup. If you have sensitive skin this product is good for you. On my scale from 1-5 I’m give it 3. I’m on the fence with it. 

6- Hask Unwined Provence Rose’ Deep Condition and Brut Rose’ Deep Condition. (I loved both of them. My hair is silky smooth, soft and helps with protecting my hair from harsh chemicals from dying it. I personally liked the smell from Provence Rose a little more.  Scale from 1-5 they both are getting 5. I would buy these for myself and as gifts for my girls. 

Well my peeps this sums up my review of box one. I’m still testing box two. Plus I have a few other beauty items I’m excited about writing soon. I hope you all enjoy my review.s Feel me to drop me a line and share with your friends, family and so on! 

Have An Amazingly Bless Day!
