February 2013's Topbox



Hey guys!

Today I'm sharing with you the contents for this month's Topbox. A few weeks ago, Topbox has given it's subscribers a chance to choose whether they want to receive a Prive Box (from Benefit Cosmetics, Lippy Girl, or Miracle 10) or a regular box. Since I am in love with Benefit, it was a no-brainer and I had chosen their Prive Box. Let's take a look at the items I received!

December 2012's Topbox



Hey guys!

First of all, I want to say Merry Christmas to all of you and hope that your celebration would be fun, memorable and full of love!

Today I would like to share with you the products I've received for this month's Topbox. For those who are not aware, Topbox is a Canadian monthly beauty subscription service that provides 4 - 5 deluxe samples from high end brands. Like my first box in October, I've experienced shipping mishap with my box this month arriving more than a week late from expected delivery. Because of the shipping mishap and negative reviews I've seen in some blogs, my excitement for this month's box died down. What products did I receive this month? Let's found out!

November 2012's Topbox


Hey guys!

I am so excited to share with you the products I received from this month's Topbox. For those who do not know what Topbox is, it's a monthly Canadian beauty subscription costing $10.00 CAD + tax that provides 4 - 5 varied high end beauty products. After the disappointment of my initial Topbox, I can say that the products this month are well worth the fee I paid.

Here are the items I received


1) Benefit They're Real! Mascara (3.0g) (Full size retails for $29.00/8.5g) - The first item I saw when I opened the package is this mascara so I got really excited as I have yet to try a Benefit product that I didn't like. Plus, I've read great reviews about this mascara in a lot of blogs so I can't wait to try this out. 


2) China Glaze Polish in I'm in Lion (14ml/Full size) (Full size retails for $10 - 12) - With all the nail polishes I own, it is kind of surprising for me that this is my first China Glaze polish. Although I don't consider China Glaze high-end, I'm still pretty excited to try this brand out and maybe expand based on my experience with this first. The shade I received, 'I'm not Lion' is a gold shimmer packed with multi-coloured glitters which is great for the upcoming holiday season!


3) Pari Beauty Lip Paint in Red (4ml) (Full size retails for $14.00/5.5 ml) - I've honestly never tried any product from this Canadian company before and always just pass by it so I'm glad that this is included in my box this month because I'm a lipstick lover. Also, if I like this lip product, I can then support this brand.


4) Vera Wang Lovestruck Floral Rush (4ml) (Full size retails for $105.00/100ml) - I'm not really into perfumes because I'm kind of sensitive to strong scents but I liked this scent when I took a quick whiff from it. 

Overall: I'm happy with the products I received for this month which I think is well worth the $10.00 and look forward to the upcoming months boxes.

What did you receive in your box this month?

October 2012's Topbox



For the past year, I have read numerous posts from different blogs about the Topbox subscription service box and how great this box is. Topbox is a Canadian monthly subscription service that provides sample sized (sometimes full size) high end products for $10.00 CAD plus tax. So I signed up last April and have been on the waiting list since then. So when I read an email that I will be receiving my first Topbox this month I was so excited! Last Friday, I was advised that my box has been shipped so I should be expecting it soon. So I was anticipating that it would arrive by Monday or Tuesday the latest but didn't receive the box until Thursday night. I don't know who was at fault for the delay as I live in Brampton, ON and the package came from Mississauga, ON which is just a city away. Anyway, I opened the package immediately but was a bit disappointed at the products I saw. 

Here are the items I received;


1) Aveda Ivanti Exfoliating Shampoo and Thickening Conditioner (10 ml) (Full size retails for $27.00/200ml) - These must be the tiniest shampoo and conditioner samples I have seen ever and since I have long hair, I think I'll just get a single use for these. Sadly, I won't be able to decide if I like the product with a single use. I like the their smell though.


2) Masker Aide Hydrating Facial Sheet Mask 'Detox Diva'(Retails for $4.99 for one mask)- This will the very first sheet mask that I'll try and am actually kind of excited to try this one out. I received the 'Detox Diva' which promises to cleanse, exfoliate and detoxify the skin.


3) Stila Eyeshadow Palette in 'In The Light' (I don't think the sample I received has a "value") (Full size retails for $50/14g)  - I have read a few raves about this Stila palette so I was excited to see this but was disappointed when I opened the paper because I can only get one swipe from the shadows, I think. 


4) Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator (20ml) (Full size retails for $34.00/120ml) - I'm excited to try this out as I love anything that would 'brighten' my skin. 


Bonus: A card for a Lise Watier Sample box from Shoppers Drug Mart

Overall: I'm a bit disappointed with what I received for my first box, three of the items included are 'one time use only' and I don't think that's enough to decide if I like the product or not. I'm still excited to see what else Topbox has to offer for the upcoming months!
