GLOSSYBOX June 2012--My first box!

GLOSSYBOX has finally come to the states, you guys! This wasn't their debut month, but unfortunately I found out about this too late for their first US box which was in May. Basically, GlossyBox is a beauty samples subscription program where you pay $21 for 5 "travel-size" samples each month. It's probably the most expensive of the beauty sample programs I've tried, but this is supposed to be a more high-end program.

Here is what I got:




I won't lie, I haven't heard of any of these brands except for Wella.

Here is the breakdown of the costs of each item:

- A Perfume Organic in Urban Organic - ?? No ounces listed on sample.
- First Aid Beauty Smooth Shave Cream - $7.50 (This is the actual size sold at Sephora)
- Beauty Addicts Show Off Mascara - $20.00 (full-size)

TOTAL: $44.48 +

I think I did well with this box! For $21, I got about $45 worth of product samples! The only product I definitely do not like so far is the A Organic Perfume perfume oil. It smells so bad, seriously. I am not particularly picky when it comes to perfumes, but this one just stank for me, sorry. I definitely would have liked to receive the "Green" version, since it is a rose scent and I love rose scents. :) Also, I don't have fine/normal hair - mine is thick and oily. I'll try the Wella treatment anyway though. I can't wait to use the whipped shea butter...I haven't opened it yet since it has a protection seal over it. And everything else that came in this box! 

Have you tried GlossyBox? Do you like it? Would you be interested in a subscription with them?
