GLOSSYBOX kindly sent me their December 2015 box to review early and I am so excited to share it! GLOSSYBOX is a monthly beauty subscription box and includes five luxury surprise beauty items shipped to your door. I have been a subscriber for years (in addition to getting review boxes I also pay for a subscription) and am always in awe at the value they pack into their boxes.
GLOSSYBOX ships via USPS and generally boxes ship in the second half of the month (as I mentioned I received this one early for review purposes). Sometimes it’s the last week of the month, sometimes it’s closer to the beginning of the month.
I saw a sneak peek of this box on SnapChat (lots of boxes seem to be using SnapChat for sneak peeks lately), but I didn’t know what everything was.
The December 2015 GLOSSYBOX included the following items:
~GLOSSYBOX Eyeshadow in GLOSSYBOX Mauve (3g) ($11): This eyeshadow was made for GLOSSYBOX by Dobner Kosmetik. It’s a very pretty grey’ish purple. I believe that all subscribers will receive this shadow in this month’s box.
~MTJ Cosmetics High Definition Mascara (Full Size) ($21): This isn’t at all clumpy and is just a good solid mascara. The wand is really neat (you can check it out here), but I did feel like it took me extra coats. I may just need a little practice with it? Anyway, I believe that all GLOSSYBOX boxes this month will also include this mascara.
~Simple Sugars All-Natural Body Scrub (Cranberry) (5oz) ($14): I received this in Cranberry, but the information card says that a variety of scents will be sent out. It’s all-natural and is made with sensitive skin in mind. This doesn’t seem (to me anyway), like something GLOSSYBOX normally sends out, but it was such a fun change of pace. I can’t wait to see what other scents they are sending (I know from SnapChat that coconut is one).
~Color Club Nail Lacquer in Feverish ($8.50): Feverish, which I *think* is the only shade being sent out, is “a deep shade of red, with hints and burgundy, that will get your blood boiling”. It’s stunning. I am hoping to switch my polish over to this in the next few days. It’s an awesome winter shade.
~Gold Label Cosmetics Creme Lipstick in Private Jets ($14): Gold Label Cosmetics is a fairly new brand, which is made in the USA, Cruelty-Free, Paraben-Free and Gluten-Free. Private Jets is a highly pigmented pink. I can’t say I am a fan of the shade, but that’s just me! According to the information card, there will be a variety of shades of the Gold Label Lipstick sent out. I found this blog which has swatches of them all so you can get an idea of what you *may* receive.
~Estee Lauder Consultation Coupon: The box also included a card that you can redeem for a complimentary beauty service at your local Estee Lauder Counter and take home a 10 day supply of your perfect foundation.
All totaled I came up with a value of $68.50 for the December 2015 GLOSSYBOX. I loved the variety of brands they sent out and was quite pleased that I had never received (or even heard of) 4 of the 5 from this month’s box! It also seemed like they sent out some new, smaller brands which I liked as well.
What do you think of this month’s GLOSSYBOX so far? Just a reminder, GLOSSYBOX has been sending out variations in boxes the last few months so don’t be surprised if your box is a little different than this one. I don’t know that it will be, but it might. If you want to snag this box, grab it soon because it’s probably going to sell out quite quickly.
I can’t wait to get mine! I love your reviews, do you get all your boxes free?
I just realized maybe that sounded snarky;I apologize. PleAse delete. Keep up the good work 🙂
LOL. No, that wasn’t snarky! I don’t get all of them free! I do pay for a bunch (GLOSSYBOX, Birchbox, POPSUGAR, Barkbox, Boxycharm, Wantable, Mommy Mailbox are ones I pay for that I can think of off the top of my head.) If I get them free it says it at the top of the post.
I really like this box, the only thing I’m not excited for is the lipstick (even though I have way too many mascaras and sugar scrubs). I still can’t believe what a good deal I got on gilt city !
The box looks so nice and I decided to use my Gilt City voucher towards this one 🙂
This box doesn’t look that exciting for me, but I am excited about the body scrub, I hope I get it in coconut!
Oh! I think Simple Sugars was on Shark Tank! Can’t wait to see which scent I get.
Simple sugars was on shark tank-I totally forgot!! The girl was pretty young I believe, and I remember being so happy for her!!
I’m not getting Glossybox but that eye shadow looks gorgeous – purples & greys are my favorite!! The scrub would be really nice too!
I think this month’s box is really nice. Once hope I get the body scrub in coconut.
Seems like a decent box. I’m kind of sick of getting nail polish very month. I have way too much. Really like the body scrub, lipstick and mascara. I think GB has a great box compared to other subscriptions.
Just curious…since you also pay for a subscription, do you get 2 per month? If so…my question is, did your boxes match? I just got mine and it had 2 cards inside, but neither matches the products within (which kinda stinks). I’m not 100% sold on the actual products inside and I’m not sure if I want to try them (unsealed, all). I’m currently scouring the net to see if anyone else got and has tried the mystery products. Very suspiciously, I cannot even find them listed on the entire GB website. I went ahead and canceled since their CS is a headache I definitely don’t need at the moment. But I’m almost ready to tip it all into the garbage. Very suspect.
I do. Here’s a picture of my second box:

Thanks girl! Still different from mine. I think I’ll be safe rather than sorry and pitch the iffy stuff.
What’d you get?
