December’s Birchbox was a bit of a letdown after a great ipsy glambag. Overall, this Birchbox was more of a what not to buy for me. I don’t really like doing negative reviews, and wish I could find something better to say about these. Some are decent, just there are better products out there for […]

Ipsy December 2015 Glambag
With the rising cost of the loonie, I have been thinking of cancelling ipsy since they bill in US dollars and it is getting to be well above the cost of the products. Once again, I missed out on the deadline as the holidays were crazy so I was delighted when the sneak peek came […]
Birchbox November 2015 Sample Choice Unboxing & Review
I really should get to reviewing my subscription boxes earlier, but at least I did it before the next one arrived this time. This is my November Birchbox, the first time they had Sample Choice in Canada, which I jumped on. The Sample Choice item was one of Birchbox’ house brands, LOC curated with Tati […]
November Ipsy Glambag Unboxing
I am still not sure how I feel about my November ipsy glambag. The theme for November was Beauty Blast, so it was nice to get less skincare and more cosmetics. I doubt many people who subscribe to ipsy have managed to never receive a Smashbox Full Exposure mascara sample in the past. I always […]
October’s Ipsy Glambag Review
Compared to my very blah Birchbox, I was quite impressed with my Ipsy Glambag for October 2015. While it was a little heavy on the moisturizers with a face serum and lotion, it included a nail polish which always cheers me up, The Balm Meet Matt(e) Hughes lip colour and an eyeliner.
Birchbox October 2015 Unboxing & Review
I received 6 items in my Birchbox in October as the shampoo came with a bonus conditioner sample. Overall, not that impressed with this box for several reasons and the mascara would be the only one I would use again. I wish you could tell Birchbox that you only want cosmetic samples as I have […]
Birchbox August 2015 Unboxing
While my ipsy glambag for August was terrible, my Birchbox was decent. The Soak It Up themed box was curated to help you make the most out of the few weeks of warmer weather left and keep your summer glow as long as possible.
Ipsy Glambag August 2015 Unboxing
I know, I know, I already have my September ipsy bag photographed for an unboxing (unbagging – whatever) so it is about time I got my August subscriptions up. This ipsy bag was probably the worst of the ones I have received. The preview for ipsy’s August Prep School bag showed Trust Fund nail polish, […]
Birchbox Best Health July 2015 Unboxing

Their theme was Go for the Gold; have your happiest, healthiest summer yet. This Best Health Birchbox is bright and cute, very […]
