I'm here with my October Glossybox overview!! I got this box about 2 weeks ago, but just got around to taking pics this past weekend. The theme for this box was Spa Luxe - Let go, Unwind, Restore.
Starting from the left the soap is the Heartland Fragrances exfoliating loofa soap in Peppermint. It says this is a truly unique hand-poured loofa soap encased in gentle glycerin provides the perfect blend of moisture and exfoliation. This soup is designed to improve circulation and is great for exfoliating. I haven't used this yet but this stuff smells amazing!!! I'm really interested to give this a whirl, even though I'm usually not a fan of bar soup. Price of a full size (which this is) is $8 for 6 oz.
The next item is the Alterna Bamboo Luminous Shine Mist. The card says it's an Eco certified shine mist made with Indian gooseberry and organic bamboo that controls frizz and flyaways. It is a brilliant and weightless gloss for any hair type. I haven't tried it yet, but I could certainly use something to help control frizz in my hair. The sample is .85 Fl. Oz and a full size is 4 oz, which retails for $22.00.
To the left of that is the Carol's Daughter Shea Souffle. This is a superbly rich & fast absorbing daily moisturizer containing Shea butter, cocoa butter, and jojoba oil to help you reach your skin's optimal softness. This Shea souffle is non-greasy and free of parabens, mineral oil and artificial colors. I got mine in Ecstasy which is described as sugared strawberry, island mango and Egyptian musk. I think it smells more musky than anything else and I don't really like the scent. It's not unbearable but it's definitely not my favorite. It also is described as being non-greasy and putting it on my hands it seems pretty greasy. It took a few minutes for it to sink it, but they still felt greasy but they also feel soft. I'm excited to try this on my very dry legs. My sample is 4 oz which is a very nice size sample. Full size of this product is 8 oz and retails for $20.00.
I also got the Modelco Lip duo lipstick & ultra shine lip gloss. It says this is an ultimate pairing in lip color - a flawless, long lasting lipstick & an intense beaming gloss. Each may be worn separately or layered for an individually tailored hue. The lipstick is called Dusk and the lipstick is called Striptease. As you can see from the swatch below the gloss is on the right, and it's clear you can't really see it. There is some glitter in the gloss, but it's nothing major. Not a lot shows up on your lips. The color isn't necessarily the most flattering color, but I'll give a whirl. The packaging is really nice on this product, but I'm just not a fan of the double ended lipstick & gloss combo. It does have a little mirror on one side of the black part, that is nice. This product retails for $39.00
The last item I received in this months box was the Nastassja Skin Enzyme Facial Peel. The card says this revolutionary facial peel is infused with vitamins and nutrients. It exfoliates with papain, a naturally occurring enzyme in papaya, and gently eliminates dead, dry skin cells to reveal a more radiant you. I'm not going to lie, this product scares me!! I've never used anything that says facial peel so I'm a little hesitant to try this. I will however give it a try and see what it does to my skin. I have read that papaya is good for your skin, so I guess you just never know. My sample is 0.25 oz and full size is $40 for 2 oz.
