Happy Friday!
And a happy Friday it is for me, my April GLOSSYBOX arrived today, yay!
$ All prices are in Canadian dollars. $
This month, GLOSSYBOX teamed up with Olympic medalist Tracy Little to bring us some of her favourite products that, in her words, “totally melt my heart”. Here they are:
Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics Lip Blush | FULL SIZE! | 2.5g | $18.70
A moisturizing lip stain that tints your lips with just the right amount of juicy colour and hydration. Free of sulfates, pthalates, triclosan, ammonia, alcohol and any animal by-products.
AGAINST ANIMAL TESTING!
Wow this product is BRIGHT! A bit too much for my liking.
There is no colour name on this product, but after looking it up on the Jelly Pong Pong Web site, I think it’s “cranberry”.
I’ve had it on for about 1.5 hours now and my lips are still nice and moist – and bright! I also don’t feel like I have anything on, it’s not greasy at all. I haven’t had anything to eat or drink though (been concentrated on writing this post and editing photos, tee-hee) so I don’t know how it would last through “action”. 😛 It does transfer though so careful who you kiss. 😉
Schick Hydro Silk Razor | FULL SIZE! | $10.99 each
The razor that gives back moisture and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth.
DERMATOLOGIST TESTED!
It’s a razor. I get my legs waxed. Nuff said. 🙂
Boscia Recharging Night Moisture | 15ml sample | regular size: 40ml | $44.00
A concentrated moisturizer that works overnight to repair, strengthen and improves skin’s elasticity and firmness.
PRESERVATIVE-FREE! DERMATOLOGIST TESTED!
I’m not familiar with boscia but I will try this one. However, I have oily skin so I’m not sure I’ll be the best judge as to the effectiveness of this product.
This sample is roughly worth $16.50.
Pop Beauty Glitz Blitz Eyeliner | FULL SIZE! | .27g | $15.00
This smudge-free, glitzy eyeliner has the intensity of a liquid liner but the easy application of a pencil.
WATERPROOF!
This pencil is the type that you twist for it to come out, so you don’t have to sharpen it. It feels a bit dry and hard though, I had to do many passes on my hand to get a decent swatch.
Nice colour. Eye pencils aren’t really my thing, but I’m sure I’ll have some opportunities to wear this one.
Once I get to do a day-wear test I’ll let you know how it does with oily skin. Being that it’s waterproof, will I still get raccoon eyes? We shall see…
Heartland Fragrances | sample size unknown | regular size: 30oz | $10.10
Soaking with herb-infused Natural Epsom Bath Salt will soften skin and relieve tired, achy muscles.
This smells really good, it’s minty and fresh. I’m not big on baths, but I will have to take one so I can try this.

Have you tried any of these?

I love razors with 5 blades! and the lippie looks cool too
Since I get my legs waxed I don't use razors, but I'm sure one of my girlfriends will be able to use it. The lippie feels very nice, I just wish it was a bit more sheer or a different colour.
I think the lippie would be way better if it was sheer so you could you use it more frequently. The salts seem cool too! I only take baths once in a blue moon, though. Maybe once every other year or something haha.
Sheer lippies are definitely more my style.
I'm the same for baths, about 1 every other year or so, lol!
The Bosica cream is amazing, but when I went to buy it from the Bosica website they don't ship to Canada. I can't find it anywhere in Canada.
I actually just tried it last night. It's meant for normal to dry skin and I have combination so I found it a bit heavy for me, but I did not get any breakouts so I will keep using the sample.
In Canada they are available at Sephora, do you have one near you? They do ship to Canada too so you could check on Sephora.ca.
