May 2013 Ipsy Bag and SeasonsBox


Happy Caturday, Lovelies! I snapped this pic the other night because the furbabies are actually getting along. Onyx is a feisty, dominant girl and often likes to show Mick she's boss. This time around, she's letting him nap. It could be because she is atop my favourite, cozy blanket. 
Let's do some unboxings :)



Spring Fling Ipsy Bag

I really like the bag design this month. I forget how good orange and blue can look good together. Tiffany blue and orange were two of my wedding colours! 



At the top is a Pacifica Roll-on perfume in Tahitian Gardenia.
The middle from left to right:
Zoya Nail Polish in Piaf. I do like Zoya. I like the free 5 formulation which leaves out formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, dibutyl phthalate or camphor. I kinda wish I didn't get the yellow one though.

NuMe Finishing Serum. It's supposed to give your hair a glossy finish.

yaby Concealer in Vanilla. This shade is way too light for me so this will be given away to my sister. I did email ipsy and they said basically I could just trade it away. :P Not really the response of that I wanted.

Urban Decay Moondust shadow in Diamond Dog. I was really surprised when I found this in my bag. I received a note thanking me for being an ipsy content creator. This was such a lovely surprise! Thanks, ipsy :)

On the bottom is Juice Beauty's Reflecting Lip Gloss in pink. Yay for lip gloss!

So all in all, despite the concealer mismatch, it was not a bad bag at all. :) You can sign up for ipsy here.





May SeasonsBox



 This month celebrates Mothers. The May SeasonsBox is filled with ecofriendly and stylish indulgences that are sure to make every woman feel pampered! (from insert card)


 From Left to Right

Deep Steep Natural Body Wash in lavender and chamomile. I hadn't actually heard of this company before. Shea and cocoa butters hydrate your skin while antioxidants moisturize and tone. Sounds good to me!

Gourmet Body Treats Natural Eye Shadow in Island. This is more of a light neutral shade. I have a close-up pick below.

Zen-ful Natural Rose Bath Bomb. I'm pretty sure I have received this before. Just not sure where.....

Priti NYC Natural Nail Polish in Mermaid Rose. Lucky me, another yellow polish, haha! I'm not really sure what part of of the mermaid or the rose inspired this colour. 



This has been the most beauty products I've seen in a month of SeasonsBox. Now I know there's been some talk of the company changing hands or moving. My shipping notice came from Atlanta, GA. I really hope this is still a Canadian company as its one of the reasons I signed up. SeasonsBox, please take some time to explain the situation for us! The sign up for SeasonsBox can be found here.

Beautylishious Bag and TopBox May 2013




Happy Caturday, Lovelies! Today I would like to share my Beautylishious Bag and Topbox for the month of May. 


Beautylishious Bag

Look, Mick is trying to help me open the bag. Thanks, kitty!




Look at all the new goodies! Left to right:

Derma-Soft Wash Emulsion from SebaMed. This is a trial size and protects the skin against dehydration and smooths skin. This is kind of like a purifying oil you could use before your cleanser.

Sanctuary Spa Body Moisture Spray: an light conditioning oil spritz for hydration and a healthy sheen. 

Neutrogena Wave Power-Cleanser: I've never tried deep cleaners like this but I will now! It also came with 2 weeks worth of cleaning pads.

LA Science Follicle Stimulating Shampoo. I think this is to help with thinning hair. Its not really a problem I have.


I also find it a joy to open my Beautylishious bag. Check out Beautylishous Bag!

TopBox May 2013: February Favourites

I was in awe of this year's February regular TopBox, I jumped at the chance of choosing the February Favourites TopBox. This TopBox contained 3 products this time around.



Left to right:

ProFinish Multi-Use Powder Foundation from Make Up For Ever. This can be used wet or dry. I have a closer pic below.

B. Kamins Nutrient Replacement Cream Kx: I've been wanting to try more B Kamins products. Hurray for Canadian companies!

Deborah Lippmann Nail Lacquer in Since I Fell For You. I haven't had a chance to swatch it yet but its definitely a shimmery dark red. I was kinda hoping for Across the Universe. But I do love red polish :)

(Flash from camera makes it appear light then what it is. It is a medium-dark shade)
TopBox is one of the best sub boxes I receive. You can sign up here.
