Whoops - I have been so busy getting my whole trip together this, that I actually forgot Manicure Monday! Crazy!
So, sadly this week I did not do a Halloween themed Mani - only because I am leaving on Saturday and don't want a weird chipped Mani on my holidays!
I decided to go super girly this week - ballet pink + glitter!
I love the shade of this polish - it's gorgeous!
Here is my chart breakdown for the three inexpensive Beauty Boxes available in Canada:
Memebox is a Korean Beauty Box company. Memebox is not a monthly subscription box - they instead have a ton you can choose from ranging in price from $15 and up. The boxes have different themes and their are limited quantities and they sell out quickly! The boxes come with 4-8 full size and deluxe sample size items & they usually show you 1 spoiler from the box and the rest are all surprises! Shipping to Canada is $6.99 (shipping does take any where from 10-20 business days) and they ship worldwide!
When they came out with the "Princess" edition boxes clearly I had to jump on the Sleeping Beauty one! It was $29 + $6.99 for shipping to Canada
"When you need more than a kiss from a prince to break your beauty spell… use our Sleeping Beauty Box!
Break out of your beauty rut and pamper yourself in the PM for an instant beauty transformation! Revitalize dull and tired-looking skin with ultra-moisturizing, and super nutritious formulas to lock in hydration and essential vitamins and minerals! Give yourself the ultimate skin care therapy with beauty goodies that retexturize, repair, and renew skin for petal-soft, radiant skin the next morning!"
Generally, when you order a Memebox usually the shipping date is about a month in advance so make sure you check!!
I have been super excited for this box to arrive! Here is the first look:
And here is a closer look at the goodies:
In addition to their regular box this month, I also decided to sign up for the LouLou Limited Edition box. This box was $35 ($36.75 with tax) and comes with your choice of a 4 month print copy or an 8 month digital copy of LouLou Magazine. I have actually been subscribed to LouLou for the past couple of years, so I chose to try it out digitally.
Here is the 10th Anniversary LouLou Box:
And here is a closer look at the products:
TopBox is a Canadian Beauty Box Subscription - for $12 CDN a month with free shipping (I pay $12.60 each month with tax), you will receive 4 deluxe sample size or full size products. You fill out a beauty profile and get items based on what you have identified. Also, every month you have the option to "wish" for a prive box. A prive box is a box that focuses on one brand or product for the whole box. (The only downside is that they do have a wait list - it took me about a month to get off of it).
This month I selected the "Elizabeth Arden" box that should come with 4 sample products from the brand. You are not always guaranteed a Prive box if you have wished for it; however, I have received the one I have wished for all each time I have selected one.
Here is a look at my October Topbox:
Woo hoo - got the Elizabeth Arden Prive Box. (TopBox used to ship out in cardboard tubes, now they give you the option to select a little bag instead - i like these because they can be re-used!)
