Recycling GlossyBoxes

On my previous post I received a GlossyBox. One great thing about them is that you can reuse the box and its packaging to wrap gifts. It saves you money, reduces waste in land fills, looks great and professional.









I replaced the love heart sticker with a "J" because my friends name starts with a J, covered the GlossyBox logo with a birthday sticker and tied the cross grain bow on the outside. Recycling is good for the environment :)

Bad thing is my friend is not that into hot pink but I'm giving this box to her as an inside joke thing =p

GlossyBox Australia Valentines Box

I recently signed up to GlossyBox Australia because there was a special on GroupOn for roughly $7 a box. Normally they are $14.95 but at $7 delivered I couldn't resist.
The delivery box is nice. I got this roughly a week after I made the order.

The actual GlossyBox. This is the February Valentines special, hence why it's hot pink.

Comes nicely packages with a pamphlet explaining the products.

What I received L-R: Palmer's Skin Theraphy Oil with Rosehip, Carmex Moisture Plus Lip Balm, Star and Rose Floral Wonderland Emergency Nail Files, PROACTIV Deep Cleansing Wash, Face Of Australia Mineral Lip Shine.

Thoughts:
I got really excited when I saw this package when I arrived home. Packaging wise everything is fantastic and the cross grain bow is gorgeous (I'm a sucker for packaging). However, when I saw the contents I was underwhelmed. I especially did not like the scent of the Face of Australia Mineral Lip Shine, it smells horrible and extremely artificial and chemically. I've yet to try the other products so I'll post an update when I've used some of the products. All in all I'm okay with everything considering the price I paid for all the things I got. I've got another coupon so I'll see how March's box goes.
