May 2012 Luxebox by Loosebutton

Just received a surprise this afternoon.
Once again they had made this box bigger than usual.

This month's box included:




Cargo - Blue_Ray High Definition Lip Gloss (Panama)
Full Size = Sample Size $25

This is my second Cargo lip gloss.  The first one was from my topbox.  I still think the time strip is a cool idea.  I have so much lip gloss to go through...

Orlane - Oligo Vitalizing Scrub
Full Size 75ml @ $42, Sample Size 3.5ml @ $1.96

I love to try a new face scrub.  After I've tried it, it was decent.  It is not as good as the one I am thinking of purchasing.  I will give it a few my tried but for this price, it is a bit pricey than the other brand.

Paco Rabanne
Black XS L'Exces For Her
Full Size 50ml @ $74, Sample Size 1.2ml @ $1.78
Black XS L'Exces For Him
Full Size 50ml @ $78, Sample Size 1.2ml @ $1.87

Bugger, more perfume samples.  Wait, have I seen these in previous month's box...  I do like the smell but not sure if it is right for summer.  I am saving the men's for either my husband or my brother.

MoroccanOil
Intense Hydrating Hair Mask
Full Size 250 ml @ $38, Sample Size 75ml @ $11.40

Perfect!  Never tried a Hair Mask before.  I think this is a great sample size.  Can't wait to try it.  My hair is so dry right now so I am hoping this will hydrate it.

Inside the Bath and Body Box:
Gillette Venus & Olay 5 blade razor (Well.ca $14.99)

I cant believe how much razors cost.  I really think it is a rip off.  I think razors cost the company a few bucks to make but charge the customers an arm and a leg for it.  This one looks interesting to try because it has Olay moisturizer bars.  I wonder if they might provide a wax removal sample.  I would love to try it...

Olay Regenerist Wrinkle Revolution Complex
Full Size 50ml Well.ca @ $37.99 or Walmart @ $33.47
Sample Size 7ml @ $4.69 (per Walmart)

Already received this sample from P&G sample pack.
I feel so old when companies send me anti-aging samples...Hahahaha
If companies starts sending me Poise & Polygrip samples...I dont know if I should just laugh or cry.

Total Value of the box: approx $61


The Bottom Line

My experience with this month's box - 3/5
Product received - 3/5
The surprise - 3/5
Favourite product received - MoroccanOil
Brownie Points - Received plenty of samples
Overall reaction - It's a bigger box...Meh...

  1. I got my box today. Was really happy with what I got. I got the Morrocan oil mask, Orlane scrub, Orlane face mask, a Cargo eyeliner pencil(full size), a Cargo Blush (full size) and Essie nail polish (full size). I didn't get the bath and body box with the razor but I'm totally ok with it:) I'm also really glad I didn't get the small perfume sample!

  2. Ugh my boxes sucked. Not a great first impression being that this was my first. I got both boxes (no need for wrinkle cream I am 24) And then in my black box got another sample of the wrinkle cream, 3 samples of perfume, a cargo glitter eye liner/shadow thing, a hair masque(for colored hair..mine is natural so I passed it on to my mom)

    I really hope next month is better :( I hope I won't regret getting the full year.

    1. Not all boxes will be great. At least you've got your money's worth.

  4. Seems strange to me that not all boxes contain the same, you might always be the unlucky one which can't be right.
