I was soooo surprised to find my March GLOSSYBOX today – after I poked through it I realized why they shipped so fast – they didn’t bother to check the packing. Two of my items were wrong! Ugh. One I think was a last minute substitute. Anyhoo, I know tons of people will love this box and FYI it’s still available to order!

March 2014 GLOSSYBOX

This box was super duper smelly when I opened it. If you’re sensitive to fragrance have someone else open your box.

My items looked interesting! Unfortunately, as I said, I didn’t get 2 of them.

Oh well. I’d forgotten about the bangle!

Alex & Ani Bangle

Alex & Ani Bangle ($28)  Bonus item! I can’t say I would ever wear this but it was a great bonus item. The main charm on it is the swan. I guess you are supposed to get a bunch of them and stack them!

Alterna Bamboo Strand Expand

Alterna Bamboo Strand Expand  ($4.68) Lightweight paraben free plumping lotion for hair. Trying this after my next shower!

etre belle liplift peel ($17.85) Honestly I’d rather have the Jelly Pong Pong but this looks nice.  I just have a very limited need for peeling my lips.

Sisley Paris Black Rose Cream Mask

Sisley Paris Black Rose Cream Mask ($28.59) Seriously? Um wow. The full size tube of 2.1 oz is $158! I doubt I’ll be able to get past what’s described as the “delicious” rose fragrance.

Nails Inc Brook Street Nail Polish

Nails Inc Brook Street Nail Polish ($3.75) This is a terrible TERRIBLE picture. I wasn’t able to get a good one. This teeny bottle is more like bright pink coral!

Alex and Ani (+) Energy Scent 7

Alex and Ani (+) Energy Scent 7 Soap Bar ($14) Was supposed to be hand cream (see my information card!) I don’t use BAR soap so this would be a waste except my husband loves bar soap and this is a pretty manly smell. (Erin made me add BAR because she was like YOU DO NOT USE SOAP?!?! Yes I do cleanse my body!)

The March GLOSSYBOX was, despite its nearly $100 value (96.87), perhaps my least fave one ever! The only thing I’m super excited to try is the bamboo hair plumper!  I think many of these items are going to be reused as gifts, which will be pretty fabulous, as they are pretty pricey. I’m definitely psyched about that.

    This was my first Glossybox ever and I totally loved it! I actually got the hand cream. I got the jelly pong pong in a pink shade. Probably the only thing I didn’t love. I might actually have to keep subscribing….

    So wait, the rose mask has a really heavy smell, right? I am really sensitive to that stuff, and when I saw the spoiler, I actually decided to skip this month because of that. I am trying to figure out if I was right to do so. I had a box in February, and it was pretty good, but also, heavy with fragrances on all the products. http://wp.me/p4lGPl-3r I ended up giving away a bunch of stuff due to the strong smells.

      Yes. I also don’t like rose. I actually love perfume but I don’t like my face stuff to be fragranced. I cannot use rose anything and I can’t have citrus oil on my face. It burns my eyeballs. You did the right thing!

    my card and box also didn’t match, I had the same problem you did and would have rather had the jelly pong pong and hand cream

    Woah, wait I MUST have missed something this month… is everyone getting a bangle!? (sub-box blogger freeze-up moment) If not, and I don’t get one, I’d love to do a trade/buy with you! Working on my alex + ani collection…

      Everyone gets a bangle! But if you get not-swan I’m up for it.

    Do you have to enter a coupon code to receive the bangle or does it just come with the box?

    • Brandy

      It just comes with! I forgot to update with the current coupon code, which happens to be the same as last month’s, because my box came so super early! I really liked the Fresh cream, so you can get that in your box too!

        Thank you! I live in the Boston area and these bracelets are “huge” around here so even if I don’t wear it, it’ll make a great gift for someone.

    I guess there’s no variation in the type of charm… at least, not so far! I’ve only seen swans in people’s boxes. But I’m okay with that. XD I actually only resubbed for this box after finding out about the bangle!
