July's Glossybox, now that I look at the picture, is very colour coordinated! Haha.
1. Zoya Nail Polish - $8.00/.5 oz (Full size!)
I got this in the colour Wednesday and I LOVE it! I have it on my toes right now and it goes perfectly with the sandals I've been wearing. And it's been lasting quite a long time! This is the first time I've actually ever used a Zoya nail polish and it's fantastic!
2. Alessandro International Pedix Heel Rescue Balm - $19.95/100 mL
I haven't used this yet, because I'm in the middle of using a different foot cream.
3. John Frieda Frizz-Ease Sheer Solution - $14.99/60 mL
Love love love John Frieda products! I actually already have some of their frizz ease products, but not this one! I'm excited to give it a try.
4. Dove Softening Creme Body Wash - $5.99/200 mL (Full size!)
Haven't tried this yet! But I was pretty excited to get a full sized body wash.
5. Beautysoclean Sanitizer Wipes - $12.50/48 pack
I haven't had a chance to use this yet, but I think it's a convenient little concept!
6. Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer (Not shown in picture because I've been using it so much & didn't have it with the rest of the products! Lol) - $5.99/2.6 g (Full size!)
As you can probably guess from me not having it in the picture, I love this stuff! Burt's Bees products are one of my favourites!
Thanks for reading! You can subscribe to Glossybox (Canadian) here!
And just for fun here's my cat the whole time I was typing this blog post!!

Dead Reckoning by Charlaine Harris
I really, really wanted to do a review on this book. But I've been so busy, that I think I waited too long since I read it and I don't remember everything from the book.
I do, however, know that it was WAY better than the last book, Dead in the Family. That book was so disappointing to me.
I've heard that there are only 2 more books after this one, so that is a little sad. I've been reading these for so long and I don't want them to stop!
Anyway, back to Dead Reckoning. A lot happened in this book! I can't remember detail, but I know it's a lot similar and different to the show. I feel like the show mirrors off the books in an opposite way. (I'm sure that sentence makes no sense whatsoever, haha.) What I mean is, in the book's Pam was not allowed to make a child as opposed to in the show she made one even though she didn't really want to. Just little things like that.
So since I can't really remember details of the book, I'm sure this was the worst review ever written. All I have to say is that this was way better than Dead in the Family, and I am very pleased with it since I was expecting the books to go downhill after reading that.

Salmonier Nature Park
Last weekend we went to Salmonier Nature Park! There wasn't really much to see there. I think we went there at a bad time of day, but it was still a bit of fun! We got to see a couple of animals.
These pictures are from the inside exhibit:
This was just a random squirrel we saw on the way in to the park!

Owls!

June Glossybox
I've been way too busy lately! I completely skipped May's Glossybox. I had meant to write a post about it but I never had time, and then my June Glossybox arrived. I was really pleased with this one, most of the products I received are items I use the most. So let's get to it!
Biore Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser - 200 mL/$9.99
Haven't tried this yet because I am halfway through my last bottle of proactive, but I really like most Biore products so I'm sure I'll love this!
Cover Girl Flipstick - Blendable lip duo - 3.8 gr/$12.50
I loved the colour of this lipstick, but I ended up giving this one to my Mom because she's been looking for a new colour to wear, haha.
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 55 - 88 mL/$15.99
I'm actually not done using my bottle of this stuff, but this sample size will be good to carry in my purse!
Venus Embrace Razor - 1 kit/$13.43
LOVE Venus Razors. My favourite is the spa breeze because it makes it fast and easy to shave in the mornings, but I like to use embrace when I'm not in such a rush.
Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips - 8/$9.99
I really like these, I use them once every couple of weeks and they work wonderfully!
Wella Professionals Ocean Spiritz - 150 mL/$16.99
I'm not sure how this is supposed to work... but it seems like it's just hair spray to me. I've used it a few times when I wanted wavy hair but it didn't do anything spectacular to my hair, it just looked the way it normally does when I a wavy look!
Olay Regenerist Wrinkle Revolution Complex - 50 mL/$30.99
I haven't used this yet. I was thinking about giving it to my Mom also, but I may keep it for myself! I haven't decided yet.
:) Have a fantastic day!

April Glossy Box
This is super late, but my laptop charger broke about a month and a half ago and Dell took forever to send me a new one! But I have it now, and I thought I'd post about my April Glossy Box!
Wella Brilliance Treatment Fine to Normal
I haven't actually tried this yet. I haven't had time this semester in school, but I do plan on trying it this weekend when I get some time! It smells good enough to eat (but I won't eat it, I promise) 150 ml/$13.99
Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Shower Gel
This also smells good enough to eat! I love this stuff a lot, and they sent it in full size! There were actually a good few full sized products in my April glossy box. Pretty exciting!
Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer
This is my favourite moisturizer ever. This was kind of funny to me, the day before I received my glossy box I had run out of facial moisturizer and I went out and bought this exact one! Then the next day I got this in the mail, ha ha. Oh well, you can never have too many! 120 ml/$22.99
Wella Brilliance Conditioner Fine to Normal
Again, I haven't tried this. I actually put it away with my travel products. I like to keep some tucked away in a box so it's readily available when I go away for a weekend or something. Smells delish though! 250 ml/$13.99
Marcelle Xtension Plus Mascara
I really love this! My eyelashes are pretty long anyway, so I don't need the lengthening. But the curling is nice and I love the thin wand! It applies nicely. 9 ml/$12.50
Marcelle BB Cream Beauty Balm
I haven't tried this yet, I've been waiting for the right time. My skin has been broke out lately, so I don't want to try it in case my skin doesn't react nicely to it! I have really sensitive skin so I try to keep the products I'm trying down to a minimum so if I do break out, I can pinpoint what caused it. 45 ml/$22.95
That's all for tonight! It's getting really late and I have classes in the morning! Good night :)

My first Glossybox!
I finally got my first glossybox today! I was super excited. And it was amazing! I got some really good products. My picture quality isn't really the best, but that's all I can do right now. The lighting in my house is awful for taking pictures.
Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion
I was so excited about this. I am insane about my hand lotion. I have lotion on my dresser, on my desk, on my night table, in my purse, in my book bag for school.... I can't be without it. And this particular lotion is my absolute favourite! I usually get the little travel sized ones, but this one is 354 ml. It retails for $11.99.
Evian Brumisateur Facial Spray
I haven't tried this one yet, but I have been wanting to for a while! I'm sure it will come in handy if we ever get any warm weather in Newfoundland. This retails for $7.00.
Sebastian Re-Shaper Hairspray
I don't use hairspray too often, but I do always have a travel size one in my bag. It's weird, I know. But you never know when you may need it, right?! Ha ha. Retails for $19.95.
Pandora's Blush St. Tropez
This is the cutest package I have ever seen a blush come in! I absolutely love it. And it's a lovely colour. But even if it wasn't, I would probably buy it for the cute packaging! Ha ha. Retails for $18.00.
Bailey Cosmetics Lip Gloss
I tried this earlier, and it's so pretty! And it makes my lips feel nice too. Just like hand lotion, I'm addicted to lip glosses. I hate ones that are sticky and gross. This one doesn't seem like that at all! Love! Retails for $28.00.
Algemarin Foam Bath
Retails for $3.99-$23.95 depending on size. I don't have a bath tub :(. I only have a stand up shower in my small apartment. I'll probably give this to my mother. Or maybe I'll take over my mother's bathroom one day and get a bath and try it out there! I miss baths.
And that's all for the Glossy Box!
I was going to make a post about the Hunger Games, but I figured there are probably ten million out there! Ha ha. I may post some time later in the weekend about how disappointed I was in the movie, but I'm not sure. I have mixed feelings. Part of me liked it and part of me was disappointed. I think I need to watch it again with less expectations and see how I feel. I'll stop talking about it now, ha ha.
