February 2016 Topbox
So this Topbox
posting is really late. My Topbox
decided it wanted to take the long way around to get to me in Winnipeg. I know
nobody likes coming here in the winter but come on! Canada Post took it on a
ride from Mississauga to Dieppe, New Brunswick, then on to Montreal before
arriving a week or so later in Winnipeg. I guess I should be happy it arrived
this month at least! Then my camera decided it would pick last week to die. But
it wasn’t dead! The SD card was corrupted and wouldn’t let my camera turn on. I
was so happy once I figured that out. After some swearing and smashing of
computer equipment, I was able to get some of the images off my card and onto a
USB stick. Technology be a bitch sometimes! Teresa Smash!!! Ha but I am
thankful I have my pictures now.

Bliss Fabulous Drench 'n' Quench deluxe
sample
Full size:
1.7oz/$48
I quite like this
moisturizer. It makes my skin feels really soft and smooth. Combine it with the
Bliss Radiance serum and my skin looks great sans makeup.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer deluxe
sample
Full size: 1oz/$44
Full size: 1oz/$44
I have tried this
primer before and I thought it was good. I think there are maybe better priced
options out there for primers. But on the other hand, I do really want to try Smashbox’s
new smoothing primer.
Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer - Later
Alligator full size
Full size $15.83
I have heard that
Morgan Taylor is good polish. I kind of wish it was more of a Valentine themed
colour but green will do as St. Patrick’s Day is coming up.
Nova Scotia Fisherman eXtreme Skin Care Sea Salt Soap deluxe sample
Full size: 4.8oz/$7.95
I could smell this
as soon as I opened the mailbox. Wow it is strong and reminiscent of a man’s cologne. But this oil rich soap was quite moisturizing. I love the fact that it is
made with so many good for you oils. Look at these ingrediants...
Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil, Aqua (Water), Cocos
Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Elaeis Guineensis (Palm) Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Ricinus
Communis (Castor) Oil*,Glycine Soja (Soy) Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea
Butter)*, Parfum (Natural Fragrance Blend), Stearic Acid, Fucus Vesiculosus
(Nova Scotia Sea Kelp)*, Maris Sal (Sea Salt), Tocopherol (Vitamin E)*
Psst Nova Scotia Fisherman has a free trial available – select 3 sample sizes and pay for $5 shipping
Overall I think it
is a good box this month. I did find an amazing moisturizer in this Topbox this
month and get to try out Morgan Taylor. Although, I wouldn’t know where to get
Morgan Taylor in Canada.
