TopBox April 2014

Got my April TopBox in the mail yesterday. I picked the regular box this month and I also did an add-on to my box. TopBox will send out email monthly with options of a few add ons to your box after you picked your preferred choice of box. 


4 products included:
Miracle 10 Skincare Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30
Thierry Mugler Alien Eau Extraordinaire
Sweet Pea Soap in Honey & Oats
LA Splash Nail polish

I wear facial sunscreen all year around and happy to receive the Miracle 10 Skincare Sunscreen in SPF 30. Will have to test it out if this is for oily combination skin as I prefer a lighter sunscreen applied on top of my regular moisturizer. 

Another fragrance? This has to be my most unwanted product received. I feel like beauty boxes should really try to eliminate sending out fragrance as scents are very individual and of all the fragrance products I received in all my beauty boxes, I never use ONE of them. 

Sweet Pea Soap in Honey & Oats smell amazing. It has some coarse particles so it will be perfect for exfoliating. Can't wait to try this.

This is my first LA Splash nail polish. This is quite a neon pink shade but very wearable. Perfect for summer.


I did an add-on for $9.99 for the 4 Epic Blend lip balms. Epic Blend is a Canadian brand based in Vancouver, B.C. They use all natural ingredients for their lip balms. No gluten, no parabens and no preservatives. I have Green Apple, Cherry, Citrus Kick and Unflavored. Each lip balm has a different color on their label so it can be easily distinguished. I have tried Green Apple and the scent is quite nice. Not overpowering and it is very moisturizing indeed.  These retailed for $3 each so I think it is not a bad deal for me to get all 4 for $9.99.

    1. Topbox has an option of picking the regular box or prive box monthly so at least we have choices of picking what we prefer.

  2. Epic Blend is amazing! I received one from BB5 subscription and it is easily one of the few favorites. Wish they were avail in the U.S. although they offer shipping to the states.

    1. I am quite impressed by the Epic Blend. They are not readily available in Canadian stores yet but in very selected retailers. So hopefully they are easier to find later on.

    1. wonder if it's just me or most people would rather not receive fragrance samples in their beauty boxes. Feel fragrance is a very individualized and personal preference and I can only wear a very limited scent as strong scents make me have headaches. I am loving the Epic Blend so far. Very moisturizing and with all the natural ingredients make them so awesome.

  4. The honey & oats soap looks lovely. On a side note...I love your theme/header. It looks like a Great Gatsby cover but in pink. Two of my favorite things!
