Goodiebox: February '13

Hey guys. So I recieved my Goodiebox just a couple of days before February was over, it's really too bad that the send it out so late in the month. (Oh yeah and me posting this so late, I have no excuse for) Anyways, here's what I got:

So this is what the box looked like when it was just opened. The theme of this box was Celebration because it's exactly one year ago since the Goodiebox launched in Denmark. Unfortunately both my friend and I were disappointed by this box and neither of us think that it's very celebratory.


 Here we have a perfume sample of the Helena Christensen Dreams perfume. Somehow I never imagined this perfume would smell good, but it absolutely does! It's a wonderful girly mix of a powdery and floral scent. Powder scents are my favorite and I love this. Next is the Flowerbomb showergel by Viktor and Rolf. I'm going to tell you right here right now: when I was young, child young, I loved to spritz one spritz of all my mother's perfumes on my body all at once. The result was a horrible perfume-sickening stench which was best followed by a shower. This showergel smells exactly like all those perfumes mixed together, just as strongly and horribly as back then. I'm certainly curious to try this and even see if I feel clean afterwards. I also have happened to realize that this is the body wash of the new perfume which is out and everybody is raving about.Lastly is a Plaisir Body Lotion and this too smells really strongly of perfume, but in a nicer way - it's weird..
 Part of why my friend and I were so disappointed in this Goodiebox was the full-size cotton rounds that came with it.. - Yippie... To the cotton rounds' left are little samples of Eucering Dermo Purifyer Cleanser and Hydrating Care.

Now this is where I got the most excited, a INK eye intensifier by Dennis Knudsen. Dennis Knudsen is a fancy-pansy makeup person-somethingalongthoselines in Denmark whose brand of makeup is very expensive, needles to say that's why I got excited. I got the colour 10 Purple and I haven't formed my opinion on it yet.
That's it for this month, now enjoy spring and love one another!

Goodiebox: January '13

Hello fellas and welcome to this Goodiebox post! So it finally seems that the Goodiebox system has started to function better, it has also been a full year! I have however only received Goodieboxes three times including this time because I wasn't happy with the unproffesioanlity of it, but now it's been a full year for the Goodiebox team and I think they're getting the hang of it.
So here's my January Goodiebox, yes they do deliver the boxes at weird times. But without further ado, lets go -


Here's the box. The theme for January month was organic.

 I really like that the Goodiebox team likes to put edible or drinkable things in here so this month the send this Yogi ginger tea and a little snack bar but I already ate that. Despite this having 63% pure ginger in here, I don't feel like it tastes like ginger. You do however get the warmth of ginger in the mouth but not so much the taste which suits me fine because I'm not a huge ginger fan ;)

 Some lotions and cremes. From left to right: Matas generic natural brand (Danish drugstore) handlotion with gojiberry and organic aloe vera, a soothing Ecobeauty day cream from Oriflame and lastly a non-scented body lotion from Decubal. I like the idea of non-scented things, but I hate it when they're non-scented and then have that creme smell and unfortunately this one does, but I'm sure I'll get it used up anyway :) By the way, both the day cream and bodylotion are full-size!

Some samples, left to right: Mádara tinted face cream, John Masters firming eye gel and lastly Philip Martin's Body shower juice, juice omg! That sounds so exciting, I'm looking alot forwad to using these!

Keep an eye out for empties where I will review some of these products, February favorites and Goodiebox.
