Glossybox is a subscription box that sends out five beauty, skin care or hair samples each month. A monthly subscription starts at $21/month but it goes down if you purchase multiple months up front. One thing to note about Glossybox is that it does ship super late in the month. For example, the November Glossybox didn’t get to me until the first part of December.
While there aren’t really swatches for the November Glossybox you should still watch the video for more in depth opinions on the products.
The first item in my November Glossybox was a bottle of Kneipp Herbal Bath in Lavender. For this product you would pour half of the bottle into the bath and then soak in it for a bit making this good for two uses.
The second item in my November Glossybox was Juice Beauty’s Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer. I’ve actually received the Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist in a previous Ipsy bag.
The third item in my November Glossybox was 12 Benefits Instant Healthy Hair Treatment. I also received this in a previous Ipsy bag, while it’s a good product I have other leave-in products that I like a lot more and are easier to purchase.
The fourth item in my November Glossybox was a full-size item. So Susan Universal Blush is a dusky pink shade that supposedly looks good on all skin tones.
The last item in the November Glossybox was an exclusive full-size OPI Nail Lacquer for Glossybox. The shade is a pale pink color that is very similar in shade to Glossybox‘s pink boxes and is appropriately titled “Pink Outside the Glossybox”.

My November Glossybox cost me $20 and I received $57.14 worth of products. My favorite item from this month’s box is the OPI “Pink Outside the Glossybox” Nail Lacquer as OPI is one of my favorite nail polish brands. My least favorite item from this months box was pretty much everything else. That’s one issue with Glossybox, while they usually have super great value the items can be hit and miss. November’s Glossybox‘s was, unfortunately, a miss for me.

I don’t really switch up my beauty routine all that often, so i would worry that some of the boxes wouldn’t have any products I really need. At the same time, I love that OPI nail polish color!
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
I love that you got a full size OPI, but I don’t know if I love that shade. I like bold colors on my nails and that one wouldn’t even show LOL. Otherwise, it sounds like a great haul this month.
Aisha Kristine Chong says
Seems like a great bunch of collections in just one box – anyone would love that!
Franc Ramon says
Too bad that your items for the month was more of a miss than a hit. On the flipside, you did get a big discount on the subscription box and got some items you like.
Terri Ramsey Beavers says
Thank you so much for sharing this subscription box. I would love the nail lacquer in the pale pink and even more so if it comes in white. Both colors are so boho chic. I’d also love the Kneipp Herbal Bath in Lavender. Lavender is my relaxing scent when my pain level gets out of control. I’ll check the glossybox out further.
Heather says
This looks like a fun subscription. I could use some new skin and hair products.
XmasDolly says
Hmmm are those sizes worth the $21.00 per month or maybe other months are better and makes up for it. I like the idea that you can send a product back for something else too. The only thing in that box I like really is the blush. I’m pretty adamant about my facial products though. I’m an Olay fan and so was my mother before me and my daughter uses it too. 🙂
Cassie says
Size wise they really are a good value for the money. Glossybox never sends out foil packets or anything like that. The disadvantage for Glossybox is that you may not always like the types of products.

Seems like this box was really good value for money. I really like the look of the OPI polish and the blush.
Echo says
Looks like a great box! I love OPI nail polish. They have so many great colors!
Mama to 5 BLessings says
What a great selection of beauty products. Some sound even good enough to eat!
Eileen says
Looks like you got a lot of goodies in your November glossy box. I’d like to try that 12 benefits hair treatment, I think my hair could really use it.
Michelle Hwee says
Wow you have a great box there! I love all the products that came with it too, I think the OPI or Juice Beauty ones are my favorite. Love the video as well!
Rebecca Swenor says
This is a great box indeed for the price for sure. I would love to try the Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer. Thanks for sharing.
Myrabev says
I used to have a subscription to glossybox but due to the hit and miss (too often for me) i left and since i had the love me beauty box which had better products.
April @ Everyday Fitness and Nutrition says
It would be fun to try new items like this every month. The lavender bath sounds great to me! I could definitely use a little balance right about now!
Stephanie says
Wow you got a bunch of neat products to try! About the only one I knew anything about was the OPI nail polish. Looks like a great way to get some new products, and even hand some down to my daughter. 🙂
Penny Struebig says
Ummmm…I’d never heard of this box before. I’ve subscribed to Birchbox and Ipsy, but didn’t know anything about this one. I’m glad you did a reivew.
