Fall Luxe Box

Loose Button, the folks behind Luxe Box, recently changed the frequency of their monthly boxes to a quarterly offer. A tad pricier with the promise of more full-size product and samples that are even more, luxe.

Yet again, communication regarding shipping and when I could expect the box to arrive was extremely thorough. The packaging was very chic and I liked the fact that it looked completely different from the last go-around. 
Again, a customized sticker {this time initial only} adorned the envelope containing full details of what was included in the package. A nice touch.
My goodies included 3 full-size items {nail polish, a cream eye shadow and a liquid eyeliner} that seemed to be chosen based on feedback I provided to their team. And a huge yay to no more perfume samples! 
Also in the box was a small loofah {I'm honestly not sure if it's meant to be used for face or body?}, a fairly large sample of Goldwell hair gel that my husband is loving, a keratase product sample that I can't wait to try, and a newly released Kamin's eye cream that is exquisitely rich yet hasn't irritated my sensitive eyes at all. Really loving this one.

Yet again, they got it right for the season with a metallic China Glaze polish that looks pretty alone or on top of a colored polish. 
This one won't last long.
Nor will the lilac eyeliner {I know!} that I have been wearing daily. Made by Marcelle, a Canadian brand, it has lived up to it's claim to last a ridiculously long time and it takes seconds to apply. 
Worth a look at the drug store for sure.
I haven't tried the liquid eyeliner yet as I'm still working my way through a current tube but am excited to give it a go. 

If you get a Luxe Box, please share...I am so curious to know if the goodies were similar. 
Happy Monday!

The Luxe Box Arrives

So, I have been more than a little jealous envious of all the U.S. bloggers posting pictures of the goodies they have been receiving in their Birchbox each month. 

I'm not ashamed to admit it. 

I ogled pictures, read a ridiculous amount of reviews...and promptly put myself on the waiting list for our own Luxebox.

I received my first box (or rather boxes) late last week after receiving a confirmation of delivery email the day before.

Pretty impressive.

Goodies above included a few perfume samples (meh), 2 packages of Frederic Fekkai's hair product samples, a full-size Essie polish in a gorgeous, perfect.for.summer hue and a tube of Olay's wrinkle repair. 
The second box above (the white one) contained items for "bath and body". 
It contained a Venus razor (always welcome) and a second tube of Olay wrinkle repair (ditto).

My favorite item?
Definitely the Essie polish. 

I must say I giggled like a school girl when I received the boxes in the mail. It was not unlike the surprise bags you could purchase when we were kids. Never knowing what you might get.
Anyone remember those or am I showing my age again?


I'm giving this month's box a solid 10 for presentation. (loved the personalized sticker :: such a nice touch).
And a 6 for content only because I wouldn't call these samples "luxe" in any way other than the polish as mentioned above. Pretty sure you could pick up these fragrance and hair care samples at your local department or beauty specialty store. 


Let's see what next month's holds.
