Happy girl here!

My box really needs to come, I hope I get that blush shade.

I'm most excited about the hair mist, face cream, and shower gel.

I don't do lip balms, the blush looks too dark, and I'm not a big fan of the bulgari scent.
After trying out the hair mist on my fine hair, I've come to realize that there is a fine line between beautiful beach waves and coiffure de la crazy cat lady.  My hair is swaying toward the latter

. 

Also, when looking for a swatch of the blush in "Lovely", I read on some random blog that they could be used as an eyeshadow as well- both wet and dry!

Lol, I have fine hair and I hope it doesn't get all crazy with the mist. That's a good tip  thanks!

I can't wait to receive my April box! In the meantime, I got a March box again because apparently, there was a shipment failure last month (I suppose that means I didn't get a March box, though I did). They also included a Pixi magic lip tint and a Fresh mattifying serum sample to make up for it. Thanks, Glossybox!

Theyre a mess, enjoy your goodies.

I got mine, the coffeemint shower gel was exploded all over my box. I'm so disappointed, it smells fantastic but it made a giant mess with the paper confetti and was completely empty. 

Sorry to hear that /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

So here's my box. Not my favorite because I have a mint allergy/intolerance and no bath tub. But I may try other non mint things from the brands that I haven't already.

My box is out for delivery

 

[tasertag]

Looks like GB put the April Box contents on their website.. All of the boxes have the same items just different shades if there are different shades.

And mine is out for delivery

Yeah, I suggest to spray in sections and hold the bottle about 8 inches away so it doesn't really saturate the hair. Otherwise it really weighed mine down. Also, I slept with it in, and it looked pretty good after a quick brush through the next day!

[lilsxkitten]

Yes! I read the same random blog. I think I will try that. The color I got is AWAKEN. LOL re Hair Mist. I was actually disappointed I couldn't try it. (I have a Keratin treatment in my hair and need to stay away from products with Sodium), but now I am glad I must pass. My hair could go into crazy land on it's own thank you! Which is why I get a keratin treatment in the first place!

I know people who got that treatment really love it!

 

[latinafeminista]

Got my box! I got the brilliance color in the blush, so pretty but disappointed it has parabens as I try to stay away from those. That's the only disappointment though! I love the lip balm, I got it in purely simple and it very moisturizing. Excited to try everything else /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I know this is early, but do you think Glossybox will have a "Birthday" box for May, or do you think they will make a "Birthday" box as part of a limited edition box?? I am excited to see what they do for their birthday month!! I can't wait to get my April box, but I am more excited for May.

oh wow that would be awesome. i didnt know they were reaching their anniversary month. how old are they? 1 year?

still waiting on my box here - my expected date is 5/01 - 5/02 

 

[tasertag]

I got my box!

For the items that have variation, I got the Tigi Awaken and the Lavender Mint lip balm.

ALSO, I received Zoya Tracie from the FUN promo code.

  I really thought they'd forget it because I didn't really know if it applied to my order correctly and I've been reading about people not getting the extras from the other promo codes.

They should be doing something, they did something for their 2 year anniversary here in Germany.

That's great, I used that code for my Mothers day box so I hope it works too.

That is an awesome idea! An anniversary box would be great. And not too early to think about at all. May is almost here!

I liked what I received this month, but I cancelled, I hadn't really been as crazy about the past boxes I've received as I expected. I hope to see better stuff so I can resub! But with my luck all the good stuff will start rolling in now that I cancelled! 

 can't wait to see what everyone gets next month!

 

[emmzk25]

Got my box today. Not really sure it fits with the slogan for the month...work that beauty? but still not bad. Not sure how to add pictures to a spoiler ....I probably need to get more tech savvy. I got 

- honestco lavender mint - bvlgari bath tea bag - wash with joe - Alterna bamboo style boho waves
-tigi brilliance glow blush. 
I have pics and details on the blog, and will try to figure out how to upload a pic /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
