My September Glymm Box is here!

Posted on September 15, 2011 by Elaine

Ok guys, this is a HUGE record for me, I totally hope you appreciate this 😛 I’m not known to be the most timely blogger (usually I write about events that happened weeks ago and products and clothes I wore months ago!).  I just received my September Glymm box and quickly took pictures.  I thought I should post right away since readers may be interested in seeing what a Glymm box looks like!


If you’re unfamiliar with the concept of the Glymm Box I suggest you check out this post.

I was super excited to get home since I saw all the tweets on Twitter of people getting their boxes!  So let’s get on with it!

Gorgeous Glymm Box – so girly!

IMG_4327
…and Jelly Bellys!!!!  I LOOOVE these things!!!!!
So there you have it!!  My amazing Glymm Box, definitely did not disappoint.  I’m sure you will see many other posts floating around  the blogesphere since the Glymm Boxes were delivered this week.  I’m looking forward to hearing what you think about yours!  Please leave me comments here or on facebook!! 🙂
I really hope if the winner of my September Glymm Box giveaway is reading she will let me know what she thinks 🙂
If you’d like an invite code to join Glymm.com you can use mine:  http://www.glymm.com/share/elainea please note that if you use my invite link I will earn 50 Glymm points which I will use towards more Glymm boxes and products 😉

    HI Elaine, let me tell you how excited i was about your reveal.I have heard great things about John Master Organics products (love how natural they are) and didn’t know that you get full size products too with the Glymm box. I’m going to check them out- i like the idea of a box of surprises every month 🙂

A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk ab A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk about here. 🫤 I’ll be reaching out to the company in question to make them aware of the situation, but I wanted to share it with you all as well. 

How is this type of thing still happening, even in the age of AI? If a high-tech “smart tool” can’t properly recognize and accommodate diverse skin tones, then it needs further development and should not yet be released. End of story. 

Use your purchasing power to support brands that are inclusive in their product development, testing, promotion, AND corporate structure. Every action has impact.

Getting to play with the re-release of @lancomeofficial #JuicyTubes has been such a fun throwback! ✨ I remember thinking they were the ultimate ~Cool Girl~ makeup product when they first came out and reading about them as a beauty must-have in every magazine (J14 anyone?! 😂) They were basically the “grown up” version of Lip Smackers! 

Gotta say, applying one of their trademark frosted, shiny shades now is making 12 year old me *very* happy. 

Now excuse me while I reapply Lavender Latte and blast some Britney 👄💿

Do you remember these 00s classics?

Their Date Night special (usually $120, which is still an amazing deal) is only $90 until further notice! 

We had an amazing experience there and left feeling so full and so happy. The chef even made me a special entree (with no advance notice) when I wasn’t able to eat the other options because of my allergies 🥹. Now that’s service!

Real ones know: @kjh.brand IS that girl when it co Real ones know: @kjh.brand IS that girl when it comes to versatile, innovative products with stunning payoff. ✨

Their Soft Smudge Lip & Cheek stick is incredible. A cream-to-powder formula(!!!!), this baby is buildable, blendable, and beautiful. 

Plus, with just a drop of KJH.Brand Hyper Shine Serum, it transforms into a glossy, rich sheen of luxurious color. 

I’ve used it on my eyes, lips, and cheeks in both glossy and matte textures, and love it each time. It’s genuinely like having 5 products in one. 😍

Have you tried anything from @kjh.brand yet?

Gang’s all here! 👯‍♀️ I truly love the Gang’s all here! 👯‍♀️

I truly love these @milkmakeup Cooling Water Jelly Tints and wear at least one daily on some combo of eyes, lips, and cheeks. The color payoff is 🤯, the longevity is 😍. They’ve got vegan collagen and aloe to plump and soothe skin. 

For an easy, juicy burst of color this summer, grab yours at @sephoracanada! 🌊
