September’s GLOSSYBOX selection was a collaboration with Joyann King, Digital Director of Harper’s BAZAAR. Joyann is always on the hunt for the best new products and the latest colors; now she’s shared her finds with us. With a fantastic assortment that includes everything from skincare essentials to bold mascara, Joyann’s vanity must-haves are not to be missed.
- ESSIE Nail Polish in “Madison Ave-Hue” $8.50 FULL SIZE Chic upper east side pink nail polish steps out in style, perfectly punctuating any ensemble with quiet luxe.
ESSIE is definitely a leading name in nail polish. It’s hard to resist walking past the display full of bright colors and classic hues. The playful pink of Madison Ave-Hue is no exception. Both bold and sublime, this modern color will fit nicely with both day and night looks. - Vichy LiftActiv Night $50.00 / 1.69 oz – TOP PICK 24 hour moisturizing night cream that provides a lasting, lifting effect.
I’m religious about nighttime moisturizing. I may not remember to grab my lotion during a hectic morning, but I look forward to my evening routine of cleansing and repairing. LiftActiv from VICHY is a dessert whip for your face. Thick without being greasy, just a dab each night before bed and my face shows the difference. LiftActiv offers 24 hours of hydration so busy morning bees (like me) don’t turn into a dry leaf by lunch time. - BVLGARI Eau Parfumée Au thé Blanc Conditioner $45.00 / 6.76 oz – A gentle cream hair conditioner softens hair and helps make it easy to brush.
Smooth – that’s the first word that comes to mind after trying this conditioner. My hair isn’t unhealthy, but it tends to frizz up just a few hours after it dries. After trying this conditioner, there was a noticeable difference. My ends were smoother, softer, and less prone to fly-aways. It also has a soft, clean smell that reminds me more of hand lotion than the typical bold scent of conditioner. - LIP TAR in “Authentic” $18.00 FULL SIZE Lip Tar, from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, is a liquid lipstick with pigment intensity and wear time.
I was disappointed in the LIP TAR. Yes, it’s long wearing and intense color. That’s because it really does go on like tar. I didn’t enjoy the feeling of my lips being both oily and sticky at the same time. Later, my lips felt dried out. This one is a ‘no’ for me. - They’re Real! Mascara $23.00 / 0.3 oz – They’re real! lengthens, curls, volumizes, lifts & separates. A specially designed brush reveals lashes you never knew you had!
My lashes are thick and require a wand that separates so I don’t end up with a black curtain around my eyes. Unfortunately, I didn’t find this mascara did the best job with that. But, if you need to PLUMP your lashes, They’re Real! will get the job done. It goes on strong and thickens your lashes from the root up.

September's box offered a great variety of products, with a few I'm already eager to buy full size. Unfortunately two of the products didn't perform well for me, though they might for other shoppers.
