Wantable Accessories December 2013 Review

Wantable
Cost: $36 per month
What is Wantable?

We create unique customer profiles by asking customers a series of product and personality questions. We then use this data to introduce customers to assortments of products perfectly suited to their personal taste.

Since I already receive so much make-up, I wanted to try something else, so I purchased the Wantable Accessories box (I was able to get this box and the intimates box on sale on Cyber Monday!).
The Wantable Accessories box arrived today and this time I held it together, before tearing open the box.
I am excited to get some new products coming in.

The box is a blank white glossy box with the Wantable logo and inside is foam to hold each item safely in the box.

These are the lovely three pieces I received based on my beauty profile filled out.

The Regina Earnings ($20) are gorgeous! I just love the style, it is sooooooo my style! I am the type that will wear these with a plain black sweater and some jeans...lol

The Cassandra Necklace ($36) has two gold chains suspending the multi-colored gems. The chain is pretty long and will look fabulous with a sweater dress!

Sylvia Bracelet ($22) are all separate strands on an elastic cord. The silver accents are perfect for my lovely Black dress I have picked out for work!

My preferences that triggered these great finds are listed above! You take the profile test and it triggers what might suit you. I must say that the test did not disappoint, it was a perfect match to my style!
I think that at $39 for all three pieces, they did great on the price range for the pieces!
Did you get your Wantable box yet? Which one did you get?
Stay tuned for my review on the  Intimates box!

One thing you will gradually learn about me, is that I love new stuff... it really does not matter what it is!

Every Beauty box I receive I like to review not only the quality and value of the box,- but also the products inside. Every Beauty box I will find one beauty item I think is either useful, marvelous, or just plain fab and reveal the reasons why!

With that said, let's dive into my favorite November 2013 Glossybox fave.

Mastey Full Sized Color Protection Color Protecting Leave-In Oil Treatment $25.00

I received this Full sized product last week and was able to review the top reasons why this item was the best out of many (you can locate the full November 2013 Glossybox Review here).

The product smells clean and is not overpowering. If you wear your hair strait like I do and use a straight iron almost everyday, then this product is for you. The product was highly concentrated, which means my product would last for at least a month (every other day application). As soon as applied you can immediately notice a nice sheen and for me this allowed me to skip a day of flat ironing, because my ends did not look as tattered.

Here are a few more reasons, why I made this super-product my best friend:

 Protects from thermal damage

• Speeds up drying time

• Revitalizes and repairs your hair

• Made with certified argan oil

• Seals the cuticle and protects color

• Enriched with Omega - 3, 6 AND 9, lipids,
anti-oxidants, vitamin E and natural moisture

• 100% VEGAN

• NO PARABENS OR HARSH PRESERVATIVES

• GLUTEN-FREE

• NO SODIUM CHLORIDE

The beautifully packaged makeup boxes are sure to delight and each box will be received with excitement. beauty boxes arrive each month and contain expert beauty tips on how to look beautiful with your new cosmetic samples.

Here is how your box will arrive! I am so excited... I cheated and saw some of the other "sneak peeks" to see what's in here! One thing about the sneak peeks though, is that you can watch them but you never know exactly what color, type, or product will be coming your box... mainly do to selections being based on your beauty profile.

Opening Glossybox is like a dream, as one of the better packed boxes Glossybox is one of the Top Requested Boxes out there! I knew it was on my  list, but I just couldn't wait!

Had to do another pic of the soft pink box with Glossybox logo.

Opening your Glossybox is always like receiving a Luxury Gift from Paris! I am getting so excited just looking at the pink ribbon holding the delicate paper around my beauty products!

Inside a theme card awaits "Holiday Romance" (you had me at hello Glossybox )

Within the theme card is a listing of all the contents and a listing of the products "Full Size" value. The reason that Glossybox is highly sought, Glossybox actually sends a lot of  high end "Full size" items in their boxes.

Here are some of the items received and the price points. I like looking up prices myself based on the actual item I received, to cross check the value (although, I wouldn't stop getting this box for the world). 

Here are all my lovelies!!!!! I have a breakdown below.

The Aloe Source Jojoba Radiance Cleaning Polish $5  for  1 oz (Full size is $30 for 6.7 oz)

Never tried this line before...I  just love trying new facial cleansers!

Mastey Full Sized Color Protection Color Protecting Leave-In Oil Treatment $25.00

Full sized... this was revealed on the sneak peek and I must say that I am a definite fan (darn...part of my Mastery spilled in the box, luckily it was only a tad, so I still can use a lot of it)

Vincent Longo Duo Eye Pencil  full size 0.056 oz $26 

Nicka K New York Professional Eyeshadow Brush $5

Emite Full Size Makeup Micronized Eye Shadow in Dams  .05oz  $25

This was the most full size products I have ever received (with the exception of my Total Beauty Collections).

Of course, I have already tried on just about everything in my Glossybox! 

The Vincent Longo Duo Eye Pencil is fantastic, I received the Lime/Forest Duo which is the best thing I found thus far! the liner is high pigmented and the Lime has a slightly metallic hint to it. The Forest color is the darkest green black liner I have ever tried and I love it!

I think this will be my go to liner for now on... Amazing color choices for Brown eyes! 

I haven't tried the eye-shadow brush yet, but every girl needs an ample supply of eye-shadow brushes.

The Emite Eye Shadow in Dams looks black and slightly intimidating (due to it being highly pigmented), but it goes on with a rather light coverage. This is definitely blend-able and I love a good smokey eye!

Did you get your Glossybox yet? What did you think?

Stay tuned on the review of my favorite product out of the November 2013 Glossybox!
