This came as a surprise/moment of scramble for me when I saw that my credit card was charged for a January box while I was in China.  I freaked out for a bit, but after logging on, I noticed that I was just simply on a monthly subscription that just needed to be canceled.  After figuring that out, I said "The heck with it! Another GlossyBox wouldn't hurt."  Thus the arrival of the Man Repeller x GlossyBox collaboration in my mailbox.

The Man Repeller x GlossyBox 2013

This month's box is a collaboration with Leandra of The Man Repeller.  Although I'm not that familiar with The Man Repeller, but I do see and hear of her on the fashion blogosphere.  When I do come upon her, I sort of picture her together with people like The Sartorialist and Aimee Song (both of whom I really admire).  Very awesome people!

This month's box consists of a full sized Glamazon Pure Performance 12-Hour Lipstick in Fierce, a full sized OPI Liquid Sand nail polish in Can't Let Go, a sample packet of Le Metier De Beaute Replenishing Daily Solution, an Estee Lauder Sumtuois Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara sample, Fresh Umbrian Clay Mattifying Serum sample (that I forgot to include in the picture!), a Narcisco Rodriguez fragrance sample, and a hair product, Potion 9, from Sebastian Professional.

I think this month's box is definitely a box that's more bang for your buck.  With one full sized lipstick that's worth more than the box itself, along with some deluxe sized samples... Glossy Box never seems to fail my expectations of giving THE best beauty samples.  Although now that I look back at my previous boxes, some are misses, while some are well worth the money.  Though I'd definitely splurge on the special collaboration boxes as the selections of beauty samples aren't that puny.  

So how are you enjoying your Glossy Box?  I can't wait to give the OPI nail polish a try and also swatch that Tarte lipstick on my lips.  The Tarte lipstick is also my first red lipstick!  Which means I've never worn red lipstick before... so I'm not too sure if I can rock it.  But I'll see how it goes... :)
