September Goodiebox

Yes yes I know - VERY late review, I do hope you don't mind to much tough. I'm expecting to blog a lot more now that I got a new and awesome phone with an awesome camera and a nice little "light box" to use for pictures. All I need now is some lights to help it, but all in time. I still haven't received my order from the Models Own sale, but as soon as it arrives ill of course show off my purchases.

Goodiebox is a danish equivalent of BirchBox and Glossybox
EDC means Endoctrine disrupting chemicals. The ingredients in red is EDC´s from the EU list of 17 that has been proven harmfull

This months theme is Rock It Up, inspired by the one and only Lady Gaga who recently performed in Copenhagen.

All together!  

 

Diesel, Loveoverdose perfume

The perfume is described as a fresh and fruity scent with notes of orange flowers and liquorice. I do like the full size flagon, very girly! I cant tell if its good or not since of allergies

Retail is 275Dkr, get it HERE

David Beckham, The Essence por homme perfume

In my opinion 99,9% of perfumes for men stink. You better make your own opinions on this XD

Retail is 230Dkr, get it HERE

Oriflame Beauty Eyeliner Stylo

To me, Oriflame is equal to old ladies that don't know quality and just need something to smear on the face twice a year when there is a party - Cheap and bad quality. No offense to anyone but that's how I perceived it, so I was pretty curios to if they changed since my mom would receive her monthly packages back in 1990ies. Well... This stinks. Literally. Like benzine or turpentine or something like that. YUCK! That went straight to the garbage can.

It also contains  methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben 

Retail is 110Dkr (wheres the days where Oriflame was cheap??), get it HERE

Oriflame Beauty Eyebrow Kit

After the disaster of the eyeliner I was less than positive when opening this one. Luckily this isn't so bad. It´s not amazing but it does what its suppose to. A good beginners kit i´d say. Decent pigment and the wax is easy to use as well.

Retail is 69Dkr, Get it HERE

Nutrilett Hunger Control Bar

A diet bar in a beautybox. Good grief. Like the diet supplement in the previous box, this just rubs me the wrong way. I also dislike these things in general. Eat a fucking apple if you need a healthy snack, not some mineral added candy bar. They claim it can be eaten instead of breakfast and just to be clear: Then you fuck up your body. The breakfast needs a lot more to keep you going till lunch. It is body physics 101: To keep the engine running to burn off calories, you need to eat 3 main meals and 3 snacks a day. That way you keep your sugar level steady and your burner burning. 

Retail is 19,95Dkr and you can get it here HERE

Lóreal Proffessionel Abondance De Cacao Shampoo

I LOVE chocolate and incidently cacao! You can practically sell me any product as long as it contains chocolate lol. The shampoo is designed specifically for fine Scandinavian hair - which I don't have. Oh well maybe it will do something nice for my hair to. What I love about this is that its PARABEN FREE and no silicone either! The bottle got this nice rough "natural" feel about it

Retail is 118Dkr but Nicehair has it for only 98Dkr. Get it HERE

Orofluido Elixir

Dye my hair pink and call me Lucy! WOW!!! What a gem to receive! I heard nothing but praise to this hair-oil-that-isn't-quite-a-hair-oil. There is something about this that makes me feel like I'm sucked into Arabian nights. The color, the logo, the bottle. Like I'm a princess getting pampered. 

Ad to dry or damp hair, lenght and tips not scalp! Its filled with good stuff like argan, cyprus and lin oil. It also contains perfume but I hope I can use it anyway. unfortunately it also contains Cyclotetrasiloxane ::( Bummer! 

Retail is 129Dkr but Nicehair got it for 77,40Dkr. Get it HERE

Max Factor Face Finity 3-in-one All Day Flawless Foundation

Primer, concealer and foundation in one. I'm all for products with more than one use! They got 5 shades available and its paraben free

Retail is 149Dkr, Get it HERE

Fun Fact of the Day: Artistic nail art is not a modern invention. The Incas painted eagles on their nails

April Goodiebox

Goodiebox is the danish equivalent to Glossybox and Birchbox

EDC means Endoctrine disrupting chemicals. Group 1 is the 17 EDC who is proven to be harmful to humans and the environment.

I awaited this box impatiently, as I was unsure if I would renew my subscription or not. I can confidently say that I WILL, as its just amazing and its clear that Goodiebox have taken the critique seriously and toned down the hype. 

This box is inspired by Coco Chanel and her famous quote "Simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance" and apparently danish woman has taken this to heart; The most part of the beauty budget of danish woman is used on basic products for the hair and skin and as any makeup artist will tell you, a skin well cared for is the best basis of beautiful makeup. 

And honestly, who doesn't feel more beautiful when you used a good body butter or brushing your hair after using a hair treatment? 

Nice, white and black as always. Elegance is a must!

And time to remove the silk paper

Here's the goodies!

Urtekram Nordic Birch Shampoo, normal hair

Urtekram is a danish vegan brand who prides themselves in using organic and ecological ingredients, where most of them is grown right here in Denmark! The shampoo is filled with neat ingredients such as coconut oil, jojoba oil, aloe vera and extract from birch leafs. There is no EDC´s from list 1 in it! I find that the pump is very clever and I'm looking forward to try it out

Derma Eco 24H creme, Normal/combined skin

Derma eco is another ecological brand. This one got the swan mark (A Nordic label given to products that meets the strict criteria of environmental friendly produce as well as to allergens in the product) as well as certified by the Asthma and Allergy union, who helps people with allergies use the best products. As the name suggest many of the ingredients is ecological - 20% to be exact.  Like any creme with respect for itself it has sheabutter and aloe vera but also glycerine and Olea Europaea Fruit Oil. The ingredients list is actually very short which is always a good thing. No EDC´s or perfume in either

MaxFactor ageless elixir

Foundation and serum in one. I doubt ill try this, as its to dark for me (I'm ivory skinned). I like the idea tough of nutritious foundation. However, Max Factor is really bad when it comes to EDC´s and I was not surprised to find that this product contains Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Methylparaben, Ethylhexyl, and Cyclotetrasiloxane all of which is in group 1! You DO NOT want this on your skin, no way no how.

Dr. Hauschka Body Care Kit

This got me so exited! The box is cool and I only heard good things about this brand! I must admit that I didn't search every single thing in this box for EDC´s but I looked through the ingredients lists and checked anything that sounded EDC like. It doesn't seem like there is any and that is great news! I will let you know when I get to check all of them, in case I find any. A little warning tough, a lot of these products contain PEANUT OIL, so beware if you have allergies

Included in the set, in neat travel sizes:  Quince Body Moisturizer, Rose Body Moisturizer, Rose Body Oil, Lemon Lemongrass Body Oil, Hand Cream, Rose Body Wash, Lemon Body Wash, and Lemon Bath

All in all I'm more than pleased with this box, and be sure that ill purchase the May box as well! If you re danish and like to subscribe to Goodiebox, then visit their website Goodiebox

February Goodiebox

Many of you already know this concept. Its like Birchbox and Glossybox just for Danes! I was exited when I learned about this,  hoping it wouldn't be a box of pharmacy sized samples from unknown brands. My doubts was put to shame, and I'm defiantly going to continue to get Goodiebox each and every month! The price is all right as well - 119dkr including shipping. That's approx 13£ or 20$

Without further delays, let me present my Goodiebox! Ill keep posting about the products as I try them out :D

A white box with purple string. Purple is my favorite color, so this just added to the joy! Even my cat was curios lol

Black paper and the logo - Classy! 

And here we are - its like Christmas! 

Weleda Havtorn (sea buck thorn) hand lotion

Essie nail polish (full size!) in Peach Daiquiri. It is from a line that's apparently not yet released in Denmark. Regardless, the color is right up my alley! Looking forward to find out what the fuzz is about

Max factor 2000 calories mascara - full size! 

Moringa Body butter from Body shop - Mmmm! This is such a treat to my skin after the winter!

Nutriganics smoothing Serum sample from the Body shop - Small one-time sample but still nice

And a little extra, Chocolate covered Liquorice almonds!

All in all im extremely pleasently surprised! If they keep this up, they will have a regular costumer for years!
