Zoya Nail Polish - Summer 2012 is going to be a super stylish season for nails with the latest offering, designed by the Zoya experts. It is kissed by sea and sand with the famous, full-coverage Zoya formula. Full size! 0.5oz/$8.00
LOVE the colour they sent. Not sure if it shows up to it's full potential in the photo, but it's a beautiful shimmery purple with silver microflecks. It actually reminds me quite a bit of the purple shade in the NARS Eurydice eyeshadow duo I posted last month. I want to take off my nail polish and try this stuff right now!
Zoya Nail Polish in Carly (it's quite a bit more purple in person), 0.5oz/$8.00
Alessandro International - Pedix Heel Rescue Balm protects and nourishes your skin with shea butter, allantoin and tea-tree oil. 100mL/$19.95
I really liked the last foot cream I got from Glossybox - I believe it was Curel - and I finished the tube of it a few weeks ago. So I was glad to receive another one to try out. That being said, this one is WAY more expensive than the last one (it was 100mL/$3.99), and the tube is much smaller. It does have a rather nice, peppermint-y scent to it. We'll see whether this is worth the rather ridiculous price tag.

John Frieda Frizz-Ease Xtra Strength Serum - Instantly and dramatically transforms coarse, wiry, unruly frizz for ultra-sleek, purely polished, super-shiny results. Full size! 50mL/$14.99
This stuff has been around forever. I remember my friend's using it back in junior high. I've always had fairly straight hair, and while it does occasionally get a bit frizzy, it's never been enough to warrant using a serum. But, since I now have this, I guess I'll give it a try and see what happens! Hopefully it won't end up making my hair too greasy...

Eucerin - Eucerin Calming Creme is a daily soothing moisturizer that prevents the reoccurrence of itchiness and reduces the risk of further irritation due to dryness. Calming Creme contains Natural Colloidal Oatmeal and its fragrance-free glycerin formula provides hydration for 24 hours. 200g/$12.00
Again, another product that's been on the market for quite some time. The sample is very tiny, but I can always use another moisturizer to throw in my purse. Probably my least favourite sample of the box.

Dove Softening Creme Body Wash - Get visibly more beautiful skin in just 1 week. Use daily for soft, smooth skin. Full size! 200mL/$5.99
Hurray for full size products! Not a super exciting sample, but I can take it to the cottage or something. From a first impression, it looks like it will be quite moisturizing, and has the traditional Dove soap smell.

BeautySoClean Sanitizer Wipes - These convenient cosmetic sanitizer wipes are effective for sanitizing makeup that accumulates visible debris like dust, lint and food particles. 48 pack wipes/$12.50
This sample came with a pamphlet that I've been terrified to read as I'm sure it will tell me that all of my makeup products are completely contaminated by germs. Gross. And I really don't want to have to throw out all of my lipsticks or something. But I think these wipes are a pretty neat idea, and I'll definitely be using them on a few of my most-used products. I'm just going to avoid that pamphlet...
BeautySoClean Sanitizer Wipes, 48 pack wipes/$12.50
And that's it for this month! Overall, I'd say it was a 50/50 box. I really like the nail polish, and the foot cream and sanitizer wipes will be useful. The body wash and lotion, probably not so much. But as per usual, the full-size John Frieda sample paid for the cost of the box. Not too shabby!
