October 2016 GoodieBox

Updated on March 5th, 2024

I have received my third GoodieBox, which is a Danish beauty subscription box. The theme for October was Magasin, which is a high-end department store chain in Denmark.

I received 5 full-sized and travel sized items that came in a dark red box and were wrapped in tissue paper.
Balance Me Instant Lift Pore Minimiser (Full Size): The minimiser smooths and moisturizes the skin while reducing the appearance of pores and fine lines. The minimiser is also 99% natural and cruelty-free. I received several Balance Me products that I loved including the Super Moisturizing Hand Cream in my August 2016 GoodieBox and the Congested Skin Serum in my June 2016 Birchbox, so I am definitely looking forward to trying this product.
200 kr / $30 for 10 ml

Revitalash Advanced Eyelash Conditioner Serum (Full Size): The serum claims that after 2 weeks of daily use, lashes will become longer, fuller, and stronger. The tube contains enough serum for 2 months of daily treatment. I am skeptical of products that claim to enhance eyelashes especially since I have already tried the Majestic Pure Eyelash Growth Serum, which did nothing to the appearance of my lashes. However, this serum is not tested on animals.
399 kr / $59 for 1 ml

Miqura Golden Modeling Mask (Full Size): The package contains 2 bags of powder and gel that are mixed together to create a mask. The mask is worn for 15-30 minutes, and it is easy to remove. The mask protects, restores, and tightens skin while reducing discoloration and moisturizing the skin. I could not find the cruelty-free status of Miqura, but I love trying new masks, so I am looking forward to using this mask.
125 kr / $19

Glov Quick Treat: All of the Glov products remove makeup and exfoliate the skin with only water. The Glov Quick Treat is finger glove that is intended to be used to fix makeup while on the go. The material used in the Glov products is safe for all skin types including those with sensitive skin or allergies. I like that the glove is reusable and only needs to be cleaned with soap, but I am a bit skeptical that it can remove makeup with just water.
149 kr / $22

The Body Shop Spiced Apple Body Butter: The body butter has an apple and cinnamon scent, which smells great. The butter absorbs quickly and leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth for 48 hours. I have never tried anything from The Body Shop, so I am looking forward to trying this body butter. Also, The Body Shop is cruelty-free.
175 kr / $26 for 200 ml
Overall, I am excited to try these products expect for the eyelash serum.
