Glam Bag: February 2012 bag review

Today I wanted share my Feb My Glam Bag~

 After subscribing in end of Jan for the Feb bag I finally got it today!

I had a slight disappointment with their service...

 In the initial email from My Glam after subscribing it did say that they were sending out the packages to arrive by Valentines day by sending out the packages to people that are lives out farthest first so that everyone will receive the package in around the same time, with this info I thought that I would get my bag by the 14th but it never came so I checked in to my account at My Glam to see if I can find any information regarding to my order but nothing, I also didn't receive a tracking number so I wanted to see if I can find it in my account but no info regarding to an shipment, I tried to find a CS contact but again NOTHING I couldn't find a way to contact them on their website so I backtracked to my order confirmation email then I found a link to email the CS in that email. I ended up email them on the 17th through my confirmation email next day I got a email with a tracking number from the CS.

All in all the information they provided to getting the packages in the mid month turned into end of the month so that was a disappointment, not knowing when my order was going to be sent out. Also buy the 16th they already released what was going to be in the bag on their website so there was no surprise to the bags itself.

What was in the bag?

Dead Sea Premier Other Products

WHY WE LOVE IT

Concentrated Facial Serum with Vitamin E & C:
• The Vitamin E & C Serum protects your skin from aging. It revitalizes, nourishes, firms, tones, improves texture, adds elasticity, balances your skin (5.5 PH), and reduces discoloration and age spots. This serum has a high concentration of Vitamins A, E and C. It's like a vitamin shot for your face. Vitamin E encourages the skin to produce more collagen, a natural wrinkle filler. When we get older (from Age 23), our body loses collagen and the skin becomes loose and wrinkly. This serum contains vitamin E to help your body produce collagen. Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant preventing aging in the future. Finally, Vitamin A helps our cells become stronger and healthier. It is also considered to be one of the most important vitamins for our skin.

Moisture Complex:
• This product won an award for best product in 2005 by Health and Beauty America (HBA). It is not your regular moisturizer because it has many different purposes. First, tt absorbs easily, gives you moisture for 24 hours and nourishes your skin with 21 minerals from the Dead Sea. It contains liposome complex and Dunaliella seaweed (which only live in the Dead Sea) which have amazing anti-aging effects. This is a great cream to start your day it contains natural SPF and protects your skin from makeup and free radicals. Second, it is a wrinkle filter. The mineral bar is a high concentration of minerals from the Dead Sea.  It opens the pores, helps your skin to absorb oxygen from the water and allows the cream to soak in and fill wrinkles and fine lines.

Eye Serum:
• The delicate eye area needs special attention , since the skin is thinner in this area and tends to wrinkle first. Our velvety feeling eye serum absorbs quickly, reducing the appearance of fine lines, dark circle and puffiness. Eye serum contains liposome complex, sodium Borate, rose water which moisturizes, firms and tones the skin.

Eye Cream:
• Premier's Eye Cream protects your delicate under eye skin keeping it moisturized all day long.This cream targets fine lines and wrinkles and prevents future wrinkles.It also contains natural SPF 17 UVA and UVB sun filter protection.

$100 Gift Certificate from Nu.Me

What I think?

well I love sample service mostly like surprises and getting to try products before actually purchasing them so when I heard about My Glam bag and looking at their previous bags I decided to get it, as soon as I saw what was in their Feb bag on their website honestly I was disappointed mostly due to having some product brands I never heard of and then I thought well thats cool they included a gift certificate but once I got the bag and saw that the gift certificate to nu.me was only good for hair styling product, hair extensions and it excluded hair products. I never heard of Nu.Me hair straightener or their hair drier so I am quite hesitant in purchasing them since I already own both straightener and drier so I don't see a need to get anything from them. The only product I will use is the NYX roll on shimmer lol I really don't know if I want to continue my subscription still debating, I want to see if the service and the product improves or not what do you think...?
