Closet Confections

I run a sweet little personal style blog called Closet Confections, but here's where I post random musings on a broader range of topics that interest me... so don't be surprised if you see lots of photos of food!

As much as possible, I try to post original content. And if anything didn't come from yours truly or this guy, you can be sure I'll give credit where credit is due. Enjoy!

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is worth a thousand pictures.  So in that spirit, I’d like to present a video review of Jewelmint.com. Unfortunately, the Lioness Bracelet featured in this video is currently sold out, but if you sign up for updates, Jewelmint will alert you when it’s back in stock.

If you enjoy these videos, please take the time to subscribe to my YouTube channel.

Thanks, and Happy Friday peeps!

GLOSSYBOX Makeup & Skincare Video Review

I was pretty ecstatic when the folks over at GLOSSYBOX asked me to preview a sample box for their US launch. You can check out my latest video to get the full review, but I can tell you now that I absolutely love it. I currently subscribe to Birchbox, but I find GLOSSYBOX to be much better. The sample sizes are larger, and the quality and selection is much better, in my opinion.  Although I will give Birchbox bonus points for only costing $10/month compared to $20/month for Glossybox.

Here’s a breakdown of the samples that were included in my box:

  • BASQ Cucumber Tea Eye Gel
  • OPI Kiss Me on My Tulips Nail Polish
  • C.O. Bigelow Lavender & Peppermint Body Lotion
  • Cargo EyeBronzer
  • Erno Laszlo Hollywood Collection Skin Cream
  • Kryolan High Floss Brilliant Lip Shine (Toffee)

I was particularly excited about the first 3 items as they were all things that I’d use regularly and came in full sizes.  The other downside is that there’s currently a waiting list for the US boxes, but I will definitely keep you guys up-to-date on when it’s finally available, or you can check out http://glossybox.com to sign up for email alerts.
