November GoGoGirlfriend

At the moment, GoGo Girlfriend has a waiting list- I think they were shocked at how many people signed up so quickly. So as to best serve their current members, they are not taking any new members until the beginning of January, I believe. I'm impressed by their integrity to serve their current customers instead of letting customer service slip in the name of making more moolah.......

So what is GoGo Girfriend? It's a monthly sampler ($12.99) full of health and beauty products, many of them from smaller companies that you might have otherwise missed out on. There's a lot of organic and natural  products, which is nice. They also do giveaways, sometimes a few a week- of full sized products and often will mail members extras "just because". I had a review published on their site and they sent me a full size bottle of the item I reviewed! They've also sent me great freebies like a full size (HUGE) bottle of B12 drops and organic face wipes. Members earn reward points for rating products which can be used towards a free box or products in the store (where members also get a discount off of retail.) I recently used some of my points to get an enormous jar of French Green clay powder for a friend's birthday.

So here's what was in my December box, along with reviews of each product. (most items available in the GoGo Girlfriend store)



Full sized Blossoms Eye Shadow in Dreamy Girl (member price $5.95, non member $9.95)
I'm really wanting to try the Hibiscus- it's such an interesting color!

Camille Beckman French Vanilla 5 Piece Gift Set (includes Glycerine hand Therapy, Coronet Cream, Silky Body Cream, Hand & Shower Cleansing Gel, and Bubble Bath.) $9.99 - you can get the set at 
Camille Beckman
And can I just say OHMYGOAWD!!! This stuff is amazing. Their Hand Therapy has a massive cult following, because it's possibly the BEST HAND LOTION EVER MADE! GGGF members can get Beckman items discounted in the GGGF store.

Oluv Fresh Olive Leaf Body Scrub retails for $6.00 and came with a little wooden scoop so you don't have to get your grubby fingers in the jar- cool!

I'm super excited about these Crystal Essence Pomegranate Mineral Deoderant Towelettes. I love deoderant crystals, but they are incredibly inconvenient at times, especially if you're my husband, who has managed to shatter 2 of them in the last 2 months. Nothing like trying to soldier through and rubbing shattered salt crystals on your pits..... These are brilliant! Also available in chamomile and green tea.

We got a scent sample of the FABULOUS Dolce & Gabbana light blue
Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue 0.8 oz Eau de Toilette Spray
A stunning perfume, overwhelming and irresistible like the joy of living. Surprising and colored: the liveliness of Sicilian citron, the happiness of Granny Smith apple, the spontaneity of bluebells. Feminine and resolute: the intensity of jasmine, the freshness of bamboo, the charm of white rose. Deep and true: the character of cedarwood, the fullness of amber, the embrace of musk.Notes:Sicilian Citron, Bluebell, Granny Smith Apple, Jasmine Sambac, Bamboo, White Rose, Cedarwood, Amber, Musk....

And last but not least, an Eye Crease Brush from e.l.f. which is super soft and perfectly tapered to get your eye crease. 
e.l.f. Essential Eye Crease Brush
e.l.f. Essential Eye Crease Brush
Blends and contours in the crease and corners of the eye. This domed bristle brush picks up a lot of eye color and sweeps it onto the eyelid to create bold definition. Great for smudging shadow into the lash line for a smoky effect.
