January 2013 Prive Box from Topbox



 So I received my January topbox in the mail today and I have to say I honestly wasn't REALLY excited about any of the products, mostly because I have most of what I got already in my bathroom. I have not tried the dark spot corrector before but I don't really have any dark spots to correct in the first place so this isn't very appealing to me either. This was one of the prive boxes they featured on the site that you could put on your wishlist, although I didn't add it to mine because of the fact I already use these products and it would ruin the surprise I hope to get each month, but it seems like it was sent to everyone this month regardless. 
anyways, here are some pictures of what I got.


 It came in this white box, with the clinique logo on it. Its very crisp and clean looking.


I apologize for my bad lighting and even worse camera. This is the overview of the entire box, it contained a card describing everything that came in the box:
Clarifying Lotion
Formulated to help lift the worlds impurities to create healthier, younger skin. 
Full Size: 16$ (200ml) 27$ (400ml)
Rinse off Eye Makeup Solvent  
Make it a clean sweep, from lashes to brows. Or use for on-the-spot makeup fixes. Oil-free.
Full Size: 25$ (125ml)
Color Surge Eye Shadow Duo
Go-together shades of silky, easy-to-blend color in a chrome slide compact.
Full Size: 25$ (2.5g)
Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector
Comparable to a leading drug ingredient in visibly reducing dark spots by 58% in 12 weeks.
Full Size: 63$ (30ml), 93$ (50ml)


Clarifying Lotion 30ml sample size: I'm not quite sure how this is supposed to be lotion in all honesty. It is water thin, 
and looks more like the purple clinique toner I already have..which works very well but I just cant see me using this product because of its perplexing consistency.

Rinse off makeup solvent 60ml sample size: I already have this product, as I said above I already have most of the things I was given to sample in this months box. It works well at taking the makeup off but even though it says it is oil-free I find it leaves a very oily residue on my skin after, it may be some type of moisturizer though.


Color surge eye shadow duo 1.6g sample size: I haven't tried these yet but I love the chrome case it comes in and the shine in both colors (I'm not a matte colored makeup person) cant see myself using the brush though but maybe ill give it a whirl just to say I did.

Even better clinical dark spot corrector 7ml sample size: Like I mentioned earlier I haven't used this product, I don't have dark spots so I don't have much use for it...maybe ill see if it works on under eye bags LOL

That's about it for this month, 
I hope I get the benefit box I wish listed for next month!
that would absolutely make my month haha
