Breakfast with Bloglovin’, Glossybox and Friends

Congrats to the winner: brooklynny143

On Friday, I attended a (belated) Mother’s Day breakfast for bloggers that was sponsored by Glossybox and bloglovin’ at Cafeteria.  It was great to enjoy quiche and tea with friends Nicole and Jill as well as to meet Sharon, Megan, Kimand Alison along with the brands’ reps.

Bloglovin’ is a type of reader that allows you to follow your favorite blogs (cough: Foodie City) and lets you know when they update their sites. The most popular sites in their community tend to be fashion, beauty, home and food related, so this is also a great place to find new sites in those categories. The founders are from Sweden and you can see that clean, minimalist aesthetic in the layout of the site…which I happen to prefer. You can check out Bloglovin and follow Foodie City Mom while you’re over there 🙂 …

The other sponsor of the breakfast was Glossybox. I have written about Glossybox in the past, because I think that it makes a great subscription gift. (The recipient will think of you every time that they receive their monthly box!) In any event at the breakfast, Glossybox gifted us with a special edition Mother’s Day Glossy Box. In addition to having a “Happy Mother’s Day” card inside, it also included the following items:

-essie’s geranium nail polish

-Estee Lauder’s Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara

-Modelco Cheek + Lip tint

-Biolage Exquisite Oil Replenishing Treatment

-Colorproof Evolved Color Care CrazySmooth Anti-Frizz Shampoo & Conditioner (gluten-free!)

-By Terry Crème de Rose (anti-aging skin cream)

We also received a couple of bonus items (Jo Mousselli’s Xtreme Lashes xpresso GlideLiner eye pencil and liner sharpener). I am keeping the liner sharpener, mascara and tint and I am giving away the other 6 items. If you are interested in winning them, simply leave a comment on the YouTube video about the Glossybox contents (see below) by the end of the month (May 31^st). Good luck!
