August Glossybox Review ♥

Hi beaut's!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! This month Glossybox have gone global on us and have filled our boxes with beauty discoveries from around the world. My box this month actually contains five full size products which I'm super happy about, as much as I loved last months french themed box it was a little lacklustre for me with the majority of the box being little samples, so the fact this months box contains all full sized products pleases me a lot. Anywhoo lets see what I received inside my August Glossybox...
MeMeMe Lipglide in Playful Peach | Full Size | £6.95
Firstly this month we have the MeMeMe Lipglide in Playful Peach, which is a creamy matte pencil that I think would double up well as a blush too. I would say it's more on the coral side rather than peach but I still think it would suit most and is perfect to wear during this final part of the Summer.

Manna Kadar Lash Primer | Full Size | £14.55
I cant tell you how much I love eye lash primers so I was super happy to see Manna Kadar's offering in my box! Manna Kadar's lash primer is designed to be used under your mascara to nourish and condition the lashes and to create lots more volume than your normal mascara would achieve when used on its own. If you haven't tried an eye lash primer before girls knows your chance to see just how much I love them he he.

Emite Artist Colour Powder Blush | Full Size | £20.59
The Emite Powder Blush was actually voted for by us glossies back in May when Glossybox gave us a choice between a blush or brush and as you see the blush won. I must admit for me personally I'll be using this blush as a bronzer because the shade '108' is far too warm and dark for me to use as a blush, although it’ll probably be a more flattering blush shade on darker skin tones. From what I can tell so far the formula seems really lovely and it has such a soft, buttery texture so I'm looking forward to bronzing myself with this little beauty.

Naobay Calming Face Toner | Full Size | £10.65
We had a Naobay facial scrub in one of our Glossy boxes a while back and I used the entire tube up because I loved it so much so I was happy to see something else from the brand to try. This time around we have the Calming Face Toner, this citrus scented liquid toner claims to remove traces of makeup while also cleansing, it also calms and hydrates the skin thanks to the chamomile and gotu kola extracts and is 99.13% natural which is pretty amazing right! I cant wait to give this a go later.

SASS Purifying Cleanser | Full Size | £7.00
Finally we have the SASS Intimate Purifying Cleanser, this little beauty isn't for your face so please don't think it's the kind of cleanser that will remove you makeup because it wont, its actually an intimate cleanser which basically means its a body wash but for your fairy/foof/intimate parts he he. It works as a probiotic to balance the skins PH levels and soothes the skin, it's safe to say it's a good little product for your fairy!

 What did you think of this month's box beaut's?? I'd love to know.

April Glossybox Review ♥

Hey beaut's!!!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! I loved my Glossybox last month, I thought the variety of the products was great and it was nice to see a mixture of high end and high street products too so I was looking forward to seeing if Glossybox had kept up the good work with this months box. This months box is called 'Sweet Treats' and is all about helping us make that beauty transition into Summer! Glossybox say that the beauty heroes inside this months box will become our handbag essentials for the warmer months ahead, ohhh!

So lets see what 'sweet treats' I received inside my April Glossybox...

Emite Make Up Lip Brush-L312 £17.00

So lets start this months run down with the Emite Lip Brush, I don't think I've ever received a makeup brush in a Glossybox before so this is a first for me however... we did see the Emite Eyelash Curlers last year and if you remember rightly mine turned up broken in my box and they never got replaced (sad face), that aside, I do really like this little lip brush. I must admit I rarely use a lip brush but that's because my lip brush I already own is rubbish. Emite's Lip Brush actually looks and feels lovely, I love the fact that it's an angled Lip Brush as it will be great for creating the perfect cupids bow shape to your top lip with those tricky to apply dark lipsticks.

MeMeMe Cosmetics Beat the Blues-Pearl Pink £5.50
Ohh the Benefit High Beam dupe... I have to say MeMeMe have got it spot on with this, it really is pretty, and I honestly cant tell the difference between MeMeMe's offering and the higher end option from Benefit. I have put this in my makeup bag already and will be using it everyday from now on to highlight with, it's so perfect for spring/summer and you can even mix it with your foundation for that ultimate luminous, dewy glow. Also Glossybox have added a nice little touch by giving us a 20% off MeMeMe code on our product description card, woohoo!

TRESemmé Instant Refresh Cleansing Dry Shampoo 100ml
I was so happy to see this in my box as I've heard lots of good things about TRESemmé's dry shampoo so I'm looking forward to giving it a whirl. The dry shampoo itself claims to absorb excess oil, instantly revives your hair whilst also adding a touch of volume...ohh I love abit of volume he he. I've given the dry shampoo a spritz already just to see what it smells like and it's lovely, just like freshly washed hair. This isn't the full size though, it's what I'd call handbag size he he, so its great for on the go too.

He-Shi Professional Tanning Face & Body Gel £7.95
With summer on it's way soon (we hope) I do think this He-Shi Tanning Gel is a nice little addition to my box, even more so if your boyfriend/partner likes to be bronzed as well as this self tanner is for him and her. I must admit I am a little bit afraid of self tanners and always stick to my trusty Cocoa Brown Tan as I know where I stand with that, but I have heard good things about He-Shi so I'm definitely going to give this bad boy a go. Also just like the added bonus of the discount on MeMeMe, Glossybox have added a 25% off discount code on any He-Shi purchases on our product description card, ohhh I love a good ole discount!

MONU Spa Warming Ginger Massage & Body Oil 30ml 
Uhh the only thing I don't like about this months box is this body oil from MONU. Don't get me wrong, I love MONU as a brand and every skincare product I've ever used from them I love but body oil's really aren't my thing, however... I do like the fact that you can add a couple of drops of this oil into your bath to relax your body whilst moisturising your skin at the same time, so I think I'll be using my little sample up that way instead.
Overall I'm really happy with this months box, just like last month theres a variety of high end and high street which I like and we have some full size products in there as well which is always a bonus, even the samples are good sizes apart from the body oil which I'm not hugely fussed about, as like I said before, I'm not a huge fan. I'm excited for next months box already, even ,ore so now that I've read in the Glossy Magazine that the May box features a very exciting collaboration, ooohhh???

What did you think of this month's box beaut's?? I'd love to know.
