Nailbox Review | The UK's First Nail Polish Subscription Box ♥

Hi beaut's!

Today I have something very exciting to share with you all, and let me tell ya any nail polish addicts out there are going to love it! Move over generic beauty subscription boxes, Nailbox is in town. Nailbox* is a brand new monthly subscription box service that focuses solely on all things nails, they only launched in April but I think their off to a flying start and I find this concept genius! 

Each Nailbox is dispatched on or around the 21st of each month and will contain a total of 5 items; 3-4 full-size nail polishes and 1-2 tools, all of which will be well known brands such as Essie, Orly and OPI among other favourites. The shades of the nail polishes that you will receive in each box will always be bang on trend and go with the current season, which personally I thinks as amazing idea as nobody wants to receive a dark, dreary shade during Spring/Summer do they. 

I was lucky enough to receive May's Nailbox to review a little early and I absolutely LOVE every single nail polish brand and shade that I received. Here's the low down....  

♥ Orly-Fiery Orange RRP £9.50 ♥

A sheer bright orange shade that's  packed with holographic hex glitters and micro string glitter. Perfect to use as a glittery top coat over a plain orange shade or you can use it on it's own but it needs 3 coats for complete opacity .

♥ Essie-Status Symbol RRP £7.99 ♥ 

A creamy and feisty hot pink  shade perfect for the Summer! It's completely opaque in 2 quick coats.

♥ Rimmel 60 Seconds -Lucky Lilac RRP £2.99 ♥

A dark lilac shade that still has a pastel vibe about it, perfect to wear now during the Spring and is opaque after 2 coats.

♥ Nicole by OPI-Alex by the Books RRP £7.99 ♥ 

 A creamy mint green shade that's absolutely gorgeous to wear during Spring time, It was completely opaque after the 1 coat and the formula is to die for as well .

♥ Elegant Touch Professional Cuticle Pusher & Nail Cleaner RRP £9.50 ♥

 This is an amazing little dual ended nail cleaning tool, it has a rounded, slightly sharpened edge at one end to help remove dirt from under the nails, and a cuticle pusher at the other end which has a rounded spatula shape perfect for pushing back softened cuticles and dry skin. 

The price of the box per month is between £13.50 and £15.00. You can either choose to sign up to Nailbox for a whole year and your box will be slightly cheaper at £13.50 per month, or you can pay £15.00 month-to-month which then allows you to give the box a test run with the option to cancel whenever you want.

Overall I think this is a fantastic idea and a great take on a subscription box, whether your nail polish addict or a beginner your nail's will definitely love this little monthly treat!

What do you think of Nailbox beaut's?? Will you be trying it out fr yourself?? I'd love to know!!

Fragrance Direct Haul/Bargains

Hey girlie's!!!

I'm pretty sure most of you make-up and beauty obsessed girlie's will have heard of  Fragrance Direct before but if not, in a nutshell... It's an amazing website that sells branded perfumes, aftershaves, cosmetics, hair care, skincare and beauty products all for amazing discounted prices and lets face it, who doesn't like a beauty bargain... I know I do ha ha. I've made numerous Fragrance Direct order's before buying brands such as Essie, Dainty Doll, OPI, Sally Hanson, TIGI, Macadamia, Elizabeth Arden and that's just to name a few, amazing right!!! 

Now lets get down to business and onto the bits and bobs in my haul he he...

W7 Honolulu Bronzer* £2.25 (RRP £8.50)

I've been after this cute little bronzer for a super long time, firstly as its meant to be an amazing dupe for Benefits Hoola Bronzer and secondly as it just looks gorgeous. It's also a matte bronzer meaning you could use it to contour as well as bronze, it also comes complete with a nice little brush in the box too. 

Real Techniques Limited Edition Duo-Fiber Collection* £21.50 (RRP £23.99)

I couldn't quite believe it when I saw Real Technique brushes on the Fragrance Direct website, woohoo!!! The Limited Edition Set comes complete with 3 duo-fiber brushes, a face brush for lightweight application of face powder and blending pigments, a contour brush for controlled contouring and sculpting, and an eye brush to add finishing touches to the eyes. I'm so excited to try these out being the huge Real Techniques fan that I am, so look out for a full review on these bad boys soon.

ORLY Nail Lacquer in Cherry Bomb* £3.99 (RRP £10.95)

I've only ever tried 1 ORLY Nail Lacquer before and loved it, and it's amazing quality, so I'm so happy to have another in my collection. I picked out 'Cherry Bomb' a gorgeous bright orange/red shade that I think will look amazing in the summer (thumbs up for forward thinking), I also love fact that ORLY polishes are free from DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde and feature the award-winning Gripper Cap for ease of use and expert application. You also get a whooping 18ml's in each bottle too.

Revlon Velvet Touch Vent Brush* £1.99 (RRP £5.99)

Hairbrushes seem to be so expensive these days so thank goodness for Fragrance Direct. Ive been after a Vent Brush for a while as I find they brush out waves and curls really well for that softer look and as Ive been wearing my hair curly/wavy recently this is just the brush I need. It also vents for faster drying and styling, gently detangles wet hair and adds volume, it has ball tipped bristles that wont snag or pull hair and comes complete with a soft touch rubber handle for comfortable hold.

Lady Gaga Fame 30ml Gift Set* £9.95 (RRP £25.00)

Lady Gaga Fame eau de parfum is a sweet yet floral perfume, and is thought to be the first fragrance in the world to use a black liquid that turns transparent on contact with the skin. I absolutely love this fragrance, this is actually my third bottle too ha ha, I cant believe what a bargain it is on the Fragrance Direct website at just £9.95 for a gift set is pretty impressive if you ask me.

So that's all the goodies in my haul girlie's!!! Don't forget to head on over to Fragrance Direct    and grab yourself some beauty bargains and save those pennies ha ha.

Do let me know what your all time favourite Fragrance Direct purchases are and if you've made an order recently and took advantage of their January Sale. I'd love to know!!!
