February Glossybox Review | The Love Box ♥


Hey beaut's!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! This month Glossybox have been feeling the loveeeee, and to coinside with Valentines Day they have bought us the 'Love Box'. The Love Box theme is great, the box itself is simple yet very pretty and the contents aint half bad either, I love the fact that all of my five items are full size, dont you just love it when that happens he he.

 Anywhoo lets see what I received inside my February Glossybox...

B. Cosmetics Defined Brow Kit in Dark | Full Size | £9.99
Im so happy I got this little brow kit by B.Cosmetics from Superdrug! Not only do you get two brow powders but you get a highlighter to enhance your brows arch, brow wax to makes those brows look beefier haha, and the cutest double ended angled brush and spoolie ive ever seen. I can't wait to give this a go and see how it compares with my beloved HD Brows Kit.

So Susan Rose Quartet Lip & Cheek Palette | Full Size | £8.00

So Susan is a brand we see alot of in Glossybox and being a fan of the brand it makes me very happy! This month I have their Rose Quartet Lip & Cheek Palette to try and my goodness this is adorable. You get 4 shades in the palette, theres 2 shades of Pink, a Red and a deep coral shade, all of these shades can be used either on your lips as lipsticks or on your cheeks as a cream blusher. I love this little paltte and cant wait to play around with it some more.  

Wilkinson Sword Hydro Silk | Full Size | £9.99
This Wilkinson Sword Hydro Silk razor couldnt have come at a better time as I was going to buy a new razor tomorrow and now I wont have too hehe. It sounds like a pretty impressive razor to be honest, it has a water activated bar of moisterising serum which is infused with shea butter and marine exracts and claims to hydrate the skin for upto two hours after shaving.

MARSK Mineral Eyeshadow in Fifty Shades | Full Size | £14.49

With a colour palette inspired by the film Fifty Shades Of Grey, this mineral based eyeshadow by MARSK is 100% natural and super pigmented. The shade I received was Fifty Shades which is a sexy dark grey, perfect for creating those smouldering smokey eyes, you can also use the eyeshadow wet for a very intense look.

Royal Apothic Tinties in Coral | Full Size | $14.00
And lastly we have this cute lip butter by Royal Apothic. This quirky American brand was inspired by an old apothecary manual and its now said to be a celebrity favourite with Victoria Beckham being a rumoured fan, ohhhhh!! As far as lip butters go this is a good'un, and the pigmentation is insane for something that is only meant to give you a slight tint and the coral shade is super pretty and will work well through the spring/summer.

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

October Glossybox Review | Pop Art Collector's Edition

Hey beaut's!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! This months 'Pop Art' themed box is certainly an eye catching one, I mean just look at it he he, I love it! I also noticed again this month that  Glossybox have not only decided to just ditch the monthly glossy magazine but they've now ditched the product card too, I actually received mine as an email instead of in my actual box which seems abit bizarre, but I guess it means less waste and all that jazz he he.

   Anywhoo lets see what I received inside my 'Pop Art' Glossybox...

Nuxe Creme Fraiche® De Beaute Mask | Full Size | £19.50
Nuxe is a brand we seem to see alot of in Glossybox but usually its in the form of those dreaded oils that I never get on with, so the fact that this month we have a full size face mask to play with makes me very happy he he. The mask is described as a 24hr moisturising mask which hydrates and soothes the skin, instantly reducing discomfort and redness, and leaves the skin looking radiant and relaxed, arrhh I cant wait to give this a go.

Etre Belle Cosmetics Lip Lift Peel | Full Size | £12.95 
When I saw that this little product was called a lip lift peel I was a little scared ha ha, but in actual fact its a lip exfoliator, which always comes in handy especially at this time of the year when my lips need a little extra TLC. All you have to do to use the Lip Lift Peel is massage a small amount on the lip area in gentle circular motions. After one minute, thoroughly remove with a dampened cotton pad. The gentle formula is said to remove dead cells and refines the skin’s surface for perfectly soft lips, lovely! 

So Susan Cosmetics Flutter Mascara | Full Size | £14.95
I'm really excited to try this So Susan Flutter Mascara, I mean fluttery eye lashes sounds lush doesn't it. The intense carbon-black mascara is said to be formulated with hyaluronic spheres which help you achieve the darkest, curviest lashes possible. 

Ciate Nail Polish in Talent Scout | Full Size | £9.00
I love Ciate nail polishes, the formula and quality is just so good not to mention how pretty the bottles look on my dressing table he he. The shade I got is perfect for this time of year and I can see myself using it alot over the next couple of months.

Yves Rocher Quelques Notes d'Amour Perfume | Sample | £33 for 30ml
Uhhh perfume samples always annoy me in beauty boxes but at least this Yves Rocher offering is in a mini 5ml bottle instead of those 1.5ml tubes we usually get. It smells nice so I'll definitely use it up but it really does annoy me when we get perfume samples.

Rimmel London BB Cream Matte in Light | Sample | £6.99 for 30ml
This multitasking 9-in-1 skin perfecting makeup cream by Rimmel has a natural formula which contains kaolin, witch hazel and salicylic acid for a flawless matte look. I don't really know if I'll get much use out of this because I have dry skin, so anything mattifying is a no go for me, It looks like a great little BB cream though.

Overall I absolutely love this months box, I love the fact we got so many full size products and the 2 little sample aren't that bad either, if I had an oily or normal skin type I would of loved the BB Cream too, all in all another great box from Glossybox, woohoo!

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

June Glossybox Review ♥

Hey beaut's!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! Last months Superdrug 50th Birthday theme seemed to go down a storm and personally I loved my boxes contense ALOT, but then comes the pressure of the next box living up to the previous boxes excitement, thankfully I love my box this month, woohoo! This month Glossybox have gone with a Summer theme now that our British Summer is now in full swing (shes says as the rain is hitting the window whilst I type this) and have filled our boxes with treats that will help us channel summer beauty in one easy step, oooohhh!


So lets see what I received inside my 'Summer is Here' Glossybox...

So Susan Universal Blush | Full Size | £18.00
 The first of the full size products in my box this month is this gorgeous blush by So Susan. So Susan isn't a brand I'm hugely familiar with but I have seen it popping up here and there recently so I'm exciting to give it a whirl. The blush is actually a universal shade so is made to suit all skin tones which I think is pretty cool, it also offers UV protection, is cruelty-free, contains no phthalates and is fragrance free which I think is great, I also love the packaging, it's so cute and girly.

Teeez Trend Cosmetics Beautiful Flat Stiff Brush | Full Size | Average £15.00
I was very excited to see this makeup brush in my box, I may be new to this brush brand but my goodness just look at it, it's handle is so quirky and eye catching, it has a rose gold ferrel and natural hair bristles, whats not to love! The brush can be used with either cream or powder products and I personally think it will be best used to pack on colour to the lid and to blend product under the eye.

Nail Girls 3-in-1 Base/Topcoat & Nail Strengthener | Full Size | £13.50
I actually received my very first Nail Girls Nail Polish in last months Love Me Beauty Box and was blown away with the formula so I'm super happy to own another one, even more so because I've just run out of my Barry M Base/Topcoat so this really was luck for me.

Rituals Qi Gong Spray | Full Size | £3.50 for 50ml
 I love Rituals products, everything I've ever tried from them I've loved and this travel size antiperspirant will be great for on the go in the hot, summer months, it offers 24 hours protection against perspiration and smells amazing.

QV Skincare Skin Lotion | Sample | £6.06 for 250ml
Too look at the QV Skincare Skin Lotion it doesn't really look that inviting and to me it looks more like something you'd buy in the chemist to clear up a rash but... it's actually a very good multi-purpose lotion and is a great all-rounder. It's such a soothing moisturiser and works amazingly at treated and relieving dermatitis, eczema and other dry skin conditions, you can even use it as a cleanser to remove your makeup and can be used from your head to your toes. 

Overall I'm really happy with this months box, the contents is great and I'll certainly get use out of every single thing that I received, I also love the fact that this month I only got one sample and my box contents averages at about £50.00 which I think is AMAZING!!

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