February Glossybox Review | Valentines Edition

Hey girlie's!!!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! It's fair to say last months box was pretty pants, I'm sure I'm not alone on that one, but this month Glossybox have won me over again!!! I love the Valentines theme this month and I have to say the limited edition box is gorgeous and the contents inside isn't half bad either, its nice to finally see some full size products in there.

So lets see the little treasures I received inside my February Glossybox...

Maybelline New York Master Kajal Liner in Pitch Black £5.99
 I cant wait to try this, I always eye this up in Superdrug or Boots but never splurge and buy it as I've heard mixed reviews, but finally I can give it a whirl. I always use kohl liners anyway so I'm interested to see how different a cream stick liner is in comparison to my other kohl liners.  

Ciate London Paint Pot in Red Hot Chili £9.00
I love Ciate nail polishes and their amazing quality so I'm super happy to be able to add another one to my nail polish collection. I received the shade 'Red Hot Chili' which I'd describe as a fiery red-orange shade, I can see it being great for summer time wear and looking pretty eye catching on the nails. 

Miners Cosmetics Cocktail Kiss in Manhattan £2.99
I've never road tested anything from Miners Cosmetics before so I was eager to test this little lip gloss out however, after opening the gloss up and swatching it on the back of my hand I can tell I wont like it at all, its just so super sticky, it honestly felt like thick, gloopy glue and it had lots of glittery particles within the gloss too which I'm not a fan of either.

Nougat London Sparkling Body Shimmer in Cherry Blossom £14.00
Not only does this look super pretty in the packaging but it looks gorgeous on the skin too. I must admit when I opened up my Glossybox to see a big pot of body shimmer I immediately thought 'disco ball' but too my surprise it just adds a nice amount of radiance that isn't overly glittery or shimmery at all, it smells incredible too. This is definitely something I'd wear on a night out or on holiday with a nice tan.

Toni & Guy Hair Meet Wardrobe Stick It Up Gum £7.20
As happy as I am about receiving this little Tony & Guy gem I'm slightly confused as to how I'll use it , the name 'Stick It Up Gum' to me suggests that this product is more for shorter hair styles, it does say its great for creating texture so I'll give it a whirl and see what I think but I don't think this will do much for my long mane ha ha.

Lindt Lindor Treat Bar
Lastly, we have a little extra in the form of some scrumptious chocolate, yum!!! You really cant complain with that can you?

Overall I'm super impressed with the contents of this months box and its theme. I love the fact we got 4 full size products as well as a decent size sample of the Nougat London Body Shimmer and then the little chocolate extra as well, Glossybox really have spoilt us this month and hopefully it will continue he he.

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

Glossybox September 2013 | The London Edition




Hey girlie's!!!

So its that time again... Glossybox time!!! This month's box has a very iconic  'London' theme. The box is so snazzy with its Union Jack design and I'm glad to see they've finally given the A3 fold out paper information booklet the boot and replaced it with a smaller information card instead, they've also thrown in a glossy GB Mag for good measure too.

If I'm honest i really wasn't happy with the contense of last month's box, also to add to my disappointment my eye lash curlers arrived broken too which wasn't great. But this month Glossybox have made a winner in my eyes, i love it (big smiles). Anyway onto what's inside my box this month....

Eylure Pre-glued Lashes


I'm extremely happy too see these lashes in my box, i always struggle with applying false lashes and to be honest waiting for the glue to go tacky is just annoying and i never know when the right time to apply them is, so the fact these are pre glued and ready to go is great for me. The lashes are nice and natural looking too which is a bonus, i dont like it when they look really obvious that they are fake. This is a full set and retails for £5.06.

Toni & Guy HairMeetWardrobe Classic Shine & Gloss Serum 30ml


I'm looking forward to trying this serum out, i always like receiving hair products to try. This classic shine gloss serum controls frizz and gives a lightweight shine to your locks, all you have to do is add 1 or 2 pumps of the serum to the palms of your hands and work through the lengths of your blow dried hair. It also comes in the Limited Edition Lulu packaging, how fancy. This is the full size product and retails for £7.19.

Dr Lipp Original Nipple Balm For Lips 3ml


Another product I'm happy too see in my box, although i cant help but crease up at the fact its called a nipple balm he he. I tried this pretty much as soon as i saw it, it's a very thick, 100% natural , multi purpose balm, It helps heal chapped lips, burns, eczema, extreme dry skin patches and the list seems to go on and on. I'm going to purchase the full size of this as its just so versatile and i know ill use it alot. The full size of this retails for £11.50 for 15ml.

Be A Bombshell Cosmetics Onyx Eye Liner 3ml




This eyeliner looks right up my street, its a felt tip liner making it super easy to apply and create flicks/wings and the pigmentation is amazing!!! Be A Bombshell Cosmetics also claim that their Onyx liner will last you throughout your entire day no matter how hectic is it, so I'm really expecting good things from this little beauty. This is the full size and retails for around £8.92.

Elizabeth Arden Untold 5ml



Usually i cant stand perfume samples in beauty boxes however... This is alot larger than the usual sample size we get so that makes it a little better for me, also the little bottle its just so cute and great to pop in your handbag to use on the go. The scent itself i actually really like, its quite sweet but theres definitely a hint of floral in there, its a really sophisticated scent too. The full size of 50ml is £48 or you can get 100ml for £69. 

Overall i am super happy with what i got in this month's box, i know I'm gonna use every single thing in this box for sure.

What do you think of this month's box???
