4 Octobers Glossybox!

I think everyone received the same box this month, heres what was inside mine:

Firstly, my eyes were drawn to these as dermalogica is a well known skin care brand then I was dissappointed to read age smart on them. Now I definatly don't believe Glossybox cater to each individual according to their online profile. I'M 19!! my skin might not be in the best condition but it isn't aging that quick! 

I received a little Dermalogica toiletries bag inside was a dermalogica age smart renewal lip complex 1ml. I'm not going to lie - I loved this product! I put this on before uni this morning, walked around in the rain, drank and ate and only had to reapply once! it feels like a soft protective layer over my lips and my lips really feel smooth.

I haven't tried the other two dermalogica products which are a multivitamin power recovery masque 15ml and a multivitamin thermafoliant 15ml. I will be trying these products soon to see what effect they have on my skin, but Glossybox, seriously?! girls get rubbing them brain cells together and have a think about your subscribers and whether the young ones will want age recovery skincare!

This is the best product in the box, a full size Stila smudge stick waterproof eye liner in the colour 'moray' the colour is a lovely olive green with gold shimmer.

At first (like a lot of people) I thought my eye liner was broke as it wouldn't twist up. But girls have patience it will twist up eventually it just takes a gentle hand and a couple of minutes. I love this product it glides on smoothly, it's highly pigmented but I'm not a big fan of coloured eye liner and I'm not sure how I will wear this yet.

Now if you read my last Glossybox post from September you'd know my view on perfume samples in Glossyboxes. But I thought I'd give them a try! They came in a pretty bag and it was a set of three by Robert Piguet, I thought the packaging was really dated and expected dated scents.

Firstly, Fracas which smells like something someone 70yrs+ would wear, It's seriously dated and really floraly.

Secondly, Calypso which smells okay I suppose, not my cup of tea but it is more frsh and more citrusy floraly.

Thirdly, Visa which smells quite woody.

I'm not a fan of these at all, not the sort of scents I'd wear but I'm sure plenty of people out there love them, just not my cup of tea!



I received a full size Leighton Denny nail polish 12ml in 'Hanky Panky' I love brands which give their products risque or quirky names, such as OPI and Nars so I had a little chuckle when I received this nail polish. However, I'm not a huge fan of the colour, it is a pearlised orange and looks really washed out because it's pearlised, I was sooooooo jealous when I saw a lot of people received a really cute pale pink colour!

Overall, I know most girls have been happy with this months box and I know I seem fussy but I didn't love this months box. But I am definatly thinking of purchasing the full size dermalogica renewal lip complex but a bit iffy about the £22.50 price tag.

What did you lovely ladies get in your boxes? what was your highlight of the box?

0 September Glossybox!

This is my September Glossybox and I must admit I am pleased!
I love salt/sugar scrubs so I am really excited to try out the Dead Sea Spa Magik salt brushing, lets see if it beats Sanctuarys' hot sugar scrub.

The Moa The Green Balm works instantly at softening lips, it is very smooth in texture but feels a little bit greasy. It has an aloe vera scent to it, I will use this product however I still favour vaseline cocoa butter which is cheaper.

When I tried the Neal&Wolf Harmomy intensive care treatment my hair did feel softer, with having fine hair which has been coloured for years my hair does damage easily so only time will tell if this will become a staple in my hair routine!

I don't really agree with Glossybox including perfumes in Glossyboxes as perfume samples can be obtained for free from many stores, even ASOS.com often send free perfume samples with your order. I'm still in two minds whether I like the PLUM perfume by Mary Greenwell, it smells quite fresh but also smells like something an older person would wear.

Finally, what I was most excited to see... HD Brows eye and brow palette in Vamp. Being blonde I had to mix the nude colour and the dark brown colour, they blended well and are highly pigmented, and will definatly be using the other colours as eyeshadows. The eyebrow brush which came with the palette is really soft!
