June Glossybox

Today I thought I would share with you what I got in my June Glossybox. I decided to renew my subscription despite not getting the best box in May as I really like getting a box each month and seeing what's going to be inside it. I was really impressed with this box and I am glad that I renewed my subscription.

The first thing I got I was really happy to see. The first item is the Nailgirls 3 in 1 Base, Topcoat and Nail Strengthener. I need a new base coat as the one I am currently using is from the Boots own line and it is rubbish. This is a new launch from Nailgirls which is a brand I have never heard of. This is £13.50 for 15ml which is a little on the pricey side for me but I am looking forward to giving it a go.

Product: Nailgirls 3 in 1 Base, Topcoat and Nail Strengthener

Price: £13.50 for 15ml (I got 10ml) 

Where to buy: nailgirls.co.uk 

The next item I was happy to see was the L'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes in Black. I love mascaras so I love trying out new ones. I have heard great things about the L'Oreal mascaras but have never actually tried them myself so I am looking forward to giving this a go. 

Product: L'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes in Black

Price: £10.99 (full size recieved)

Where to buy: Boots

I received a brush from the brand Teeez Trend Cosmetics. I love the pattern on the handle and I am looking forward to trying this. The brush I got is the Beautiful Flat Stiff Brush which will be perfect for packing on colour to the lid. The brush is quite expensive at €19 (about £15-16) and it doesn't actually feel that soft so it will be interesting to see how it applies eyeshadow. 

Product: Teeez Trend Cosmetics Beautiful Flat Stiff Brush

Price: €19 (full size received) 

Where to buy: nelly.com (you can even get Boots points via Boots Treat Street)

The next product is from a brand called So Susan which is a new brand that has just launched. Every Glossybox subscriber got either the concealer quad or a blush. I was hoping for the blush but instead I got the concealer quad. This quad is quite expensive at £20 but the packaging does not feel like it is a £20 product it feels very cheap. Also although the concealer does not contain mineral oils or animal by products it still contains parabens which I find odd as usually brands that try to be 'good' usually create paraben free products. 

Product: So Susan Cosmetics Concealer Quad

Price: £20 (full size received) 

Where to buy: sosusan.com

The last product is antiperspirant spray from Rituals. It is in the scent Qi Gong and has a mixture of white lotus and yi yi ren. This smells really nice and I am looking forward to trying it. This contains 50ml so is quite a small can so I think I may put it in my travel bag to use when I'm travelling. 

Product: Rituals Qi Gong Spray

Price: £3.50 (full size recieved)

Where to buy: rituals.com

Overall I am really happy with this months box and I can't wait to try everything.

May Glossybox

Today I thought I would share with you what I got in my May Glossybox. This month Glossybox teamed up with Superdrug to celebrate their 50th anniversary. When the box arrived I was really looking forward to see what was inside. My overall impression of the box is that is ok, there are some things in this box which I'm really excited by and other bits which I'm not too bothered about. This month there seems to be a huge variation in what people got in their boxes. I have seen some products in other people's boxes which I would have much preferred to receive but the whole point of the service is that the products are a surprise and  you don't know what your getting. This month everyone got 5 full size products I believe and 2 samples which were the same for everyone. 

The first product I was really excited to see because it has been on my wishlist for a very long time. I love BB creams and tinted moisturisers and this one is talked about a lot. I'd just never gotten around to buying it as I always forgot about it when I was shopping. I'm really glad I got this so I can try it out. It has come at the perfect time as well as we are getting into the warmer months when I want a lighter base.

Garnier BB Cream Original £9.99 (full size 50ml) 

The next thing that I was happy to see in my box was the Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara. I love trying new mascaras and I've never tried any of the Rimmel Scandaleyes mascaras before. The wand looks very interesting so I can't wait to give it a go. You also get a £2 off voucher for the Wake Me Up foundation which is my favourite. 

Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara £6.99 

I was quite pleased to see this as well as I have been meaning to purchase one for ages. I don't really style my hair but I have seen a few videos showing how to do a bun with a doughnut ring and it looks relatively easy so I wanted to give it a go but I hadn't got around to buying a doughnut ring but now I have one I can try experimenting with it. 

Superdrug Large Doghnut Ring £3.999

I really like getting perfume samples as it is a good way to try out new scents without buying the whole bottle. I really like this one and I'm definitely planning on getting the full size bottle. 

Ghost Eclipse £33 (for 50ml)

Garnier have been realising quite a few products that I am interested in trying and this is one of them. I love trying new body lotions and this one has argan, macademia, almond and rose oil so it should be really hydrating. 

Garnier Oil Beauty £4.99 (for 250ml) 

Now are the 2 products that I wasn't that interested in. The first one is the Strawberries and Milkshake Lipgloss and although this smells really nice I just don't think that I'll ever use it. This seems like the sort of product that I would have bought when I was 12 or 13 not something I would get now. This is something that I may throw in my handbag to use but other than that I can't imagine getting much use out of it.

I Love Cosmetics Strawberries & Milkshake Shimmer & Shine Lipgloss £1.29

The last thing is the 2true caviar beads which I will never use as I am not a fan of this type of nail art as it is far too messy and time consuming for my liking. I would have preferred to have received a nail polish as at least then I would have used it.

2true Pro 3D Candy Nail Art

Overall I think I received some great items in my box that I can't wait to try the BB Cream and the mascara cover the cost of the box anyway so I am very happy to have them to try. I think I will renew my subscription as I love getting this box through my letterbox each month as it is such a good surprise in the middle of the month.

April Glossybox 2014

My April Glossybox arrived this week and I thought I would share with you what I got and what my impressions of the box as a whole were. I managed not to read any posts on this months box so it was truly a surprise when I opened it. I have ordered the products into which ones I liked the look of the most the first item is my favourite out of the box.

My favourite thing in the box was the Me Me Me Cosmetics Beat the Blues in Pearl Pink this is a cream highlighter that looks gorgeous when I swatched it. I've heard of this brand before but haven't actually tried anything from them so I am looking forward to giving this a go. I am a massive fan of highlighters but I have never tried a cream one before so it will be interesting to test it out.

Me Me Me Cosmetics Beat the Blues in Pearl Pink

£5.50 (this is the full size)

20% off code Glossybox2014 (expires 30/04/2014)

My next favourite item was this body oil. I love the scent of it as it smells of ginger which will not be to everyone's tastes. On the card it says it can be  used in the bath so I am looking forward to giving this a try. I think I will use it on Sunday Pamper Evenings. I've noticed on the website that they do a vanilla scented one so if I like this I might get the vanilla one as that is my all time favourite scent. 

MONU Spa Warming Ginger Massage & Body Oil

£26 for 100ml (received a 30ml sample)

The next item is the Tresemme Instant Refresh Cleansing Dry Shampoo I've only ever used Batiste dry shampoo so it will be interesting to give this a try. I like the Tresemme range so I should like this. 

Tresemme Instant Refresh Cleansing Dry Shampoo

£4.99 for 200ml (received the travel size with 100ml)

Next item is the SunSense Daily face SPF 50+ which will come in handy in the summer. I'm hoping that this won't be greasy as I find many SPFs are. I'm glad I got this over the tanning gel that I saw that some people got but I am not that excited about this product either. 

SunSense Daily face SPF 50+

£20.99 for 75g (received 10g)

25% off next purchase of Daily Face using code GLOSSY2014 

The last item is the Emite Makeup Lip Brush (L312) I am not super excited about this as I don't very often use lip brushes. Although this does feel like a good quality brush and I will definitely give it a try. I would have much preferred to receive an eyeshadow brush or face brush as I would have got more use from that. 

Emite Makeup Lip Brush (L312)

£17

Over all I don't think that this box was as good as lasts months but there are still some great products in it that I am looking forward to trying.

March Glossybox 2014

Today I wanted to share with you what I got in my March Glossybox. I know it is the end of March now but I still wanted to share mine with you. I got mine on Thursday as I ordered it earlier in the week. My parents got me a 3 month subscription as part of my birthday present. I plan to do full reviews of the products in separate posts.

On opening the box I was pleased with what I had received. The box is well packaged and is nicely presented. It comes with a little magazine which I enjoyed having a look through and it also comes with a card telling you what products are inside and where you can get them from. I am going to order the products below showing you the ones that I was most excited for. 

When I saw the Bellapierre mineral eyeshadow I was really excited. I have recently bought a few things from this brand in TK Maxx which I will be showing in  a separate post. I got the shade Diligence which I was really pleased with as it is a gorgeous bronze colour so I will get a lot of use out of it. 

I was happy to see something from Sleek in the box, I haven't tried many things from Sleek so I was looking forward to trying this. I got the shade Chocolate Kiss which is quite a sheer colour. I like the shade as it allows me to try the formula and if I like it I can buy a brighter shade.  

I really like using treatments on my hair as I love making my hair feel soft. I am looking forward to trying this as I have tried a conditioner from the Dove haircare range and I really liked that so I have high hopes for this. 

Some people don't like getting perfume samples but I quite like getting them as I use them when I go travelling as they are so small to put in your bag. I got samples of the new Juicy Couture Malibu perfumes which I am looking forward to trying. When I was reading other people's blogs I noticed people got different things. Some people got a serum and others got sachets of self tan. I would have quite liked to try the serum but I'm glad I got the perfume samples instead of the self tan as I wouldn't use it. 

This is probably the thing that I am least excited to see. It is a body cream from the brand Mitchell & Peach which is an English brand. It does smell quite nice but it is something that I would never purchase the full size as it is £36 which is really expensive for a body cream. 

I am really impressed with my first box and I am looking forward to getting my next months box.
