February 2016 Glossybox

I always look forward to the February Glossybox because from past experience it’s usually a limited edition design and usually full of great goodies. In the past we have even received chocolate! This month was no exception, with a fun and flirty design I couldn’t wait to crack open my box and see what was inside. With 5 full sized items we were certainly in for a treat.

Browtician – Love Skull Tweezers – Full Size £7.99
I have never heard of this brand before but it is readily available in Superdrug. I was in need of some new tweezers as my mum stole mine so these couldn’t have arrived at a better time. I love the limited edition packaging. It makes them super easy to see in my makeup bag. The tip of these tweezers have been finished by hand and allow great precision when plucking those pesky hairs. I can see these being my new favourite.

Naobay – Protective Hair Mask Volume Conditioner – Full Size £10.64
I have received a few Naobay products before from Glossybox and it is a brand I like but I was disappointed the packaging didn’t follow on from previous products with the wood finish lid. Nevertheless I love a conditioning mask. I use heat on my hair often so it’s always nice to be able to give my hair a deep nourishing conditioning session. Upon trying this I loved how my hair felt. It was silky smooth and really easy to comb through at the end which was great. I would repurchase this product and use it every so often when I am in need of a pamper.

Nicka K New York – 24 Hr Waterproof Eyeliner – Full Size £3.99
I have previously received items from Nicka K in the past from Glossybox so this is a brand that is familiar to me (see my product directory for previous reviews). I love waterproof eyeliners as they don’t budge and they are great for the colder weather when the icy winds make your eyes water. I received this in the colour brown which I do not currently own and I enjoy wearing this when I want something less harsh than dark black. The great thing about this eyeliner is that it comes equipped with a built in sharpener.

MUA – Power Pout Glaze Low Voltage Gloss – Full Size £3.50
I will be honest I am not a huge fan of this product as I don’t like sticky glosses. I have seen that some people were able to choose the colour they wanted but I must have missed the email as I never got to choose. I received the colour Serenity which is a lovely pink colour with sheer colour payoff. I love the subtle hint of colour it provides but the formula is too sticky for me. For £5 off when you spend £20 or more, use code MUAGLOSSY2 online.

Wilkinson Sword – Intuition Razor – Full Size £6.99
Correct me if I am wrong but have we received this item in a Glossybox before? I’m not sure but I was pleased as this is the razor I currently use and it saves me buying some new heads for a little while. I recommend taking the head off after each use and popping it back in the plastic container because otherwise the soapy bit gets everywhere especially when I pop this in my gym bag. I am a huge fan of Wilkinson Sword and love this razor. It is great for more sensitive areas and provides a really close smooth shave without leaving nasty rashes or bumps. I will continue repurchasing this item.

Overall I really like this month’s box and will be making full use out of it. Do you get Glossybox? Link me your reviews in the comments.

January 2015 Glossybox

It's that time again! I received my Glossybox just over a week ago now so I've had time to trial all of the products and let you know what I think. Please let me know what you got in your boxes, I love reading other people's Glossybox reviews!

Naked Lips - Organic Lip Balm Superfruits - Full Size €5

This lip balm is 100% natural and is really fruity. The 'flavour' I received was Blueberry, acai, goji, baobab and pomegranate. This really does leave my lips feeling nourished and gives them a light glossy sheen. I have millions of lip balms and usually just use Vaseline but I think I will switch to this one because I love how it tastes, it reminds me of summer and cocktails!

Nicka K New York - Colorluxe Powder Blush - Full Sized €8.95

I received this blush in the colour Romantic which is a really soft pink colour. The idea of this packaging is to stop powder explosions at the bottom of your handbag. When I opened this it went everywhere, the puff kind of exploded. That's when I realised that you're only supposed to take off the gold lid, not the whole thing..oops! I really like the colour of this and it applied really well and really makes your eyes pop. This is great value for the amount of product you get too.

Jelly Pong Pong - All Over Glow - Full  Size £10 (15g)

I really like the packaging on this product, the design is eye catching. When I first tried this product I put way too much on, you really do only need the tiniest of blobs. The colour of this is extremely shimmery and I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for day to day use but for a night out this is going to be perfect. It especially looks nice when the light hits it, great for cheekbones and even on the body on your collarbones I think this would work well. Oh, and this stays put for AGES.

MeMeMe Eye Line Pencil in Clay - Full Size £4

This pencil is actually really nice to use despite it not being a colour I would usually pick up. It smudges really nicely and seems to stay put on the waterline for quite some time. It makes a nice change from a black eyeliner and I find myself using this and creating a brown smoky eye day to day.

Kueshi Natural and Pleasant Cosmetics - Revitalizing Face Toner - Full Size €10.70

I've never really used a toner before so I was looking forward to trying this out. The colour intrigued me, it looks like it's going to smell a bit chemically but it's made with natural ingredients. I can't describe what this smells like but it is quite strong and I usually prefer to use unscented products on my face. I can't say I noticed much of a difference in my skin but I really like how refreshing it is and it wakes me up in the morning so I will continue to use this until it has ran out.

Great box Glossybox, I think I'll use all of these items.
