May Glossybox

So it's that time of the month again, yep Glossybox time. I get so excited when my box arrives, and have found so many new loves through this beauty box, that it's definitely worth the subscription every month. 


This month Glossybox has been up and running for 2 years, so the box was themed around parties. Lot's of vibrant colours and packaging, I loved it. Here's the products I discovered in this months box:


Givenchy Noir Couture Mascara

I love trying new mascaras and think minis like this are a great way to trial them. I have so many mascaras on the go at the moment, but I can't wait to try this. This promises curl, volume and instant lift, I hope it's all true! 

Caudalie Divine Oil

Caudalie used to be one of my favourite skincare brands, but recently I haven't been using their products as much. So needless to say I was very excited to get this oil in my box this month. It's multi purpose so you can use it on your body, hair and face. A new love possibly?

Premae Harmony Balm

I've never tried any products from Premae before, but I've heard about their skincare. This product acts as a moisturiser and a primer, which leaves the skin with a silky dewy finish. It also promises to reduce excess oil in the skin and soothe breakouts. I'm hoping it lives up to the hype. 

Beautiful Movements Cosmetics Prime & Create Mixing Medium

A lovely new product from the former BM Beauty range. This is basically a clear aloe vera based gel which will turn your favourite blushes, bronzers, eye shadows etc in to beautiful cream creations. Or you can use it alone as a primer. Again, this is promising!

Nails Inc in Portobello

And finally I received a small Nails Inc nail polish in the gorgeous colour Portobello. I love this coral colour for summer and it's a perfect addition to my summer nail collection which (weather permitting) I'll hopefully be delving in to soon.

This month Glossybox also included some cute handbag sized nail files which was a lovely addition. They've gone straight in my bag for those nail emergency's! :)

What did you get in you beauty box this month?

November Glossybox

So this months Glossy Box is entitled 'Stocking Fillers' with some lovely little treats inside.

I must admit, when I saw the name 'Stocking Fillers' I expected the samples to be a little more affordable than a normal months box. This really isn't the case with a couple of the products, I class £5 - £15 as a stocking filler max! But anyway, it's still a good box regardless. Here's what was in it:



Olay Regenerist 3-Point Treatment Cream

Olay have introduced this product in to their already popular Regenerist line, which boasts to be fragrance free and kinder on the skin. I quite like this cream, although I do feel like it lies on top of my skin more than other moisturisers. 

Wei Beauty Jujube Age Control Serum

The first thing that struck me about this sample is the cute little packaging, I thought it was really sweet. This anti ageing serum also helps to reduce redness in the skin tone. I have given this sample to my mum to try, and awaiting her verdict. 

Alison Claire Mango Body Butter

I really liked this body butter, it smells gorgeous, is a lovely consistency for massaging in to the skin, and leaves my skin feeling great. This sample is the perfect size for travelling, and has gone straight in to my travel case for future nights away.

Nails Inc Kensington Caviar Top Coat

I was excited to see this in the box this month after using Sally Hansen's Nail Shine Miracle for so long. This seems slightly longer to dry than Sally Hansen's top coat, but just as efficient. My nails didn't chip for days! All in all, I will probably give the full size version a go after finishing this. 
Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant

This was definitely my favourite product this month. This powder formula turns in to a paste when mixed with water, then gently rubbed over your face leaves it feeling great and incredibly soft. I really like this product but am teetering on whether to buy it again for one reason... the smell! I really don't like it, it smells like dissolvable paracetamol when you drink one, and I never drink them as they make me feel really sick, bleurgh! Since this is purely psychological, i may give it another go! :)

What did you get in Novembers Glossybox? Not long till Decembers now! Excited for the christmas box!
