This month I re-subscribed to Glossy box after a beauty budget cut down. I got so excited that I turned to Instagram to share my opening experience. As soon as Glossy Box announced it's London Edition box, I knew I had to come back and take part. And, I'm pleased I did.
The box itself and the packaging represents British colours of the union Jack: red, blue and white.
The contents of my box:
Elizabeth Arden: Untold Eau De Parfum
Elizabeth Arden definitely represents a British beauty classic. For years, I've been a fan of products such as the 8 hour moisturising balm though I have not purchased perfumes from the Elizabeth Arden range before. As described by Glossy Box, it's a luxurious, floral fragrance that is fresh and feminine. Unlike some other perfumes sent from Glossybox, I am partial to wearing this and may even invest in a cheeky little bottle.
Full size £48 for 50ML
Eylure Pre Glued Lashes
I have used varies different types of Eylure lashes before but I have always felt skeptical about products that are 'pre-glued' or self-adhesive. Duno why? Perhaps, its with my lack of success with pre-glued, 'stick on nails' that placed doubt in my mind. However, gone is my trepidation. Last night, I decided to give these a trial. And oh yes, these bad boys have amazing staying on. The only problem is, they did irritate my eyes slightly so I could not keep them on all night. But they are a 4/5 for me
One set £5.06
Tony and Guy Shine Glass Serum
Recently, I had about 4 inches chopped of my locks in order to revive some life into. Sure enough, my hair has become healthier showing some signs of strength and shine. However, I want more. I want shiny, glossy, Nicole Scherzinger kind of shine. So, I'm hoping this will give me what I need.
Full sized retails at £7.19
be a...bombshell Onyx Eye Liner
It is the first time I have come across 'be a bombshell' products. and I have to say, this is a great eye liner and offers enough precision to achieve a fine line and bold, thick definition depending on your preference. You definitely want to use a good eye make up remover to shift this stuff off. The longevity lasts almost 6/7 hours on my oily eyelids so I have faith it this little number.
Full size $14
Dr.Lipp Nipple Balm for Lips
This is probably the most disappointing product I received. But, that is not to say I do not like it. It because I'm slightly jealous of those that got all of the above products, plus the HB Brows kit. I have been after one of those for ages!! Nevertheless, I love anything with moisture. Indeed, I had a chuckle when I read 'nipple' and thought, why is Glossy box sending my nipple balm? Then I realised how much of a beauty cult product this is. Originally recommended by Midwives from breastfeeding, it claims to moisturise skin by upto 40%. I might keep this in my handbag over winter as my lips become really dry.
Fully Size (15ml) retails at £11.50
I would love to hear the feedback from you guys. It's not too late to pick one of these boxes up from Glossy Box themselves though availability is obviously limited.
