Glossy Box; September

September Glossy Box, came in a limited edition box to celebrate London fashion week. The box has been designed by London based up-and-coming illustrator Maggi Li. 

Isn't it gorgeous! I can't wait for my room to be finished so i can keep this on my dressing table. It is definitely my favourite Glossy Box so far. But, on to the contents...

First Up, Rodial, Glamoxy Snake Serum and 5 Minute Facial. In the little envelope i got 2 sachets of each product, the full size version actually comes in sachets as well, you get 10x1ml sachets the snake serum retails at £29 and the 5 minute facial retails at £10.95. Its a revolutionary product that apparently has instantly visible results, I've not used it so cant say whether this is right or not, the product supposedly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The 5 minute facial is a triple action resurfacing gommage clay mask. It all sounds very technical, i look forward to trying them both.

Maghrabian Hair Oil, i don't know if I've said this before but, I LOVE HAIR OIL. I'm currently using L'Oreal Mythic Oil, so haven't actually tried this one out yet. It contains Argan Oil and helps to Nourish hydrate and condition your hair, making it super soft and shiny. I honestly can't praise hair oil enough, i love love love the stuff and cannot wait to try this one.

Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream, all i can say is BORED OF BALANCE ME. P.s This is actually a pretty good eye cream.

Vichy Idealia Day Care Cream, this is a smoothing and illuminating day cream. The cream is a gorgeous pink colour and has a really nice subtle scent. Its for Normal - Combination skin, and has a really nice semi-thick texture. A little bit really goes a long way, and even though its illuminating it isn't glittery! definitely a bonus.The sample is 15ml, and comes in a cute little glass jar. Full size is 50ml and retails for £25

And last but by no means least. LADY GAGA FAME, this couldn't be one of the most anticipated celebrity fragrances. Its the first beauty product from Lady Gaga, the liquid is black in the bottle but turns clear when sprayed, crazy eh? I think Tierry Muglar has done a similar think but with purple? I'm not sure. I'm really surprised at how nice the fragrance actually is. Not that i was expecting it to be horrible, but i was expecting it to be quite deep and musky and not really to my taste, But its actualyl quite floral. 'Tears of Belladonna, Crushed heart of Tiger Orchidea, with a black veil of incense. Pulverized Apricot and the combinative essences of Saffron and Honey Drops'

Sounds pretty dark and ominous, the the perfume is gorgeous floral and fruity. Really very very nice!

So that's September Glossy Box, again there was a massive variation on boxes and prices. But oh well, these things happen. I quite like my box?

what did you think of Septembers Glossy Box?

Glossy Box; June 2012

My Glossy Box arrived while i was on holiday, and since i've come back, i've just been in holiday mode, My blog has been neglected & every other routine has sort of gone to pot. I've been back a week now, so i think its about time I get organised again.

So finally here is my June Glossy Box.

Now i've looked at a few reviews of this months box, and i think i've only seen 1 other person with the same box as me? I know each month there is always a box people brand the 'duff' box. But have a got the good box this month? I feel like its a rare box haha. Let me know...?

This month, EVERYONE recieved the GlossyBox branded goat hair brush. I have SO many make up brushes, this one isn't the nicest, but it certainly isn't the worst. Its feels a little scratchy, and i find goat hair brushes smell a bit funny. But if it does the job, does it really matter? I do like that its a nice compact size! I'm not sure i agree with £15 price tag.

Next is a BM beauty Summer Warmth Bronzer, I think this is another item everyone got in their boxes. If you've read some of my other posts, you'll know i'm quite in love with BM Beauty products, so i was pretty happy to find this in the box. The products are so versitile and can often be used as not only a what their intended for, but also a Eyeshadow/bronzer/blush. Its a 1g sample,which is loads.This is a gorgeous summery glow! and would also be perfect for creating a subtle day time eye shadow look. (i forgot to swatch it, but will try and add it in a bit later)

Now i dont know if everyone got this item, but apart fromt he bronzer i think its my other favourite.Yves Rocher France, mini mascara, ultra-volume sexy plump. I  love love love the effect this mascara gives! It seperates my lashes beautifully and doesn't clump. It definitely does plump! I already have naturally long lashes, this mascara just gives them that extra something. I would definitely contemplate buying a full size!

Vichy, dermablend ultra-corrective foundation cream stick. I'm pretty sure everyone got this sample in their boxes. I think this is a great sample! you get a selection of 6 colours, each one is 1g. If its a product you were looking at getting, or just interested in trying. The sample pack is great, there's enough product in there to try it out for a fair period of time. There is also a good selection of colours. I believe the sample pack is for sale, as it has a bar code on the packet. A full size foundation stick is £19.00/12g

The last thing i got in my box is the item that seems different from everyone else. Which was Dermalogica Clean Start Day/Night 3 Step mini kit. I actually got a bit excited by this, i LOVE Dermalogica. But, once i actually read the box and the products, i decided that i dont really think its suitable for my skin. The kit contains a foaming facewash, purifying toner and SPF mattifying moisturiser. I think the set is meant for people with oilier skin than i have. I definitely wont be using the moisturiser, but i think i'll give the face wash a go as i love the smell of it! 

So thats my June GlossyBox, did you get the same box as me?

Lots of Love
