Glossybox for Net-A-Porter Limited Edition Box - November 2013

Sorry for my absence and to make up for that, I'm reviewing the newest limited edition box from Glossybox. It cost £20 plus £5 shipping and comes direct from net-a-porter.

We have some super luxurious packaging from n-a-p with a cute little measuring tape freebie and lots of bubble wrapped plastic packages inside to keep everything safe. As much as this was 'that bit extra' it did seem a bit wasteful.

The first product was the Philip B Beach Mist which retails for £22 on the website, right away giving us the value of the box. A review on this product is to come!

Next was the roll on perfume from Joya. This has a very strong and distinct scent which is not my cup of tea. 

Next is the ila Bath Salts for Inner Peace. A full jar of these retail for about £70 which is slightly crazy for bath salts so I was glad to get a very decent sized sample. Looking forward to my next bubble bath!

Next is my favourite product and the reason I bought this box. This retails at £20 on the n-a-p website which lifts this box's value even higher. 

The bullet shape of the mascara is very distinctive and I like it a lot. Review to come after a week or two of testing.

Next up is the Natura Bisse Diamond White brightening cream. The full size of this cream also retails at a much higher value than the cost of this box. I'm excited to try it but will probably pass it on to my mum.

Lastly, we have the Elizabeth Arden Prevage Anti-aging Daily Serum. This is another product I will pass on to my mother who rejoices when any of my glossy boxes contain anti aging products. I will be sure to update you guys on any improvements she sees.

Overall, I felt this was a good limited edition box. I like that all the boxes are the same, with everyone receiving the same 6 products. It takes away from the surprise element but seems fairer. Thumbs up!

Glossybox September 2013 London Edition Review

I received my glossybox in the post today and though I'd start a monthly review of them since I know many people, including myself, love to check out other people's boxes to compare with their own, it's all part of the fun of it!

Personally, I loved the box this month, keep reading to find out why!

First of all I loved the packaging with the Union Jack and pretty red paper. I'll definitely be using this box to keep makeup and accessories in.

I got a pair of eylure lashes worth about £5, almost half the box's price already! They are good quality and will be great for a night out.

I also got this Toni&Guy hair serum, worth £7. I generally don't use serum as it makes my hair greasy but I will pass it on to my mum who has dry hair.

Next, I got this felt tip liner from Be A Bombshell Cosmetics in the colour, Onyx, worth $14. I wore this to uni today and it has a very precise tip despite its 'chubby' size. It lasted well and I can see me wearing it often.

Not everyone loves perfume samples, however, this Liz Arden 'Untold' perfume is a very wearable, green fragrance and has a beautiful bottle so I'm happy enough with it.

Lastly, my final and favourite product is the HD Brows Blusher (no.2), worth a whopping £17.95. I love the HD Brows brand and received their Eye and Brow Palette from glossybox last year and use it everyday on my eyebrows. This is a warm pink shade with gold flecks. It is extremely pigmented and gives a nice, natural flushed look to the face.

Overall, this has been my favourite box to date for the last year or so. The products it contains come to at least £20 over the cost of box and I believe I received this box using glossy dots for filling in surveys on their website, making this box even better!

What did you get in your box?
