Latest In Beauty Box: The Glamour Beauty Edit

Here with a review today of a non glossy beauty box for once! As soon as I seen the products in this box for such a good price I knew I had to get it!

I'm not going into detail with the products as everyone receives the same and they're pretty self-explanatory.

I was very excited about the HD Brows palette which I already own but getting a new one for free was too good to resist. I would have loved to get the lighter Bombshell palette to use on fairer eyebrows but Foxy will do for me! I also own the big benefit mascara but a baby one is always handy and will fit nicely in my handbag.

I was happy to receive the maybelline baby lips balm as I've been wanting to try that since forever! I got a lovely cherry colour which smells of cherries (duh) and leaves a very slight red tint to the lips.

I also love the brand balance me; I already own their eye cream and use it religiously. I've recently really gotten into using oils to remove my makeup so their Radiance Face Oil will certainly be getting used with its handy rollerball bottle too!

I love eyelash curlers even though I don't use them every day. The Eyeko ones in this box are very high quality with velvet handles. I've accumulated quite a few pairs from various boxes lately so I'll definitely be trying these out.

Less excited about the hair products but I was needing a new hairspray so I'll give the Toni&Guy one a go and Dry shampoo spray is always a winner as well!

Cost: £14.95 plus shipping
Value: over £60?

Verdict: A great box with a lot of my favourite products. Worth getting even just for the replenishment value of some items.

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!
