GlossyBox and Recent Purchases

You have probably heard loads about GlossyBox already, so i am not going to go into too much detail. Basically you pay £10 a month and you get sent 5 Luxury sample size items of new products and unknown brands. For more info here's a link to the website GlossyBox

I was visiting friends and family last week, so i didn't actually get my box until yesterday. I had been keeping up with reading blog posts so i knew what was going to be in it. I was still very excited.
In the box came 5 products, A full size NARS Orgasm Illuminator 30ml, Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Rapid Repair Spray 25ml, Full size All For Eve Lipstick in Eve Red, COMO Shambhala Invigorate Body Lotion 50ml and Bionova Lab Bioactive Cleanser for normal/dry skin 4ml.

NARS was the only brand i had heard of before, so i was excited to try out the products and learn more about the brands.
My favorite product so far is the Alterna caviar repair spray. It smells AMAZING!
The NARS illuminator is defiantly the next favorite. Its a lovely peach shimmery shade and gives your cheeks a nice glow.
The body lotion is a bit to strong for me. So will probably just use it on my feet.
I'm not a lipstick girl, so was a little disappointed in the All For Eve Lipstick, but when I tried it on, it applied so smoothly and is such a lovely colour. I'm going to wear it around the house to start building my confidence. Then hopefully ill be brave enough to leave the house with bright red lips soon.
The only product i haven't tried yet is the cleanser. (Will probably try that tonight)
Overall I think the box is such good value for money and a good way to try products out that you wouldn't normally try. I'm already excited for next months box.



Whilst visiting friends and family last week i did a little bit of shopping. Debenhams had 10% off all beauty and fragrance, i was going to buy Benefits new eye cream, but as i was browsing the counter and the starter kit caught my eye, which has a miniature size of the whole skincare range in it. For £9 i decided to go for that instead.
I Also popped to MAC and picked up Mystery Eyeshadow (which had been on my list for ages) and Glided White Powerpoint Pencil from the Surf Baby collection. I thought this would be good to apply on the waterline to wake up my eyes on those days when I'm super tired.
I'm now officially broke after a week of eating out, shopping and enjoying myself. No more shopping for me for a while.

Did you sign up for the Glossybox?
