It's that time again! It's Glossybox time! If your unfamiliar with Glossybox it's a monthly beauty subscription box (£10 + p&p) where you receive 5 beauty products tailored to your beauty profile which you fill out when you sign up. It's a great way of discovering beauty brands you may not have heard of. You can also earn Glossydots which can equal a free box! This month I redeemed my Glossydots so this box was free. Bonus!
This month's Glossybox theme is 'Beauty Blossom'. In this month's box there is a real mix of beauty products from makeup to hair care to perfume.
Glossybox always comes well presented in a glossy pale pink box with a magazine and a card to tell you what you have received in your box, how to use it and how much it's worth.
First impressions were good! I was pleased with what I had received in my box.
First product out of my box was 'Mitchell and Peach Body Cream'. RRP £36 for 180ml. The sample I received was 40ml and worth £8. This product dissolves really well into my skin and leaves it feeling very soft but I really don't like the smell of it. It's very natural and earthy and I do prefer fruit scented body creams.
Next product is the 'Sleek MakeUp Pout Polish' RRP £4.49 for 10g. This product is full size and I received the shade 'Bare Minimum 963'. I don't own anything from the brand Sleek so I was happy this was in my box. It's not a very pigmented shade at all. It's more like a high gloss balm that would be perfect over your favourite lipstick to give it a glossy finish.
Next is 'Bellapierre Cosmetics Ltd Shimmer Powders' in the shade Beige. RRP £12.99 for 2.35g. This is another full sized product I received in my box. This is a gorgeous, very pigmented shimmer eye shadow. This could be blended out for a day look or layered up for a party look. I'm very pleased with this product.
'Juicy Couture Malibu Collection'. RRP £47 for 75ml. This is the first time I've ever received a perfume sample in a Glossybox and I'm not disappointed. Both are very different but very fresh and perfect for spring and last a long time which is a big bonus!
The last product in my box was the 'Dove Hair Therapy Intensive Repair 60 Second Treatment Shot'. RRP £1.49 for 15ml. This is also a full sized product and I was happy to receive this as I have frizzy coloured hair. So any treatment on my hair is very appreciated. I have yet to try this but I'm sure I will like it.
The value of my Glossybox was over £26.
Glossybox can be very hit and miss. Some months can be fantastic and others really poor. I signed up in November, so this was my sixth box. So far I've had two bad boxes, one awful box and three good boxes. I'm still very on the fence at the moment to whether I continue with this beauty box or subscribe to another one as there seems to some really good ones out there now.
Let me know if you received something different in your Glossybox or if you are subscribed to a different beauty box that you love.
Until next time
xoxo
