Valentine's GlossyBox

So this months glossybox has arrived.. which means Im a very happy girl, if you guys are not up to date with beauty boxes...then ill give you the run down.


Beauty boxes i.e. Glossybox is £10 plus P+P (£2.95 i think) it is a monthly subscription which you can leave at anytime, you are not signed to any contract which is one of the reasons i joined. i liked the idea that i can leave when i like, if the products are not what Im looking for......i think Glossybox is a great idea for people (id say mostly young people) that are not sure what kind of products they are looking for. and have the option of trying new products they may not of heard of before...i know that i have found some little gems that i wouldn't have found on the high street, so its a great way of finding these great items


Visit there website if you interested in subscribing www.GlossyBox.co.uk 


So like i said this months box has arrived, and with this months theme being valentines GlossyBox have put together 5 products to pamper and preen yourself. And i was so excited to open the box and find that this months was there valentines special box in a gorgeous bright pink box: 





















So to the products inside ....after all this is the most important part of the box.....i was pretty excited when i first untied the ribbon and lifted back the tissue paper however there were some ups and downs to the products i received, i know that people get all different types of products in there box, as there not all the same. 
so ill give the run down of the items:



  • Eyeko Skinny Eyeliner - Plum- i was really excited to see this Im a bit of a sucker for a new eyeliner, so when i saw it in one of my favorite colours   i was very excited at trying it, it has a very creamy texture with it being very smooth to apply, it blends very well to give a smoky eye look as well as looking great on the waterline.
  • Orly Nail Lacquer- Ruby, although Im not a massive fan of bright red nail vanish i did try this and i actually liked it its quite a dark red more than i bright red, it applies really nice i only needed one coat unlike my usual 2, so looking forward to buying more colours of this.


  •  Weleda One Step Cleanser & Toner - Im a great fan of weleda products had a few before i find them great on my skin and leave it feeling great, and i wasn't disappointed when it came to this product was really good at taking of makeup and left my skin feeling really refreshed , I used it before i went to bed and my skin was still very soft n felt very clean and refreshed the following morning, so i was very impressed with this item Im defiantly going to be buying some more of this ....
  • FAB ( First Aid Beauty) Gentle Body Wash- i wasn't too sure with this item when i first saw it, Im not very familiar with FAB so was looking forward to using it, however it wasn't really what i expected, even though it said it was a body was. it seamed more like a moisturizer than a body wash. it did leave my skin feeling very clean and soft but i don't think i would be repurchasing the product as it wasn't a favorite.
  • Murad Hybirds Skin Perfecting Primer -Dewy finish - i was really looking forward to using this when i first saw it in the box, as Im not usually a regular face primer kinda girl, i do use my too faced shadow insurance for my eyes but have never had a face primer, however using the primer on my face before applying my foundation i found the colour was to dark for my skin i gave me almost a orange face. i just wish it was in a slightly lighter shade then it would have been great, it did leave me with a nice dewy finish but not a kind of item i would use again.

Aswell as the 5 products glossybox gave us a little treat this month with a lovely little glossybox sweetie:




I Loved this little touch, was a lovely little treat i think it is actually a little to nice to eat...that probably sounds a little sad lol 
So HAPPY VALENTINE'S to everyone !!!
