Glossybox #6 - May 2012

Happy Birthday!
This month is Glossybox’s birthday, so I have received their birthday box yesterday! You get your five products, as usual and two extras, a double sided pocket mirror and a pink Happy Birthday balloon! So let’s get into what I got.
NOBLE ISLE Summer Rising Bath & Shower Gel
- 75ml Sample Size
The beauty card says that this is, “An immaculate fragrance evoking the beginnings of summer”. It smells really nice and it reminds me of a Lion King perfume I had when I was a child.

Lolita Lempicka Perfume Samples
Lolita Lempicka & Si Lolita
- 8ml Sample Size’s
The full size bottles for these perfumes are very cute indeed, as are the little samples I got, but I have to say they are not my kind of scents at all, because they smell like they would be for more mature women, but I will use them up.

Lolita Lempicka is the stronger smelling of the two in a violet coloured vile and strikes me as more of a night time kind of scent; it is described as being a floral scent with liquorice flower, which is why it smells quite strong and musky. I couldn’t wear this on an everyday basis, because it reminds me a bit of the Pink Sugar perfume, which makes me feel sick.

Si Lolita is the lighter more natural smelling of the two in a light pink coloured vile and is more of a day scent. It is definitely a floral scent because you can really smell the sweet pea, which comes across a bit spicy. I think this is the one I prefer the most out of the two.

APIVITA Express Beauty Masks with Orange
- 8ml Sample Size’s
I haven’t tried these out yet, but I will do eventually. The masks are supposed to enhance the antioxidant action with their green tea infusion and they do not contain water. Overall

OSMO Berber Oil Hair Treatment
- 10ml Sample Size
This is a hair oil, which contain argon oil and it says it is suitable for all types of hair. It is supposed to nourish dry and damaged hair. It smells quite nice, like Haribo Gummy Bears, but because it is oil I cannot use it, because it may be suitable for all hair, but putting an oil product on oily hair doesn’t make sense to me.

Eldora False Eyelashes in B144
- Full Size
These are really nice looking lashes. People were complaining about which ones they received, because apparently there were glittery/drag queen ones, which obviously people weren’t into. So I am glad I got the most ‘natural’ pair. I do not wear fake eye lashes, but I will try these one day, but they are quite flimsy, so I think I would struggle a lot, but on the plus side, they already come with glue and they are quite inexpensive.

This was sadly my last box though, as I have now un-subscribed, because I am getting bored of them now! I will be doing a post about my experience as a whole very soon, so look out for that!

Perfume Power! - Avril Lavigne 'Black Star'

This is my third bottle of this perfume and in the 30ml too. The bottle is designed as a star, which has a black star shaped studded cap. Around the neck of the bottle is a studded metal choker ring, which is removable and wearable for your finger. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Blackcurrant, Mango, Pear & Black Plum Middle Notes: Jasmine, Lotus & Pink Hibiscus Base Notes: Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla & Dark Mexican Chocolate To me it smells really light, fruity, floral and incredibly feminine. The floral notes stand out to me the most, as well as the musk. All of the notes complement each other very well and it is one of my all-time favourite perfumes. My only criticism is  after a while I cannot smell it on me, but people have said they can still smell it, so it must last longer than your nose leads you to believe! I just personally like to be able to still smell the perfume on me, because it is GORGEOUS! I will definitely keep on re-purchasi...

Colourpop Limoncello Palette

I first saw the tease of this palette on Trendmood’s Instagram and it instantly attracted me. I love the packaging and colour story, it just reminds me of summer. The design on the palette would also make a lovely and classy wallpaper pattern. This palette is part of the Limoncello Collection. THE PACKAGING The packaging is made out of cardboard, which is wrapped with a white, blue and yellow flowery and lemon design. The palette name and branding is printed in gold and the shade names are printed on the back of the palette. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the inside of the palette. The circle eyeshadow pans are arranged on a pale yellow, lemon skin textured base with the shade names printed above them at an angle in blue font. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid. The mirror is inside a yellow cardboard base and it has a corner flower and lemon design on it. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get twelve 1g eyeshadows in Matte (M) and Metallic (ME) f...
