Glossybox #9 - April 2014

You may have noticed that last Friday I posted about my June 2014 Glossybox, well the day after I received that one, my free box came and I am annoyed! I was led to believe from the e-mail that the free box would be July, but instead I received the April 2014 box! I noticed that a few people were annoyed too, but Glossybox insist they promised a free past box, not the limited edition 4^th July box! Anyway, here is what I got in this box:-

EMITE MAKE UP Lip Brush (L312)

| £17 – EmiteMakeUp.com |

I’ve not heard of this brand before and it is an odd shaped lip brush. I will definitely try it out and I can’t believe how expensive it is!

MONU Spa Warming Ginger Massage & Body Oil

| £26 (100ml) – MonuShop.co.uk |

This brand is too new to me and I’m not really into oils. I will however give this a go because it smells lovely.

MeMeMe Cosmetics Beat The Blues in Pearl Pink

| £5.50 (12ml) – MeMeMeCosmetics.co.uk |

I have heard of this brand and my local Superdrug used to sell it. I was interested in buying this exact product and then my Superdrug discontinued the brand, but I can now try it. It reminds me so much of my beloved Benefit High Beam.

TRESemmé Instant Refresh Cleansing Dry Shampoo

| £4.99 (200ml) – Tresemme.co.uk |

I have used this brand for years and I don’t mind trying a new dry shampoo. It doesn’t really smell like you would expect, but I will be interested to test it on my oily hair!

Unica Cosmetics Radiance Plus

Bergamot & Lavender

| £12.95 (50ml) – UnicaCosmetics.com |

This brand is completely new to me and the product does smell nice. I will give it a go, seeing as though I am always shopping around for new face moisturisers to try.

Although I am disappointed that this is the free box, this box is actually quite nice. Not as good as June’s box, but there is products here that I will use. I am keeping my subscription still though because I really want July’s box, even if I have to pay for it!

What are your thoughts on this box?

O.P.I Breakfast at Tiffany's Mini Mani Month Set

I heard that O.P.I would be releasing a Breakfast at Tiffany’s Collection and I was really interesting in trying some shades, so when I was browsing the O.P.I website and came across this set, I snapped it up straight away! The packaging is like a white and lilac fashion book and it has a beauty advent calendar vibe. It is a sort of alternative to a beauty calendar. There are five rows with five shades covering two sides of the book. You can open the windows that cover the shades, but it will reveal all five shades, which is why it doesn’t quite pass as a calendar. Plus, you can’t actually take the bottles out like you would a beauty/chocolate calendar. You have to open the sides of the book and pull out the five separate plastic trays which hold the bottles. There seems to be a lot of wasted packaging this way. You get twenty-five 3.75ml bottles of Nail Lacquer and the set contains new shades from the Breakfast at Tiffany’s Collection, and some old favourites already pa...

GUCCI Mini Perfume Gift Set

Today I am going to review a perfume gift set that I bought from Boots.com during their Boxing Day sales 2014. It is the GUCCI Miniatures Gift Set and it was exclusively sold in Boots stores and on Boots.com. I love the concept of mini perfume sets and it’s a shame that not more brands do them! You get to sample more scents from brands, and if there is a certain perfume you are interested in, you would be able to sample it before potentially wasting your money buying a full size bottle of a scent you might not like. In this particular set you get five (5ml) mini fragrances to sample and I actually already bought a full size of the Guilty scent, but waited until I got this set to test it! A big gamble I know, but it did pay off this time! Here are the five miniature bottles of scents included:- FLORA BY GUCCI The bottle is so cute and with a little ribbon bow too. The notes contained in this little bottle are; citrus, peony, mandarin, osmanthus, rose, sandalwood, patchouli and ...
