Glossybox #19 - December 2015

I have been really looking forward to this box as I knew it would be rose gold themed. All the products were carefully selected by the Beauty Blogger ReallyRee, for this special looking limited edition Christmas box.  Here is what I received:-
être belle Golden Skin Caviar Eye Roll On
| 10ml - £30.66 |
This product is a bit odd and really doesn’t appeal to me at all!

So Susan Statement Skin Highlighter Pencil in Starlight
| 1.8g - £15.00 |
This is a very strange colour and the cream shape is odd too. I am not interested in this product one bit. I prefer light pink highlighters and this is a yellow gold shade, not flattering at all for my skin tone!

COLLECTION Long Lasting Nail Effects in Touch of Glamour (31)
| 8ml - £2.99 |
This nail polish looks really pretty and it is definitely my kind of shade (rose gold). I am looking forwarded to trying it on my nails. I think it would look beautiful on it’s own.

Hylamide Pore Delete
| 10ml - £18.00 |
This is something I am interested in. Hopefully it will do something positive for the troublesome pores on my nose.

essence Liquid Lipstick in Show Off
| 4ml - £2.50 |
This is an amazing colour and the pigmentation is astounding, but I just wouldn’t use it. I dislike liquid lipsticks because they are like lip-glosses, which I hate and the bright colour of this particular product scares me!

Starskin Bio-Cellulose Second Skin Mask
| 1 Mask - £8.50 |
I’ve not used a sheet mask before and I am interested in trying it, but I can’t say I will bother with another. It’s just easier for me to quirt a mask out and rub it on my face and leave it, rather than worrying about taking it out of the packet carefully and unfolding it correctly to place on my face.
Overall this was a good box, but slightly disappointing. I was expecting more considering it was put together by a Beauty Blogger, but I do love the box design. Was I the only one expecting to get a glittering rose gold bauble, especially considering it is supposed to be the Christmas edition of Glossybox?

What are your thoughts on this box?

Serial Sampler #33

I once sent off for a perfume sample from Lancôme on Facebook and periodically they still send me samples of their new perfume releases. I received this one a while ago (ages after it first launched), but I have only just got around to testing it.   It is Idôle by Lancôme and it is a 1.2ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   Launched: 2019   Type: Floral Notes Top: Pear and Bergamot. Middle: Turkish Rose, Rose de Mai and Indian Jasmine. Base: White Musk and Vanilla. It is a really light spring time floral scent. It isn’t too mature smelling and it is not overpowering. It reminds me of the Gucci Flora and Hugo Boss Ma Vie perfumes a little. I can really smell the Bergamot, Rose, Jasmine and Musk notes. It is a fresh floral scent and would be good for day time wear. I do really like it, although it isn’t my typical choice of scent. I personally won’t be buying a bottle of it, but I would recommend it and buy it for someone as a gift.   You can purchase the L...
