Glossybox #2 - January 2012

This is the Limited Edition hot pink January Valentine Glossybox. The box is a really lovely colour and you get a cute sweet as well. Next month will be the first time I receive the regular Glossybox with their like pink coloured box.

Here is what I got.
1.    EYEKO Skinny Eyeliner in Emerald Green (Full Size)
I haven’t tried this out on my eye yet but I am expecting good things, because it was quite soft and pigmented when I swatched it on my hand. The beauty card, that comes with every glossybox says this eyeliner Provides “precise definition and intense colour with a long-lasting finish”.
Visit www.eyeko.com and enter GLOSSY in the comment box to get a free gift with any purchase. (Expires 01/03/2012)

2.    ORLY Nail Lacquer in Ruby (5.3ml Sample Size)
I have not tried this out yet, but the colour looks really nice and it is my first Orly polish. The beauty card says “Orly, the top Californian brand, offers an infinite range of colours”.

3.    WELEDA One Step Cleanser & Toner (10ml Sample Size)
I tried this once and you don’t get enough to see if it works, but it doesn’t really interest me, I am just using it to use it up! I also don’t like that you have to wash it off and the scent reminds of a children’s cough medicine, which I like by the way, very lemony! The beauty card says “Weleda One-Step Cleanser & Toner is a handy two-in-one pack ideal for travel”.

Get £5 and FREE P&P off your next order, when you spend £15 or more, by visiting www.weleda.co.uk and entering the code GLOSSY when you checkout. (Expires 01/03/2012)

4.    FAB (First Aid Beauty) Gentle Body Wash (56.7g Sample Size)
I have tried this and it doesn’t interest me at all! I also don’t like that it does not smell of anything, I buy body washes for their scent. I am just going to use this up!. The beauty card says “A moisturising, irritant-free everyday cleanser ideal for even the most sensitive skin”.

Visit www.boots.com to view the full range.

5.    MURAD Hybrids Skin Perfecting Primer – Dewy Finish (5ml Sample Size)
I haven’t used this yet but I will probably just use it as a basic primer and not really take much notice of the skin perfecting, as the sample is too small to do so, but we’ll see!. The beauty card says “Oil-free primer ignites a radiant glow, powered by light-enhancing minerals”.

Get 33% off your order when you enter the code GLOSSYPR at the checkout on www.murad.co.uk. (Expires 31/03/2012)

Glossybox #25 - February 2019

This is my third Glossybox since I re-subscribed last year. It is also the Valentine’s Day themed box. I would say that so far, this box seems to be the one most tailored to my usual interests. I received seven products in this box, technically six because two go hand in hand. HUDA BEAUTY Lip Contour in Venus This lip pencil formula is supposed to be waterproof and transfer-free. It should glide on effortlessly and give your lips an intense shot of colour. You can use it to contour or colour your lips or pair it with a lipstick. Venus is a warm beige nude shade. It glides onto your lips very easy, but it feels a little tacky when you fill your whole lips in with it. I’m not sure how often I would use this seeing as though I have never used lip liner. I prefer liquid lipsticks and I don’t feel the need to line my lips before applying it. | 1.20g - £16.00 | NAILS INC Nail Varnish in Status Ready This nail polish should be long lasting and super glossy. It is a deep che

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Jawbreaker Palette

I bought this palette back when it first launched (summer 2019) and I was interested in it so I could experiment more with bright colours. The colour selection definitely doesn’t disappoint and I was expecting it to be the same quality as the Blood Sugar Palette, if not slightly better! The packaging is quite a large rectangular shape and made out of metallic pink cardboard with colourful dots/dashes all over representing a jawbreaker pattern. The name of the palette is in a slightly raised font. It has a magnetic closing which you lift to reveal the twenty-four eyeshadow pans arranged on a white background. The other side is the same pattern as the front cover with a mirror. You can purchase it for £54.00 ($58.00) from JeffreeStarCosmetics.com and BeautyBay.com. You get twenty-four 1.50g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Shimmer (S) and Metallic (ME) finishes.

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shimmer
