Birchbox #2 - July 2014

This is my second ever Birchbox (arrived yesterday) and I was interested to see if it beat last month’s box. I got another free lifestyle extra, so I am assuming you get one every month! Here is what I received this month:-

Models Own Nail Polish in Sparkler

| £5 – ModelsOwnIt.com |

This is my first ever Models Own nail polish and it is from the Fireworks collection. It looks like a very pretty top coat, but I’m not sure if I would actually use it. Only time will tell!

Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream

| £20 (15ml) – BalanceMe.co.uk |

I have owned a lip balm from this brand before and this eye cream does sound interesting. I will give it a go because I am always on the lookout for a new/different eye cream.

LAQA & CO Lip Lube in Menatour

| £14.95 (full size) – LAQAandCO.co.uk |

I have never heard of this brand before and this product looks very interesting. It is a cute mini size and the colour is a bright purple. It is not something I would typically wear, but I will give it a whirl!

Benefit The Porefessional

| £24.50 (22ml) – BenefitCosmetics.co.uk |

I already have this in a full size and smaller sample size, so I will never run out! I haven’t actually got around to trying it yet, but I LOVE Benefit products.

Whish Three Wishes Body Butter™ in Lavender

| £14.50 (150ml) – WhishBody.com |

This brand is new to me too and I’ve said before, I really dislike body butters! This one smells nice, but I will just not use it.

Filosofille 4 Sided Nail Buffer

| Free Gift |

This is the lifestyle extra for this box and it is a sweet addition. I will probably not use it, so I have given it to my sister.

The selection I received this month is kind of boring, June’s box was definitely much better! I will still get use out of the items, but they are not as exciting as the ones from the last box. I am staying subscribed for now though because I saw a teaser for the August box and it looks promising for now!

What are your thoughts on this box?

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...

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...

Katie Price 'Stunning' Perfume VS JoJo Siwa 'Be You' Perfume - Are they the same?

I was browsing on AllBeauty.com and looking at celebrity fragrances and I saw that one was listed for JoJo Siwa. I had heard of JoJo before, but I don’t really know anything about her. I clicked on it out of interest and when I first saw the image of the perfume, I thought maybe the wrong photograph had been uploaded until I clicked on it and saw the description of the perfume. When I first saw the photograph, before I clicked on it to read the description, I instantly thought, that’s Stunning by Katie Price! I looked into it a bit more and compared it to Stunning. The JoJo Siwa “version” is called Be You. Photo Source: Perfume.com Stunning by Katie Price · Released in 2007 (12 years ago). · Contains the notes; Mandarin Orange, Jasmine & Patchouli. · Classed as a floral scent. · ...
