December's GlossyBox...

I received my December GlossyBox yesterday and I was so excited to receive it after seeing lots of hype about it! I had no idea what would be in my box as I had stayed away from all of the spoilers but I was hoping for a nail polish and a facial cleanser and I was lucky enough to receive both! This month the GlossyBox is red which I love! Very Christmassy!

So here is what I received in my box and what I thought of the products.

Cargo Cosmetics Classic Lip Gloss £10 Full Size

I wasn't overly excited about receiving this product as I don't tend to use lip glosses very much as I prefer lipsticks. I also thought that the size was a little on the small side. I received the Powder Pink variation and I have to say I was surprised. The colour was vivid, I find a lot of glosses too clear. The texture was lovely and as described not sticky at all! I would probably not repurchase this product simply because I don't tend to wear gloss.

Deborah Lippmann Razzle Dazzle Mini Nail Varnish with Stripper to Go Sachet £16 Full Size. £14 Pack of Six Removers

As a huge nail polish lover this was the product I was the most excited to use! I am loving glittery polishes right now and I was delighted to receive another one to add to my collection. I loved this polish, it did need two coats but it was very fast drying which I love! The polish looks great on and perfect for Christmas. I was also a fan of the stripper to go! It was unlike any nail polish remover I have ever used as it was a mini finger mit and leaves the finger tips smelling of lavender! I would purchase these products again, especially the polish as the range has so many beautiful colours to choose from.

FAB Face Cleanser Full Size £13

I loved the packaging of this product as I thought it looked so fun! Something which would attract me to the product if I was to see it in a store. It left my skin feeling clean and refreshed. The scent was very soapy, almost like a bar of soap, which didn't bother me too much but I would have preferred something that smelt a little nicer. I would purchase this product again.

Nouveau Lashes Noir Mascara Full Size £14.99

I was really surprised by this product and it was also a full sized sample too! I have very short stumpy lashes so mascara is an everyday beauty must for me and this mascara was great. It noticeably lengthened my lashes as well as gave them volume. It was also quick drying as promised. I would definitely repurchase this product.

Rituals Foaming Shower Gel

I was also really happy with this product and it was again a full sized product. Others have said they disliked the scent of this product but I personally really liked it. It smells very feminine and floral. A little really does go a long way so only a small amount needs to be used. I thought the texture was lovely too, and it left my skin feeling soft and smooth. The scent also lingered on my skin which is something a lot of shower gels don't seem to do. I will be repurchasing this product.

Novembers Glossy Box...

I know some of you have been on the Glossy Box band wagon for some time now but I have only just signed up and I am asking myself why I did not join earlier! I purchased my first box last week from the Clothes Show Live where Glossy Box were exhibiting a stall. They were holding a special offer where you get not one but two boxes for £10 so I snapped this offer up straight away as I had been thinking of trying Glossy Box for a while and I am so glad I have! It was exactly as I expected and beautifully packaged! And the boxes themselves are lovely, I'm now using my empty box to store all my make-up. I already can't wait to receive my next box!

I would recommend Glossy Box to any beauty lover! If you would like to sign up and would like 50% off your first box leave a comment on this post with your email address and I will reply to you with a special 50% off code. The code expires on 31/12/11 so get it before then!

So here is what I received in my box and what I thought of the products.

ARBONNE FC5 Cooling Foot Crème. RRP £19.00 Full Size

I really enjoyed using this product, it was non greasy and dried quickly after applying, my tired feet felt instantly refreshed and revived and after a couple of uses my feet felt noticeably softer. The only downside to this product was the scent which I didn't really like. Overall I would purchase this product again.

Dead Sea Spa Magik Dead Seal Bath Salts RRP £5.90 Full Size

I was a little disappointed with this product and it wasn't at all what I expected. First of all the fragrance of the product was very dull and natural smelling I would have preferred a stronger smelling product, and secondly I felt that the product didn't make much of a difference to my bath. I would not purchase this product again.

Illamasqua Freak Eau De Parfum RRP £59.00 Full Size

This fragrance was nice smelling and the packaging was beautiful however I found the fragrance a little overpowering and it just wasn't me. I would not purchase this product again.

MONU Skin Perfector RRP £16.25 Full Size

At first I  didn't think much of this product, however after using it I was quite surprised! It smells pleasant, and has a lovely texture. The product dried quickly and after just one use my skin felt much softer and smoother. After using for a few days my skin feels great and looks smoother. I would definitely purchase this product again.

Nail Rock Designer Nail Wraps RRP £6.65

I was so happy when I saw these in my box! I have used Nail Rock nail wraps in the past and I love them! They are easy to apply and look great on and give that professional finish! Perfect if you have short nails that wont grow like mine! I would definitely purchase this product.
