My 1st Glossybox

For months now I have been desperate to sign up for a monthly beauty box so I looked at all sorts of boxes, Birch Box, Love Me Beauty or Glossybox. In the end I went for GlossyBox as I had read a lot of great reviews saying they tended to go for the high end beauty products and at just £10 a month I thought this was a complete bargain. So last Tuesday I signed up!! 

After a week of excitement today was the day that the box arrived. After dashing home at lunchtime to see what treats I had received I tore the box open quicker than you can say Glossy box and this is what I got.

nailgirls 3-in-1 Base/Topcoat & Nail Strengthener £13.50 nailgirls.co.uk:- You know me I love nail polish so this was a great item to receive espeically as this morning I decided to give my nails a break for a bit to give them a bit of a breather. I'll be using this right away!

got2b Rise 'n Shine Soufflé £4.07 superdrug.com:- I've never tried a soufflé type texture hair product before and being a hair dresser I'm really interested to see how this works. 

Teeez Trend Cosmetics Beautful Flat Stiff Brush €19 nelly.com:- The booklet says this is a premium quality brush that is made with natural hair. The design on this is really cute and I'll be really interested to see how good this is as I have to admit I only ever use my Mac brushes but as they always say it's good to try something new every now and then!!

Roger&Gallet Fleur de Figuier Discovery Ritual Shower Cream £9.50, Body Lotion £13 and Eau Fraîche Fragrance £32 marksandspencer.com:- Now if I'm honest I'm really disappointed with this. These are two small sample sized body lotions and shower gels with a small perfume. The perfume smells alright, I'm not ecstatic about it. I also received a 20% off voucher for Roger & Gallet online, which I'm not sure I'll use if I'm really honest. 

So Susan Cosmetics Universal Blush £18 sosusan.com:- I've never heard of So Susan before but I was immediately really impressed with their packaging. The blush is a beautiful colour and I can't wait to try it.

Overall I have to say I wasn't blown away when I saw the box and then when I went online to see what others had thought I was a little disappointed to see others had got some really amazing products such as full sized perfume from Selfridges. I know that with all of these boxes not everyone gets the same but I guess I just expected as it was my first box it may have had a bit more of a wow factor. The other disappointment was that although I ordered this on the 1st July and received it on the 7th July I actually got the June box which was frustrating.

I'm going to give it another go and hopefully get the July box this month.
