December Glossybox

I have been subscribed to Glossybox since September and this has to be my favourite box! The festive red box is a nice change from the usual dusty pink colour and makes it feel all the more Christmassy!


1. Rituals foaming Shower Gel -  This is a full size product and it smells amazing! I received the Indian rose and sweet almond oil version and I am very excited to try it! I love the foaming aspect of it as it seems so much more luxurious than a usual shower gel.


2. Cargo Cosmetics Lip Gloss - I received the shade 'Morocco' which is a nude plum colour. The colour is very nice and wearable and I know will get good use out of this product.


3. Deborah Lippmann Mini Nail Varnish in 'Razzle Dazzle' - I absolutely LOVE this product! It is so perfect for Christmas parties and is very pigmented so you get a beautiful even colour. They have also added a 'Stripper to Go' sachet which will be very useful for trying to take off this glitter nail polish as they are usually very difficult to remove!


4. Blink and Go Eyeshadow and Blush Palette -  This is such a cute product with its different sections for blush and eye colours. I received the 'bright' palette and some shades I know that I will never wear as they are just too 'out there'! The blush colours are very wearable and I am excited to try these out.


5. Bionova Eye Wrinkle Treatment -  This is a 4ml sample pot and it was a winner in the 2010 beauty survey from the 'Mirror Celebs on Sunday Anti-Ageing Eye Creams'. I know that prevention is better than cure and all that jazz, but I really wanted to try the MeMeMe Seventh Heaven skin primer!

Overall, this really is an amazing Glossybox, however I am disappointed not to have received either of the two mascara's or the skin primer. I am still waiting on a second Glossybox though so fingers crossed these items come in that one! 

Feel Unique December Box

This is my first ever Feel Unique box and I have to say, I am not overly impresed. Although there are nice items in the box, there is nothing that I'm really excited to use and will be probably be putting much of it up for swaps. I received:

1. Living Nature Samples - three 2ml samples of cleanser, toner and day cream. These samples feel just too small to truly judge the product's effectiveness, although it is nice to try a three products from the same range.


2. Annick Goutal Mandragore Eau De Toilette - This is a great sample size (25ml) and will be really handy for popping in my handbag. However the scent is just something I would never wear. It seems very warm and musky and I am more in to light floral fragrances.


3. Figs and Rouge Sweet Geranium Balm - I love things like these! It is a multi- purpose balm that you can use on dry skin or chapped lips to instantly soothe and protect. This product will be very helpful at this time of the year so I think I will get some use out of this!


4. Nails inc Nail Polish in 'Oxford Circus' - This is such a pretty colour! A baby pink polish with a slight hint of lilac through it. It is a 4ml sample bottle and will allow you to test the colour before making a full purchase. I have found Nails Inc varnishes to go on very smooth and they are highly pigmented so this was a nice treat.


5. Bed Head Candy Fixations Sugar Dust - This is a similar product to the 'Schwarzkopf Professional OSIS+ Dust It' that was in the November Feel Unique box. I received this product in a swap and have only used it once due to it feeling too sticky and leaving my hair limp. I am quite disappointed that the same sort of product has been in two constitutive boxes. There is a range of hair products to try and I would have liked to receive something new and exciting. I shall however, try this Bed Head dust to see if it outshines the Osis dust. 

6. Clarisonic Gentle Hydro Cleanser - This product has had rave reviews and has been featured in Harper Bazaar's beauty hot 100. It promises to remove 6x more make up than manual cleansing and aims to leave your skin smoother and super soft so I can't wait to see if it lives up to its promises! They have provided a 30ml sample which is a decent size for sampling new skincare. This product was the star of the box for me.

Overall, I think this was an average beauty box as I would have loved to receive a make up product, especially with it coming up to Christmas time. However, there is a nice range of products and mainly all of good sizes. 

Swap Photos

These are some photo's I have taken to show you some items I have for swaps. 

1. Stila Illuminating Tinted Moisturiser in Shade 02

2. MAC Tartan Tale Make up bag

3.Five Leopard Print Make-up Brushes from Fearne Cotton's range. This is new and unopened so would make an ideal present.

4. Motel dress size Medium (around 10-12) Worn twice, has adjustable straps.

5.Topshop high-waisted style dress size 8, although I am size 10/12 and it fits well. Black with blue checked tartan style.

5. Medium sized make up bag by Catseye. New with tags - would make a cute present!
