1st Birthday GlossyBox

I think this is the first time I've actually blogged about my GlossyBox on the actual day I received it, I'm just so on the ball! So this month's theme was for their 1st birthday which made me pretty excited when I received the package as I thought this one's got to be the best one right?

However, I feel kinda slightly disappointed by this box, not because I don't like what I've received, but I don't feel like I've got £12.95 worth of products in there. It's saving grace was the cute little compact mirror they included and the fab wrapping paper, so I'm not upset with my box but I think I had pretty high expectations for this one. I shall, however, let you decide what you think about the box!

{Pretty in Pink}

{How cute is the ribbon and wrapping paper?}

{My little stash!}

{Apivita Express Beauty Masks - these are basically posh face masks, which I never do but my friend swears by them so may have to try them out next time I'm with her! They're a good size and would probably do 3-4 faces from one sachet}

{Lolita Lempicka Perfume - two little testers of perfumes, one is quite spicy and very different from my usual picks but I quite like them! I love these little testers as I keep them in my make up bag and useful for a top up}

{Eldora False Eyelashes - now I'm awful at applying eyelashes so I never wear them but I had hoped for eyelashes in my box to force me to try them again, however NOT with diamantes on! They're so not me! I have discovered that they're easy to take off so I shall be tweezering them off very soon!}

{Noble Isle Shower Gel - this is my third shower gel from my boxes and I'm sort of bored of them. However, it smells delicious and the bottle is really pretty so I think it will be my holiday shower gel as it smells very fresh}

{Osmo Berber Oil Hair Treatment - this is probably the most interesting product as I've just bought a hair oil for the summer and this looks really good, an intense conditioner for your hair, I desperately need it in this sun!}

{GlossyBox mirror and Birthday balloon - cute idea and they've asked their box recipients to blow up the balloon and send a picture of them with the balloon which is a really sweet idea I think, looking forward to seeing the pics all over Twitter!}

What do you think? I do really like everything in my box and will use it all so overall I'm happy, the box is so pretty with the wrapping paper too. It's always a good little pressie to receive from yourself!

I think the hair oil will be the most useful item but I will update you if anything in any of my GlossyBoxes are specifically outstanding items that have made their way into my routines!

GlossyBox Natural Beauty

My GlossyBox came on Friday and I got so excited when I saw the postman at the door, it's been so long since I received my Harrods edition! It's such a good present to give to yourself to have a little perk me up every month!

I am SO pleased with my box again, it was eco themed so everything is green and organic, I guess this just means I can feel better about myself!

The box was a gorgeous bio-degradable box, I've actually used it to hold all the pressies I've bought for my best friend's 21st, it's so pretty! So here's the goodies:

{My lovely box!}

{Can you see what I mean about the bio-degradable look?}

{Natural Beauty Box}

{List of my goodies with offers on all full size products}

{Pastel ribbon}

{Inika black eyeliner, it's full size and feels so nice!}

{This will be a very useful addition to my make-up bag}

{Caudalie Thirst-Quenching Serum - it's a concentrated moisturiser to go with your normal moisturiser, I desperately needed it after running out of my moisturiser from the last box. I've also heard that Caudalie is a really lovely company too, it feels so nice on my skin and feels like it would be a good base for my make-up}

{Figs and Rouge lip balm, packaging looks lovely and it smells delicious, what girl doesn't need lip balm in their handbag? It's one of those soft lip balms so it glides onto your lips!}

{Kai Perfume Oil, now this is TINY but apparently it is a perfume that smells different on everyone, it smells very nice but it is very small!}

{Ayuuri Coconut Body Wash, this is a huge full size body wash and it smells delicious, I've almost run out of my Molton Brown shower gel from the last box despite careful and small use so this was very much needed!}

Everything I received in this box I needed and would use a lot, I know some people haven't been as lucky as me, obviously it is a Russian Roulette but I love to try new things and this sample box scheme is just perfect for me!

Next month is their 1 year anniversary box and I think it should be a pretty good one so if any of you readers out there are tempted to get the next one then use this link! http://www.glossybox.co.uk/invitation/NjQ2MzY=?utm_source=Customers&utm_medium=link&utm_term=NjQ2MzY=&utm_campaign=Refer-a-friend/
