Hello!
So although the delivery of the first 2020 Glossybox was a bit disappointing...the box definitely wasn't!

If you sign up this month they have unfortunately SO
LD OUT of this box but they are doing a Mystery Glossybox use the code NEWYOU to get it for just £7,
I normally receive my Glossybox within the first week of the month but there was an issue with the delivery for some people this month, but as usual Glossybox were quick to let me know that there was an issue and when it would be arriving.
Januarys box was themed "Sleep and Refresh". I was really happy with this box it had some lovely products in which I will most definitely get some use out of!
1 | BYBI Strawberry Booster | RRP £12
This was the product I was most looking forward to. I love a serum and this one sounded and looked lovely! It is used to hydrate your skin - which in this horrid UK weather my skin is in need of! For some reason I thought it would smell like strawberry or have a sweet scent, which it doesn't - it has no scent at all. It does however make my skin feel super soft and look radiant. I look forward to continuing to use this and let you know what I think of it.
2 | Basic Beauty | Tweezers | RRP £15.50
Not much to say about this product! I can always do with a new set of tweezers, I don't know what happens to mine they disappear! I currently have a set in my dressing gown pocket, make up bag and bedside drawer but you can never have too many - haha!
These are a cute baby pink colour and have the slanted tip which are great for getting those fine little pesky hairs!
3 | ModelCo Clear Brow Gel | RRP £14
I was glad to see this in the box as I have just ran out of my Browcote eyebrow Gel. I use clear brow gel everyday to set my brows into place. I don't think you can really go wrong with a clear brow gel so I am sure I will be using this from now on to replace the old one!
4 | BeautyPro | CBD Oil Infused Mask | £5.95
There is nothing I love more than a good sheet mask. This one looked interesting, there are so many beauty products now that are infused with CBD Oil. I done this mask last night and was quite amazed with how good my skin looked after doing it, I have red cheeks which nothing really seems to fix but my redness was considerably calmer after doing this mask, my skin also felt lovely and soft. It had quite a herbally scent to it which I wasn't particularly keen on but it was bearable, and I'd definitely do it again considering the results. It has made me want to go and get one of the CBD serums to see if they do the same!
5 | Kueshi Double effect Make up remover | RRP unknown
This one was a bit random, when i was reading the card that you receive telling you about all the products I noticed this wasn't on there, in fact it was a completely different product, but then I received an email explaining the mix-up. I am actually glad I received this instead of the product on the card as one of my new years resolutions is to stop using face wipes and go back to the whole cleanse, tone, moisturise routine. I used to always do this routine, then when I had children and had less time I got stuck in the routine of grabbing a face wipe and taking m make-up off that way! Now I am starting to age :( I have started to take better care of my skin! So this product will be great to try. It's also one of those products that separate into two colours which my inner-child finds highly satisfying!
6 | NAKD Bar | Salted Caramel
This is not for me Haha! I am all for trying healthy alternatives...but this is not my cup-of-tea! I tried palming it off to my daughter but she looked at me in disgust! I will stick to my Graze flapjack - they are delicious!
Good Evening!
I arrived home from work to a perfect little delivery - My Halloween Glossybox! I have been getting subscription boxes on and off for about 9 years now. I originally used to get Jolie Boxes which are now known as Birchbox. My current favourite is Glossybox - I feel like their variety of products are the best! I don't get these every month I cancel the subscription every month and only resubscribe once I have seen the sneak peek and if I think its worth it i'll order it. I think this is the best way of doing it because can also get extra promo codes each month if you resubscribe (like this month I got £3 off).
So without further a do.... here is the Halloween box!
First things first...the box is amazing! As much as I love their standard baby pink box, it's nice to have the odd special box!
1 | STYLONDON | Velvet Touch Palette | RRP £15
The colours in this palette are beautiful, similar to those in the Naked Heat Palette. I love orange shades on me as they really bring out the blue in my eyes, so I can see me getting a lot of use out of this. Also this is a full-size product so this alone is worth more than the the Glossybox monthly subscription price!
"This luscious eyeshadow palette boasts 9 highly-pigmented hues in a range of blazing reds and oranges. Sweep a single shade onto your lid for a sizzling pop of colour, or layer different hues to create an enticing and eye catching finish."
2 | Lord & Berry | Lipstick Crayon - Devil Red | RRP £15
I have tried many Lord & Berry products over the years mainly from Glossyboxes. Their lip crayons have a really good colour payoff and last really well on the lips. This is going to be perfect not only for Halloween but also Christmas!
"Finish off your sassy, devil-may-care look with this bold red lipstick crayon. Its exclusive Devil red hue is the ultimate fiery shade. Plus, it is formulated with hydrating vitamin E that glides effortlessly onto your lips and creates a smooth matte finish that doesn't dry out your pout. Simply line your lips using the thin tip, before filling them in"
3 | Bubble T Cosmetics | Devils Foaming Bath Powder | RRP £4.99
This is a different product I have never seen or heard of a bath powder! I like getting little items like this that you wouldn't necessarily ever buy yourself but it's a nice treat.
"This devilishly-good foaming bath powder is the perfect way to relax and recharge at the end of a long autumnal day. As you fill your bath, simply add a splash of foaming powder to your tub. Then when bubbles start to appear. slip into the warm water and allow the fruity scent to refresh your body and mind"
4 | MCO BEAUTY | Eye Define Crayon Liner | RRP £15
I feel like as much as this is a great staple item, I have about 4 different liners to try out at the moment! I have only ever used one product from this brand before and I wasnt that impressed so I will be interested to see what this is like. Also extra bonus points for the baby pink packaging...love! Haha
"Achieve the ultimate dramatic eye look with this newly-launched creamy eyeliner crayon. Boasting a highly pigmented, rich and velvety formula, it allows you to effortlessly create precise, intense and sweeping lines. You can also blend it along your lash line for a striking, smokey effect"
5 | QUE BELLA BEAUTY | Plumping Peel off Mask | RRP £2.49
I love skin products and who doesn't love a face mask! I also adore peel off masks rather than wash off masks, they are so much easier and less messy. It claims that it is going to plump my skin...I really hope this is true!
"You don't need to sell your soul to achieve eternal youth - you just need this luxurious peel off mask! Enriched with Hyaluronic acid salts and organic rose water, it helps to moisturise, brighten and plump your skin, allow it to work its devilish tricks for 20 mins, then gently peel it off to reveal a more youthful and toned complexion"
6 | Whittard Of Chelsea | Sticky Toffee Pudding White Hot Chocolate | £2
I am not gonna lie, I will probably give this to my other half as I am not a massive hot chocolate fan but this is a super cute extra and I am loving the design on the packaging!
So over all... I LOVE this box, I am glad I got the Devil box not the Angel box as I think these colours are much easier to pull off! The items in the box total....£54.48! So Considering the box is only £10 a month plus P&P I think that's a massive bargain!
