Last Ever Glossybox!

Don't panic it's not the last ever Glossybox being made but I have cancelled my subscription for reason like 'I need to save'! If you would like to ask me any questions about Glossybox or any advice let me know in the comments and I will get back to you as soon as possible! Anyway here it is the August 'International' Glossybox!

1- This product is from Germany and it's the 'Alessandro' Pro White nail varnish, it costs £7.85. It's described as a 'nail polish with anti-yellowing formula for radiant white and gleaming nails.' I haven't tried this product yet but if your interested take a look here to find out more! 
2- This product is from Japan and it's the 'DHC' Deep Cleansing Oil, it costs £18.50. It's to be used on the face to get rid of makeup and other impurities and it's described to be 'better than any other make-up remover you've ever tried.' 
3- The 'All For Eve For The Eve Appeal' Eve's balm costs £4.95. It doesn't say where it's from but it does say that it is a balm that it's 'an easily absorbed recovery balm' for dry skin. I have tried this product and it feels really nice on the lips and it doesn't have much of a sent. To visit the website click here.
4- This is a Spanish 'eyeshadow palette' by 'Vera Valenti'. It's called the L'ombre a Paupiere Margarita and costs £3.85. It includes ten different colours with an applicator and a tiny mirror (which had fallen out by the time I had received it and is useless anyway). I have quickly swatched the eye shadow and it's pigmented but not the colours I would wear.
5-This product is from the UK and I love the packaging it's cute but mature and is beautiful! It's the 'Lipcote', it's the described as ' The original Lipstick sealer and secret of long lasting, feather fade and water resistant lipstick'. This product looks and sounds great I haven't tried it yet if you want to find out more information just click here!
6- Theres not normally a sixth product but it's by Glossybox, it costs £9.50 for the Glossybox Lipstick in Glossy Pink. I have tried this once and it's creamy and moisturizing but I have made my complete decision on the product yet as I've only used it once! 

Please let me know if you would like me to review any of these products in the comments below! If you would like to check out the last product and more information about Glossybox and the subscription deals then please click here to find out more! 

Thanks for reading!

July Glossybox!★

Hello girlies I've set this post out a bit different from past Glossybox posts but I hope you like it! Tweet, comment or/& follow would be very much appreciated, enjoy!


1- This is the Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist and a full size bottle will cost £9.35. It's described to 'Give thirsty hair and skin the moisure they crave. Helps you feel refreshed all day long'. I have used this once with wet hair and it didn't really do anything but I'm undecided on whether I like this product or not yet as it's to soon to say!

2- A full sized Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics Lip Frosting costs £10.00. The lip frosting is descirbed as ' A multifunctional cream gloss. Use on lips for a tint of colour, or cheeks for a luminous glow.' 

3- This is a small sample size of the Monu Night Renewal Complex and at full size will cost you £36.95. It's 'A rich complex of actives to help smooth and firm the skin whilst you sleep.'

4- Nuxe's Huile Prodigieuse cost's £17.50 for a fullsize bottle. The description says that you should 'Apply this dry oil to your face, body and hair all year round, in summer and winter'. I don't think the description tells you much about the product just what to do with it, so it's not very helpful.

5-A full size bottle of Bex London's Londoner Urban Fragrance cost's £81.00. The description says, 'Four high concentration, modern fragrances, inspired by the unique character and idiosynerasies of London'. It's not clear what one of the four fragrances I received and the scent is strong and not something I'd often go for unfortunately.

6- In this months Glossybox a bonus product came in the box and it was an Elizebeth Arden's Visible Difference Skin Balancing line. 'It works to keep skin looking revitalized and healthy.' 
This months Glossybox was probably the worse box I have recieved just because the products are not what I would normally purchase apart from the lip frosting, but it doesn't matter as the August box will be my last due to need of saving! If your wondering why I don't tell you what I think of the products much it's because I like to show you the products from Glossybox without opening them, but if you wish to see a review on any of the products shown, feel free to tweet or comment below! Thanks for readung, Bye!

Happy 1st Birthday GlossyBox❤!

Hello darlings, so as you can see from the title, my monthly GlossyBox has arrived for May and since we're celebrating I got a few extra things in this lovely box! Shall we get started? YES


Okay so these are all the normal products you would get in the average GlossyBox, see anything you fancy?

So the first testers I got were these perfumes they are by Lolita Lempicka, the blue tester is called Eau de Parfum and for full size would be £65 and the pink one is called Si Lolita and at full price would be £63. The description says, 'Discover Lolita Lempicka's feminine world where Parisian chic meets fantasy fairly tale to create the perfect fragrance' and first impressions are very good!

 Next is the Summer Rising Bath & Shower Gel from Noble Isle and I quite like the smell of this product, it doesn't tell you how much it costs for some reason but the description says 'An immaculate fragrance evoking the beginnings of summer. Noble Isle is a new British bath & body brand inspired by the natural and cultural riches of the British Isles' but overall I can't wait to smother myself in this!


Next are these two facemasks from Apivita and they are Express Beauty Masks and I am so excited about these as soon as my lush facemask is gone I'm am going to use these pretty honey facemasks! 'The Apivita express beauty masks exclude synthetic ingredients and replaces water with green tea infusion to enhance the antioxidant action.' and these are full size and would cost £3.50!


Now this product I'm not fond of, I don't wear fake eyelashes any way and if I did I wouldn't pick these but maybe for a fancy dress party they may come in handy! There full size and would cost £3.90. They're by Eldora and they describe them as 'beautiful, quality and value-priced lashes for any occasion'. 


Next is a product I don't think I need at the moment but could be handy in the future, it's a Berber Oil Hair Treatment by Osmo. Full size price it would be £19.99 and the description says it's 'A luxurious revolutionary treatment for all hair types, providing transformational results.'


Okay so because it was GlossyBox's birthday they have given us a little compact mirror which is really cute! I love it it has a magnified side as well and will defiantly get used LOTS!

  We also got this cute balloon❤!

So that's all from me today, don't forget to follow, tweet and check out my tumblr! See you soon!

GlossyBox April Edition★

Hello dolls! Sorry it's been so long but don't worry my GlossyBox arrived on Friday so as usual here are the pictures to follow! I hope you enjoy don't forget to follow me on tumblr and twitter! 



April's GlossyBox included these five wonderful products! Including TWO full sized products.


The first of the five products was a Caudalie Vinosource SOS Thirst-Quenching Serum!
The full 30ml product would be £29.00, the description says 'This newly-launched ultra-concentrated serum is extremely natural and plant-based, ensuring your skin never lacks moisture. The deluxe size is also exclusive to GlossyBox'. I haven't tried this yet but if you would like to no how it goes leave it in a the comments!

 Next is by Inika  Cosmetics and it's a Certified Organic Eyeliner. This is a full sized product which would be £11.75 per Liner. A swatch looks like this ...


It's number 07 and called Graphite the description says ' A rich and creamy consistency unparalleled in the world of natural liners.' I've used it once and I quite like it!


ahhh this gorgeous smelly Natural Body Wash by Ayuuri smells soooooo good! My scent is Coconut as you can see but others but others were including 'Neem' and two others. This is the other full sized product which would cost £4.95. The description says ' The Ayuuri Natural skincare range is based on fruit, plant and flower extracts that have long been used in Indian to enhance skin's natural beauty' I can't wait to try this!


This Kai perfume Oil is the only product in this months GlossyBox I'm not to sure on. It's not to do with the size or anything after all this is a subscription to test products but the smell is just not me at all and I can't describe it either maybe some sort of herb that you'd find in your nan's garden that's what it reminds me of! Anyway this would cost £41.00 for a full sized bottle, I would defiantly not pay that for this! The description says ' Our intoxicating signature perfume oil fragranced with Kai's light, intoxicating blend of gardenia wrapped in white exotics .'


Last but not least is this Lip Balm by Figs & Rouge it says ' 100% Pure, 100% Natural & 100% Organic Multipurpose balm. Excellent for soothing & Naturally Hydrating dry Lips & Skin' The full sized product would be £3.29. Now the scent isn't anything amazing to be honest but I just put it on to test and the texture is nothing to your normal lip balm is sort of soft, wet slightly foamy texture but it feels AMAZING on your lips!


So if you hadn't noticed already this isn't a normal GlossyBox as you can tell from the packaging! Have you guessed what's so special yet.... It's all organic! The box is all neutral colours and the ribbon is more string like, I love this box it was worth the money! Let me know what you think in the comments or if you got any different products in your GlossyBox this month than mine!

Harrods Special Edition GlossyBox♥

Hello ladies,
So the March GlossyBox came a few days ago and if I'm being honest I didn't think it was that amazing! But I still liked a few of the products so I think I'm going to keep on subscribing at the moment! Follow my twitter at - @hannahxcross and of course please follow, comment and all that jazz!


The products I recieved this month are in the picture below,



        

-left to right-
Number 1 is a 'Ultra shiny hydrating lipgloss' by Lancome. They're called juicytubes and mine is in the shade 'toffee R 'N' B #93! I Don't really wear lipglosses but this a caramelly orange colour with dots of glitter!

Number 2 is Clarins extra firming body cream. I've used this an so far so good, the description says ' A formula rich in regenerating and firming plant extracts which restore the skin's youthful density and elasticity.

Number 3 is 'A luxurious scent from the House of Versace. Vanitas is a rich and voluptuous fragrance with notes of tiare flower, lime and freesia' (Let me know if you have a clue what a tiare flower is and freesia???). this fragrance is called Vanitas Versace Eau De Parfum by Versace. I love this scent and you should defiantly check it out if you get the chance!

Number 4 is a product I have not yet tried but the description thinks that it's a 'deeply moisturising, skin softening, naturally rejuvenating body butter in the mouth watering blood orange and white pepper'. The product is by Bliss and called Blood Orange and White pepper body butter!

Number 5 is 'an intensive, firming moisturizer that helps to reduce the appearance of sagging skin' by Revive and it's called Intensite creme lustre SPF30. However you enter your age in on the GlossyBox website when you subscribe so I don't quite understand why I got this but I did give it to my mum as she liked the look of it! 

Well that's my GlossyBox for March tell me what you thought of mine or your own GlossyBox this month! This month GlossyBox didn't put on the prices of the full sized products strangely! 
Hopefully you enjoyed this and don't forget to FOLLLOW!

February Glossy Box (First Glossybox)

Sorry it's really late guys! 


However I still thought I'd tell you what I received in my first ever glossy box (for £10 + P+P)! Enjoy!



left to right
1. Como Shambhala - Invigorate Shower Gel - A revitalising blend of essential oils that puts you in a perfectly uplifted mood. (Full size £20.00/300ml)
2. Dr Bronner - Lavender Hand Sanitiser - A lavender scented hand sanitiser in a handy spray size to keep in your handbag. (Full size £3.99/59ml)
3. BM Beauty - Pure mineral Eyeshadow - Award winning pure mineral eyeshadow. Cruelty free and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. (Full size £7.00/2g)
4. Awapuhi by Paul Mitchell - Wild Ginger Treatment Oil - Smooth and seal parched hair with natural oils and the hydrating Awapuhi extract. Absorbs easily imparting a soft, silky texture and rich shine effect, (Full size £25.95/100ml)
5. Becca - Beach Tint Watermelon - This award-winning lip and cheek stain blends beautifully to a non-drying, water resistant finish. (Full size £20.00/7ml)

My favourite of all the items would defiantly have to be the Becca lip and cheek stain, however I don't use it for my cheeks as it looks to bright for me. I love this product because it doesn't make your lips feel dry and it smells beautiful, but I don't think it's worth £20.00 therefore I would be pushed to repurchase this!
