I recentley signed up to Glossybox, its somthing i have wanted to do for such a long time but i have never really got around to subscribing, i have seen so many positive Glossybox reviews and just thought right thats it im going to go for it and subscribe, so i did :)
Before i signed up to Glossybox i was aware that unfortunatley things like this are somtimes a little bit hit and miss and that your not going to always going to be 100% satisfied, this is the first box i have ever recieved and i was happy with the contents however i have seen better months on blogs but i am more than willing to stay subscribed for future months to see whats to come as i love to try out new products!! :) As you may already know this months box was a speacial one, it was designed by Londonbased up and coming illustrator Maggie Li. The theame of this box was Rising Stars.
Maghtabian Oil
100ml-£24.00
The thing i was most excited about trying this month was the Maghtabian Oil, it contains Argan oil which is brilliant for your hair, it is described as a product that is far beyond a hair serum, it is a mix between serum and conditioner and it is also a hair treatment.
I have been wanting to try somthing like this for such a long time as my hair seems to be looking really dull latley and it has been lacking shine. This product worked wonders for me and really made my hair look so shiny and healthy, it did not leave my hair looking greasy (as some serums i have found to do this) it left my hair feeling very soft and healthy, i would reccomend that you use a small amount and not to go too overboard with this as a little bit does go a long way :)! i love using this product and the smell is beautiful. I would definatley buy the full size of this product and would reccomend it to anybody who is looking for a hair serum that is a little bit more high end than drug store ones.
Vichy Idealia Day Care Cream
50ml £25
I have been trying this Vichy cream out for over a week now and i really have been enjoying using it, it makes my skin feel really smooth and it brightens my skin and gives me a slight glow. I have oily skin so i was quiet wary of this at first as it is quiet thick and i tend to just stick to lighter moistrisers that wont sit on top of my skin and leave it greasy. This product is one of them that is brilliant for any skin type, it soaks in to the skin really well and it is perfect under your makeup as it helps create a really smooth base. Im not sure if i would re purchase this product as the price is the only down side, im not sure if i would want to spend that much on a facial moistriser however i am going to keep using this until my sample size has gone and then i will decide whether it is worth it to purchase the full size.
Balance Me
£20-30ml
I have never really been one for using eye creams, i have not really ever found that they make much difference to my eyes and usually i just give up! This balance Me eye cream is designed to soothe the eyes and is designed to smooth away dark shadows and reduce the appearance of fine lines. I will admit i have not yet noticed that my dark circles have become less obvious but i am going to continue to use it as i dont feel that i have been using it long enough to really notice a differance, one thing i have noticed though is that it is really very soothing on my eyes and i love using it especially first thing in the morning when im feeling really tired, the smell if very lovley as well i really like it alot! Like the Vinchy cream, i want to carry on using my sample until i decide if it is worth it to purchase the full size.
Lady GaGa Fame
30ml £23.99 at Superdrug
I was slightly dissapointed that i recieved this sample in my box as it was the kind of thing i could have just picked up for free at a drugstore, so the fact that it was part of the list of products i had paid for seemed a little unfair, however i do love the scent and i do plan to purchase it in full size, it is very sweet and girly and not what i expected from Lady GaGa, i think the fact that is is a black fluid is really cool aswell and its definatley somthing i have never seen before.
Rodial 5 minitue Facial
50ml £35.00
Im really sad to say this but i did not enjoy using these products at all. I didnt find that they left my skin feeling any different and the next day i noticed that i had a few new break outs, i cant be 100% sure as to wether it was this product that broke me out, but i just would not purchase them however i have heard so many positive things about these so maybe it was just not suited to my skin type :)
(very sorry i was un able to provide pictures for the last two products as i had used them up before i knew i was going to do this review, silly me!! )
I hope you found this useful , what did you think to this months box? what was your fave product? was there any that you disliked?
