This month's Glossybox was to be a Pop-art edition and if you saw my Instagram, you will have seen my excitement about the outer packaging! Inside the box was just amazing and it is fair to say that I absolutely love this box and it is one I will not be throwing away.
As usual there was one spoiler which everyone would get within their box and it is a 50ml Nuxe Masque Creme Fraiche, which is a full sized product worth £19.50. The masque is said to quench the thirst of the driest skin types to leave your face feeling smooth and moisturised] not to mention radiant.
Next in the box was a full size Ciate nail polish. I got the shade Ditch in heels' which is a mint green colour, not one I will be using sadly, but watch out for it in a giveaway.
Rimmel Matte BB cream is next in shade light and it has an SPF 15 which I like and I actually quite like the BB Cream, the colour is almost perfect for my skin tone, I just need to buff a little extra after applying and it gives a really nice feel to the skin, not to mention is great for covering my oily patches! This is an 8ml sample which is an alright size, you get to use it for a few days before deciding whether or not you want to purchase a full sized tube which costs £6.99 from Boots for 30ml.
So Susan is next, i'm not sure what it is about these products but I start off liking them and then within days come to dislike them. In my box was a flutter mascara in black and it has an RRP £14.99. Described as being an intense carbon-black mascara formulated with hyaluronic spheres to help you achieve the darkest, curviest lashes possible. The long brush with extra stiff bristles helps to achieve voluminous, multi-dimensional lashes in just one coat. Suitable for contact lens wearers. We'll see, I can't say I am over-excited about it, but I do love mascara and will give it a try.
Etre Belle comes next, a brand ive never heard of but a product that intrigues me because it is called a Liplift peel which is given the following description "Up to 54% more lip volume and smoothing wrinkles without injections. Pure hyaluronic microspheres smooth quickly and effectively deep wrinkles around the lips and restructure the lip volume. The lip contour is replenished and redefined". Well worth giving it a go and as a full sized product it is worth around £10
The final product is a perfume sample, which I am a fan of in general, especially when they come in actual cute bottles. From Yves Rocher this is called Quelques Notes d'Amour and it is very very floral, one of those perfumes that you only need the tiniest amount of before you over do it and give yourself a headache. Possibly not the scent for me, but more for my Mam who would love it, infact it is winging its way to her, so hopefully she does like it.

So there you have my box. I actually think this is one of the better ones that I have seen floating around and although I wouldn't use everything within in box, I like that I have some new products to play around with.
So what do you think to this box? Good or Bad?
Wow u got some amazing products in that box.. Am really interested in trying that Rimmel BB cream. Nice post
ReplyDeleteOh.. how I love reading unboxing posts! The box is so pretty! You should keep it. LOL

I love the box itself, what's with So Susan being in yet another box though? They're just overpriced, Chinese cosmetics!

I have such a love/hate relationship with beauty sub boxes but I think I would be happy with the Nuxe and Ciate. I think I love the actual box more though :)

This box was fantabulous. Contents wise - I had different from you but it's definitely the best all round selection in a while.
ReplyDeleteI loved this box too, it's always great to try out new products you haven't used yet, and the box itself looks so fab! :)

I love the colour of the nail polish! I've never used any of the products, but they look really good!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a pretty good box, I'd love to try the lip mask! The Ciaté polish is such a pretty shade too, shame you weren't keen.

Cute idea for a monthly subscription. You get them to your door and don't have to go out shopping for them!
ReplyDeleteOMG I love that packaging!!
ReplyDeleteI love the packaging, but know that I wouldn't use all the stuff!
ReplyDeleteI love such boxes, you got some great stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteOh that box is pretty cool! I've recently been introduced to BB cream and love it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice box! I wish the German Glossybox was as good.
ReplyDeleteThe box itself is fab. I have never understood the difference between bb and cc cream? Does one give heavier coverage?
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge fan of boxes but this one seems alright :)

I love the design on the box. I'm not really too keen on receiving these types of boxes to be honest but it looks like you have got some great products in there. I hope your Mum likes the perfume :-)
ReplyDeleteI think the box alone is great - and the whole thing would make a great gift.
ReplyDeleteGoing to be honest, I loved the box that came with this months glossybox but I wasn't keen on the products in my box at all, think I might drop this soon x
ReplyDeleteLoving this month's packaging the most I think
ReplyDeleteI was toying with the idea of ordering this box as I loved the look of the actual box and the contents, and then it sold out! That doesn't happen very, so I missed out :(
ReplyDeleteBecky @ The Little Blog of Beauty
The box itself is beautiful and Ciate nail polish has a fab shade too.
ReplyDeleteI would like to try it.
The box itself looks so pretty :) and there seems to have nice selection of products! xo's
