So January has been and gone and February, the month of love has arrived and the first beauty box through the door is the rather splendidly designed Glossybox, which leaves you in no doubt as to its theme.
The box has been created around the theme of love rather than specifically Valentines and it is about celebrating the ones you love, be that your squad, tribe, crew or whatever you choose to refer to them as. They are the ones who have your back, keep your secrets and of course come to your rescue when you need them.
Inside the box, there are five products and the one which jumps right out is a perfume called L'Eau de Rose. Jeanne Arthes has spent 35 years working closely with master perfumers from Grasse, the centre of the perfume world and it is there that Jeanne has created many perfumes. L'Eau de Rose is described as being a wonderful modern reinvention, combining the classic scent with dreamy elegant and crisp notes.
This perfume is undeniably rose scented there is sadly no further information on any of the other notes so I am unable to say anything else about how it should settle. However, if you are a fan of floral scents and like the scent of Roses, then this is a nice scent and whilst it isn't the longest lasting perfume I own, it does smell of actual roses and isn't a synthetic scent.

Next, in the box, we have Ultimate Blends Honey Treasures Strength Restorer Balm! This hair mask is said to harness the hydrating properties of the beehive with Honey, Royal Jelly and Propolis to leave the hair feeling nourished and glossy.
To be used after washing your hair, you squeeze out the excess water and smooth generous amounts over mid-lengths and ends. Leave on for between 1-5 minutes depending on your needs and then rinse.

The Ciate Paint Pot in shade Iced Frappe follows and this is described as being the perfect nude, or nude coffee delight at the very least and the kind of shade that everyone should have in their stash.
The hue is said to flatter any skin tone and the coffee undertones beautifully warm and uplift your skin. It has been a while now since I have used a non-gel nail polish so this one will get an outing during the summer months, right now I am still into my dark berry shades.

MeMeMe Beat the Blues liquid highlighter in shade Oyster Gold. This beauty is said to boost the radiance of a wintery complexion and is ideal for creating a youthful dewy finish thanks to its light reflecting pigments.
You can use it on the brow and cheekbones to highlight or mix with your foundation for an all-over radiant look.

The final item from the box is the Noir Eternee Youth Potion Face Scrub and using mineral-rich volcanic paste, this mask cleanses and purifies. Said to be enriched with anti-ageing ingredients, it plumps and smooths the skin. On application, the once pink paste turns a deep shade of grey and gets to work removing impurities and dead skin cells. It contains no nasties, is 90% natural and Vegan.
I have used this already from the box because I was curious about the colour change and what I do like is how it is not at all abrasive, but you can feel the past working to remove all the dead and dry skin.

So that was the February Glossybox and I don't think as a box it was too bad, all of the products included at ones that I have either used or will use and I absolutely love the face scrub.
