Glossybox Angel or Devil? Beauty Box Review

This October, Glossybox is embracing both our angelic and devilish sides with two special-design boxes to kick start Halloween! Subscribers will either receive an ‘Angel’ box filled with heavenly products that will make you look and feel positively divine or a ‘Devil’ box which includes devilishly-good makeup, skincare and body care that will get you fired up for the day. They’ve also included another chocolatey treat!

Obviously, the lovely people over at Glossybox know me really well because I got the Angel Box, which naturally I am the purest of the pure.  Firstly, can we just talk about how stunning the box designs are, I love the theme of this box and both designs are just stunning.

Inside the Angel box, there are 5 offerings and a treat and there is a mixture of makeup and skincare and the first item I pulled out of the box comes from Stylondon with their Angel Velvet Touch Eyeshadow Palette (£15), a palette that has a name very much in keeping with the theme of the box,  Made up of 9 shades, the palette is a mixture of pinks - be they sweet or soft and at least three of the shades are shimmery and offer a matte or sheen finish.

Formulated without talc these mineral-based eyeshadows have added vitamin E and are both vegan and cruelty-free too. 

The second item in the box comes from Lord & Berry and it is the Maximatte Lipstick Crayon in the shade Angel Pink. Described as being a soft pink, this lip crayon gives a delicate colour payoff.  Formulated with hydrating Vitamin E, the crayon glides across the lips without scratching or dragging and it creates a smooth matte finish.

This isn't usually a colour I would opt for because it is too light a shade for me to wear, I prefer the darker pinks, but it does work really well as a base shade.  

The third item in the box comes from Bubble T Cosmetics and it is called the Angel Dust Foaming Bath Powder. Described as being a heavenly treat and if you love bubbles then this is a product to tick those boxes.

As you fill the bathtub with water, simply sprinkle the powder into that running water and watch as the bubbles begin to appear!  I have used the powder before from Bubble T and I love how many bubbles it creates from using such a small amount and of course it does smell divine.

The fourth product in the box comes from MCoBeauty with the Eye Define Crayon Liner in Black. This crayon offers a semi-matte waterproof formula which is perfect to use on the waterline and once it sets, the formula will not smear, budge or flake.

The eyeliner when applied glides on smoothly without pulling or tugging at the skin and it does so without smudging.  Everyone needs a black eyeliner within their stash and this one is pretty impressive.

The final item within the box is an Illuminating Holographic Peel-off Mask from Que Bella. Designed to leave your skin feeling refreshed with brighter, dewy-looking skin.

The mask is enriched with botanicals such as violet extract and jasmine extract and they work together to help to remove dead skin cells and exfoliate, making dull skin look and feel revived!

This is a brilliant box which is in keeping with the theme and if all of this wasn't enough the final treat is a sachet of Luxury White Hot Chocolate from Whittard and it is described as being a buttery sweet masterpiece which is guaranteed to put an angelic smile on your face.  
Glossybox Angel or Devil? Beauty Box Review
I am a huge fan of Hot Chocolate and I am saving this treat for a really cold day when I can hide under my blanket and shut the world out. As always you can subscribe to Glossybox right here and if you use the code BQUEEN20 you can get yourself 20% off that first box!
