Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box

This months Glossybox is a really special edition, not just because it is packed full of mazing brands and their products, but because it happens to be the 10th birthday edit - yes, Glossybox is celebrating its 10th birthday which is simply incredible given the market is saturated with beauty boxes in all different kinds of shapes, sizes and budgets. But here we have a brand who release some incredible one off limited edition boxes as well as their regular monthly boxes and this one, well it is quite something.
Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box
This months box features five products that are described as being the absolute beauty must-haves and it has everything from skincare and makeup to a few products in-between, pretty much everything you need to get yourself party ready and raring to go.

The first product out of the box comes from Elemis and it is a deluxe mini of the Pro-Collagen Marine Cream.
Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box
Not only is this cream filled with powerful ingredients such as Rose Absolute, Mimosa Absolute and Padina Pavonica, it is designed to hydrate your skin, whilst increasing its elasticity, suppleness and firmness. It is incredibly lightweight when applied to the skin and I really like the gel-like texture, which isn't greasy or tacky to the touch.

The second product out of the box comes from NCLA with the So Rich Birthday Cake Cuticle Oil, which looks a whole lot of fun to use.
Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box
This is a limited edition cuticle oil which is not only scented like birthday cake, but it is designed to deeply hydrate and soothe both your cuticles and nails. Using Vitamin E extract alongside safflower seed oil not only nourishes your nails but it also locks in moisture. It has a handy rubber-grip dropper which allows for perfect dosage and application every time, without spillage and waste.

The third product within this birthday edition comes from Steve Laurant with a full-sized eyeshadow palette aptly names Celebration.
Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box
Featuring a mixture of both matte and shimmer shades, these neutral tones with the addition of a few darker shades take that eye makeup from day to night with minimal effort and not only are they incredibly pigmented, they apply like an absolute dream and they don't budge easily once applied.

The next product out of the box is another makeup item and this time it comes from Lottie London with the Ombre Blush in shade Haze.
Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box
Nestled inside its compact, Haze is a peach to orange ombre shade which is absolutely stunning and perfect for this time of the year. The powder formula is described as being an ultra-soft, easy to blend powder gives skin the perfect lit-from-within flush.

The final product in this box comes from Frank Body with the Anti-drama facemask which comes packaged inside a pouch.
Glossybox 10th Birthday Edition Box
Using a cocktail of pore-purifying ingredients, this mask is designed to help decongest the skin as well as that never-ending battle with blackheads. With the inclusion of charcoal, chamomile, honey and lavender which together work to draw out embedded impurities, calm inflammation and combat clogged pores, this mask also only needs up to 15 minutes of your time.

I absolutely love this months box and the products which have been featured to celebrate the 10th birthday of Glossybox are quite something, I love the mixture of skincare and makeup.

As you will all know, Glossybox is a beauty box subscription service and it costs as little as £11 per month here*. By subscribing to these boxes, it gives you the chance to get your hands on the Limited Edition boxes.

Daisy London Jewellery - Interlock Chain Necklace

Now that we are out of lockdown and life slowly begins to return to whatever the new normal might be for everyone, it’s been nice to venture out, slowly into the world and see actual humans for the first time in what feels like a long time. I’ve got a few events coming up with people I work with and having bought a new dress for the occasion, I also needed and was looking at a new necklace and Daisy Jewellery fit that need. 
Daisy London Jewellery - Interlock Chain Necklace
I chose an exquisite piece by the stunning Estée Lalonde, whose collection is just absolutely beautiful and features pieces in both 18 carat gold and 925 silver
Explore our collaboration collections with Estée Lalonde. Effortless jewellery designed to elevate the everyday, fusing organic shapes, textures and heirloom details.

The Estée Lalonde Interlock Chain Necklace in Sterling Silver and it is part of the The original collection that Estée has designed with Daisy.

The Estée Lalonde Interlock Chain Necklace is absolutely stunning. It comes packaged in the most beautiful understated box, sitting nestled on its tray. What I love about this necklace is how easy it is to wear, it can be worn as part of your daily outfit, it looks incredible with your dressiest of dresses and perfect for whatever the occasion might be.

The chain of the necklace itself is long enough at 20 inches that it doesn’t sit tight around your neck, but for me, the right length do it doesn’t hang too low I catch it on my clothes, plus it is designed to be born with the interlock at the front of the back depending on your preference and it can also be layered with other necklaces. As an ethical and eco-conscious brand, every Daisy piece of jewellery is crafted in recycled 925 sterling silver and the quality is just incredible. 

Also available in gold, this necklace retails got £115 and I just absolutely adore it.

Lookfantastic Summer Scent Edition

The latest launch from Lookfantastic is the Summer Scent edition, which, if you are fanatical about your fragrances, it could be just the box for you. The last Scent Edit from Lookfantastic was released back in May and it was quite the box, but I think this one is even better!
Lookfantastic Summer Scent Edition
Inside the box you will six fragrances from some incredible brands with everything from Paco Rabanne to Carolina Herrera and if you are wanting to find a new fragrance for an event, as a treat or even jut want to try something new, a box like this gives you the opportunity to do just that. I love fragrances, but I like trying them within my own surroundings, in places I frequent rather than in a store or department store, I like to know how something is going to work with my skin a few hours after application, once it has dried down, rather than purchase from one spritz.

Priced at just £55, the six fragrances inside the box are really good sample sizes with a mixture of 5ml, 6ml and 7ml, giving you more than enough of each fragrance to decide whether or not you might like it. But, there is also something else, inside the box you will also receive a £55 voucher inside the box and it is redeemable on one of the six full-size fragrance of your choice! SO essentially, you are being the chance to try before you buy!

Contents

  • Carolina Herrera Good Girl 7ml
  • Paco Rabanne Olympea Blossom 6ml
  • Paco Rabanne Lady Million 5ml
  • Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal 6ml
  • Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle 6ml
I am lucky enough to havw tried all of these fragrances and would find it really difficult to choose my favourite from these six, Olympea Blossom is one of those fragrances you can wear at any time on any day as is Lady Million and La Belle, but Good Girl and La Belle are definitely something a little bit special too.
Lookfantastic Summer Scent Edition

You can find this box on sale right now with Lookfantastic for just £55 and I would love to know if any of these fragrances capture your attention!
