Is it just me or has Glossybox's February offering come around really quickly?
This month Glossybox have run with a Fashion Week Edition, providing you with 5 sample "to help you get through the most glamorous, and often most gruelling" week of the year.
I wasn't immediately bowled over when I unwrapped the box, but actually, I'm really pleased with it!
What was inside?
DuWop Venom Gloss in Buttercup. (full size £16/10.4ml)
It smells delicious, a bit like spicy fruit bread. I've just whacked it on my lips and it's a subtle shimmer gloss with a tingly kick to it.
I'm impressed with it, but I'm not a huge gloss wearer, It was nice for a tingly hit though!
Impress Press-on Manicure. (full size £8.99)
Before I begin, there is a bit old typo on the Glossybox information card, as It states this is £17.40 for a full size. So before you all panic, it's just a editing error.
I was really impressed with the colour I was sent, If I'm in a rush, I always tend to go for a dark colour, and these will prove useful! Hopefully I can fit my nails as I'm not sure how easily you could shape these.
Awupuhi by Paul Mitchell Wild Ginger Treatment Oil (full size £25.95/100ml)
I wasn't immidiately interested in this little bottle, but once I realised it was a) a hair oil and b) smelt of ginger, I was extremely pleased. I whacked a bit on the ends of my hair and it left silky smooth ends with a lovely subtle perfume. Impressed! Probably my favourite product this month.
BM Beauty Pure Mineral Eyeshadow (full size £7.00/2g)
This is a very generous little sample, considering I hardly ever reach for pigments. I was sent Dusty Road, a gorgeous gold hue that will look stunning on eyes or on cheekbones and collarbones in the height of summer.
Como Shambhala Invigorate Shower Gel (full size £20.00/300ml)
I always appreciate a shower gel sample as I love to put them in my gym bag, this has a great zingy fragrance and It won't go to waste, however I can't imagine spending £20.00 on the full size, however great it was!
The Verdict.
Personally, what didn't immidiately wow me has turned into a great box. I know I'll use or look forward to experimenting with everything on offer and I actually prefer this to last month.
Have you had your box yet?
