So it is September already and whilst it has been a busy month already blog wise (Beauty Advent Calendars anyone?) and beauty boxes have started to appear in my letterbox. The September edition of Glossybox is a really good edition this month and it comes with a little gift of a bar of Kinder Bueno chocolate.
First out of my box is a 30ml sample of MONU Firming Fiji Facial Oil and it is worth around £6.50.
This facial oil designed for dry/sensitive skin and is described as being a nourishing and soothing facial oil which is paraben free and uses a mixture of Plant oils to firm and tone the skin, whilst keeping it hydrated alongside rosewood oil and patchouli which provide essential protection to soothe dry skin and stimulate your complexion. I am a huge fan of facial oils and this particular one has that calming spa like scent to it.
The next product is from Pixi and it is their Brow Tamer and this is a full sized product worth £12. I adore Pixi as a brand for both skincare and makeup and have featured them on my blog on quite a few occasions, with a few more posts to come.
Described as being a clear brow gel that works to prolong the wear of your brow colour, it is infused with both Aloe Vera and Panthenol. I find the formula to be really quick drying and whilst it doesn't harden on your brows (some people have claimed it does) I did find it does give enough hold to keep your brows in place and the spoolie brush is really easy to use.
Next up is quite an odd inclusion, but one which fascinates me all the same and it is the Taylors 32 Natural Whitening Toothpaste worth £5. Taylor's 32 is a shiny and new dental healthcare company whose mission is to create high quality and effective products, made from natural ingredients, and that are free from harsh and unnecessary laboratory made chemicals.
I am quite particular when it comes to teeth care products and I am quite looking forward to giving this a try, I like the idea of using a toothpaste with nothing harsh in it.
At the beginning of 2017 I was introduced to a brand called Skinfix and shared my thoughts on some of their products HERE. In this months GlossyBox we have the SkinFix Eczema Hand Repair Cream in a 30ml sample size worth around £4.
It has no added fragrance and is described as being an ultra rich hand cream which uses shea butter, vitamin e and sweet almond oil. When used it is said to be effective at treating and managing eczema, dermatitis and other dry, cracked skin conditions on the hands. It works fast to create a barrier on the skin to help lock in moisture and keep irritants out.
The final item in my box is the StyLondon Siligel Blender which is full sized and valued at £5.99. If you have used a silicone blender before then you won't have too much trouble with this one.
They are designed to be used with liquid of cream products and to that end, they help to minimise product wastage meaning your beloved foundation lasts much longer. I like using mine with face masks as I find I get a much more even coverage than with a brush, but this is just a personal preference.
So there you have the September Edition of Glossybox. Do any of the products stand out to you? I think for the price, this is a great box and if you’re a new subscriber or you choose to subscribe to this month’s fabulous box, you’ll receive a makeup gift worth £30 from Spectrum Collections and Bellapierre Cosmetics by subscribing HERE.
