The festive season is now over and the majority of us will be back to work, back into Education or kids back to school, the rush, excitement and buzz of Christmas can leave you feeling absolutely worn out and ready for one long nap - if only we could hibernate! The lovely team over at Glossybox have put together the January edition of their beauty box and it is aptly named Sleep and Refresh.
This edit is filled with 5 full-size products which includes everything you need to create a revitalising ritual to get up and take on the year ahead. Inside the box, there is a mixture of skincare, makeup and there is also a beauty tool too.
The first item out of the box is by a lovely brand known as ByBi, a brand I have featured on my blog a few times (here and here) and today sees the turn of Strawberry Booster which is made from upcycled seeds from the juice industry.
This booster is designed to be used as part of your existing day time routine and is described as being a great skin-softener, which works to improve moisture levels for complexions that are feeling a little dry, flakey or sensitive.

The second item out of the box is something you can never have too many pairs of and that is the Basic Beauty Tweezers.
These tweezers have the classic slanted tip which makes grabbing the smallest of hairs and plucking effortless. Like Bobby Pins, I am forever losing my Tweezers, so was delighted to see these in my box

Staying with the brows, for now, we have a Clear Brow Gel from Model Co. Described as being Vegan and cruelty-free, this clear eyebrow gel can be used to hold your groomed brows in their place or to shape your brows.
What I like about this gel is its lightweight formula, rather than being quick thick in texture, it is quite light and easy to use whether your brows are groomed or are product free.

From BeautyPro we have a CBD Oil infused sheet mask which comes from their plant range of masks. Described as being something which helps to restore, calm and heal the skin from; Uneven skin tone, pollution damage, redness and blemish breakouts.
Made from a biodegradable bamboo sheet mask, it should be applied onto cleansed skin and then left for up to 20 minutes to work its magic.

The final product within this box is from Kueshi with the Double Effect Makeup Remover. It is formulated to remove waterproof and long-lasting makeup and because it a bi-phase solution, it uses the clear oily side to remove makeup whereas the blue lotion freshes and cleanses.
To use you simply shake the bottle to mix the two solutions together and apply to a cotton pad before sweeping over your face. What I like about this is the fact it doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy after using and whilst it doesn't remove every single trace of waterproof mascara, for which I use eye makeup remover anyway, it does a pretty good job.

I think this is a really good box from Glossybox and one which is a great way to kick off 2020 with a mixture of brands and products.
