Glossybox Wake Up in Spring Beauty Box - April 2021 review

This month's Glossybox is titled ‘Wake Up In Spring’ and it is the theme for the April subscription box and I am sure everyone is delighted to be welcoming these warmer months.

With the sight of the sun in the sky (and some snow), flowers in bloom and the nights being lighter, the team over at Glossybox HQ have curated a box which features 5 products and it is not only worth over £50, there is also three full size products across the make-up, body product and skincare ranges.

The first product out of the box comes from Minus 417 with their Serenity Legend Hydrating Dead Sea Bath Salts (100g).

Feel the ultimate relaxation and soothing experience of pure Dead Sea mineral salts after a long day, these salts are enriched with unique healing minerals. As well as helping to enhance your skins ability to retain moisture and assist in the renewal of skin cells.

The second product in the box comes from Sophia and Mabelle with an Eyeshadow Quad Palette which is full sized.

I have the Aphrodite Palette which features four eyeshadows in differing shades of pink with one darker shade, they are a mix of both matte and satin shimmer tones which are designed to enhance your eye makeup look. As lovely as the shades are, I personally, I am not convinced that it is worth £25 which is the RRP on their website. 

The third product within this months box comes from a brand called Feel Free and it is their Antioxidant Eye Contour Cream, which is another full sized product.

This eye contour cream contains hyaluronic acid which moisturises the skin around the eyes and it also gives a light plumping effect, reduces the look of wrinkles, removes those pesky dark circles and swelling. It contains ingredients such as Aloe Vera, coffee, rice extracts, lemon, mint and apple extracts. The cream itself is really light in texture and applies more like a serum, but is definitely cooling on the skin.

The fourth product in this box comes from Skin & Co with the Roma Truffle Therapy Morning Dew Gel Cleanser.

Another brand I haven't come across until this box. Ideal for dry and sensitive skin types, this gentle daily cleanser formulated to thoroughly cleanse skin, uplift and brighten the complexion, and protect from free radical and environmental damage. It uses Black Truffle extract which is said to fortify the skin with powerful antioxidant enzymes, Umbrian botanicals which refresh the skin as well as to dissolve impurities, Papaya extract which brighten and minimises the appearance of blemishes, all the while improving the skin's texture and tone.

The final item in the box comes from a brand called DWTN Paris, which again is a brand I am not familiar with. Inside the box is a full sized Liquid Blush.

Formulated with 99% natural ingredients and totally vegan, this dwtn Paris blush is described as being the ideal product not only give those cheeks a pop of colour, but to bring a glowy touch to your makeup look. I find this blush to be quite pigmented, so you only need a small amount to be buffered onto your skin, though it is buildable depending on how of a pop of colour you want.  I am not usually a fan of blush, but I really like the shade of this and that I can tap it onto my skin using my fingers.

So there you have this months box. As with the March Edition of Glossybox, I really enjoyed the theme and I loved that there is a mixture of brands that I haven't come across or am not too familiar with. Plus, there is something for everyone whether you like skincare or makeup, there is the offering of both within this box.

As you will all know, Glossybox is a beauty box subscription service and it costs as little as £11 per month here*. If you have followed the Glossybox journey over the past year, then you will know that most boxes sell out super quickly, so I expect this one to do just that.
