Glossybox - The Power of Beauty, January Edition

The January Edition of Glossybox is all about taking inspiration from the natural world around us. I think one issue we are all more aware of, thanks to the likes of Sir David Attenborough and others, is the environment within which we live is sacred and we all need to be doing our bit.

So, to start of the New Year and 2021, this months box is focused on the fresh and pure with that it brings you a selection of powerful yet gentle products that your skin is going to adore. So the team over at Glossybox say “Strip back your beauty routine and showcase your natural beauty within”

The first product out of the box is from Daily Concepts with their Daily Reusable Rounds.

These natural and reusable makeup removal rounds are the perfect solution for helping you to start minimising your eco footprint. Ideal for cleaning and makeup removal, they stop the need for cotton wool pads and makeup wipes - both of which you dispose of, with these, you simply wash them and reuse them.

From ECooking, we have the moisturising serum. Described as being perfect for all ages in skin types this ear and give your skin a much-needed moisture boost.

I looking in your skins natural moisture and providing an extra kick of hydration this E cooking serum helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to ensure your skin looks useful and radiant.

The third product within this box comes from Saint Luxe, a brand I am not at all familiar with. The product in question is the Brow Gel.

This clear brow gel quite an effort effortlessly leaving your brows look in full and giving them a perfect shape that is designed to stay all day the brush which is quite short also helps to give you precise placement whilst at the same time ensuring there is no excess residue.

From beauty pro we have the avocado infuse sheet mask. I am loving using up my collection of sheet masks right now and Beauty Pro have some amazing ones within their collection.

This avocado a few sheet mask will leave your complexion feeling softer and smoother than ever completely plant-based and with its enriching superfood ingredient which has been sourced in New Zealand the sheet mask also protect the skin from the elements and eight images in appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The next product I have comes from Mudmasky with their Serum Infused Eye Mask. Mud mask is a brand I’ve come to know for beauty boxes and this is the first time, in whilst that I’ve got to use a skincare product rather than hair care product. 

This Serum-infused Eye Mask is said to have been specifically formulated for the thin and sensitive skin under your eyes. It contains a super-high level of natural antioxidants. Its job is to improve the elasticity of the skin after 4 – 7 uses and in doing that, the skin under your eyes is said to look visibly less dark and less sunken. 

The final item within my box comes from You are sanitiser with a hand disinfectant gel.

I have always used hand gel, for as long as I can remember and it’s a product I always have in my hand bag, on my desk and usually there is some in the bathroom too. This one Is the hand sanitiser gel with 75% ethanol. It kills 99.999% Germs whilst increasing your skin moist by 34%. What I really like about it is it’s a handy size for keeping in your handbag.

This months Glossybox is definitely more practical and serious rather than fun and I am okay with that. I like the theme, I like the products, I love that there is a mixture of brands and of course 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.

Glossybox - The Blossom Edit

This month Glossybox* is quite possibly one of the most beautifully scented boxes I have opened! With Spring having well and truly arrived, the weather slightly improving in so much as the Sun makes a rare appearance through the clouds now and again, the team over at Glossybox have curated an edit that is filled with five awakening and nourishing products - all essentials that you need to bloom into a beautiful flower this April!

Inside this edition you will find a selection of products which all have a floral scent to them and naturally with the box being the Blossom Edit, they all smell absolutely wonderful.

The first product from the box comes from Nails Inc with the aptly named Blossom Kisses Nail Polish (£11) and it is described as being a soft pink with cool undertones. 

This really is a Spring Pink shade and it is perfect for everyday wear. You need to apply at least two coats of this polish to the nails and the formula claim to give at least 10 days of wear, though I did slightly cheat and apply a gel topcoat and as yet, a week after applying there has been no chipping.

Next, we have Avant Skincare, a brand I have come to know through beauty boxes and within this months Glossybox we have the Gentle Rose Beautifying Face Exfoliant (£92).

This exfoliator has been specially formulated to nourish skin and combat a number of imperfections, from enlarged pores to uneven tone, fine lines and dullness. The formula, which uses hydrating rose which is calming and soothing works to slough away dead skin cells, reduce the appearance of redness, wrinkles and irritation. The inclusion of Vitamin B5 delivers softening and healing benefits; moisture is retained and wrinkles appear smoother.

The third item in this month's box is from SportFx, another brand I have got to know via Glossybox and this month as have a Raspberry and Rhubarb Lip Balm.

Enriched with Shea Butter, natural oils and vitamins, this lip balm also has SPF15 to protect, nourish and moisturise the lips. Within this months Glossybox you might get the raspberry and rhubarb option as I have above, or the alternative Coconut scent.

The fourth product from this box comes from Rituals and it is the Ritual of Sakura Shower Scrub. I didn't even need to open to the tube to get a hint of the scent as it is the one that greets you as you open the lid to the Glossybox.

This scrub is enriched with delicate cherry blossom, nourishing rice milk and volcanic scrub particles making it a cleansing and exfoliating scrub which is designed to be used once or twice a week. Once it comes into contact with warm water, the scrub transforms into a really soft shower cream and it smells absolutely incredible. 

Finally from Sanctuary Spa, we have the Nourishing Rose Petal Hydrogel Mask and I am really looking forward to giving this a try because it sounds delightful.

Described as being a skin-quenching hydrogel sheet mask, it is infused with delicate rose petals plus a blend of minerals, antioxidants and vitamins which include repairing Amino Acids and antioxidant-rich Pomegranate extract, which seals in moisture.  The hydrogel sheet mask, which comes in two parts for the top and lower part of your face, works to deliver ingredients into skin with close and continuous contact, helping to improve moisture and redness. 

I absolutely love the Blossom Edit of Glossybox, each of the products I have started to or have used since it arrived and again, it is full of products to match the theme. If you like the look of this Glossybox, then grab it quick because so far, every single month the boxes have sold out within a matter of days.

Glossybox - Love Crosses Borders

As February is the month of love, you can expect to see a lot of love-related posts in the next few days from me and my blog.  Having already revealed my his and hers Valentines gift guides, I am sharing with you this month Glossybox is using the theme - Love crosses borders.

Embracing love across the world, whether you say I love you, Je t'aime, Ich liebe dich or Jeg elsker deg, love really does cross borders.  With that in mind, this month Glossybox features five products and it is said these beauty products work together to give you dewy skin, a kissable pout and gorgeous eye makeup!

The first product from the box is from Floss Beauty, an American beauty brand with their hydrating lip gloss and I have shade ATH.

This Blush pink shade of lipgloss isn't sticky or tacky when worn, it is definitely hydrating and I love that you can wear it on its own for a hint of colour or you can wear it over your lipstick, I have found it works really well with most of the shades I wear on a daily basis.

Next out of the box from Starskin Beauty is the Dream Kiss Plumping and Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Mask.

Using Bio-Cellulose technology, this mask is formulated with naturally fermented Vitamin-rich Coconut Juice. On the lips, this ‘Dreamkiss’ lip mask closely follows the contours of the lips. Infused with a blend of Sea Fern, Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid which instantly works to visibly plump lips, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful look.

Another product for the lips comes from Saint Luxe Beauty with this Lip Liner duo. Saint Luxe describes themselves as being a high-end, luxury beauty brand founded on the East Coast.

Lip liners are not products I ever rush out to purchase, I have been using the same two for as long as I can remember.  From Saint Luxe, this Lip Liner Duo in shades Crush and Cupid.  Crush is a deep red shade and Cupid is more of a mauve pink and what I really like about these liners is how soft and smooth they are when applied to the lips, instead of giving that dragging feel, they glide effortlessly and I have been wearing Cupid with the Floss lipgloss above as a duo for the last few days.

The fourth product from my box comes from Figs & Rouge, a brand I have come to know through beauty boxes and within this one we have the Wonder Love Charm Glow Elixir.

The Glow Elixir which has been newly launched is formulated using hydrating hyaluronic acid and Vitamins A, C and E which work alongside minerals, rose water and rose quartz, so it looks after your skin as well as giving you a lovely glow. To use, it is advised that you need 3-6 drops directly onto freshly cleansed skin. From the unedited swatch above, you can see there is a slight glow from those drops.

The final product within my box is a Glossybox angled lip brush. The brush which features a lightweight wooden handle and is decorated in the Glossybox Pink colour. 

The hairs on this brush are 100% synthetic and are angled to allow for a more precise application, while the smooth, yet firm, bristles provide control and an immaculate, expert finish.

I think this is another really good box from Glossybox and one which features products I am definitely using for myself.

As always you can subscribe to Glossybox right here and if you use the code BQUEEN20 you can get yourself 20% off that first box!

The GLOSSYBOX x Bella Beauty Box 2019

Glossybox has teamed up with Bella Magazine to bring you an exclusive Limited Edition box and not only is it bright pink and looks amazing but it worth over £55, you can grab your box for only £15!

Described as being 'Perfect for fast-moving, busy women', the collaborative box is filled with quick-fix, multi-purpose products that will have you looking flawless in minutes. 

Inside you will find skin goodies, full-sized makeup treats and hair essentials all of which are suitable for everyone and are great for anyone who is constantly on the go, running late or simply just never finds the time.

I was really surprised to find such a lovely mixture of products within this box if I am honest, for just £15 I wasn't expecting to find the likes of Pixi Beauty or This Works.

The first product to catch my eye was Air Dry Cream Lite by Lee Stafford.  Not a product I have come across or used before but it is said to be perfect for busy women who want a blow-dried look without the time-consuming hassle of actually blowing-dry their locks, well that definitely ticks a box for me. This lightweight moisturising hair cream adds texture and lift to your tresses without requiring any heat. After washing and towel-drying your hair, dispense a brazil nut-sized amount into the palm of your hands and apply it from mid-lengths to ends. Then, style your hair as desired and leave it to dry naturally. You’ll be left with soft, moisturised and salon-worthy tresses!

Keeping with hair products and next is Batiste.  Now I have a love-hate relationship with this brand, it does such a good job at removing oils, especially for someone like me who has greasy roots, but I do find that it does irritate my scalp.  This particular product is the Batiste Dry Shampoo & De-Frizz, so not only is it ideal for what is referred too as second-day hair that needs a quick spruce, but this dry shampoo also smooths out frizz and tames fly-away. It has a blend of soothing coconut, green apple, melon and grapefruit makes your tresses feel soft and smell luscious.

The third item in the box is the NIP+FAB Glycolic Scrub Fix. Described as being a face exfoliator with 3% Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acids and fine-grains which work to refine, brighten and renew skin. NIP+FAB Glycolic Scrub Fix is said to work deep into your pores to cleanse, purify and tighten whilst preventing blemishes. With a fresh grapefruit scent, it does smell lovely and is one of those morning products to kick you awake.

A brand I got to know through beauty boxes and magazine freebies is Eyeko, more for the mascara than the product included within this box, the Eyeko FAT Liquid Liner.  Described as being an easy-to-handle chubby pen, it delivers big, bold lines with long-lasting carbon-black colour. Our blackest black glides on and stays on for a smudge-proof finish with conditioning algae extract.

Another brand that I got to know through Glossybox is This Works and in particular, the product included within this box which is the In Transit Camera Close-Up.  Described as being a handbag-sized gem that evens, plumps and brightens your skin, this product is a mask, moisturiser and a primer all in one and contains a powerful blend of repairing plant oils as well as a boost of caffeine to erase signs of fatigue and make your skin look radiant.

Finally, we have one of my absolute favourites from Pixi by Petra and that is the Fresh Face Blush in shade Beach Rose.  I am more of a bronzer fan than a blush fan but there is something about this shade that I adore. The powder is silky soft on the skin and it has a  natural mineral formula is infused with vitamin E and mica, so skin is treated as you wear it. It is also hydrating, long-wearing and light-diffusing and the colour on my skin is really natural.

This is a great box for just £15 and it would make a great stocking filler present for a loved one, Secret Santa, friend or even a treat for yourself.  There is a really nice mixture of contents from brands and it can be snapped up here.

Glossybox bareMinerals Limited Edition Beauty Box

I absolutely love it when Glossybox launched a box collaboration with brands and this time it is with bareMinerals, a brand I know so little about.  Over the past few years, Glossybox has collaborated with Living Proof, Sunday Riley and La Mer.

Inside the box, you will find five products, of which two are full-sized and is worth £75, if you are a subscriber to Glossybox then it costs just £25 and if you want to purchase it as a one-off, then it costs just £30 here.

The first product within the box is the BarePro Glow Highlighting Drops (£23) - Boasting light-reflecting mineral pearls, these highlighter drops create a natural-looking luminosity. The BAREPRO Glow is more than just a highlighter though! It gives a whole new meaning to the phrase ‘youthful-looking glow’.

Formulated with green lentil and bamboo extract, it evens out your skin tone and reduces the appearance of pores. Better yet, it is also infused with oat sugar which works to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  Available in ‘free’ for fair to medium skin tones or ‘fierce’ for tanned to dark skin tones and when you purchase this box, you will get to choose which shade you want.

The second product is the Lashtopia Mega Volume Mineral-Based Mascara which is described as being comfortable to wear, it makes your lashes look curlier and more voluminous without weighing them down. Formulated with moisturising and conditioning minerals. This is what gives it its unique weightless formula, making it smudge, clump and flake-free. Plus, these minerals nourish your lashes and keep them feeling soft.

I really like the brush which comes with this mascara, it has a large brush which features over 600 soft bristles that allow you to coat every lash.

If you are a fan of bronzers, then you will love the third product which is new to the bareMinerals family.  The Endless Summer Bronzer is a mineral-based matte bronzing powder which works to instantly create a Summer glow. 

Unlike many bronzers, this bronzing powder doesn’t contain any glitter or talc. Instead, it boasts a tanned hue that creates a natural-looking warmth. Better yet, it is infused with bareMinerals’ special Gradual Glow Complex which gradually tans your skin as you wear it. Formulated with Mineral Blurring Microspheres which helps to blur the appearance of pores and fine lines.

Up next is the bareMinerals Skinlongevity™ Vital Power Serum! Formulated with a Long Life Herb Extract. This is an incredible skincare ingredient that grows on the Japanese island of Okinawa, the home of the world’s oldest living female population.

Despite their age, the women from Okinawa still have youthful-looking skin – and it’s all thanks to this herb! Full of vitamins and minerals, these vital nutrients replace the minerals that our skin naturally loses as we get older. So, this product is described as being a wonder serum that plumps your skin and smooths out fine lines and wrinkles.

The final product within the box is the Prime Time™ Foundation Primer. bareMinerals created this primer to address flaky dryness, fine lines, excess oil, and enlarged pores. 

This mineral-infused formula uses some amazing ingredients, including:

• Vitamin C boosts the collagen levels in your skin to firm, plump and smoothes your skin.
• Vitamin E protects from damage caused by free radicals (these are unstable atoms that upset the balance of your complexion).
• Aloe vera calms and soothes your skin while hydrating it too.

I love how easily it glides on to the skin and it does so without a tacky or greasy feel to it.  For me, it does a great job at providing a skin-smoothing complexion which makes applying my foundation a breeze.

Again, this box has an overall worth of £75, if you are a subscriber to Glossybox then it costs just £25 and if you want to purchase it as a one-off, then it costs just £30 here.

Advent Calendar

Just a reminder that the Glossybox Advent Calendar goes on sale this week and it costs just £70 here. Inside it features 25 products from brands such as Chloe, Dermalogica, NYX and Tarte!

Glossybox Summer Soiree

This June, Glossybox is inviting you to join them for their Summer Soiree. June is the month the weather gets warmer, Spring comes to an end and Summer arrives, usually. Whether you have a wedding to go to, the races, a BBQ, garden party or even down to the beach, the iconic pink Glossybox for the month of June is full of essential products you can slip into your clutch bag, your weekend bag or to keep you looking your best on the go.

The first item in the box comes from Avant Skincare with the Pro Perfecting Collagen Touche Eclat Primer (£85). Described as being a silky, lightweight, universal primer that instantly perfects the look of skin.  

Given its price, this Primer clearly sits within the high-end category and it is formulated with two key ingredients which work to not only improve the elasticity of your skin but also reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and they are:

• Cetiol® Sensoft: a versatile oil that balances the pH of your skin and makes your complexion feel softer.
• Isododecane: a soothing ingredient that coats the skin in a protective layer, reducing the appearance of patchy skin and helping your complexion to stay hydrated for longer.

What I have liked about this primer so far is how it sits on the skin, it is lightweight, it is silky and it doesn't make my skin feel greasy or tacky to the touch.

The second item within the box comes from Hask and it is the Unwined Deep Conditioner called Sauvignon Blanc (£3.99). 

Free of Sulfates, Parabens, Phthalates, Gluten, Drying Alcohol and Artificial colours, this deep conditioner, which is wine based and it is designed to add shine and nourish using a whole host of incredible ingredients which include:

• Wine Extract - packed with antioxidants to help rejuvenate, strengthen and soften
• Resveratrol - found in the skin of grapes, helps protect and restore hair
• Grape Seed Oil - rich in vitamin E helps smooth cuticles & prevent frizz
• Apple Extract - rich in vitamins to promote healthy-looking hair
• Watermelon Extract - helps nourish & moisturise

I am a huge fan of making sure I use a deep conditioning treatment, hair mask or even an oil once a week to give my hair some TLC. Rather than smelling like a bottle of wine, this mask is freshly scented with a hint fruit and because the sachet is 50g there is enough product for two treatments and I was really impressed with how silky smooth my hair was after just one use.

Having dealt with both skincare and haircare, makeup now becomes the feature of the remaining products within the box and they include a contour palette, a matte lip creme and an eyeshadow chubby stix.

From ModelCo. we have the inclusion of a Lip Creme Matte in shade Peachy Nude (£15). It is described as being a full coverage, long-lasting and highly-pigmented lipstick that glides on effortlessly to give your pout a rich, matte coverage.  Upon application, this Lip Creme Matte dries to a matte without leaving the lips feeling dry and taut.

This Peachy Nude Lip Creme Matte has warm, pink undertones which softens the peachy tones and makes for an incredibly beautiful shade for the summer. It also has a scent of peaches when applied.

Meech n Mia is a brand I had never come across until Glossybox and this Chubby Stix eyeshadow (£12.99) is quite something.   I have shade #054 which is a beautiful gold and not only is this Chubby Stix is highly pigmented and what I wasn't expecting, is how creamy it is. 

A handy size for putting in your handbag, what I like about this product is that you can use it on its own for a pop of gold colour or you can use it with other products to really make your eyes pop and it blends like a dream.

The final item within the box comes from Sleek and it is the Face Form Contouring and Blush palette in light (£9.99).  I am a huge fan of Sleek palettes and this one is a multitasking palette which is perfect for being on the go.

Made up of a bronzer to help with contouring, a highlighter for radiance and a blusher to add a hint of colour.  I adore the rose gold blush which has peach undertones on this palette, it can be applied as a light dusting of colour or can be built up to add more of a flushing colour. The bronzer isn't too dark, so it works well with my fair skin and the highlight shade is a sparkly creamy beige shade.

Putting all of these products together, this is an incredible box which fits in really well with the Summer Soiree theme and whether you are going abroad, having a staycation or going to the races, a wedding or a garden party, then you have just about everything you need to be ready in this box.

As always you can subscribe to Glossybox right here and if you use the code BQUEEN20 you can get yourself 20% off that first box!
