So I have just taken delivery of the much anticipated April Glossybox, which we all know has been designed by Pearl Lowe and her love of all things floral. Before getting to the contents of my box, I have to say that I really do love the design on the box, it is so pretty and this is one box that I am definitely going to be using for other things:
So here you have the very pretty box, one of the prettiest ones I have seen from Glossy box. Now for the content:
Opening the box, I kind of hoped that the ribbon would have matched the peach colour of the outer box, but never mind, it is still nicely wrapped and once inside, my Postie has clearly been bouncing the box around because the contents were all over the place. However, once I sorted them out, this is what I found:

However, once I sorted them out, this is what I found:
Nip+Fab
dry skin fix body butter in mango
I've have never used any product from Nip+Fab so I
am chuffed that I have one in my Glossy Box to try. It is described as being an indulgent, whipped
body butter to repair dry and dehydrated skin with aquaxyl – a 24 hour moisture
boosting ingredient.
A full sized sample of this product is £9.95 for
200ml so this size is worth around £2.50
Essie Nail Polish in Canyon
Coral
I have fallen a little bit in love with Essie Nail
Polishes at the minute and from previous posts you might have seen my haul HERE
and HERE.
This polish is a full sized sample retailing at
£7.99 and it is a really lovely bright almost reddish colour, so cannot wait to
try that.
Sleek Blusher – Suede
This is another full sized product retailing at
£4.49 and I got Suede for my shade, I have seen other boxes with Flushed and
Pixie Pink and in mine is this lovely natural looking colour. I am yet to catch onto the Sleek loving, so
maybe this will hook me in.
As an added bonus to Glossybox subscribers there is
a 20% off offer on purchases – expires on 13th May
Yves Rocher So Elixir Purple
Again, perfumes have been on my radar quite a bit
recently as you can see HERE and HERE. I am a huge fan of perfumes and I quite
like getting decent sized samples. This
one is a 5ml sample which I guess is worth around £5 and It is described as
being an ‘intoxicating and magnetic fragrance’.
I havent been able to resist smelling it and I
really quite like it, quite fruity though when you first put it onto your skin
it is a really strong scent and it takes a while to settle.
A full size bottle of 50ml will cost you £44 and once again this product comes with an
offering of £5 any order over £35 plus free postage, on any product from Yves
Rocher.
Sunsense Daily Face SPF
This cream, which is described as being a light,
soft cream tinted with a sheer matte finish and has an SPF of 50 which is quite
impressive and it is an oil-free formula making it ideal for most skin types,
even my own combination/oily.
This is a full sized sample and is worth £18.50 for
the 75ml and also has an offer of 25% off your next purchase, ending 31st
June (I am sure they mean 30th June however).
I must also remember that included as normal is the Glossy Magazine:
And inside the magazine is an intrview with Pearl Lowe herself by Kate Cornell and an introductory message from Pearl herself on the love of all things vintage and floral. Inside the magazine is more information on each of the products included within the box, which opens up to be almost A3 in size.
So there you have it, my Glossybox, one that I am really chuffed with this month. What are your thoughts?
