Glossy Box, April 2013. Pearl Lowe special. ♥



Hi there,
If you dont know what GlossyBox is it's a beauty box you can subscribe to monthly or pay for a three month, six month or yearly plan. They're £10 plus £2.95 postage. 
You get five products samples and sometimes full size pieces. 
This month GlossyBox has teamed up with Pearl Lowe, an English singer-songwriter turned fashion and textiles designer, to create this months amazingly pretty box pattern.




MODELCO, cheek and lip tint in rosey red. I'm not a fan of this type of products so I haven't got anything to say. I got a cheek and lip tint in a box last year and it's just sitting in my box unused as will this!

NIP+FAB, dry skin fix body butter pistachio sundae. This is a dry skin fix body butter. The smell is very sweet with a thick consistency. I have very dry hands at the moment, I put this on and instantly they feel very smooth and soft. The smell is nice but overpoweringly sweet. I'm not a big fan of body butters so I wont be trying this anywhere else but it will go in my hand bag! Great, an other thing to lug around. :p

ESSIE, nail varnish in the colour 38 nice is nice. I love this colour! I have a few pastel shades in my collection already and this one will be playing a big part in my life over the spring/summer. This is my first Essie product and I was a bit let down, its a bit watery to what I'm used to in a nail varnish, so a few coats will be a must. 

SUNSENSE, daily face SPF. A light, soft cream, tinted for a sheer matte finish. SPF 50+. I tried this today and it made my face very soft and warm looking as I'm quite pale but it made my skin look greasy and shiny, which I'm not a big fan of. This sample had one of them stupid twist lids on it and when I twisted it off the product kept coming out and I couldn't stop it so half of it went on a cloth and in the bin.

YVES ROCHER FRANCE, So Elixir Purple. LOVE LOVE LOVE!  This came in a tiny little bottle in a box instead of the little tubes in a bit of paper. This smells sweet, girly and lasts for ages. Cant wait to put this on again tomorrow! I may purchase this as it's pretty cheap as well! :p

So, overall an OK box. Lets see what next month brings.
