Glossybox first impression

Hey everyone, welcome to my blog, today I decided to do a first impression.

For a long long time I have been wanting to subscribe to a monthly beauty box but kept putting it off.

I started watching YouTube videos of different unboxing and review videos and I was torn between ipsy and glossybox, so I decided to take the plunge and do a monthly subscription with glossybox.... Sure what can I lose?? 

So for €18 you get 5 sample size products from makeup to skin and hair care.

From the time I ordered the box it took under 2 weeks.

I was amazed by the packaging, I've seen it so many times in videos but it just looks so much better in person!

And that pastel pink is just so recognizable!

The packaging was just so pretty it was almost a shame to open it.... Almost.

So once I was finished admiring the packaging and also thinking about how bad I am at wrapping presents I opened it up.

The first item I noticed was the makeup brush which I was thrilled about, it's a gorgeous rose gold contour brush from the brand Luxie, which I had never heard of but I am so excited to try.

And along with that the second item I noticed was the illuminator and bronzer duo by So Susan, I opened the packaging and the smell of chocolate was overwhelming almost good enough to eat! This product will be perfect for summer as it gives you a subtle bronze tint with a bright highlight that will be enhanced by the sun, fingers crossed we will get some sun this summer, I am really excited to try this out with the Luxie brush.

The next item is a two part item, shampoo and conditioner by -417 full of minerals to give your hair a pampering and claims to hydrate your hair and leave it looking lustrous and gleaming, the packaging is extremely eye catching with a gold and silver theme.

I definitely feel like I'll have hair like one of the Kardashians after using these!

The next two items were skin care based with a facial serum infused with honey and propolis by Hey Honey and a skin tone perfecting cream by Olay. I was hoping to get some skin care items because my skin is going through a weird stage of being dry and oily at the same time, I'm definitely going to give these a go and see if they will work with my skin type which is combination.

I am very pleased with my glossybox and am delighted that I finally decided to take the plunge and order one, I'll definitely be keeping my subscription and will be looking forward to next months box.

I'll give these products a go and report back to you on how I get on!

If your thinking of subscribing to a monthly beauty box I would recommend glossybox from my experience, 5 beauty products for €18 a month you can't do much better than that!

I hope you all enjoyed this blog and maybe it has helped you make a decision on a beauty box subscription.

Have a wonderful week,

See you all in my next blog.
