Review : January GlossyBox

It's that time again. GLOSSYBOX. Everytime i get my parcel i immediate rip! yes... rip! open the box with excitement. This month's box is probably going to be one of my favourites. Not only did i get 5 full sized products, but all the items i got were exactly the kind of products i use, and needed.

Here's what i got :

Jelly Pong Pong 

All Over Glow 

Full Size : £10 for 15g

GlossyBox send Jelly Pong Pong products frequently, so i'm not new to the brand. I love there mascara, so i was happy to see another products of there's to try out. The All Over glow is an oil-free illuminating gel that highlights the cheeks and brow bone. The gel is a dark brown colour with a glittery effect. Once applied on skin, it leaves a shimmering effect left by the glitter as well as a shine. Now, i'm not a huge fan of glitter products unless i'm applying it to my toes, but this product is very subtle so the shine is more noticeable than the actually left over glitter. Something i'm obviously happy about. 

Naked Lips

Organic Lip Balm Superfruits

Yummy. Is the first word that comes to mind with this product. It smells delicious! Glides smoothly onto the lips, leaving a nice natural shine. I love it. And everyone needs to get one of these.

MeMeMe

Eye Line Pencil In Clay

Full Size £4

MeMeMe is again, another frequent product from the GlossyBox and one that i've had a love, hate relationship with. I'm glad that GlossyBox sent me a brown eye liner pencil and not black. I don't use black, so this was a bonus point on there part. The product is the same typical size of any other eye liner with a smooth textured body, which just makes the handling of the product more comfortable. It is a very soft eye pencil, probably the softest i've ever used, but this isn't a problem as i much prefer soft pencils anyway. It glides on really easy and if your wanting a smudge effect you can also smudge it easy too.

Kueshi Natural & Pleasant Cosmetics

Revitalising Face Toner

Revitalising Face Toner doesn't smell like your typical toner, it actually smells SO GOOD! Not bland or strong. It smells like... shampoo. A fruity shampoo. It is your typical toner, urging that it'l make the skin smoother, controls shine in oil prone area's, leaving the skin feeling heathy, fresh and clean. I haven't used this product yet, but the smell has won me over, which must say alot if one whiff and i'm already hooked.

Colorluxe Powder Blush

My favourite from this months GlossyBox is the Colorluxe Powder Blush. I'm in need of a blush, so it must be magic that GlossyBox knew this. I lovelovelove how you apply it. On the top of the product there is an already attached soft, powered puff applicator making it very easy apply without any mess. There is also a mirror on top of the lid, so as i like to say, it can be a  ' blush as you go ' product. It isn't an over powdering colour, leaving your cheeks with a natural blush effect with no shine or sparkles. My perfect kind of blush, very matte. 

                                                                   

                                                                          Goodjob GlossyBox!

My Favourite Mascara

Mascara. Mascara. All Hale Mascara. Being one of my favourite type's of beauty products, i have tried quite a few different brands, big headed, small headed mascara's but i am at the minute loving the BADgal Lash Mascara by benefit. Priced at £17.50 for the full size, i managed to get the full size and the travel size kit at half price in the christmas sales, Another Bargain!

The head of the mascara is longer rather than being stumpy. When i took the end out from the tube i had no problem with any access. I've had the problem with some brands that i have to wipe off stringy bits, which, i suppose isn't a big deal. The stick of the product is fairly long and can be awkcrud if you have a small face, but i've managed to make it work.

I applied two layers to my upper lashes, and left my bottom lashes natural. It DEFINITELY made them longer after applying another coat. You could actually see the transformation with each stroke (BONUS POINT TO BADgal MASCARA).  I wouldn't say it gave my lashes much.. VOOM. But if your like me and like the natural look then this is the mascara to go.

I know there are quite a few loving the, they're real!, mascara also from benefit. But i'm one of the few that will never use it again. Maybe i had a dodgy bottle, but it was as stringy as melted cheese, just no no.

                                        

Thanks for reading! What's your favourite mascara?
