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!

Review : SEXY MOTHER PUCKER : Soap & Glory

When going out, i find i prefer to wear lipgloss rather than lipstick, or i mix the two together and put lipgloss ontop on my lipstick. I just love how lipgloss can enhance your lips and the shine effect they give, bringing all the attention to your lips.

I chose to buy two lip glosses from the Soap & Glory, Sexy Mother Pucker range, priced at £9. I brought the Pink Appricot, which as well as the shine, gives your lips a touch of colour, and the Candy Gloss which is a pure sparkly gloss which i use on-top of my lipstick. 

The Pink Appricot is a colour i prefer to wear on it's own and my favourite from the two. The touch of colour is just enough to add that little bit of an extra natural pink tint to your lips. I like the natural look, so this lipgloss was a perfect buy for me as it didn't turn out too bright.

Candy Floss is again a very natural, but clear gloss with the tiniest tint of colour which i use on-top of my lipstick. It add's that little bit of extra to your lips whilst i found enhancing the lipsticks colour. It has little bits of glitter which aren't in your face, but are just enough to bring out even more shine and a glimmer effect once the light hits.

Both LipGloss's have a tingling sensation after a few seconds of applying. I think this is a love hate situation. At first i didn't like the tingeing sensation, i found it too strong and weird. But i now love this effect and it makes me think something magically is happening on my lips.

There easy to apply, with a very thick, sticky consistency. I would of liked the product not to be as sticky or of a heavy texture, but this is something that hasn't put me off the product. I also find i do have to keep re-applying as it does quickly fade, but again, i still love this gloss and it does the job.

They also SMELL GREAT! Not sweet, but a pleasant bearable smell.

Has anybody tried out any other colours?
