March GlossyBox


Good afternoon Sugaplums!

How are you all? I hope had a lovely Easter etc - I know I did! :)

I know I've been a little MIA - bad blogger!
What's been going on with me? Well, I turned 26 on the 14th March and my boyfriend followed suit on the 17th! Haha. We had lovely birthdays, especially as I took him to Beaulieu (in the New Forest) for the weekend. We had such a lovely time, it was nice for us to spend some alone time together!

Onto the March GlossyBox...




Jelly Pong Pong
Lip Blush Moisturising Lip Stain
I've liked some of their previous products but this I didn't. It went on nicely but felt a bit...odd after? Haha. Can't quite describe it. Plus I really didn't like the colour on me.
Full size: £12 for 2.5g

Elizabeth Arden
Eight Hour Cream
I haven't tried this yet but I'm very excited to as I've heard such good things about it!
Full size: £25 for 50ml

Nails Inc
Nail Varnish in St James's
I haven't tried this but I'm loving the colour and I've used a few of their polishes before so I'm sure this wont disappoint.
Full size: £11 for 10ml

Couture
La La Eau de Parfum Spray
I actually quite liked the smell of this which I didn't think I would! Haha. Haven't worn it out yet though so we'll see if I truly like it!
Full size: £35 for 30ml, £47 for 50ml, £63 for 100ml

TRESemme
Salon Finish Extra Hold Hairspray
I've only tired this once as I'd use it as a travel hairspray - great size huh? I liked it and would definitely put it up there with my Vo5 one!
Full size: £4.69 for 500ml


What did you receive in yours? Did you like it?

February GlossyBox

Happy Monday chicas!

Is it really Monday already?! I feel like we skipped the weekend! Oh well.

Onto the job at hand. I received my February GlossyBox on Saturday which was a pleasant surprise! I didn't expect it to come so early. I'm quite excited to try out my items! :)







This months GlossyBox is a Valentines Edition. I like the sound of that! I thought the box was adorable and the wrapping was lovely. Oh and a heart lolly? Don't mind if I do!

Micabella Cosmetics
Mineral Blush Powder in Siera Suede
I've never heard of this brand before. I don't really like these tiny pots for blushers/bronzers as I find them so fiddly. I tested this on my hand, as you can see. I really liked how it came out, it has a really nice pigmentation and the colour is lovely.
Full size: £34.95 for 9g

MeMeMe Cosmetics
Beat the Blues
I've never used anything from MeMeMe before though I've wanted to. I'd say this is a dupe for Benefit's High Beam which I have at home but I haven't used for a long while. I'll have to try this out properly and let you know what I think. I thought it had a nice texture and pigmentation.
Full size: £5.50 for 12ml

Helen E Cosmetics
Moisturising Lipstick in Marshmallow
I've never heard of this brand either. I'm not too keen on the packaging but the lipstick itself is stunning. I'll have to give this a test run. It was lovely to try out on my hand though. Haha. It's a lovely pink colour though I'm not too sure if it'll be too frosty for my liking but I'll try it out properly tomorrow and give my verdict.
Full size: £8 for 3.5g

Docteur Renaud
Raspberry Soft Cream
Ok, I haven't heard of this brand either! I haven't heard of a lot, have I?! Haha. This smells lovely so I look forward to using it. I may try it out as a night moisturiser.
Full size: £25 for 50ml

Narciso Rodriguez
For her l'eau
I quite like his perfumes from the samples I've tried. I haven't bought one yet so maybe this could be the one? Haha. It seems pleasant enough but I haven't worn it yet so can't comment completely.
Full size: £23 for 30ml, £46 for 50ml and £66 for 100ml
