Christmasy Nails


The last product from December Glossybox is the most Christmasy I think. It is a Collection Long Lasting Nail Effect in colour Strawberry Gold. I don't think it is strawberry it is more of a purpuly colour with lots and lots of gold fine glitter. The price of this nail polish is £2.99 and it is actually really long-er lasting than most nail polishes. 
I like as it dries quite quickly and in dries in a thin layer of nail polish so it doesn't feel like you have a full coat of gel on your nails. I don't know why but the colour of this polish to me is super Christmasy so I loved wearing it before Christmas and for New Year. 
It is really a great nail polish and I would really recommend Collection for nail polishes or just any make up from that brand. 

Are you liking Collection  stuff? what is your favourite?

Lipgloss to show off


A Glossybox lipgloss was from Essence. It is a Liquid Lipstick in colour  04 Show Off. It is such a barging at £2.50. The quality of this lipstick is great, it is quite moisturising and very pigmented and super glossy but it isn't sticky like most lipglosses are. 
I absolutely love this colour is very coraly pink but so wearable and the best bit is you can totally control the pigmentation. I absolutely love the wand too, it makes me feel safe. I don't know why but it just does, like I trust it. 
I 100% recommend this lipstick if you are looking for something summery and playful. 

Have you ever tried it? What do you think?

Bio-cellulose Facial Mask


The additional product to this special Glossybox was bio-cellulose facial mask.
I love trying new masks and I particular like the cloth masks. They are a lot easier to apply and discard and they don't dry out on your face. They have a hydrating and brightening job, you can wear these masks for longer. I like to put it on and then watch a TV series or movie or just browse the internet. Of course I have nothing against all the other masks if your skin needs a little kick they are really good too but I think that cloth mask is for lazy people, which is why I like them so much. 
When I received this mask I was very excited to try it out, in fact I didn't touch it for a month or so because I was saving it for a special day. 
A few days ago that special day finally had come. I read on the packaging that it is infused with a full 30ml bottle of serum, that is crazy. When you are feeling the packet you can totally feel how much of product is inside. The mask comes in two parts or three shall I say. There are two outer layers protecting the bio-cellular mask which is the one you put in your face. The protecting layers aren't cloth like which I think could be very useful as you can have three mask in one, but they are paper texture and they feel really rough although they are soaking with serum. I am a little sad to waste all that serum to be completely honest with you.
The second skin layer that goes on your face is the nicest thing I ever had on my face. It completely sticks to your skin and it is like cloudy clear colour and it makes you look a little scary. It is cut out really well so every inch of your skin is covered. I was a little concerned as the eye area wasn't too big so one of the sides of the mask was touching the bottom of my eyes and I was a little bit worried that some of product might get into my eye but alas it didn't.
It says to keep it for 20-25 minutes which I loved as I can enjoy it more although I ended up leaving it for 45 minutes. I had a few dried patches of the mask that then stuck to my face but I am not complaining. 
It made my skin super soft and loved. I would say it did brighten a little. It is as if it corrected my face colour and it made my face looked more refreshed for a few days after I used the mask. 
The price ranges from £8.50 (there a quite a few different ones) which is a lot for a mask but it is such a good mask I wanna say it is worth the price. 
Now I am left with quite a lot of product in the packet which I kept, but the whole point of these masks is that the cloth helps the serum to sink into the skin. I will still try to use the serum even without the mask.
I think this mask would be really good for people with complicated skin and for those who get a lot of redness it is literally a spa treatment for your face. 

What do you think about it? Have you ever tried it? Did you like it?

So Susan Highlighter


This product was one of my least favourite from Golssybox. Not that there is something horribly wrong with it, it does what a highlighter is suppose to do, I am just not excited for it. 
I am becoming a fan of compressed powder highlighters, I find them a lot easier to apply and blend in. I notice that cream highlighters are stronger but they are so hard to blend in and once you do you loose half of the product so what is the point. 
I find it especially hard to work with products such a sticks rather than original circle packaging with a cream highlighter inside. Purely because you will use your fingers or a brush to apply the product. 
This highlighter is in a very pretty cream colour. It doesn't have gold shimmer I'd say it is more white/light pink shimmer which is really nice for young girls or very simple make up look. 
It sets nicely but it is movable after it sets and it is just a pretty highlighter. 
I also really like the shape of the pen it makes it easier to reach for corners such as brow arch or inside your eye. 
It's price is £15 for 1.8g of product and it is 100% cruelty free.

Golden Skin Roll-On


One of my favourite products from a Glossybox is this roll- on under eye gel. I have never heard of a brand Être belle but I have high hopes for it now. I was never into roll-on gel for your eyes but seriously you need to try it if you haven't. The metal ball is so cold and it is refreshing under your eyes. It is like giving water to a fish that has been on the shore for far too long. 
The actual gel is quite nice too, it smells quite luxurious but the smell is faint. It feels very moisturising without it being greasy. It also has golden glitter but not too much of it, you can't even see it and it doesn't tan your skin like I thought it would once I read the title. 
It relieves stress from under eyes and you can use it both day and night. The gel soothes and smoothes and makes you feel refreshed and honestly it does do that. I didn't believe it at first I just like the cooling sensation but when I looked back in the mirror a few minutes after I put it on I realised that it made me look more awake.
You can get it online for 19.95 euro which should be about £16-17. 
I highly recommend this products on tired eyes and someone who get eye bags or dark circles or anyone who's eyes get super tired during the day, you will not regret it.

Talika Photo-Moisturiser

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
talika moisturiser, hydration lotion for your face

This is my first thing I tried from my GlossyBox and it is the only one I use daily. It says that it is suppose to react to light to lock in moisture into your skin. I am not sure if it does that but I do know that it gives my skin some love and I just like it. It feels super nice on your skin once you put on, it is gel like texture so you don't need a lot of it. It doesn't pull your skin or anything it is just a very nice everyday moisturiser. Talika Photo-Hydra doesn't leave your skin greasy or oil either which is what I love the best on those no make up days.
The price of this product is £27 for a 30ml tub.
I highly recommend this is you are looking for something nice on your skin.

December GlossyBox


As you may or may not know I am in love with Glossybox. I ordered my first November Glossybox box and then a few weeks later I saw that a new fancy box is coming for December too which I had to get. This one comes in special goldish/copperish box that say "Let it snow." with amazingly pretty ribbon that I used on one of my Christmas presents. 
It is a beauty box picked by Youtuber Really-Ree and I like what is inside the box and also you get 6 products rather than usual 5. 
Since I got this box in the middle of December and I am writing a blog post now, I got to try nearly all of these products. 
I really love this box and I really love all the products in it. Now I will give a blog post to each product and talk more about them .

Natural Falsies


To continue my finds at Glossybox the second product I am going to talk about us these lashes. I have quite long eye lashes so I don't really go for false lashes. However, recently I fell in love with false eyelashes. My own eyelashes are quite long so the only reason why I use falsies is to create more volume. I usually stick to individual lashes because I find them easy to apply and I am in control of them. They are also quite fluffy so it gives me nice volume. I am crap at applying full eye falsies on myself. I know how to do it on other people but not on myself. I also think my eyelash shape makes it even trickier to apply. 
Anyway, I have tied to apply these lashes once and I must stay they are very natural. They are as long as my own lashes so it just creates more volume rather than length. I have used the glue that comes in this box but I really don't like it. I don't think it is as stick as I would like it to be and it dries out really quickly. 
I am thinking to cut these and to make them corner lashes because I like having that elongated eye look. 
Eyelure as a brand is amazing and I think you need to try quite a few pairs to know what suits you the best. You also need a lot of practice to know how to apply them on yourself so give it some time!
They are about £5 but you can find many different types of eyelashes for no more than £6.
You can always reuse them quite a few times but not too many because the bacteria will grow on these lashes and you might infect your eyes. To prolong them I suggest you apply mascara first and then false lashes that way won't have any product on them and you can use them for longer.

Diamond Heart Primer


Since I received my Glossybox I was exited to try everything in the box. The first thing I tried was this Base Primer from Emite make up brand. I have never heard of this brand and I was exited to try it out. It looked super snazzy but this is just a travel size. It is a light coral colour inside but it doesn't make your skin pink. The smell is also quite pleasant and not too harsh. The light reflective particles create a nice glow, it also is colour correcting hence why the coral colour. The whole idea of primers is to make your foundation stay on for longer. It is as if a primer becomes a glue to your skin but not in a bad way. 
It is priced about £25 but as it is Swedish brand they usually price everything in euros. You can but this online on Emite website.
I recommend this to people who are struggling with foundation and also for those who want to look flawless without foundation because this primer does make you look flawless.

Beauty Box


I have known about Beauty Boxes even before they were IT but I never managed to get one.The first one I ever discovered was Glossybox. I have heard many good things about it. It uses really nice products and some of them are full size. 
You can get different subscription but it usually cost £10 + p&p (which is £3.95) per box. You can order yours here
You get a few leaflets in this. I had Graze box voucher, a thank you card from Glossybox and a card where all the products are listed and how to use them and their full size prices. 
I will be doing 5 separate blog posts talking about the products in this box.
All I say now is that I am extremely happy with this box and I also think this would make a great gift for your beauty lover friends.
