I haven't completely fallen out of love with Glossybox, more getting bored of it. The last month, as you will find out in a moment, didn't really do it for me. Too much of the same, and that wasn't even very good.
Also, being the poor student that I am, and it coming up to festive season, I should really save my pennies for something more useful, like presents!...or alcohol! This isn't to say that I wont be returning to Glossybox in the new year, but there are a few other beauty boxes that kinda tickle my fancy, so we'll have to wait and see.
Regular content resumed!
Last months box:
- MeMeMe Cherubs Blush - Cheek &Lip Tint 12ml £5.50 - Now as shocking as this may sound, I actually quite liked this product, and I will say that it is actually my favourite product from this month. I usually don't like tints, I find the shades really harsh and artificial but this ones completely different. More of a plum than rouge it does give a healthy warm winter blush, and on the lips its equally as flattering for my skin tone. Also, at £5.50, I'M A FAN.
- Vita Liberata - Latte Illuminating Skin Finish (2 3ml sachets) Full size 30ml RRP £29.95 -OK. Prepare for rant mode. I'm not sure if you're all familiar with the Glossybox signing up process but it goes something like this; say what products you'd prefer, what skin tone you are, get it, be able to wear it. Now somewhere along the line someone thought it would be a right laugh to send me, with my near porcelain skin tone, a LATTE tinted moisturiser. LATTE?! If we're going for hot beverage references, I'm really more of a warm milk.
- Monu - Illuminating Primer (20ml) Full size 50ml RRP £24.95 - This came a close second this month. Lovely and light, if not slightly flawed by its bottle being over-generous with pouring (or maybe i'm heavy handed) it also has a really cute slight shimmer. I don't use foundation so with my blemishes concealed on top of this, it really makes for a lovely day look.
- Premae - Multi-Vit Smoothie Serum (20ml) Full size 50ml RRP £22.50 - I'll be honest, didn't really see the point in getting the 3rd item in a 3 step process so it seemed slighty pointless. It smelt good though, like Greentea...mmmm
- Unica - Kiss It Better Cream (5ml) Full size 50ml RRP £12.95 - Does anybody use LUSH moisturisers? I used to be obsessed with their Dream Cream, and this is a slightly more expensive version of this. Smells exactly the same with the same outcome, intensive moisturising. If you're interested go to LUSH and they'll give you a free sample no qualms.
And this months treats are *Drum roll*

- Vicy - Idealia Life Serum ( 3 3ml) Full size 30ml RRP £29.50
- Emite Make up - Micronized Eyeshadow - Dams (Black) Full size 1.48g £16.80
- Yves Rocher France - Hand Cream Full size 75ml £1.95
- Elegant Touch - Rapid Dry for Nails Full size 125ml £3
- B - Quick One Coat Professional Finish Nail Polish Full Size 8ml £4.99 (Gold)
YAY! Finally some nail products! I can't wait to try out this nail polish and test it's one coat claims! I also like the fact that there were two polishes you could get, the other being a Complete Long-lasting Nail Polish, but that's a claim that we're all used to being let down by.
Eye's peeled for next months review, guys! I have a feeling this may a good month!
