Finally the anticipation has gone out the window and I arrived home this afternoon to find a my first beautifully packaged GlossyBox. First impressions were good, the contents were wrapped up in lovely tissue paper with a silk ribbon and sticker to hold it all together, all beautifully bundled in a pink GLOSSY BOX...funny that! I felt like it was my birthday the way I un-tied that ribbon, I did it with haste and excitement with eyes wide open to see what was inside - that's the thing about this Glossybox experience, you feel good about yourself, its like someone has sent you something special and forget that you have in fact given yourself a gift, we are aloud to do that sometimes right? So, this is what I received....

Juicy Coutre Malibu Collection
Very summery, fruity scent to both samples. Not an Eau de Toilette I would normally go for, because if I am honest, I wouldn't be drawn to that brand but it's not bad, an easy casual scent!
£47 for 75ml

Dove Hair Therapy Intensive `repair 60 Second Treatment Shot
Now, I know why they have sent me this....when you first sign up to Glossybox you have to fill out a questionnaire which is great - it asks you what your hair type is, what your skin type is, what colours you like and what make-up you usually wear and so on. From that information they build a profile for you and send you products that would match your wants and needs. SO....I put down that I have coloured hair, completely bleached right through to be precise (YIKES) and that it often gets a bit dry. So this is them just thinking of me really and wanting to help me out a little, I like that.....I give you money and you send me treats to make me look semi respectable...thank you!!!
£1.49 for 15ml (bargain)
Buy from the obvious places!!
( Again, not tried it WILL UPDATE!!!)
Sleek MakeUP Pout Polish
First of all, totally love the name...pout polish, nice! This is a tinted balm with SPF 15, almond oil, shea butter & vitamin E....and guess what I have tried this one (see images below), I actually have it on as we speak.
I don't normally wear lip balm apart from liberally applying Carmex about 20 million times a day at this time of year. I am also not a big fan of gloss or colour unless its a sultry red but I genuinely do like this for an everyday lip nourishment, will look great with a tan and will defiantly be added next to the other beauty products that are sparsely hanging around in my hand bag.
£4.49 for 10g
Buy from Sleep MakeUP website here.
