January Glossybox
This months Glossybox was called 'The Edible Edit'. It's a super food inspired box to transform your skincare routine. It came with three skincare products, one make up product, and a hair care product; so a pretty good mix this month.
The first skincare product I received was the Nip + Fab Kale Fix Moisturiser. I really love Nip + Fab and I haven't tried a product of theirs that I haven't liked yet. This one didn't disappoint. The only issue I have with this is that it smells a little odd. It smells very strongly of cucumber, which does feel a little weird when rubbing it into your skin. However, it makes my skin feel lovely and soft. The product is nice and light, and absorbs into skin quickly. This is a nice morning moisturiser.
I also received The Balm's Matt(e) Trimony Single Eyeshadow in the shade 'Matt Kumar'. This shade is very similar to the 'Red Ochre' shade in the ABH Modern Renaissance palette, but slightly more brown-toned. I love this sort of shade for Autumn, it looks lovely in the crease. The shadow is really pigmented, and it blends so effortlessly. Plus- how cute is the packaging?!
I received the Vitamasques Manuka Honey Face Mask. Now this face mask didn't smell like honey to me- which I was slightly disappointed about. However, It was a face mask that I didn't have a reaction to, so I'm grateful for that. The last Honey sheet mask I used smelt lovely, however, I had a really bad reaction to it, so I was a little worried about using this honey mask. One thing I will say about sheet masks is that they never fit my pea sized head. They always flap around on the side of my face where they have made the mask too big (slightly annoying). This one left my skin feeling slightly oily, and it took a long time for the excess oil to be absorbed. I probably wouldn't purchase this, but it was nice to try a new product.
I also received the Unani Illuminate Milk Cleanser. I've been really loving using this in the morning to wash my face. As it's a milk cleanser it feels really creamy and soft on the skin. It has lots of essential oils in which help leave your skin feeling lovely and moisturised. It has a fresh scent- a little like washing powder. I'm really liking this!
I also got some Hairon Zero Crease Hair Ties. Now this was the least impressive product as they have sent me these in a previous box, so I already have them. They do the job, and don't leave any kinks when I put my hair in a pony tail. I guess you can never have enough hair ties!
This wasn't as impressive as previous boxes but I still liked the majority of the products. It's nice to get so many full size products, making the box well worth the money and a nice treat.
