Glossybox Exclusive Editions: Think Pink.



I was a little bit surprised when this was delivered to me this week as the October Glossybox has already been - and I was even more surprised when I opened the package to find a shocking pink Glossybox inside! 

Glossybox have launched the Exclusive Editions for current subscribers, they contain 5 of the best handpicked products which are known to be the products loved by industry insiders.
Sounds pretty exciting, right? Just take a look at the above - this months box contains my favourite mask, the REN Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask, a travel size of Moroccanoil (also a favourite of mine), Mamo Mio Clean Slate cleanser, Ole Henriksen Truth Serum Collagen Booster and Kosmea Radiance 24/7 Youth Boost

The last three products are new to me and I'm already sold on them! Also inside the box is a small magazine which gives an introduction to the box and a description about the products, I found this useful and a great way to familiarise yourself with the new brands. 

This box is for active subscribers, each of you will receive an email which contains details of the box and how to receive it. On top of this, 10p from each box this month will be donated towards Breast Cancer Care in aid of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 

This is definitely one of my favourite boxes from Glossybox, the whole concept suits me and the products which have been picked are all great. I'm looking forward to other Exclusive Editions boxes in the future!

Glossybox May - Anniversary Edition.







Happy birthday Glossybox! What a wonderful year they've had, it's been so fun being an ambassador and working with the Glossy team. I've actually never missed a Glossybox, I have had every single box (and a few extras from events) which is awesome and I can't wait to see what the year ahead holds for them.

This months box was a little bit special and I'm really pleased with it. I haven't had a chance to try all the samples yet, but there's a great variety and some really good products.
My box included Noble Isle shower gel which smells lovely, Lolita Lempicka perfume samples, Weleda Face Cream, Collection Gel Eyeliner and HD Brows Brow Beater.
We also get a little mirror and a birthday balloon to blow up!

A lovely selection of products - I do like Weleda products and I'm getting more and more in to natural and/or organic products so I think I'll really enjoy using this.
My favourite product has to be the HD Brows Brow Beater, a finishing product for brows which sets them in place and helps to shape them over time. It's a wand with a clear liquid/gel that is easily brushed through the brows. Yesterday when I used this, I actually forgot to fill in my eyebrows and didn't notice, so it's great to cut down on products and still have my brows looking tip top.

The Collection liner is a rich brown shade, I have to admit I've never tried a brown liner but I find black makes my eyes look harsh and small so this could be my winning product.

Overall, it's a great box and well worth the money. As a Glossybox ambassador, I do receive my box for free but of course, all views are honest!

Glossybox Event & March 2012 Harrods Edition.

  
  











Instagram photos from the Glossybox Ambassadors Event in the Laduree Tea Rooms in Harrods, Knightsbridges. 
My March Glossybox, a collaboration with the Harrods Beauty Counter. 

The Glossybox "Mystery Box" is finally here! It was a mystery box for us Ambassadors too - we were sent an email about a collaboration and a "save the date" invite for the event, but that was it! When the news finally came that the event was at Harrods, we were still slightly confused as to what the contents would be.
The box contains samples from the Harrods Beauty Counters, and I think it's a lovely idea and a great collaboration.

I've included some pictures from the event, as it was one of my favourite events with some of my favourite girls! We ate macarons at the Laduree Tea Rooms in Harrods, I'd never been here before but I love it, such a pretty place. The boxes were on display, so we could have a look at the possible contents and tweet the boxes first before the Glossybox team announced what the Mystery Box was.

I really love my March box, I'm excited to try the Ojon Hair Serum as it's a brand I've not yet tried but have always thought about purchasing something from. I was hoping this serum was in my box so I'm pleased to have got it!
I'm not too bothered about the Molton Brown Shower Gel as the smell is a bit citrus-y for me, but it's a nice little sample to get and it will be great for travelling.
The SK-II moisturiser I will probably pass on to someone else as I don't need anything anti-ageing but the samples I will definitely use. I love Shu Uemura skincare, I haven't tried these oils yet but I can't wait to see how good they are, and I already have a sample of the Valentino perfume and it's lovely, so good to take with me to Scotland so I don't have to take a full, heavy bottle.
Finally, I was lucky enough to get the Burberry lipstick sample. It's not my colour but I do think it's so cute and mini that I instantly wanted it! I probably won't use it, but I wouldn't really want to.

I'm happy with my box, but of course there are products that I also would have loved to get, such as the Bliss, Revive and Clarins creams! I don't think you can really go wrong with this box, it has some lovely products and it's almost certain you're going to love at least one product in the March box. I think the sizes are really reasonable too - especially for the hair serum!
A lot of people have asked me if it's worth just subscribing for this box - I can't really make that decision for you. Personally, I love the box and definitely think it's worth subscribing for. The information card gives you an idea of what to expect so I'm sure you can work out if you're going to like it or not!

What are you hoping to receive in your box?

PLEASE NOTE: The information card specifies that the contents of the box may vary, I know subscribers don't get their boxes for a couple more weeks so there may be some changes from what I've listed. Just a heads up!
