After my disappointment with the last few Birchbox’s I decided to try out Glossybox as I heard lots of good things about it and it’s the same price at £10 plus postage and when I heard they were giving a full sized lipstick and an eyeshadow palette I thought it would be rude not too!
I was very impressed with this box – the actual box is huge and its presented in tissue paper wrapped in a bow – how lovely!
Here’s what I got inside –
Mua Eyeshadow Palette
I’m a sucker for an eyeshadow palette and this did not disappoint. The black packaging is plain yet effective and the plastic-ness doesn’t bother me so long as the eye shadows are nice! This palette has a lovely range of nudes, pinks and greys and I can’t wait to try this out!
Royal Apothic Body Lotion
Usually body lotion doesn’t excite me as you probably guessed already if you read my Birchbox posts but I will let Glossybox off for this one as the packaging is so pretty! It looks lovely and vintage and it’s actually a decent size for a sample so I don’t mind this one at all.
Eyelure Natural Lashes
Now usually fake eyelashes scare me as I can’t apply them and I am not good at applying glue near my eyes! However I will watch a few tutorials and try this out for one of my christmas nights out as I would like to try them!
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick
I got this in Fire and Ice and I was pleased as I wanted either that one or the purple one! As it was my first box I didn’t get to choose so I was lucky to get one I wanted! This is a gorgeous bright red and will be perfect for the winter season.
Emite Diamond Heart Primer
Love the packaging for this and its a decent size sample. This apparently boosts radiance and smooths skin whilst balancing skin tone so I am looking forward to using this!
I was so pleased with my first Glossybox and I cannot wait to see what they will produce for December’s box! Fingers crossed for a christmas theme!
What did you think of your November Glossybox? Let me know below!
Thanks for reading!

It’s £10 plus about £3 postage so about the same as Birchbox but with better products in my

Looks like you got some really great makeup that will last you through the season. I’m loving the eyeshadow palette, a soft pinky-nude is always a great option.

This is awesome! I wish it was that cheap in the US! Its $21 USD every month worth it but so much more then Birchbox =(
