I’ve always been a big fan of the Glossybox – I mean, who wouldn’t love a beautifully packaged pink box of goodies arriving at the door every month? But, they have seriously stepped up their game in the past few months. Absolutely everything in this month’s box is a winner, and now that we’re heading straight into party season, I can see myself reaching for my new goodies incredibly regularly!
The theme for this month’s box is Lipstick to Lashes (although unfortunately, I didn’t receive a lipstick) so I thought I would start with the lashes! They’re Eyelure Naturalites, a brand that I’ve never tried before, but I love how subtle the lashes look.
I’m a big fan of lashes, so I can’t wait to give these a trial run! They come packaged with a little vial of adhesive, and they are a beautiful, glossy black, so these will be absolutely perfect for adding a subtle oomph to my lashes over the next few weeks.
When I saw the tube of Emite Diamond Heart Primer, I got rather excited! I’ve been really trying to remember to use primer on a daily basis, so this new one came at the perfect time!
The brand promises that it gives skin a beautiful healthy glow, and I don’t think you want anything else at this time of year. The formula is a soft peachy-pink colour, and it completely disappears into skin, leaving it feeling very soft and smooth. It’s a great base for layering even the lightest of formulas on top.
As something of a neutral eyeshadow fiend, I was absolutely ecstatic to receive a full size palette from MUA. I’ve never tried anything from the brand before, so a palette packed full of 12 stunning browns was a great place to start.
The palette feels well considered, and the shades range from buttery neutrals to charcoal black. The mix of satin and shimmer finishes is great, and the palette is a great one to slip into a makeup bag if you need to amp up your look during the day.
I think the product I was most excited about was the Royal Apothic Cream Creme which I received in the scent Venetian Grove.
As if the packaging wasn’t gorgeous enough, the scent is something special – a mix of Currant, Plum, Orange, and Clove which smells so clean and fresh, it’s an absolute joy to apply.
The cream itself feels wonderfully rich, and since I’m so in love with the fragrance, I’ve been using it mainly as a hand cream so I can eek it out for as long as possible! Even though the cream is quite thick, it sinks easily into the skin, and leaves my hands feeling and smelling great!
This may be my favourite box yet!

I used to subscribe to Birchbox and Glossy Box, however I cancelled my subscriptions a few months ago as I found the boxes were slowly getting more and more disappointing and a little repetitive. I have to admit though, the selection of brands and products this month looks amazing!

Hi Roxie, oh that’s such a shame to hear! I’ve never subscribed to Birchbox, but I have to say, Glossybox has been on point recently! Do you think you’ll resubscribe? xxx
