My First GlossyBox!

Hello there!

YAY! So I'm so excited be finally writing a post about this! After reading probably hundreds of posts b other bloggers showing their Glossy-boxes... I have jumped on the Glossy Box band-wagon.... Just a little late I may add!!

So first of all, here are some photos of my box and what I received.

*P.S If you haven't received you Box yet.. just a little warning that this post includes photos of the content*

Can't believe how exited I got when I was opening this box and as a beauty product lover... it was brilliant to go through it and see different products and brand I had never heard of before! While I was opening my box.. I kept thinking.. "why haven't I ordered on of these before!"

 I have also tried this Jelly Pong Pong Fairy Lashes mascara, and so far I'm loving it. Even before I tried the mascara I knew I was going to love this product. JELLY PONG PONG! Who doesn't love that name!

Can't wait to try this Caudalie Divine Oil, which can actually be used on your body, face and hair.I was a little worried about using this product on all three areas. After reading the ingredients  blend of grapes, hibiscus, sesame and argan oils, I actually changed my opinion and this product sounds to me like a miracle product if it does, excuse my cliche', what it says on the tin... bottle.

I haven't had time to try all of the products which I received. But I have been using this lip gloss all of yesterday and I have to say I really like it. The shade is Clementine Citrus and it really is a bright shade of orange and the when I first saw the colour I honestly didn't think I was going to like it at all. But once applied, the colour isn't as bright, but I paired with a lovely coral lipstick it would be perfect to go with any summer outfit!

Before purchasing a GlossyBox...or rather a subscription  I did a lot of research into what they were like and whether or not they are worth the money. Now I know there is lots of mixed opinions about the products within them and how expensive the boxes are, but I have to say that I really like receiving my box and I would defiantly get one again. 

For my the best and most exciting part is not only being introduced to new brands, but being able to try the products for yourself, before going and buying said product from the retailer.

Jewellery Haul...

Thought I would share some lovely pieces I have picked up from my recent shopping trips. The first is a pair of gorgeous, pink and mint green flower earrings from Topshop. I love these earrings and I had been searching for a nice pair to wear to work that weren't too big! The second item i picked up was a long multi-chain skull necklace. I thought this necklace would be perfect to pair with a black dress! This necklace was £5.50 in the sale!

And finally the last piece is this amazing spike necklace, which was £8.99 from Miss Selfridge. This necklace is a brilliant purchase, not only is it edgy and a statement piece, but it can be worn along with many outfits!

Wish Outfit #2

Hello there!

Well today I thought I would put together a little summer outfit...even though you would need an umbrella to go with this outfit with the weather I've been having! But I adore this shade of yellow and thought it would go nicely with all of these accessories!

Dress: From AX Paris £22.00

Bag: From LOVE £40.00

Shoes: From Bronx £47.99

Sunglasses: From VonZipper £60.00

Necklace: From Miss Selfridge £70.00  

Bracelet: From Dorothy Perkins£15.00

Nail polish: From Accessorize £4.00

So thought I would end this post with a question... How is the weather where you are??? 

Products I'm loving..

I am currently loving this No7 Lasting Nail enamel. The shade is Sandstone, and is a very neutral, nude shade. This nail polish is actually my mother's, which she gave me when she was clearing out some make-up.   For this reason, I'm not sure this shade can still be purchased...*sigh*.

This shade is perfect for when you need a nude colour on your nails and I have actually been wearing it in work. Even-though the shade is a neutral colour... when  applied to nails it gives a clean and classy look!
