April's Glossybox

This week I received my May Glossybox which reminded me that I posted a video on my YouTube channel with what I got in my April Glossybox and hadn't shared it with you all!

I'll pop it below so head over if you want to see what I got! 

Also might be worth subscribing while you're over there in case I forget to share my video's again!

Thanks for reading

What’s In My Bag Tag

So this is a little bit of a different post for me as it isn’t fully focused on anything makeup or beauty related. Instead, it’s a tag which I love watching and so, although it isn’t as popular anymore, I thought I’d film a ‘What’s In My Bag Tag’.

I’m the type of person who likes to be prepared and my friends know this so if we’re out and about and they need something, I’m always the first one to be asked and chances are I’ve got it. To see what random things I’m talking about, click the link below to head over to the video...and while you’re there feel free to subscribe so you don’t miss any future videos!

Glossybox - March 2018

So a couple of week's ago I decided to cancel my Glossybox subscription once I had received my March box. However, now having received my box and seen what I got I can't bring myself to cancel my subscription as it was just so good!

So, here's what I got...

Mudmasky Sleep Repair Renewal Nourishing Mash - RRP £61.00 for the full size

I've never heard of Mudmasky before but this Amsterdam brand uses all natural ingredients and promises to sooth, smooth and nourish your skin. As with all my favourite night skincare products it's scent helps to ensure a better sleep so really it's good for body and mind! Still not sure if that allows the hefty price tag but I'll see how I get on with it.

Oryza Beaty Warm Nude Lipstick - RRP £15.95

This semi-matte/satin finish lipstick is definitely not my shade. However, the swatch was very pigment and felt very smooth. I imagine this would be very comfortable to wear but on someone else as this shade just completely washes me out.

Figs & Rouge Soft Foxus Pore Perfect HD+ - RRP £35.00

Yes this is full size and work more than double of the whole box! I LOVE the packaging of this serum with the hint of gold on the lettering. It is designed to minimise the appearance of pores which is absolutely something I can get on board with so very much looking forward to trying this.

Meg Cosmetics Good Morning AM Mask - RRP £4.50

I've never seen a face mask which is meant for use in the morning specifically but love the idea of it as it'll set you up for a great skin day. It helps to leave your skin looking fresh and bright so I think I'll save this for a 'morning after the night before', potentially after one of three weddings which I've got coming up!

La Theorie Des Volcans Noir Eternue Youth Potion - RRP £26.50

Another product which along is worth more than double the box! This is a brand which I've received before in Glossybox and LOVED. It smelt amazing the last time and my skin took well to it so I'm very excited to try another product by them. This is a purifying scrub which you can leave on for a couple of minutes, much like a mask, to have a deeper affect.

I can't get my head over the fact that the box cost £10.00 plus P&P (£3.95) and yet the value of the box is over £81.95 as four of the products were full size. So I thin kI'm going to have to back on my decision to cancel my subscription...dang it Glossybox! You win again!

Birchbox - March 2018

This months Birchbox’s theme is Mindfulness which I am all about. I absolutely love the tag line it came with of ‘Be present not perfect’ and know it’s definitely something I need to work on more myself. This box is all about taking time out and looking after yourself so with that in mind, let’s see what came in the box!

Blaq Peel Off Mask - RRP £14 for the full size

I love a good face mask and especially a peel off one! This one is targeted at stressed skin and works in 15 - 20 minutes. I can’t wait to give this a go as my skin is definitely in need of some TLC just now.

Benefit BADgal BANG! Volumising Mascara - RRP £21.50 for the full size

Now this was undoubtedly the item which I was most excited about in the box. If you watch any beauty YouTube channels then you will have probably seen the massive launch which a Benefit held for this new mascara. They really hyped this up so I couldn’t wait to try it out and was beyond disappointed when I did. Admittedly I haven’t got on amazing with benefit mascaras (love their other products though!!) but I really hoped this one would be different. However, it is quite possibly the clumpiest mascara I’ve ever tried, so bad that I actually had to take it off before leaving the house which was extremely messy given how wet it was! I’m going to wait until it dries out a bit more and then give it another go.

Absolution Le Nettoyant Pureté - RRP £26

Took me a while to find out what this product is but apparently this is a natural cleanser which is great for sensitive skin. I love a good cleanser and also up for trying out a new one so excited to give this a go.

R + Co Badlands Dry Shampoo Paste - RRP £22

This is a dry shampoo paste....?! My mind is blown. I’ve never heard of a product like this but love how compact it is. I really hope it works well as getting rid of greasy hair and I’m also hoping that since it’s a paste it’ll give great volume (the main reason I use dry shampoo!). I’m going to wait until a day when I don’t necessary need to leave the house in case it goes horribly wrong.

Rituals Sakura Foaming Shower Gel - RRP £4.50

I love Rituals bath products and know that this one won’t disappoint. The shower gels which I’ve used in the past by Rituals all provided the best foam and smell beautiful so this is a very welcome addition to my collection.

Let me know what you think of these products and if you received a Birchbox too!
