    Oh yes have a lovely holiday! Am very jealous, I'm terrible at packing and always leave it to the last minute!

    Thanks all, and congrats to you too Rose, this is our second so I am more prepared then the first time, but also am rushed off my feet looking after her so am even more worn out!

    I'll Just sign upto JB box then - just to get the bday box as the boxes look lovely themselves! I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up with lots of stuff to sell on Ebay or to swap as I'm just so picky! xx

    I was given the codes by a relative who won a Joliebox in their facebook comp. There were 50 winners who each got 4 promo codes in their boxes, so a bit of asking on Facebook might turn some more codes up:)

    And thanks for the Amarya info Missli, I think I may sign up with them too. But I have to limit myself to two boxes eventually!

    Just popping in to say that I received my JolieBox today and I was really pleased with it (I realise not everyone will be...)

    I was lucky and loved the colour of my China Glaze polish (no.711, China Rouge). It's a gorgeous deep pink/muted red - exactly the kind of shade I'd choose. I feel pretty lucky :D

    I was also happy with the Essential Care Organic Rose Moisturiser (15ml, which I think is around £7.50). I'm looking forward to trying this and 15ml will last ages :j

    I'm really excited to be able to try the Talika eye lash serum.

    Last (but not least) I'm really happy with the RMK Make Up Base (15ml again, which I think is a very generous sample size).

    I will use everything and that counts more (for me) than receiving 5 items. I'm looking forward to their birthday box as I believe it's going to be all French products :j

    I hope that everyone is having a happy Saturday :beer:

    I was a bit disappointed with mine, not because of the only 4 products but because of what I got:

    China Glaze - Professional Nail Lacquer (full size) 14ml no.711, China Rouge (with nail hardeners) - already own a similar varnish so this is a bit of a waste.

    Essential Care - Organic Rose Moisturiser 15ml a light-textured facial moisturiser - Quite happy with this

    RMK - Make Up Base 15ml primes and adds moisture - not really my type of thing

    Talika - Eye Therapy Patch 1 pair, 3 uses - I'd rather have got the Talika eye lash serum.

    Still it was definitely worth more than I paid, so mustn't grumble and it'll all come to good use, whether as presents or by me :)

    Thank you, Grannyx2 :)

    I would have been disappointed not to get the lash serum :o I've read that the RMK base is more like a moisturiser than a normal primer, so maybe it will be ok?

    It's true that I have other colours that are very similar to China Rouge but I've never tried China Glaze polishes and I was relieved not to end up with a neon yellow or a very pale pastel colour :rotfl:

    Here's hoping we get five exciting French samples next month :T
