    Ohh how exciting!! I hope you get something fab!

    I got my email today too - it gets delivered to work and am off atm so not sure if it's there yet - my luxbox is also due by Friday I think so I might just wait till then before I pop in to hopefully grab two boxes :T

    Had a bit of a look online earlier to see the various contents of this months glossybox and I admit, I was expecting 'special' due to their birthday (and the hype given by glossybox!) but it just seems pretty standard. Not that I'm complaining, and I'm still looking forward to opening mine and seeing what I get!!

    I hope you've all got/will get stuff you enjoy using x

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Just cancelled my GlossyBox as its lost it's excitement factor now. More face cream and eyelashes. Yaaaaaawn!

    Probably cancel JB as well if their birthday box is boring as well. Keeping Amarya, Amitee and Lux though

    I'm gonna go crazy and spoiler in white text as I thought we had agreed there would be spoilers on here. If you want to see highlight over below:
    So.... I got:
    Noble Isle 75ml Summer Rising SHower Gel £6 value
    Eldora lashes B168 (love these!!) £4?
    Argan Oil 10ml £1.99
    2 x aptivita face mask £3.50
    2 x Lolita perfume samples

    What did everyone else get?

    Luckily I previewed that post when doing it as once you press quote you can almost see the text.

    What a clever way of doing this, here's mine, done the same way,

    So.... I got:
    Noble Isle 75ml Summer Rising Shower Gel - £6
    2 x Lolita perfume samples
    HD Brows - brow beater - £3.90
    Weleda face wild rose "night" cream 5ml - £2.50 value
    Collection 2000 - lasting colour gel eyeliner in Teal - £4.99

    plus the glossybox mirror - tacky tacky and scratched
    and a happy birthday balloon.

    Reason the "night" is written like this is the product is all in French so I had to guess that it's night cream. What's with using rose for all these moisturisers recently?

    So as I've said, not a bad box but not a great one either. Value is in excess of £20 but nothing in there I would have bought for myself. I do like the smell of the perfumes though.

    have now cancelled

    That was my 2nd box - added prices to above list. Looks like this may be the most value box @ in excess of £27 but not too keen on the smell of the last item, don't wear eye lashes and I got the same colour item as my 1st box. Not a bad list, just a bit blah but then perhaps I've been a bit spoilt over the last 2 months and if I'd had this box before I'd have been a bit happier. Just nothing seems to Wow me really.

    I've still not had a dispatch email, but preparing to be underwhemed from the comments here.

    I feel relieved that I have Amitee, and LuxBox to look forward to this month. Still hoping with GB though, if I get it judging by comments.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    Ditto to evilsquid - I also got a £5 off code for Jolie Box so have ordered that one.

    Well I liked my Glossybox (more than the She Said Beauty one this month)- its all stuff I would use and nothing I don't like.

    Shall spoiler in white text!

    Noble Isle Summer Rising Bath & Shower Gel 75ml
    Lolita Lempicka parfum samples x 2
    Neals Yard Remedy Moisturiser full size
    Collection Lasting Colour Gel Eyeliner in gold (i only wear gel eyelines so pleased with this!)
    Eldora False Eyelashes

    Oh and a balloon and compact mirror - not for me but my little girls are very happy with them lol

    The NY item makes me come out in a rash so I'm glad I didn't get that! I think I got the best box for me. I ruddy love lashes though and wear them even with my glasses on. I think they just make a look!

    I tried the oil last night - OMG! Amazing things happened to my hair so I understand the hype now! Gutted that it may have to go on my can't live without list!
