Beauty Boxes (monthly subscription) DISCUSS HERE

I'm really pleased with mine - I'd psyched myself up for getting stuff I wouldn't used based on what others have got but am actually really pleased with my box! I got:

Shower gel
Perfume Samples
Anti-wrinkle and firming masks
OSMO Hair Treatment
HD Brows Eye Smoothing Serum (marked at £3.90 but worth way more than that!!)

So, overall I'm pleased!

EMJ - i do love how they seem to have deliberately typoed one of the products as being worth a few pounds when its actually worth nearer the £15 mark! obv to stop all the "her box is worth more than mine!" but instead just makes them look even worse!

I think you're right there - though I'm not complaining as I'm on the receiving end!!

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!

How did you use it?? AS a treatment or on wet or dry hair?? Just about to wash my hair and wondering what to do!!

My GB just arrived, was thinking it would be via RM not courier and didnt get a dispatch email so was a surprise! Must say the bits dont really suit me so will cancel. This is my first box but tbh after the birthday box hype I'm not really overwhelmed! I got..

Shower gel - smells okay will use at some point
Perfume Samples - nice to try but not really something I *need/want*
Weleda something in a tube? - I like Weleda products but am annoyed the box, tube and instructions dont have a single English translation on! But anyway wont use it I dont think.t
HD Brow Beater- again wont use on my blonde non existent brows.
Lasting colour eye gel in brown - dont use eyeliner so again wont use!
Balloon and mirror

If anyone has any swaps then feel free to pm me!! So dont think GB is for me really, here's hoping the others are more to my taste, definitely looking forward to the Amarya one! xx

Despite no email, just had a knock at the door and my birthday GlossyBox delivered. I like all the poducts. Pleased I got typoed product in mine!

Approx £14.95 (not £3.90), so very pleased, as a product I've always wanted to try.

Spoiler, please highlight:

Noble Isle Bath & Shower Gel, Summer Rising - £6, Love this
2 x Lolita Lempicka perfume samples - not too keen on teeny perfume samples as an item, but both come in a spray so handy for handbag, and surprisingly nice
Weleda Wild Rose Body Milk (10ml)- approx £1.20, another body cream, Noooooo! Would have preferred face-cream, but...:rotfl:
Lasting Colour Gel Eyeliner (Teal) - £4.99, Love this colour
HD Brows Bow Beater (8ml) - £14.95; this looks full-sized to me, so a misprint most definitely.
GlossyBox compact - Very useful
A birthday balloon

Overall pleased with mine, as will use all the items. :T

I've updated my earlier post, as realised I was commenting on stuff that you'd whited out to keep the surprise. Sorry!

I'm keeping this months box, as useful for cosmetics, toiletries.

I used it on dry hair last night. My hair is very dry and wavy/curly. Amazed ant how soft my hair felt and not at all greasy.

I'm going to try it on wet hair tonight as a serum after the fortnightly hair wash (i joke!). I imagine it's a bit harder to control the amount you use on wet hair though.

Hi all,

Think everyone must have their boxes now, I'm always last in the North of Scotland! I thought it was quite good, I like the shower gel as it's nice to have 'everyday' products. I really needed a mirror so that's come in handy, I like the look of the lashes, have a bit of a collection now though! Am the most excited to try the Argan hair oil, there isn't normally enough hair stuff in these boxes for my liking, and looks like this will really condition.

Hope everyone is happy with theirs.

Hi! I've been lurking for a while (had last month's LuxBox and this month's Glossybox) and thought I'd contribute with the contents of my Glossybox, which was waiting for me when I got back from the dentist. Almost made up for 45 mins in the chair! I got:

HD Brows brow beater - I really like this, when I applied it it felt like nothing was going on, but my eyebrows are still in place. Hoping over time it'll straighten my eyebrow hairs out as they're slightly curvy and they generally go all over the place so I'm thrilled with this! Something that if I'd know about I would've bought it. Feel really lucky to have gotten this.
Perfume samples - didn't really like either but I'll keep them for nights out/handbag)
Shower gel
Weleda night cream - haven't tried it out but I'm unlikely to use.
Eyeliner - teal - I'm loving the colour, clashes horribly with my current outfit though
Obligatory mirror and balloon.

Pleased I didn't get the lashes as I had some in my LuxBox - I did like them, but I wore them to the end of year ball and funnily enough I don't have one of those until next year!
