Hey guys hope you've all had a great start to the week, as promised I'm sat doing my post about this month's glossybox! Can't believe it's now 20/10/2015! seems like yesterday October started!

Jelly Pong Pong - Fairy Lashes Curl Mascara - £17.95
I actually received one of their mascaras a good few years back when I first subscribed to glossybox, 

I was excited that I got another one, the one I had before was different though where as this one is a mascara to help with curling your lashes! This mascara has a 100% cruelty-free formula, It claims to leave lashes with dramatic volume and intense definition so I cannot wait to try this out!
Gorgeous packaging and it's full size! If you want to check out more of their products please visit the

link I'll post it here >>>>  http://jellypongpong.com/

So Susan - Haute Light Highlighting Pencil £15

This peach-hued creamy crayon will flatter anyone, apply it along the inner rim of the eyes to make the whites pop or blend over your brow bones or cheek bones to boost radiance.

100% Cruelty-Free (We do NOT test our products or ingredients on animals)

The packaging is just so cute, anyone else think so?! It may be £15 but it's worth it considering that it's not tested on animals & the effort they put into the designs for the packaging. I am a sucker when it comes to highlighting my face so this will suit my super pale face! Excited to be trying this out when I get chance.

Please visit their website they're an amazing company! <3

Lanolips Antibacterial Hand Cream £8.99

Some people received Lanolips lip glosses, so when I knew I got this Antibacterial hand cream I was so excited, it's proven to kill 99.9 % of germs. I love it's sleek packaging completely travel friendly so I'll be taking this out with me everywhere from now on :)  I have actually used this and not only does a little go a long way, it doesn't have that thick or greasy feel which is great!
For some reason the card you get in your glossy box it says this product is £8.99 but the only place you can get it is boots, and their website says £9.99... 

Either way it's worth it as it does  what it says :D

Talika Photo-Hydra Day £24.85

As I suffer from dry skin I couldn't wait to get my hands on this product, it claims to be deeply hydrating, especially in the autumn/ winter! It has soothing and nourishing ingredients alongside plumping hyaluronic acid which will leave your complextion hydrated and primed!
This is so excited and I cannot wait to add this into my skin care routine :D

Please visit their website to check out their products! talika.com/US/GB/

Nicka K - Airbrush Blending Sponge £6.50

I was so shocked that I got a product that I can actually apply my make-up with, 

Although I'm happy enough receiving make-up products it's always nice to switch it around!
I've always been a 100% fan of applying my foundation with a flat top brush as I find it gives a more airbrushed flawless finish  ( my opinion ) so I cannot wait to try this sponge out as I've heard great things about Nicka K products. It feels dense and soft which is awesome!

If you want to see any of their other products feel free to visit their website!! nicka.com

Birchbox February 2015

Good evening everyone :) I'm excited to say that I will be un-boxing my first ever Birchbox with you guys and explain each product :) you can buy them all at www.birchbox.co.uk/shop 

 Once opening my box I got super excited to see they put all your products in a cute little bag with strings that you pull to close it - It has the BIRCHBOX name and then the logo on the other side.  I think it's a great idea as they aren't all over the place when you open your box. I love how they have made the boxes slimmer too.

If you would like to know more about their new slim box visit;
