April Glossy Box Preview


Hi guys so its that time of the month, Yep April Glossy Box is here!!! I thought I would do a quick post about what's in this months and an overview. The theme this month is all about being green (not literately) but all the products this month are ethical goodies that have come in a 100% biodegradable box which I quite like.

Figs and Rouge Peppermint & Tea Tree for lips face & body balm smells fab! and makes my lips instantly soft, but I wouldn't put it on my skin unless its an emergency as it does feel quite greasy. 

Figs & Rouge

Inika Organic Eye-liner in Sapphire, this has to be one of the softest eye-liners I've used it literately glides on. I'm not a fan of the colour as I don't tend to use blue due to the Pat Butcher look but I've got a feeling I may grow to love it.

Philip B Drop Dead Straightening Balm is according to the package a non-greasy silicon-free water-soluble styling aid that give curly or wavy hair a straight, tangle-free, and sleep finish. However I do have quite straight hair to start with so I'm not sure how useful this will be for me but ill keep you updated as it has to be used before you dry your hair. It doesn't smell of anything really which is a little disappointing but we shall see.

Monu Professional Skincare Enriched Body Cream is a very thick cream with a smell that I cant really describe but its fresh and I feel slightly lemony. It soaked in very well but it did however leave my skin a little greasy but that didn't last long. As I have very dry skin and this did nourish it for a little while but didn't last very long, if you have normal skin then this could be fine but I'm not convinced for very dry skin.

And last but not least the Caudalie Vinosource SOS Thirst-Quenching Serum which by the title I was quite excited about. Smell wise it isn't anything special but did leave my skin very smooth and very touchable but I will have to give it a few days to see it it lives up to its description so ill keep you posted.

      Obviously this was my first box but the secon one should be tailored to what I want and use. U fill out a short questionnaire and they use this to pick what's in your box but only from the second one.
