You may have noticed that I have begun to split my sample boxes into two posts
an unveiling and a review but as this box was full of products I have already used
there really was no need to spam your dashboards with two posts.
As you may know the May Glossybox was to celebrate Glossybox turning one
which is quite an achievement when you consider how many sample boxes arrived on the scene
and how many are still around today...very few indeed.
What was inside/my mini review of each product:
Noble Isle Summer Rising Bath and Shower gel
This was by far the stand out product for me, I have had a look at the Noble Isle website
and was blown away by the amazing scents they have...hello whiskey scented anything
and you have a Scots attention ( I can say that i'm Scottish) but Summer Rising captures the fragrance
of a British summer and I really do think that is original and wonderful.
The shower gel itself cleanses wonderful and poured under running water it does froth.
Berber Oil
I have reviewed this in the past
but basically this is an oil hair treatment that you can use on wet or dry hair,
it is fairly light weight and in my experience was not overly sticky.
I do like the Berber Oil scent it reminds me of Cherry sweets!
Eldora Eyelashes
I received the design B159 which are fairly natural in length and feature a cross hatch design,
to be truthful I don't often wear false eyelashes as my own tend to be longer than most falsies
but the Eldora lashes seem to well constructed and do come with their own glue.
Perhaps on my next night out I shall pop these on ?
Apivita Express Beauty Cucumber Masks
I'm fairly familiar with Apivita after reviewing quite a few products from the Greek brand
on the whole I really do rate Apivita and enjoyed slapping on one of these cucumber masks last night.
I found it to be cooling, relaxing and hydrating perfect after a day in the sun...yes sun in Scotland
miracles do happen!
Lolita Lempicka Perfume Samples
I have to be truthful and say I don't enjoy receiving perfume samples,
I have yet to use or enjoy any that I have received in a sample box but that is just the way the cookie crumbles you can't possible enjoy everything!
Both scents are a little too strong and floral for my taste and oddly both remind of other fragrances
but neither I can put my finger on...hmm!
Glossybox Compact Mirror
Great sized duo mirror that is perfect for tucking into your handbag for on the go touch ups!
So that is what was inside my box this month, if you subscribe what did you get?

I wasn't impressed with my Glossy Box this month, not sure whether to unsubscribe because I just don't think it's worth it. I might try Jolie Box though that looks a bit better xx
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean I thought it would be a little more special than it was but on the whole I do like the products inside :)
DeleteApivita masks are amazing! I really like them.

wish i'd got the hair oil, but i guess that's the luck of the drawr, the contents of this month's box seems even more varied than usual!

I'm glad this posted helped you then :)
DeleteDefinite box envy with the oil! Otherwise we got the same except instead of the oil and masks, I got a gel liner and a moisturiser. Nice box this month but it did fall short of what I was expecting xo
ReplyDeleteI feel the same and I think it is the case of the grass is greener as i'd have rather had your box haha :)
DeleteI got exactly the same stuff but my hair oil had leaked so it was only about half full and the box was full of oil!!
ReplyDeleteDid Anyone else have this problem?
Xx
I've finally found somebody who received near enough the same samples as me! I'm really looking forward to using the Osmo Hair Oil!
