Birthday treats

It was my birthday yesterday and one of my best presents has to be a subscription to Glossy Box.

Glossy Box sends you a box a month filled with goodies.

These can be anything from full sized beauty items to samples of more expensive items.

The box was beautifully packaged with ribbon and tissue paper.

A glossy box subscription is the perfect gift for someone in my eyes, receiving a new box every month is so exciting! 

I have included a close up photo of the first items I received and some details and my thoughts on the products...

In my first box I received an Océane makeup remover pen, a Jelly Pong Pong 2 in 1 eyeliner and eye shadow pencil, TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Conditioner, Urban Veda Purifying Day Cream and Emite Makeup Eyelash Curlers. It was called the 'High Flyers Box' due to it containing products from around the world.

Everything in this box I'm willing to give a try after all you can never have too many eyeliners and moisturisers?

The conditioner should come in handy too, due to my bleached ends needing a bit of love and attention.

The eyelash curlers are one that may win me over, I used to curl my eyelashes but never really notice a difference so we shall have to see if some sturdy professional ones will do the trick.

And finally the makeup remover pen...this I like the idea of, cutting out the use of cotton buds to remove mascara that’s managed to get everywhere etc., the only problem is will it take off my foundation at the same time? As a white patchy face is not the look I'm going for, I'll have to let you know...
