Glossybox: October 2011

I'm sure you've all heard of Glossybox and if you haven't, you should be pleased to have now! I've stumbled across a few of these pay monthly boxes, but always been slightly dubious. After reading a few other blogs, I decided to get my first box, and it arrived a few days ago. It seems like a few people have decided to go for the October box, after seeing how AMAZING September's box was! The box only puts cult-brand products, which is why it's such a lovely treat!

For anyone who isn't familiar with what they are, basically, you buy a "box" for £10 (plus £2.95 p+p), and it gets delivered to your door with 5 or 6 travel sized products (but from reading other blogs, this usually isn't the case, and a few items are full-sized). The original version in the US called Birchbox is similar, I'm so glad to have something similar in the UK!

Here's what I got this month...:







I'm quite thrilled with it really. I haven't had chance to try the Dermalogica stuff out properly yet, but I've got the nail polish on at the moment and it's amazing. I'm really pleased because it seems that on other peoples blogs, the Leighton Denny nail polish people received was a slightly metallic blue - but I love the candyfloss pink. Really thick, only needed one coat! Theres tonnes of really pretty colours on the website, so check them out! I'm wearing the STILA Smudgestick tonight, it's like a mossygreen colour, I'm pairing it with a plum coloured dress from Topshop and black heels. I've swatched it on my hand this morning, tried to take a picture but for some reason my camera wasn't focusing, and It's stayed on all this time! Passed the time test anyway!

Just a quick post, but I definitely recommend to get the box. I know it seems like a lot over a whole year, but it's a nice little treat once a month. Almost like Christmas.. every month haha!
