Pearls & Poison

For those of you who don't know what Glossybox is, it's a monthly subscription box filled with 5 beauty goodies, sometimes 6 if your lucky! Ive been subscribed for two years almost and it can be a hit and miss but most of the time i find a little gem in their somewhere! It can be filled with a mixture of drugstore/high street to well known brands such as Caudalie, Kiels etc.
For first timers it is great to test out new products on the market!

As its Winter i expected a lot of moisturising products, skin treatments etc etc etc to y'know, moisturise our skin, but i was surprised, in a good way,  when i only found one moisture related product!

Firstly, the box!


This month the box was a lovely red box filled with red tissue paper with candy canes, how festive!

But more importantly, what came inside the box is even better! Almost like a package from the North Pole..







1. Maybelline New York - Volum' Express Colossal Smokey Eyes Mascara 
This mascara contains collagen and kohl effect pigments it really gives your eyelashes a lift and gives definition to your eyes. Only bad thing i find with this mascara is that it can dry out easily and sometimes can appear clumpy on the lashes.



2. Beautiful Movements Cosmetics - Nude lips Gloss
Every girl needs a bitta nude in her life and this is the perfect size, perfect buy. This Jojoba rich, non sticky lip gloss is a necessity for this time of year.


3. Bee Nature - Bee Nature Soap
Oh the sweet smells of honey! Soft, soothing and smelly, the good kind, and it even exfoliates your dry winter skin, what more could you want!




4. Yin Yang Skincare - Rich Skin Food
Okay so when i seen food i didn't expect to get something i couldn't eat so as you can expect i was slightly disappointed.This moisturiser nourishes and repairs fine, sensitive skin.



5. Rituals - Miracle Balm
This is an odd hand cream in my opinion since its a balm not a cream so its a lot thicker than a cream and leaves a slight sticky texture on your hands, but it has a gorgeous floral smell and locks in moisture all day long!

Have a look at Glossybox to find out more about these products and more about the box itself!

Hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas and New Year, here's to 2014 and all the glamour it will bring!

Stay Stylish
