firstly, sorry for the hideous blackberry photo but i am at work, hence the awful carpet. my new subscription to beauty box began today and here's what i got: yes to cucumbers soothing on the go facial towelettes full size, australis paparazzi perfect eyeshadow in snap attack full size, agent provocateur eau emotionelle EDT sample, miessence sunflower body wash small bottle and nourishing hand cream sachet and avene ystheal creme anti aging treatment care for dry skin sample bottle. it all came in a little basket which is not cute, i prefer the glossybox packaging. it also came with a copy of just be magazine and if you stay with beauty basket for 3 months you get a full years subscription to it. did anyone else get this basket? what did you think of it? i will give it 3 boxes and see what it's like, as for glossy, well let's see how the next box goes...

glossybox four is in and it's a valentines day special - the box is neon pink (cute) and came with a roll of love heart candy (cuter). i got a full size australis colour inject lipgloss in bollywood, a 60ml proactiv deep cleansing wash, a carmex moisture plus lip balm, a star and rose floral wonderland emergency nail files pack and a full size lily loves pearl balance me sweet orange botanical toner. i guess it was kind of ok this time, not bad enough to make me leave not good enough to make me excited. on another note i have just signed up to another box and if they are really good i will make the switch.

ok, so third glossybox arrived, did it make the cut?
here's what i got: a nivea rich nourishing body moisturiser (travel size), sheer cover nourishing moisturiser spf 15+ (travel size), sheer cover lip gloss in pink praline (full size), estee lauder advanced night repair synchronised recovery complex (travel size), sally hansen insta dry fast dry nail colour in petal pusher (full size) and (drum roll)..........some australia day temporary tattoos. i am not joking and i nearly died when i saw them. why do it glossy box!?! anyway, it was a pretty good box, i will probably use all the products (especially those tattoos tomorrow - watch out)
despite these, i am staying for another box...

dear glossy box, i do not have frizzy hair and i am not a male, i also do not wear maroon lip liner, this is why i took the time to fill out your extensive beauty profile, so i wouldn't open my box to find hair fudge and frizz ease, rather, i would find product that actually related to my needs that YOU asked me about. i will give you another chance in case next time you redeem yourself.

so so excited about this new (well for me it's new) service called glossybox - it's basically a website you subscribe to that sends you a customised (you fill out a beauty profile) box filled with 5 small sized beauty products once a month for $14.95 per month. they only deal with brands like YSL, biotherm, marc jocobs fragrance, essie, clinique, jurlique, shu uemura and more so you know you aren't going to end up with a whole lot of junky product. apparently it's HUGE in the states and just getting started here so my guess it the products will just keep getting better the more people use it. i just signed up and can't wait to get my first glossybox which i will share with you as soon as it arrives. click here to see how it all works and thanks hannah for showing me!
