September Glossybox 2012

It's that time again! Glossybox review time :) Honestly receiving my Glossybox has to be the favourite time of the month! It's the little things in life that count right???? :) Anyway on to the review!

This months box was a special edition box, which means no pink box this month, instead we received a really gorgeous one, which was designed by Maggie Li. It's so pretty that I will not be using it to store makeup as I don't want to get makeup all over it lol The theme of this months box was Rising Stars and you can see a picture of the box below.


Isn't it just gorgeous? 


 Ok, the first Product on my list is Lady Gaga Fame Fragrance.

This smells absolutely gorgeous, really lovely flowery scent, I had heard of it, but wasn't overly excited about trying it, but then I received this sample and I love it, I can see me spending some of my hard earned pounds on this :) You can buy this for £25 for 30ml, £32 for 50ml, and £61 for 100ml.

Next product is :
These are some 1ml sachets of Rodial Snake Serum and 5 minute facial, I have never heard of this brand until I received my box, but I'm willing to try anything new. The card is a little confusing on the price of the product lol but you can buy it here the price is £127 for 25ml. Now that's expensive!!!!!

Next up :)
The Balance Me Wonder Eye cream and Olay Wrinkle relaxing complex, we got 7ml of the Eye cream and full size is £20 for 15 ml, so lets say we got half of the original size which is a decent sample. Very pleased and I love Balance Me products :) The Olay product I will give it a try, I don't really think I have any noticeable wrinkles, except maybe a few fine lines around the eyes, which it may help with, so I will give it a shot.  The sample we got is again 7ml and the full size is £29.99 for 50ml.

Last but not least, the Pièce de résistance :
I was over the moon to see this in my Glossybox!!!!! I love mythic oil!!! I have tried this before when I got a free sample from whatsinmyhandbag, and it was fantastic!! I know this is Mythic Oil milk, but I am sure it will be just as fabulous!! AND! this is a full size product!! Yahoo! The price to buy would be £15.95 for 125ml, which is what we got!! Definitely can't complain :) 

This was also my free box, as I redeemed my dots for september, so this box was even more of a bonus for me! Thanks so much Glossybox, one very happy Gal today :)

As always thanks for visiting my little slice of the web, if you have any thoughts, comments or ramblings! Please do let me know. I will always reply :) Until next time.

Nutty about Lip Balm (and some hair treatment) :)

Hello Ladies, 

Considering the fantastic weather we've been having, I decided to pull on my sandals and get myself in to town for a little shopping(dragged the other half along of course) :) So after a little wander around in the gorgeous sun, here's what I came back with.



 These cute little pots of Lip Balms caught my eye in none other than Sports Direct!!! *shock*  *gasp* Now you may wonder why I was in said shop, the boyfriend wanted to take a look lol The scents I got were Blueberry, Strawberries & Milkshake, and Mango and Papaya! They all smell divine, especially the blueberry :) My boyfriend said it smelled like he wanted to eat it lol Now for the price!!! They retailed at the price of a pound each! Bargain!

Now that summer seems to be finally here, I decided to invest in some treatment for the hair, the one I got was ' Aussie ' Take The Heat, its also good to use before straightening, use after shampooing and Voila, apparently you will have hair that will ignite passion :) this product retails at 3.50 from superdrug.Last but not least was a powder blusher by Mua, I was unsure whether to buy this as the last product of theirs I bought I didn't much like, it was a gel eyeshadow which I found to be very clumpy :( shame as the colour was lovely. The blusher cost a pound also from superdrug.

Well, that's all ladies, please leave any comments below and thanks for reading :) xx
