July Glossybox - First ever Glossybox!!

This is my first ever glossybox and I wasnt let down. I have heard so much about glossybox and I wanted it for over a year(when it first started). When I successfully got a job, I thought I might as well sign up to Glossybox. Anyway lets get on with what was inside the glossybox.

But first off, I love the packaging. I love the parcel box because its black with their logo in pink (love). The box with the samples in is just beautiful. I love that the box is a light pale pink with their black logo in the middle. I can use these boxes as storage boxes.

When I opened up the box. I saw black tissue paper with a pink ribbon on top. They really do go into detail and care about the presentation which is good. When I opened up the tissue paper, I saw the following samples/products.

The first one that caught my eye was the Elizabeth Arden samples. These are three small skincare samples and they are visible difference skin balancing exfoliant equilibrant, optimizing skin serum and skin balancing lotion with SPF 15. These are all 2ml samples, so there is quite a lot of product all together.

The next one is Collin resultime gel collagene regenerant. I think this is an anti aging product, so I wont really need much use out of this one since I am still quite young and dont need to start on anti aging products just yet. Dont really know what its meant to do, so its quite a blah sort of product.

Monu is the next product and its an extra rich night cream. At first, I thought this was a anti aging products, but as I was looking at the july glossybox videos on youtube, I noticed that some people used it at my age. This product is for anyone who has very dry skin. I did have very dry skin couple of weeks ago since I had a reaction to a skincare product I used. This would of been perfect for that time but I can still use it because sometimes my skin can go quite dry. Cant wait to try this one out.

The next one is by Paul Mitchell and its the awapuhi texturizing sea spray. At first, I did not notice that this was by Paul Mitchell. I thought the brand was awaphui and never heard of that company before. This product is perfect for the summer and perfect to create beach looking hair. Might have to try this product when the weather brightens up in the UK.

The second to last one is by Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics. I have heard of this company but never purchased any products from them, so it was quite interesting receiving a product from the company. This product is a lip frosting and can be used as a blush on the cheeks. The smell is just amazing and smells like sweets and very sweet smell to it which I love. The colour is a bright pink with a shimmer too it. I love the smell and love this product.

The last product is by kryolan and this is a satin powder. This is a micro fine powder which will create a nice shimmer effect for eye make-up. I love this product since I love shimmery and sparkly products and its full size. Its a nice pink/coral colour which is perfect for the summer. Hands down winner for me.

Overall the Julys Glossybox and my first ever Glossybox was quite good and hopefully will carry on with Glossybox. I love the idea of trying new products and trying products from companys I have never heard of. This will make my make-up range a lot broader rather than sticking to the drugstore brands.
