Glossybox August 2013

This months glossybox theme is High Flyers which is basically products from different countries around the world. As always it comes in the light pink box with black tissue paper apart from the special glossyboxes that gets released now and then. There are five products from around the world in this box.

The first product is by Emite Make up and the product is eyelash curlers. I actually dont own any eyelash curlers at the moment but I used to, so I am happy that I now have eyelash curlers in my makeup bag. Emite makeup is from the country of Sweden and these eyelash curlers actually costs £20 which is very pricy I think for curlers. Anyway this first product covers the cost of the box (£12.99), so pretty amazing to start of with.

The second product is by a perfume brand Juicy Couture and the perfume I have is Viva La Juicy Noir. I don't know if this is a brand new perfume but it smells really nice. This perfume has highlights of succulent ripe berry notes and gourmand accents, while adding a juicy touch of honeysuckle and a sultry hint of sandalwood. The full size of this product (100ml) comes in at £63.

The third product is by a well known brand Philosophy and I know this is very popular in the US, so I am very excited to try one of their products. I have the 3-1 cleanser and this product is apparently an award winning daily cleanser which is even more brilliant. They claim that this cleanses the skin and melts away all the makeup and can even be used to take off eye makeup. Its fragrance free and can be used for all skin types including sensitive skin. This product I am interested in because I am always trying to find different ways to take off my makeup and which product is the best. The full size for this cleanser is 240ml for £17.50 or 480ml for £28.50.

The fourth product is from the UK and it is the British brand Jelly Pong Pong which I don't think really represents British makeup brands since their products are not available in shops but online. I have had quite few products off theirs in past glossyboxes and some were good and some were bad, so I wasn't that impressed when I saw this 2-1 shadow/liner. It would have been perfect if it was in the colour black since I would be able to use it as eyeliner but the colour I have is a pink and I don't think I would actually use this because I don't wear pink eyeliner or pink shadow, so basically I have no use for this product in my collection. Also this is a full size product worth £10.50.

The fifth and last product is by Oceane and it comes from Brazil. I think this is another great product and it is a makeup remover pen. I have always wanted to try the simple version but I never got round to buying it, so I am sooo happy I have one in this months glossybox. As by the title, it is a makeup remover pen, so any little mistakes can easily be wiped away. This product also contains 3 refills when the original refill is full of makeup. Oceane are not actually available in the UK at the moment and glossybox has not put a price of this product but I am pretty sure it is a full size product.

Overall I am pretty pleased with this months glossybox and there are three full size products out of 5 which is not bad going.
