January Glossy Box!!!

Welcome Back To An Appetite For MakeUp,

So after a long long day at work yesterday, I got in to a parcel and I was so excited to open my 2nd  Glossy box but unlike last month where I was so pleased with what I got, this month I was left feeling slightly disappointed,

I opened it to receive quite alot of moisturising product and even though these types of products are essential for keeping your skin healthy they simply don't excite me.
And unfortunately for GlossyBox, looking through twitter and instagram, alot of people were disappointed too.



Anyway lets start with some positives, So I absolutely love The Vintage Cosmetic Company lashes so when I saw the full size tweezers in all there floral glory I was excited and they are really nice and easy to use too.
Really needed  a new pair too so what a find.

Also I was very intrigued with "Anatomical's Puffy the eye bag slayers", first of all what a name, and what a description, It was so funny with all its vampire content but what was important was the product.
I tried  the eye strips and I was so surprised they didn't sting my eyes because usually most under eye products do, I have extremely sensitive eyes so I am very careful about what I put on them; I have been in the market for some products to help combat under eye puffiness and dark circles so I was excited to try them.
So the instructions said to leave them on for 30 minutes but after my bath and little pamper session and put the eye strips on and they were really soothing so much so I fell to sleep.
I am most defiantly going to invest in these and cant wait to slot them in to my skin care routine.

The next product was two little "YU-BE Moisturising skin cream" which looked like something a doctor would prescribe rather than a luxurious moisturising brand but I have really chapped lips and the product worked wonders for my lips but it did sting a little so I wouldn't put it anywhere else on my skin.

And the finally two products were a little disappointing "Vaseline" essential moisture which smelt really nice but just wasn't exciting, and the next product was "Balance Me" super toning body wash, which I Haven't tried but I cant try because I am allergic to Lavender so I am going to pass that on to my sister.

Overall I wasn't as excited as I was to receive Decembers Box  but I am still looking forward to receiving February.
