Glossy box january 2016


Glossy box january 2016


As you all seemed to have liked the december version of this post I thought that I would go through what product's are included in this month's glossy box. I haven't actually tried any of these products as I haven't had a chance but I might do separate review of each of them depending on whether or not I like them. 



Like last month as I think every month you received 5 products some are full size and some are luxury sample size.  




Starting with a glossybox eyeshadow in mauve. This looks different colours in different lights because in the picture it looks quite lilac/ purple however when seeing it in real life it looks more brown. This is a full size product and retails for £7.10

The next full size product is a emite powder blush in the shade 108. This I would use as a blush/contour as it's the right kind of shade for my skin.  This retails for £20.50 and you can get it from emitemakeup.com. Personally I wouldn't pay that much for this product because I feel you can get a higher quality product for similar pricing such as the mac blushes.


The last make-up product is from a brand called Teeez cosmetics and this is there oasis gem lipstick in the shade coral onyx. I haven't actually tried this yet but from swatching it, it's just the right amount of pick in their as well. You can get this from teeezcosmetics.com for £11.93. I also really love the packaging. 



Moving onto skincare you get two product's one as a full size and the other is luxury sample size. This is the miracle cellular repair serum and it's meant to be for boosting radiance and hydration. This is full size £38 which I'm not sure I would pay but I haven't tried it yet so it might do wonder's for my skin.









The last product is also a full size and it's the Unani dermo defence face mask which is meant to care for your skin and help it protected. I will get back to you on this one because it seems a really interesting product and I want to know if it actually work's. This retails for £11.36 so if it does work then it's a really good alternative to some of the expensive face mask's.

Always remember where we came from

Over the past couple of months I feel that my body has let me down in many ways. It made me ill out of blue which meant I had to build myself up again which I wasn't planning to do. However after doing this I've know realised what's important, after having this blog for nearly 6 years and posting about beauty and my story it's important to remember why I do what I do. I was at a family event yesterday, and after speaking to one of my relatives who actually reads this blog, I suddenly realised that I've kind of lost touch with why I do, what I do. My story is unique and I am very lucky to have a physical condition but still be able to do what I love. That's partly why I set this up in the first place, is to show that even through you have something that could potentially hold you back that doesn't mean that it should. Having cerebral palsy and epilepsy has had it challenges for sure, however it also shown me the strength I have. I think in the day and age...

The Evolution of my beauty habits

Image
So for a while now I've been meaning to get on the blogging band wagon but have been unsure how to as it's been quite a while. So I was going to do a favourites to explain what I have been using these past few months, however instead I thought I would talk about something that has been apparent to a lot of people and has been issue with quite a few friends of mine as well. Over the past few years the online beauty community has grown and grown. This is partly because anyone can set up a blog as long as you've got some sort of camera and access to the internet then you set up a blog. However with this growth means there are more and more people talking or writing about things that they have enjoyed or not. Depending on how many followers that person has can depend on how far that information travelled. This is partly how we get "hype up" products because the more and more people that talk about this one product mean the more and people who then want to go buy...

An alternative to the tangleteezer....

Image
I've heard so many people talk about how much they love the Tangleteezer. So being a blogger I knew I needed to try it out. After trying it I didn't really get on with it. I understand the shape of it, is meant to fit nicely into your hand and make it easy to brush you hair. However I just found it really hard to grip to actually brush my hair.  So following this if you saw my post on friday you will know that I opened the Look Fantastic box for this month. Within this was the wet brush and after using it for a couple of days I find it so much easier to use. I think because it's an actual hairbrush but at the same glides through wet hair getting out any knots. You can get it from http://www.lookfantastic.com/brands/wet-brush.list  and it comes in all kinds of colours and designs. There is also a comb, paddle brush and a round brush within the range. I would really recommend this brand if you're looking for something to get out knots from wet hair.  The on...
