February 2014 GlossyBox - The Valentine's Love Edition
The February GlossyBox 2014 has a rather fabulous Valentine's Day inspired kisses design which is great fun and one to keep.
The theme of the box I am not entirely sure about, it may be Love it may be indulgent treats. It wasn't completely clear but there were a few things to enjoy in my box as it happens. I think that these could have been used for a Valentine's Day look but unfortunately mine arrived the day after!
So what was inside my February GlossyBox
The 5 items
Nougat London Sparkling Body Shimmer in Cherry Blossom 100ml (full size 250ml £14)
This body lotion smells amazing, it contains mallow extract, vitamin E and wheatgerm enriched oil and comes with a hint of shimmer. I am looking forward to using this on my decolletage and legs!
Nougat London is a new brand for me to discover so I was pleased to see this in the box.
Maybelline New York Master Kajal Kohl Liner in Pitch Black £5.99
This is a cream stick eye liner and it applies like a dream with a nice and rich, intense black shade. I cannot wait to try this on my eyes. Can be used to line eyes and create bolder looks too.
Ciate London Paint Pot in shade Raspberry Collins £9 for 13.5ml
I am a fan of the Ciate formula but am not overly keen on hot pink shades which Rasberry Collins is so will be passing this on to my sister (lucky her!)
Eldora Eyelashes £3.90
I don't wear false lashes so will be passing these on.
Toni & Guy Hair Meets Wardrobe Stick It Up Gum £7.20 90ml
This hair product from top brand Toni & Guy claims to hold and control for a gravity style with a high shine finish. Glossybox says this product is good for flyaways. I may just give it a go for that as I rarely wear my hair up in a ponytail or require extra volume ;-)
A bonus chocolate treat from Lindt was included, the Lindor Treat Bar was devoured almost immediately upon opening the Glossybox! A gorgeously smooth chocolate with a lovely soft filling. Delicious and worth 79p.
Final thoughts
Value wise this was a brilliant box with 4 out of 5 of my items full size. On a personal level however in terms of items I would use there are probably 2 that I am looking forward to using, 2 that I will be passing on to others and one I am a little undecided on its suitability for me.
