ELF Haul

Gotta love ELF especially when they do their amazing offers.  I got a few things from their 40% off earlier in the week. I updated a haul video earlier if you want to take a look...

I'm looking forward to trying out the Makeup Lock and Seal!

Glossybox November 2011

So I received my November Glossybox... My first impressions was where is the make up?! I do like make up and in most of the boxes you do get at least 1 make up product.  I think this months make up product  are the nail wraps.  Ok they are ok and are normally £6 but they are not something I would go out and buy.

I am very impressed by the FULL SIZE moisturiser I got from Monu - a brand I have never heard of.  At first I was put off by the geranium scent. After applying it however it is amazing.  It has a waxy texture if that makes sense and absorbs into you skin and seems to lock in the moisture.  I have been using it the last few days and love it.

The remaining products are so so.  The perfume sample is nice but maybe a bit strong for me.  The bath salts and hand cream are good and will be used.

I unfortunately seen post regarding this box on Facebook before I opened mine which I think dampened my spirits a bit. Next monthI will wait til I open mine before watching or reading reviews.

At the end of the day it is a sample box and for £10 plus postage you will always get your money's worth.  Its really just the excitement of getting a lovely wrapped package with a surprise inside that does it for me.

Anyway here is my review from Youtube for this months box...
