GlossyBox Review: December 2011


What's inside December's GlossyBox:


 Such an exciting bunch of goodies in this month's Christmas box. Firstly though, let me just address the packaging. A limited edition bright red shiny box, white crinkly paper and a black ribbon - perfectly festive! We're so lucky to have top quality brands as well as full size products in this one, so let's delve inside and see what it includes:

1. Cargo Cosmetics Classic Lip Gloss in 'Morocco': Full size - £10.00 / Lip Gloss
2. Deborah Lippmann Nail Varnish in 'Razzle Dazzle' with 'Stripper To Go' remover sachet: Full size - £16.00 / Nail Varnish & £14.00 / Pack of 6 removers
3. FAB Face Cleanser: Full size - £13.00 / 141 grams
4. Nouveau Lashes Noir Mascara: Full size - £14.99 / 8 grams
5. Rituals Foaming Shower Gel: Full size - £6.50 / 200 ml

 

I was so, so excited to see a Deborah Lippmann nail polish in this box. I think it was deffinately the winning product inside. The shade is 'Razzle Dazzle' and let me just say, it's amazing! The most stunning deep dark cherry shade, jam packed with pink glitter! It's lovely and opaque and I actually have this on my toes at the moment. I haven't tried the nail varnish remove mitt yet but I've heard great things about these in the past.


The Rituals foaming shower gel smells sweet and floral, a lovely edition to your shower routine and something I can deffinately see myself using up rather quickly! Can't say I've tried the face cleanser yet but from reading the bottle, it promises good things.


The Nouveau lashes mascara has a stiff bristly brush, almost similar to L'Oreal Voluminous'. It seems pretty dark and not too dry but again, haven't tried this one out yet. However, I look forwards to wearing it in a future blog post.
The Cargo lip gloss is nice too, not incredibly opaque but gives a nice shimmer to the lips. I got a nice iridescent plum pink shade which looks natural on the lips, just adding a hint of gloss and super fine glitter.

I hope you enjoyed this months GlossyBox! Let me know your thoughts! :)
