December Glossy Box

So Glossybox have been running a promotion after Christmas to get the December Glossybox if you start a subscription. I have been wanting to subscribe to Glossybox for a while after reading lots of blogs about what people have been having in them over the past few months and after seeing some of the contents of the december box I thought I would go for it. I was very excited when my box arrived on thursday.
My Box contained:
  • Nip and Fab Spot Fix - This retails for £9.95 and this one is the full 15ml size. I have been using this the past few days and can say I can see the difference. It feels quite nice on my skin and rubs in well without feeling greasy.
  • Rituals Foaming Shower Gel -This shower gel retails for £6.50 and I had seen quite a lot of boxes which contained the pink shower gel so I was pleasently surprised when mine was brown. I used this the other day in the shower and it smells lovely. Its probably not for everyone but I really liked it. At £6.50 I am not sure I would buy it at full price as I think its a lot to pay but its certainly nice.
  • Blink and Go Eyeshadow and Blush Palette -This palette retails for £14.95. I hadnt seen any boxes with the palette in (most had got the mascara in instead). I havent used any of the colours yet but I may do a swatch of it soon. I do like the packet that it comes in with the eye shadow on the top and then the blusher underneath. And it just generally looks quite pretty.
  • Cargo Cosmetics Classic Lip Gloss -A full sized tube of this gloss is £10. I am totally in love with Soap and Glory's sexy mother pucker but this is quite a nice shade and is a nice small size so you could fit it into a small bag if you were going on a night out.
  • Deborah Lippmann Razzle Dazzle Nail Varnish -This is one of the products that when I had been reading about the December Glossybox - this is what I was looking forward to trying - you know my love for glitter nail polish. I will do a seperate nail post about this but it is lush. It retails for £16 for a full sized one.
  • Deborah Lippman Stripped to Go Sachet - This pack contained one of the sachets and it said that it would remove 10 nails. It retails for £14 for a pack of 6. I am going to do a seperate blog post about this as I used it on thursday night.
Overall I am impressed with the Glossybox and cant wait for the January one to arrive!
