The Glossybox* March box have started to arrive and this month is all about being City Chic. Inspired for women that need to go from the boardroom to the barstool, easily maintained look while great. There is a City Guide included with tips for your next weekend get away, with stickers too, must say I didn't pay too much attention to that - I never go anywhere for the weekend. So what is included within this box?
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant - fragrance free // full size 50ml for £25: I have previously reviewed this product already. Albeit it wasn't the fragrance free cream but you can read my review on this here. It is a cult product for some but the smell of this can be very off putting for some.
Renu Flash Relax Mask // full size 100ml for £32: Flash relax mask should give an instant radiance effect, helping giving a boost to your skin. Ginseng and magnesium relax fine lines, while the vitamins C & B5 enhance natural radiance all the while promoting the skin's moisture balance. It's paraben free which is great for those against ben and have sensitive skin. I may try this over the weekend.
L'Occitane Brightening Hand Care SPF15 // full size £19 for 75ml: The aim of this hand cream is that it firms, smoothes, reduces age spots and protects against UV damage. It's a non-oily texture that works good on clean hands and massaged into dry areas of your hands, between the finger and knuckles are key areas of dryness.
Pearlys Weekly Teeth Brighten Powder // full size 30g f0r £15: Use in replacement of your regular toothpaste once or twice a week. They suggest you use this in conjunction with other Pearly Whitening products to get best results. My mum likes all these teeth whitening products, so I've passed this onto her. I have been using BlanX which I'm seeing fantastic results with.
Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics - Lip Blush, Lip Stain // full size £12: I was very happy to see Jelly Pong Pong in the box again, the cosmetics had been included in a previous box last year and I loved the smell it gave, mm so sweet. This time it's a lip stain. A lovely red, that of course doesn't last throughout the day but it is a nice shade. I'm enjoying lip pencils lately so this was right up my street. Due to it's smooth texture which must be the beeswax and ceresin wax in the ingredients it doesn't feel drying on the lips - bonus.
Overall thoughts : Besides the chance to have a sample sized 8 hour cream and another Jelly pong pong, it wasn't that great of a box. I do think Glossybox need to re-evaluate their boxes compared to others that are on the market. Once in a while I get blown away by a box but I would prefer it to be a monthly feeling.
