May Glossy Box.


Computer cookies are very cleaver they really know what people like and they certainly got me with this, i was drawn to glossy box like a moth to a flame. I can not resist new and beautiful cosmetics and this months was a delight.  
This is the May glossy box its a couple of days late due to only applying for the box near the end of the month, so you might have already read many reviews on this box.
The packaging is very dainty and cute, the items are dressed in glossy box branded tissue paper celebrating there 2nd birthday, tied in pretty pink bow.



  My favorite item of the box was the "Jelly pong pong, Fairy Lashes Mascara" mainly because it was full size but also because its the best mascara iv used yet. I usually wear max factor mascara which when using has to much product on the applicator and makes your eyelashes look clumpy, it also has a charcoal feel about it. However jelly pong pong mascara is like a gel, the applicator is easy to use and its simple to remove just kinda peels off. 
The retail price for this item is £15 which is at the higher end for mascaras but i would defiantly buy it again, its fantastic.
  
The next product in the box was Roger & Gallet shower cream, body lotion and fragrance. I'm not a big fan of sachets there's always to much for one shower but never enough for two. But never the less the products were delightful i felt like i was bathing in Mediterranean blossom flowers, the smell is very indulgent and it lasted all day i even got complemented on the perfume. This is perfect for the summer time i think everyone should wear a fruity perfumes.
Retail price for the perfume is £32, £13 for the body lotion and £9 for the shower cream.

This little beauty was a god send since discovering primers iv have gone through my fare share of them and so far iv really enjoyed this brand. It leaves a lovely light dewy texture on the skin making it easier to apply foundation, it also last all day. There is a slight scent of aloe vera which is really nice; another big plus is that its vegan friendly which i love, allergy friendly so the sensitive of skins can use it, great for me and its 100% natural. You cant go wrong with this product its ticking all the right boxes, however the price tag. Retail price is £27.50 for 30ml but if your searching for the perfect primer this is the one. Check out there website they accompany different skin types too. This is the star product from Mays Glossy Box.

 This was my least favorite item in the box, the colour was pretty dull so i checked out there website to see if they had some funky ones i was very disappointed, they have a limited collection of colours and costing £9 i would not buy nail polish from headline colors. Iv seen better in Topshop. However it went on very easy and dried quickly, if your interested in the polish its called Spotlight.


This tiny little sample is Beautiful Movements cosmetics primer and create mixing medium. Iv not really had the opportunity to use this as iv been engrossed with Premae Harmony primer, so as soon as i use it I will up date you. But check out there website they have various of cosmetics.
The retail price for the product it £20 for 20g 


Last but no mean least is the personal touch of the mini nail file added Glossy box, this is very handy as iv got a habit of losing nail file and clippers.
