January 2017 Glossybox

I actually received my January Glossybox a few days ago, but I fell quite ill and so have been unable to write about it until now. This months box was a collaboration with Deliciously Stella and has been dubbed The Edible Edit, which initially made me very excited because I thought that it was full of yummy treats. I was mistaken. However the treats that it is filled with are just as yummy for your skin, so I'm far from being disappointed.

DO NOT SCROLL ANY FURTHER IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY SPOILERS!!!


The majority of this box is based on skin-care which I've got to say, I'm usually really lazy about. It normally just seems overpriced for not very much, but I am trying a little harder at the moment to pay a little more attention to my skin, and to give it a bit of love. This box should really help me with this and I am very excited about it!

First of all, this Manuka Honey face mask. I always love the face masks that I get through Glossybox, I find that they're always super luxurious and make for some hilarious mug shots to send to people. Honey and honeycomb is also one of my very favourite scents, so I am very excited to try this on my next pamper evening!

Next is possibly the product that I'm most excited about, but I love it all so I don't really know! It is this Illuminate Milk Cleanser. I actually have a bit of a confession to make - I've never used a cleanser before. I have wanted to try one for ages and this one sounds amazing as well as smelling amazing! I like the fact that it is quite a subtle scent, not too overpowering because I can often find that quite off putting. My only concern is that I have quite oily skin and I think that this may work better for dry skin, but we'll just have to wait and see!
The next product is the only makeup product in the box and its this Meet Matt(e) Trimony Single Eyeshadow. Although this is possibly the smallest amount of eyeshadow that I have ever seen, it's absolutely beautiful. I'm trying to incorporate more colour into my eyeshadow looks and I think that this is a good place to start. To me, this is quite an autumnal shade, because it is quite reddy toned, but I'm probably just going to wear it anyway because it is beautiful!

The next thing is another that I am very very excited about, and is this Kale Fix Moisturiser by Nip and Fab. I know that this is meant to be a very good brand, although I have never bought anything from them before. It is meant to protect against external aggressors from pollution to stress, which believe me, would have been very useful during the exams last week! It smells very leafy and healthy which you would expect from kale, so hopefully it is going to make me so healthy, I'll finally become an untouchable unicorn...

Lastly, I received this Konjac Sponge. I have never used anything like this before, but from what I understand, it is a bit like a cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising, hydrating sponge that's amazing for the environment. If this works, this could be the salvation to the worlds skincare and environmental problems and I am very excited about that. Watch this space mother nature.

I absolutely love this Glossybox, I think that it might actually be one of my favourites so far, although I shouldn't say that because I've loved them all. I recommend Glossybox to everyone, its such a nice treat and a great way to try loads of new brands and products!

See you soon!
