Glossybox November 2012

Only a couple of months behind with my Glossyboxes now :)

The November box is filled with popular brands like Nails Inc and Burberry but also some newcomers like Alison Claire. Part of the reason I like getting these boxes is that i can try out new brands.

Here's what I recieved:

• Ayuuri - Sandalwood Face Cream/Indian Rose Face Cream
• Burberry - Burberry Body Eau De Parfum
• Alison Claire Natural Beauty - Mango Body Butter
• Nails Inc - Kensington Caviar Top Coat/Porchester Square/Notting Hill Gate
• Dermalogica - Daily Microfoliant

Ayuuri - Sandalwood Face Cream/Indian Rose Face Cream

Beauty card: These ayurvedic face creams moisturise your skin without leaving it feeling greasy.The sandalwood cream has Sandalwood Oil, Olive Oil and nourishing Aloe Vera extracts. The beautifully fragrant Indian Rose cream contains Jasmine and Aloe Vera to keep the skin moist and protect it from ageing elements.

In my box I received the Sandalwood Face Cream but I would have preferred the Indian Rose Face Cream as I'm not keen on the smell of Sandalwood. Other than the smell it does feel ice to put on and it was very moisturising. Luckily my mum likes this so I'm giving the rest to her.

Burberry - Burberry Body Eau De Parfum

Beauty card: An effortlessly sensual, feminine fragrance with an eclectic combination of green absinthe, rose and cashmeran.

I'm not keen on this product either, I'm not doing too well out of this box at the moment. The bottle is quite nice but the smell is a bit musky which isn't my taste in perfume.

Alison Claire Natural Beauty - Mango Body Butter

Beauty card: A delicious blend of organic mango and cocoa butters will leave your skin feeling wonderful.

Now, this product I like. Alison Claire is a fairly new brand and all their products use natural ingredients.

The product is quite thick and it made my skin feel really soft and smooth after, I love the smell of it too. My skin is a bit dry so this is really good for me as it's very moisturising. I would definitely recommend this unless your not keen on the smell of mango. They also do a Vanilla and Coconut Body Butter which I think I'll love too, I may have to try that at some point.

Nails Inc - Kensington Caviar Top Coat/Porchester Square/Notting Hill Gate

Beauty card: 3 Nails Inc best sellers including traffic stopping brights and the award winning Caviar top coat.

In my box I received the Kensington Caviar Top Coat. I've heard about this and it's supposedly very quick drying in about 45 seconds and it leaves your nails looking super glossy. I'm very impressed with this, it does dry very quickly and my nails looked really shiny. It's a shame it's only a little bottle so it's not going to last very long then I may have to buy one myself.

Dermalogica - Daily Microfoliant

Beauty card: A unique rice-based powder that gently exfoliates skin, leaving it noticeably smoother & brighter.

I think the packaging on this is a little boring and I wouldn't have bought this just by looking at it. It has a nice smell to it, a bit fruity and citrusy. After using this my face felt really clean and my skin was really smooth.

So 3 out of 5 products isn't bad, not one of my favourite boxes so far though.

Have a good day.
