Boudoir Prive


Boudoir Prive 
I was one if the lucky ones to get my hands on the new limited edition box.I was happy with what was inside my box, most of the brands I hadn't really heard much about which is nice that I didn't have any false hopes for  any of the products.
 Compare Time!  
 Glossy Box vs Boudoir Prive

The box was different in the Boudoir Prive box was a slight different shade of pink and had a magnetic lid.The inside packaging was the same tissue paper in black and the same black crinkled cut shredded paper. The sticker in the same place just different logo! With glossy box not everybody gets the same products which is a bit unfair I think, but with Boudoir Prive everybody gets the same contents in each box which I think this is fairer.  
What was in my Boudoir Prive 
Two fragrance samples from Etat Libre D'Orange & Archives 69 and Rien Jane Iredale PureLash Extender and Conditioner mini Two samples of tea from Bloom: Green Tea & White Tea. Sachajuan conditioner 100 ml
Olavie Antioxidant Body Butter sampleBabor HSR Lifting Extra Firming CreamFro I have tried all product's and  i am very impressed with them I now have longer healthier eyelashes and really soft hair, to go with my baby smooth skin and non puffy eyes however I do not like the perfumes they are far to sweet for my liking.

Nude on Nude vs Naked

So let the battle commence!!

Naked palette urban decay
I was so happy when I got this pallet I had seen loads of videos, blogs, pictures, advertisements about it. So I got hold of a pallet. I started using it straight away I was quiet disappointed  there are only two mattes out of the 12 eye shadows the rest are either glitter or shimmer. I like my matte's I think that they look nice with a hint of shimmer. I hate the glitter eyeshadow i.e. Half Baked and Sidecar it goes every where and doesn't stay on my eyes that long even with the great prime potion that comes in the pallet. I like that it is compact and it would be good for a holiday but I do not like the contents of this pallet  
So this purchase was a great disappoint to me.  
Nude on Nude pallet NYX
Wear do I start I love this pallet it has 20 eye shadows and loads of mattes, slight shimmers. All the colors are wearable for day and night and it also includes 10 lip colors which are also very wearable but some are slightly sheer but that's good if you just want a hint of color. I think on my holiday I will be taking this. The eye shadows all apply very well and high in pigment.

July Glossy Box


Well, this Glossy Box  was so much better than last months Box wasn't it? I was really happy with my Glossy Box however my box got lost in the post hints why this is really late sorry.

So when it was lost in the post it was really hard to not read any blogs or watch any You Tube videos about it and on Glossy Box’s Facebook page People were listing what they had but anyway I managed to hide it from myself. 
When it finally arrived I was very impressed with what I got, not having anything from Illamasqua I was very happy with my pigment which was in the color Tingle this is really nice hilighter.

 The other product’s were xen-tan. I don't like this because it was in the color dark and with me being very pale doesn't really work and it stinks like biscuits therefore I think that this was my least favorite product.
 I also loved the other products Ciate paint pots in the color Big yellow taxi this has a lovely brush, however I don't like the color on me. I think unless you have perfect nails (not me) you can were this. But it did save me buying it and being disappointed, This was the hole point of Glossy box so it did well there.
The other two product were oils the Weleda Pomegranate oil and the Inlight organic face oil. 
I love the pomegranate oil after having a shower you rub it in to damp skin and it just leaves it really soft but not oily. 
I haven't tried the face oil it smells herbal but haven't got the guts to try it just in case!! I am always a bit weary of putting lotion and potions on my face after suffering several reaction in the past along with acne.

So to round off the July glossy box I was pleasantly surprised lets see what next months brings!
