Loving the April Glossybox right now!
I'm a big fan of the whole natural and organic theme of the box, and I can say I like 4 out of 5 products, but number one must be the Figs and Rouge balm because it smells divine and is a million times better than Vaseline.
Caudalie SOS Thirst Quenching serum, which for me just didn't live up to the hype I've been reading about. It's just a smooth, hydrating gel that seems to soak in pretty quick, but that's about it. Also, there was pretty much nothing in the tube so it didn't last long at all. Yes, it's nice, but it's not that special. Sorry :(
This is the product that I really disliked this month. It's Kai perfume oil, which is extremely floral scented, just like lily or gardenia. I tried it on my wrist as soon as I opened the box but I immediately regretted that. On me, the scent was so strong and I couldn't get the smell off my skin fast enough. I smelt like a florist. :( Sadly, this won't be used by me, which seems like a waste but I'm sure someone else will enjoy it.
As I mentioned above, this is numero uno this month! I received 'Rambling Rose' which is great because I loooooove rose scented things. The fact that this contains no petroleum is a massive tick for me, as I find Vaseline and other petroleum based lip products too greasy and it just does not absorb. However, this little beauty has been going everywhere with me and constantly on my lips. My only gripe is that it melts quite quickly if it's in your pocket (or tucked in my bra at work) so it's gone all over the inside of the lid. That's my fault though. I can safely say I will be repurchasing this baby when I run out. 10 billion stars out of 10.
I really like receiving shower gels in boxes and as samples, because my mum buys the same boring ones over and over again. It's nice to have 'my' shower gels and this is lovely. I'm still working my way through a massive "Foam Call" by Soap and Glory so this is being saved for when I've finished that. Sandalwood is a lovely scent so I'm happy I received this one. I'm allergic to eating coconut so I'm not sure what my skin would do with a coconut shower gel.
Inika eye pencil in 'Coco'- This pencil is lovely to use and the formula is sooo creamy. It's much better when used on the eyelid rather than the waterline, which is fine because I normally use a brown above my lashes anyway because black looks a bit harsh. I'm glad I received the coco brown shade because I really wouldn't suit purple and I already own a metallic turquoise. The colour is really dark so I put a very small amount on and smudge until it's blended.
Overall, I'm really pleased with this months Glossybox and really like 3 out of 5 products.
