Glossybox - September

My Glossybox from october arrived several days ago, I will be posting Glossyboy - October very soon! But this post will be on that from the past month theehee.! If you don't know what "Glossybox" is, go check out THIS post. 

Now, what did I found in my Glossybox? :)

This time the box was green instead of pink. 

There was gift card inside. I get a 7,50 euro discount, only if I purchase stuff with a price over 40 euro's.

I'm still loving how it is packed in for you<3. 


And now for the products....

First product: CLINIQUE - HIGH IMPACT MASCARA
Translation: In seconds you can create long and voluminous lashes with this High Impact Mascara. Number ONE from Clinique. The texture provides a rich and intensive color, what will make your look irresistible. 
My opinion: I don't like it that much. I used it once and then gave it to my mom, lol. It is not what I am used to.

Second product: CAUDALIE - S.O.S. THIRST QUENSING SERUM
Translation: A hydrating bubble: This serum hydrates and restores the skin. After using your skin should feel soft and fresh.
My opinion: The first time i tried it, it felt quite good on my skin, but it did not really make a difference for me. It did't really felt like it hydrated my skin.

Third product: BROAER - VITAL OIL

Yes, yes I know what you are thinking. "What the hell have you done with that bottle?" - I broke it T__T.... It was early in the morning before I had to leave for school. I was in a hurry and it flooped out of my hand and shattered on the floor *SadFace*. Luckily I could still use what was not mixed up with glass. 

Translation: A multifunctional oil for every hair-type, hands and body. A combination of 5 oils from 5 different continents (argan-, jojoba, olive-, macadamia-, and soja oil.) will hydrate, feed, restore and give a gorgeous shimmer.
My opinion: I LOVE THIS! It smelled nice and it did his job. It really worked for my hair. I have curls and this stuff tamed my frizzy hair immediately.   

Fourth product: ROBERTO CAVALLI - EAU DE PARFUM (sorry for the bad picture)
Translation: Roberto Cavalli belongs to the flower and amber scent-family. It's a exuberant and sunny odor which leaves a authentic, strong character. It's lively and sensual, stimulating and hypnotizing at first contact
My opinion: I think it smells nice. Not a scents that I would pick out to use, but I would mind to get this as a present or something, haha. It's almost like an unisex scents.

Fifth product: JIL SANDER - SUN, EAU DE TOILETTE
Translation: The classic, timeless SUN odor immediately gives you a happy, summer feeling. A feeling of energy, vitality and warmth that is created by the scents of flowery/ amber-ish nuts. This can be used during sunbathing without discoloration of the skin.
My opinion: I like Roberto Cavalli better. Not that this one is bad, I like this smell too. Either way, I'm more into sweet scents. Those odor that you would like to eat.


Sixth product: GLOSSYBOX - NAIL FILE
Translation: This GLOSSYBOX nail file ensures you from perfectly formed nails, perfect for manicures. 
My opinion: Just your regular nail file. The color is cute and it works how it should work :).



Seventh product: ORANGE SOAP - ZEST
Translation: A fruity and fresh soap which smell like an orange, based on vegetal ingredients. 
My opinion: It looks very simple, even so for the packaging. It smell nice too. Haven't used it yet. If it's super good, I will let you now.

That were my products from that months box. I am still upset, because I dropped the Vital Oil on the ground. Too bad.. It was my favorite. I am really considering of buying that product.

I hope you enjoyed this post and maybe made you curious about some products :). My next GLOSSYBOX entry will be up soon! 

See you next time , byebyeeee~

Glossybox - August

About a month ago Arjana told me about GLOSSYBOX. When I heard what she had to say I became so interested! Now, what is a Glossybox?




A Glossybox contains five travel sized beauty product. It can be anything. There will always be something different in it. Like make up products, cremes and even shampoo's. 

Every month you will get one if you join Glossybox. First you'll have to create your beauty profile. Based on this profile you will get certain beauty samples that will fit you the best. The price to get it is 12,50 a month. Not too bad, huh? You can even unsubscribe whenever you want too!

As the picture above says (I copied and pasted it) woman in over more than 15 other countries do this. For more information check out their site: http://www.glossybox.com/  or the dutch version: http://www.glossybox.nl/

Let me show you what I got in this month's Glossybox.


It comes in this package. Cute already!

Inside the package you will find a box :).

Then you open it ....!!

Cuteness and girlishness never stops O_O.

You will find this with all the products inside of the box.

NICE! So let's start the review.

First product: KIEHL'S - LIP BALM #1
Translation: One of the worldwide favorites from Kiehl's costumers. It protects en offers intensive soothing on dry lips. I also includes Sun-protection factor 4.
My opinion: I love it! It really is soothing on the lips. Your lips will feel very soft en regenerated. It also had sunblock! LIKE!

Second product: PUREOLOGY - SUPER SMOOTH
Translation: This line of hair care products offers a  personal treatment on your own hairtype. The exclusively concentrated Zero Sulfate shampoo cleanses, nurtures and treats the hair mildly.
My opinion: I used it today. It smells nice and it does its job well. With most shampoo's you can't comb through your hair that easily, but with this one I pretty much can. 

Third product:  VERA VALENTI - CRAYON
Translation: An easy to use eye pencil with sharpener. For creating an intense look easily and accurate. This can be combined perfectly with the Vera Valinti eyeshadows. 
My opinion: I do not use eye pencils very often. I tried this one on my lower waterline and I must say it's a very good one. It doesn't smudge that much and gives a good intense look.

Fouth product: VERA VALINTI - EYESHADOW PALETTE.
Translation: Eight perfectly matching color eyeshadows, ranging from chestnut brown to white. It comes with a light pink blush to create various looks.
My opinion: I never, ever use eyehadow. I'm not that skilled with it. I tried on the slightly orange colored one and I must say I very much like it. It stays on perfectly and the colors are so beautiful. I'm going to experiment more with it.

Last product: GLOSSYBOX - SERIE EXCLUSIV PRO BEAUTY BRUSH
Translation: This professional brush has an elegant design and is specially made for GLOSSYBOX. It's made out of the best quality goat hair. The voluminousness brush can absorb big amounts of blush so you can apply it easily.
My opinion: I haven't used this yet. I think I'm not going to either. I'm giving it away in a goodiebag :).

My first experience with GLOSSYBOX was a very good one! I liked the products and I can't wait for next month's box. I'm really curious of what the box will contain then. 

Thanks for reading :) bubaay!

August Beauty Haul

Sundays are so relaxing, most of the time don't you think? I think so :). Most people are free from whatever obligations they have and they can just enjoy their day. Finally my last Sunday was one of those days. 

I went to "Leyweg" here in Holland. It's a small shopping center in The Hague. Nothing special tho. I was looking for some products that I needed, but I left with more than I expected!

In a drugstore called "Etos" I bought this:


I was searching for some facial masks. I always buy those single packages. If you are buying it one time it's cheap, but when you always buy those single packages it will be more expensive then buying a tube full of that goodness instead. So I bought two tubes for face masks of Montagne Jeunesse. One that's called Dark Chocolate. It's a deep cleansing mud mask. I always buy that one in sachet (a single pack) and it's so nice I almost want to eat it!

The other tube or tottle, whatever you like to call it, is called Tropical Peel Off also from Montagne Jeunesse. I'm not sure if I ever tried this one in specific, but I know that peel off's are pretty nice too. It's a very light feeling substance and after 15 of 20 minutes of letting it sit on your face it will feel like you are a plastic doll lolol. Kind of like this:


After you peel your mask off (Yes this works great!) it will feel as if you have peeled of your old skin and you are left with fresh new skin!

The Taft Curl Balm I have never used before so I'm very curious about how this will help my curls to stay nice and smooth haha.

The hair-repair mask is from Schwarzkopf, Gliss KUR. I think I used this once, but I somehow can't remember anymore. I hope this product helps to maintain my hair to be healthy and all. I am trying to let my hair grow so I'm treating my hair as good as possible and trying different kinds of brands to look what suits me best. Eating well and healthy helps a lot also! Don't forget :).

I picked out a random nail polish color also. It kind of a dark red/brownish one. I think it looks sophisticated and very pretty. Not expensive at all! 
 I also bought this. I really love this brand and I love how all their products smell! I LOVE COCONUT YEAH! This is a package with hydrating cleansing wipes. It cleanses and softens the skin, as you can read. It works good. The only thing is that the wipes are really moist so you are left with very moist hands. 

The people who know me well know that I really like objects in the shape of frogs hahaha. Everything with a froggie on it like this makes me go:


And indeed it's a lunchbox. It's useful for school and NO I don't think this is childish at all hehe. Better that to put your food in a plastic zzzzzzzzzakje (sexy word, if you know what I'm talking about, no? watch this). Plastic bag in English :3. Bought this at BLOKKER.



Normally on Sunday almost every store is closed. But on the first Sunday of the month the shopping center Leyweg is open. Everywhere you see little stands where people sell stuff from clothing to make up. 

The brown eyeliner is from miss sporty. I like the black one from Miss sporty also but they don't seem to sell them anywhere anymore.

I found a stand were every product was 1 Euro. Couldn't walk past it. Everything I bought at that stand you can see in the picture above.



I don't recognize this brand FOGAN but there were a lot of FOGAN items there. Just looked it up on the internet. They say everything is 0.99 euro O_O go check! http://www.fogan.nl/ 

I haven't tried them out yet, but soon enough I will and show them in some youtube video's . They are crack nail polish by the way. Very cool. I also like the colors.



FOGAN nail polishes.

I thought this was a sweet pink color for blush. I tried it out and it was very sweet indeed.

I'm not that into make up, but I'm doing my best in learning more about it and practicing with it.

This is an eye pencil also from FOGAN. Didn't tried it out yet. I don't expect much from it either. But we will see haha.

I found this lash curler also for 1 euro. I have one from Miss Heleen. I thought it was a good one, until I used this one from Meng Lu.   




I know this might be a cheap-ass curler, but it works great for me! Better that the one I had. Now I can understand those beauty gurus on youtube when they are talking about to invest in a good lash curler! From now on I will be upgrading my lash curler.

Before curling.

After curling. WOW!

SO LONG GAYBOY, gonna throw this lash curler away now.

Finally three lipsticks from Rimmel. In stores you buy them for 10 euro's, there I bought them for 1 euro x_x. Actually everything was only 0,90 cents...!! I could pick 11 items for 10 Euro's!

This are the colors that I picked out:


I really love Nude colored lipsticks!


That was all! I hope you liked it? Now I will update my music on my mobile so that I can work out good at the gym lol. :D
Have a wonderful day! Bubaay!
