Glossybox UK April 2013 Review & Unboxing *Pearl Lowe Edition*

Yay I finally received my Glossybox for April so excited for this and it did not disappoint!

This months was a special edition box by Pearl Lowe and I love love love the box design super cute and I will be keeping it to store letters :)

 A quick look at the products...

SunSense - Daily Face SPF. Price: £18.50 for 75g - www.crawfordshealthcare.com

This will be great for the warmer months when you don't want to put on a lot of products but still want a little coverage. The daily face has 50+ SPF which is tinted for a sheer matte finish which is great and the fact that is is good for all skin types just makes it better!! Cant wait to give this a try and see if it really works I don't doubt the SPF i am more dubious about the tinted part and if I will come out looking like an oompa loopma lol

NIP + FAB - Coconut Latte Dry Skin Fix Body Butter.  Price: £9.95 for 200ml - www.nipandfab.com

So I'm actually pretty excited to try this out I am been really into moisturizers and body lotions/creams recently for when i get out of the shower and I have heard great things from this brand. I am not 100% in love with the smell just because to me it doesn't smell like coconut or latte it smells of Coco Butter and I am not a huge fan of that. 

Modelco - Cheek + Lip Tint in Rosy Red. Price: £15 for 10ml - www.modelcocosmetics.co.uk

I think this is the only products in the whole box I wasn't overly happy with only because I know what other products people got in their boxes in stead of this. The packaging is cute and reminds me of the OCC liptars but the color is really not be I think I might try this as a blush but i cant see that going to well haha.

 Yves Rocher France - So Elixir Purple Perfume. Price: £44 for 50ml - www.yves-rocher.co.uk

 As we all know (if you have watched my YouTube channel) I am a Perfume junkie I love new perfumes and buying different scents!! This has to be the cutest bottle for a sample and I love that the liquid is purple, the smell is really nice a little bit strong but will be perfect for a night out. Its described as a Floral - Woody Elixir and I must say I agree with that its not my usual scent of choice but still smells amazing :)

Essie Nail Lacquer - Nice is Nice. Price: £7.99 for 5ml - www.boots.com , www.superdrug.com

I am not sure how many colors they sent out in all the boxes but I am so happy I recieved this gorgeous lilac color so so pretty!! I cant wait to wear it it will def be on my next to paint list. I am a massive Essie fan and this is the best spring color cant wait to start rocking it :) 

Lets face it though its always going to be a good box if it comes with a nail polish lol

so thats all for this months Glossybox for April and as you can see I LOVE it :)

Cant wait to see whats in next months box!!

My Favorite Must Have Spring Nail Polish ❤

As we all know I am nail polish crazy like I have just over 200 bottles of the stuff and still continue to buy more as new collections are released and spring/summer are my favorite collections to look at and buy so here it is my Spring must have nail polishes!

Spring always brings out the pastel colors in my collection like Im sure it does with everyone else so this is a mix between pastel colors with the odd bright thrown in. I feel brights are very much summer colors so keep an eye out for that post once summer hits :)

I am a huge cream and high shine fan for nail polish while I still love glitters and shimmers i find myself draw more towards the cream bases well recently anyway.

Lets get into this!!

As you can see these match the swatches at the very top :)

The Peachy Pinks..

Models Own: Peach Sherbet - Super cute color for both toes and fingers not too bright but still have a great spring pop. It very much matches its name I think of sherbet when I see it. Models Own in its self is a very good nail polish brand great quality and if you can find a good deal on them then they are always worth the price.

Wet 'N' Wild: Sugar Coat - I just love this very subtle if you don't want a huge pop of color this is the one more on the peachy side of pink and super cheap for the quality of the polish!

Essie: Fiji - I picked this up after seeing so many people rave about it and I am so glad I did. Like the Wet 'N' Wild not a crazy stand out color but still a really nice creamy color this is very much a girlie baby pink.

The Hot pink & Lilac..

 China Glaze: Dance Baby - I have been loving this bad boy recently the best hot pink that isnt neon or over the top in my opinion. It come out on the nail alot more pink than in the bottle great pop of color for a spring day. China Glaze is hands down my fave brand even though on the pricy side I just love them!

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Lacey Lilac - You cant go through spring without wearing a lilac at least once and this has to be my favorite this season. This is really a True purple lilac apposed to the pink tone purples, this I feel with transition into summer and work great to.

The Minty Yellows..

China Glaze: Re-Fresh Mint - Ok so this right here is probably my favorite out of everything! I was obsessed with this color last year and I feel it will happen again its the best minty green apple color I will be repurchasing this so I don't run out over spring!!

Revlon: Sunshine Sparkle - Now this is I think the only color that isn't a cream base and does have a slight sparkle in it. This will be more of a toe color for myself but I think would still work amazing as a finger nail color. Although the polish is more on the sheer side it does need a second or third coat depending on how opaque you want the color.

Barry M Jelly Shine: Greenberry - I am a mint color fanatic if you hadn't noticed already hehe so the fact that with his super shiny as well OMG amazing!! I had this color on for at least a week recently which is a long time for me. Barry M is super cheap and amazing quality couldn't ask for a better polish!

Have you got any polish you would recommend for me to try out for this season or leading into summer? please let me knowing the comments below I always love trying out new colors and polish brands :)
