Exciting arrival of GlossyBox!

So the UK finally has the much anticipated GlossyBox! I have been hoping for a very long time this idea would be revolutionised in the UK. The Americans have had the Birchbox for a while now and I have always been a tad jealous, but that is no longer! Firstly the packaging is amazing! Very girlie, deluxe and appears a bit special. So the idea is you pay a monthly subscription of £10 per month and in return you receive one of the above boxes each month with 5 deluxe samples included. The products range from make up products to skin care, facial care, perfume and hair products. The idea is that you get to try a variety of different samples before you buy. They are larger than your average sample size so ideal to use as travel products etc. On occasions full size products are included such as lipsticks etc. In my opinion it is well worth £10!

However if you do find you subscribe and are not happy with the products it is simple to cancel, none of this 3 years notice....! You simply go online and cancel (definitely one of the areas I look into before signing up for anything). So when you sign up you are offered to complete a survey informing GlossyBox of your particular interests, skin type and product preferences, to enable them to slightly tailor make your box! For me I feel i get to try new, deluxe, high end products without spending a lot of money and realising they are not that great. Also I get to try products Ive not discovered yet! The downside is at present if you sign up for GlossyBox now you will not receive your box until mid July due to them selling out (not sure GlossyBox knew how popular they would be). Your money shouldn't be taken from your account until your box is dispatched! Definitely worth waiting for in my opinion! Get your GlossyBox! Please leave a comment if you have received your GlossyBox and your opinions!
