Cohorted Black Beauty Box February 2016

I'm not overly excited by this months box, I have actually quite disappointing when I opened it up and saw the contents. For a normal beauty box it would be great, but for what they promise and the impression they give of their boxes, it just isn't great. I also much, much prefer the look incredible box, which does what cohorted is supposed to do,   for that reason i have for now unsubscribed from this box, next months will be my last as i have already paid for it.

Elemis Pro Collagen Hydra-Gel Eye Masks - £15
When i first saw this i thought it was a sample sachet. It still is not technically a full size product as they come in a pack of 6 for £45. But after trying these i really enjoyed the feeling of them, im a bit young for anti-aging skincare so in that respect i didn't notice them doing anything, they just felt really, really good.

BareMinerals Night Treatment - £45
This product is mad, and i'm still not sure i understand it. It is supposed to reduce the appearance of pores (i don't really have big pores), improve luminosity and deliver increased cell turnover. The latter two i am really excited about.  This is the shade medium, which while in a night time product this is not an issue i have noticed that all the 'base' products they send are in a medium shade which is another reason for me unsubscribing as i have porcelain skin. I have only used this once so i can't say weather or not i have noticed a difference in my skin but i can say that the brush is wonderful, it applys and feels nice on the skin and thankfully it does not make me look like a oompa lompa. But this is a product i think i will introduce into my night time skin care.

Dover Underarm Cream £20?
We were supposed to get the pixie crayon combo but the delivery did not arrive to them in time. This was another product that made me disappointed in the box, Again it wouldn't be in any other box but along with their promises it is. Also i dont really have a use for this, so that makes it kind of redundant for me

Cargo Long Wear Lip Gloss £10.00
Again, i know im sounding like a negative nelly here, but this is another product i was not excited about. I have never really enjoyed anything i have tried from cargo, plus it is bright red and sticky on the lips. I did try it and while the colour was not as bad on me as i thought it would be, the gloss did come away from the center of my lips very quickly.

Marc Jacobs Lola perfume sample
I actually enjoy this, I know a lot of people do have issue with perfume samples, but honestly, i love them. I'm a perfume girl through and through and the more scents i have in my collection the  better, no matter what size they are. I have a cute little jar that i keep all my samples in so this has gone straight into that.

Chanel Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow £25
This was the main product this month and i am in love. The product itself is pretty fascinating to me because it bounces like a sponge. The colour is just gorgeous and while it is a little dark for me personally as a eye shadow, the product and brush it came with work perfectly as a eyeliner and i rather enjoyed using it as so.

What did you think of this months box?

Look Incredible Beauty Box February 2016

I am so excited by this months box, it has some brands in that I love, or have wanted to try for a long time. Everything is red themed, I'm not sure if this was on purpose for valentines day but it sure does fit.

Fusion Beauty Illumicover Concealer - £16.50
This is actually the only brand I have not heard of in the box, but I was excited to see this as I love the YSL touche eclat and mine is a lot older then it should be.  It took a long time for the product to come up, and even though it is in the shade light it is quite orangy. It is very hard to blend due to the dry consistency, far too dark for me, and also it has such a strong perfumed scent that I am finding to be a bit irritating on my under eye. An exciting product as first but unfortunately mine has turned out to be quite the dud.

Nars Single Matte Eyeshadow - Grenadines - £18.00
I have been wanting to try something from Nars for the longest time, but I have never known what to choose and so have not bit the bullet. So I am super excited to see a nars product in this months box. Im not usually a fan of red eye shadows, but this colour is super pretty. As expected the eye shadow is super smooth, buttery, blendable and pigmented. And much more of a wearable colour then I thought it would be.

Tarte Maracuja Cheek Tint - £20.00
I love Tarte products and especially that they keep making a reappearance in this box. This cheek tint includes a lot of nice ingredients such as, maracuja oil, sodium hyaluronate, ginseng root extract, mineral pigments and camellia extract. The colour is called Sheer Red, and it is quite a orange based red which had me doubtful that it would work with my skin tone. You definitely do not  need a full pump with this, Id say only a 1/4 of a pump. And to my surprise this is also a very wearable colour, it blends fabulously, has a wonderful cooling effect and just leaves you with nice flushed cheeks. I think I'm going to love this product.

Estee Lauder Pure Colour Lipstick- Pinkberry- £21.99
Another brand I have wanted to try for a long time, I've heard such great things about their lip products in the past, and the name pinkberry just sounds perfect. Although on my lips its a pinky nude. I think this might actually be my perfect nude lipstick as it is only slightly darer then my natural lip colour but the same tone. It feels very creamy and hydrating on my lips and it is supposed to be long lasting

Essie Millionails Treatment £9.99
I do not really get on with Essies nail polishes, but i am excited to try this as i do have very brittle nails, that never grow to any great length.

Look Incredible January 2016

I was so excited to receive another one of the look incredible boxes. I just love the brands the put in there and that fact that the products are full size and things that you would actually want to use.


Bareminerals Redness Remedy
This is a fascinating product, it is a bright yellow powder that is used as a skincare item that it supposed to reduce redness over time. I was using this, but then something else i started using was breaking me out, so i stopped for a while in case it was this. I was not really using it for long enough to tell a difference, but it did make my face feel like velvet. I will for sure go back to using this once my skin has cleared up a bit more. It also comes with a brush that is so very soft and is apparently anti bacterial which i found quite impressive.

Bareminerals Flawless Definition Volumizing Mascara
I get along with a lot of mascaras, i do not really need them to do a lot for me, however, this one was just bad. It didn't do anything. I found it left my lashes looking shorter then they actually are ... How does that even happen? I think the product is just too dry to do anything good, also it smells awful.

Essie Nail Polish in Steel-ing The Scene
This is a really pretty colour, just like a silver chrome colour. However i do find that essie polishes always chip like crazy on me. Im going to keep it, and wear it because i think the colour is just so pretty.

Laura Geller Baked Impressions Blush in Mauve Mocha Latte
I love the name of this, also i love the print in the powder.. so pretty! The colour is just a perfect everyday, understated, will go with any make up look kind of colour. Again the powder is very smooth and bendable with fantastic pigment.

YSL Lip Twin
I have been really enjoying this, it is actually currently in my bag, On me it is a gorgeous mauve taupe colour and the purply gloss in the middle of the lip just add a little something, something. The lip stick is very pigmented, easy to apply and creamy just like all of the YSL lipsticks.

Cohorted January 2016

Oh boy did I love this month Cohorted box! I can not wait for the next box to come. There is something special about getting a beauty box with high end full size products in. So here is what was in this months box.

Too Faced Soul Mates in Carrie and Big
I was very happy to get this as it was in the December box which i was hoping to get but I signed up too late, so it was exciting to see this.  I am glad that I got this one instead as the bronzer is lighter and i have porcelain skin. I do find it a little difficult to pick up just that peach colour so i tend to swirl it around with a little bit of the bronzer and the colour is a very pretty bronzy peach that is perfect for when i want a subtle blush colour. The power is really smooth and i don not need to do a lot of blending when applying this also the packaging is very cute

Lancome Corrector Pro Palette
This is probably my most used product from this month. The corrector is too dark for me but i find if i apply a little bit under my foundation then the concealer over the top of my foundation this works perfectly. These are the nicest cream concealers i have ever used. The cream is just.... silky? So easy to apply and blend and it does not crease or wear off. Love this product!

Too Faced Lip Injection Color Bomb Lip Tint
Firstly the colour of this is gorgeous, i really love deep berry colour lips. But i have read loads of reviews on this months Cohorted Box (does anyone else read reviews by the tonnes on things they have bought just so see what everyone else thinks of it?) and not one person have mentioned how much this product hurts! Its a lip plumping lip tint so it has that tingle, however, to me it isnt a tingly. I may be just a wimp but to me is it a intense sting, followed by numbness, followed by the feeling of hundreds of needles pricking me in the lips..over..and over... and over again. I've worn this once and felt i could not deal with it.  Also i have quite full lips so it did not really plump them either.

Cargo Lip Gloss Quad.
I have never used a product for Cargo before, but i really do like this. The glosses are really pretty girly colours, while they do not have much pigmentation they are lovely to wear over a similar lip colour. These feel kind of wet on the lips, which is how i want a lip gloss to feel, not sticky.

Glossybox January 2016

This was my last Glossy box I will be receiving, and im kind of glad. While the products aren't bad my other two subscriptions are just so much more exciting. Here is what was in my box and what I thought of them.

Madala Cellular Repair Serum. -
This is actually for aging skin, and I am not quite there yet! This is a pale green, which is interesting, but I didn't really feel like this did anything. Probably more because I am not it's targeted user.

Unani Dermo Defense Face Mask
I was really excited when I saw this, it is meant to be protecting, hydrating and to remove impurities. I didn't find that it did any of these things. It goes on quite sticky and takes a little while to sink in, then nothing. I have very dry skin so maybe it just was not hydrating for me, but I found this product to be quite the let down.

Glossy box Eye shadow - Mauve
Another product I was quite excited to see, I love the colour, as I really do enjoy taupe's. And this goes on the eyelid a really nice shade and then.. it disappears...

Teeez Cosmetics Oasis Gem Lipstick.
Just look at the packaging, isn't it amazing. I also really love the coral colour mine came in, I found it to go on the lips really nicely. It is a lovely satin matt finish and last for ages on my lips. The only problem with this is that the product falls out of the bullet every time I use it, which is a shame otherwise I am  very happy with this product.

Angele Paris Nail Polish
I love nail polishes, unfortunately reds just do not suit me, so I haven't even tried this one.
