March Glossybox: The Harrods Edition

I had a nice surprise yesterday when the postman knocked and handed over my Glossybox. I only had the email saying they had dispatched it the day before so wasn't expecting it so soon. 



I love the packaging, like all their other limited edition boxes they have changed the colour from the usual light pink. this time they have changed it to a white box with black tissue, which I think looks very nice. Inside there is a Harrods sticker and ribbon, which is a nice touch.

So what did I get in my box?





Clarins Extra Firming Body Cream



A Formula Rich in regenerating and firming plant extracts which immediately helps to lift and tone, for firmer skin and a younger looking body.

I am 23, so I am yet to have any wrinkles, so I am hoping that this cream may help with cellulite, as I do have a touch of that. I am going to try it even though it is meant for the older woman, it may still be a great body cream and will definitely be getting some use.

YSL Forever Youth Liberating Serum



A powerful serum enriched with 3 glycans to increase youth activity in cells (in vitro test)
Use one drop day and evening on cleansed skin, prior to applying your daily moisturiser. 

As I said above, I am 23, I also have very sensitive skin and have to be careful what I put on it. Most anti-ageing creams that I have tried have broke me out, and unfortunately I am expecting the same of this one. I think that I will pass this one on to my mum, who will get better use of this. 


Burberry Beauty - Miniature Lip Cover Rosewood No 4



This soft satin lipstick offers intense moisture and luminous long lasting colour for fuller lips

As I think most subscribers are, I was very excited to receive this Burberry Lipstick. When I opened it and saw the colour, I must admit that I was a little disappointed. It is a sort of deep brown with a hint of pink to it, which usually I would stay away from. However after trying it out, I think that I may use this colour, it does look nice and sophisticated on.



 I don't think that it gives me fuller lips though, it actually makes them look smaller in my opinion, but I think this is because it is a darker colour. It is very moisturising though. 

Molton Brown Heavenly Ginger-Lily Moisture Bath and Shower



Vitamin rich fruit extracts boost the skin and invigorate the senses.

Even though this is another miniature shower gel added to my collection, I was happy to receive this in my box. I have wanted to try Molten Brown for ages now but never got around to it. It smells gorgeous so I am looking forward to using this.

Narciso Rodriguez - For Her Eau De Parfum



For her is Narciso Rodriguez's first fragrance. A tribute to women's grace and power of inspiration.

I have to admit I was a little disappointed to receive this perfume sample. From other blogs I saw that there is a Fendi perfume sample that comes in a miniature bottle, so was really hoping to get that. However this perfume is absolutely gorgeous, something that I would definitely wear, I just don't think that it will last that long. 

Overall I am very pleased with this months box. I have ordered another one as a Mothers-day gift for my mum, so I am excited to see what will be in that. 

You can sign up to Glossybox here for £10 a month plus £2.95 postage.
