Another Harrods Glossybox goody.
I love, love, love this moisturiser, and unfortunately for me, this is the one product from my box that I didn't want to like. A full size 80g product will set you back £127!! Ouchie!
The sample size I received was 15ml, I've been using it twice a day for 4 days now and I've barely made a a dent in it. This cream goes such a long way! It spreads onto your skin very smoothly and soaks in super quick. If applied in the morning, this moisturiser makes your skin feel amazing throughout the whole day.
I have very dry skin and within the first day of use, my dry patches were gone.
This cream is a miracle product for me, but due to the very high price tag, I'm afraid I won't be purchasing it once I have used up my sample. Sadface.

When I received this mascara as a sample in my March Glossybox, I have to admit the first thing I though was 'damn, it's not the burberry lipstick', but after applying the product and giving it a chance, it really impressed me.
The curled brush makes it very easy to apply. I don't usually curl my lashes, so to find that this mascara not only gives tons of volume, it also gives amazing lift and I would say unless you have ridiculously straight lashes, curling is not entirely necessary.
The sample I received is 2ml in size, whereas a full size product is 6.5ml and can be purchased for £21.

I received a sample of this perfume in my March edition Glossybox.
I was initially a little disappointed with the size of the vile, 1.5ml didn't seem like it was going to go very far.
The scent on the other hand is amazing! It could very possibly be a new favourite of mine.
Valentino launched this perfume mid September 2011 and was inspired by Rome and Italian flavours. The scent itself is fresh, fruity and floral, with base notes of cedar and amber. Personally I think this makes the perfect summer day scent, it's very light so unfortunately doesn't last incredibly long on the skin.
The bottle design is cute and would look pretty sitting on the top of any girly girls dresser.
I'm saving what I have of this perfume for a special occasion. This is most definitely going to be on my Christmas list. (Early I know, but it's too late to add it to my birthday list.)
You can purchase this perfume at theperfumeshop here.

As most of you already know, this months Glossybox is a Harrods special edition. The box is very pretty and white, the tissue inside is black and is tidied together with a green Harrods ribbon. The little Glossybox sticker has also been replaced with a Harrods sticker. I think it's the little touches that make it feel special.
On one hand I wasn't tons pleased with what I received this month, I feel as though all the hype made us all think it was going to be incredible. On the other, I was reasonably pleased with a couple of the items I did get.
If you want to see what products I got and my initial views on them, check out the video below!
What did you guys think of the much hyped Harrods box?
