I was very excited last night to recieve my July GlossyBox (www.glossybox.co.uk), I signed up a few months ago as it seemed like a brilliant idea, you pay a monthly fee of £10 plus postage and packing and you get a lovely box filled with 5 new products that you can try out. GlossyBox ask to to fill in a questionnaire which basically builds a beauty profile and this is what they use to decide what products to send you.
Great idea right? Well it would be if only GlossyBox paid attention to the beauty profile. My first GlossyBox was amazing, all the products were great and were ones that I would be happy to try out. Now I recognise that this can't be the case all the time but I do expect a certain percentage of 'good' in each box. The last few GlossyBoxs I've recieved have been OK although I was a little annoyed at last month's Vichy Dermablend sample as it was just literally a dab of 6 different shades, 4 of which are of no use to me at all as I'm Indian and the colours were just too light. I was hoping that this was a one off issue, however I realise with my July box that isn't the case at all.
In this month's GlossyBox I recieved:
Come on GlossyBox, sort it out! A bit of care and attention would go a long way!
