Hi there my loves and yay for Friday :) Today I have my latest GlossyBox products to show you. This box is titled Dark Romance as with Halloween and the winter months creeping up on us it's time to delve into the dark side.
A tint to add a flirty flush to the cheeks and/or lips.
For cheek application smile and place a small amount of the liquid on the apple of your cheeks then quickly and gently blend in an upwards motion, following your cheekbone. You can also apply to the lips with the small applicator brush to add a flush of colour that will last all day.
There is a slight scent to this product which I can't quite make out, but I don't find it offensive. The shade is a little more pink in tone than it looks in the bottle, but it definitely has that flushed glow.
Inspired by a Queen’s scepter, the distinct jewel-shaped bottle portrays sexy sophistication and lawless luxury. The bottle is enhanced with a rich gold crown cap showcasing a custom crest capturing Katy Perry’s playful essence – regal cats, a music clef, and a dagger.
Top Notes: Wild Berry, Dark Plum, Bergamot.
Middle Notes: Red Velvet Flower, Natural Jasmine Sambac, Rainbow Plumeria.
Base Notes: Cashmeran, Natural Patchouli Heart, Liquid Praline.
"When I was creating Killer Queen, I was really inspired by the idea of a strong, confident woman in power and that is exactly what I hoped to put into this fragrance, something that brings out the power inside of you"
Katy Perry
Ooh yeah I like this perfume. It's warm, strong, sensual and powerful all at the same time. It's a very empowering fragrance that I will enjoy wearing for sure so thank you Katy Perry. This definitely has Katy's stamp on it.
Formulated with light reflective and soft focus technology to brighten the complexion and add instant sheen and radiance. Used alone, gives skin a smooth flawless finish. Provides an excellent base for make-up. Paraben free formulation.
After cleansing and toning apply to the face and neck using gentle upward movements every morning.
This feels like a really silky cream on my hand that blends into the skin easily. It has a slight glow, but I am not sure how much if at all this will show through make-up. It has a very faint creamy scent.
This lightweight shine-control serum is silky yet mattifying. This blended formula offers a comforting barrier cream to soothe redness, and smooth the uneven texture, perfect for applying makeup on top.
Top Tip: Squirt 2 pumps onto the back of your hand, followed by your desired liquid foundation and mix together with a foundation brush to create a hypoallergenic, natural BB Cream!
I would say this feels like a cream with a slight gel consistency. It has the same lemongrass scent that I did not care for in the Premae Harmony Balm. I will however still try it out, especially as I am intrigued about how it claims to be able to turn foundations into BB Creams by mixing them together. On the information card it advises to apply this before moisturising, but the GlossyBox website says after moisturising so I guess it can be used as serum and/or as a make-up primer?
Argan oil and diamond powder.
Benefits:
Gives sublime shine and volume, adds unique nutrition and prevents frizzy hair.
Pour a small amount into your hand, spread it evenly through wet hair, dry your hair and apply another small amount if it’s needed.
I am not sure if I am meant to pull to top off or pierce the lid on this product so if anyone knows help a girl out :)
In addition to the products there is the edition of the October GlossyBox magazine which I enjoyed on my lunch break the other day.
So far the stand out product for me has been the Katy Perry fragrance. I will be adding this to my Xmas list for sure.
