ICONIC HOLLYWOOD EDITION GLOSSYBOX


Hi Everyone and Happy Friday! In today's post I want to share with you my initial impressions on the Iconic Hollywood Edition GlossyBox.



A classic iconic red that Marilyn herself would no doubt love. Available in matt and shine finishes.

I am not usually a fan of lip crayons as I find that the caps tend to come off all the time in my handbag. Very annoying! I made the decision quite some time ago not to buy more for this reason. 

This lipstick crayon however that I have just applied I have instantly fallen in love with. Most products of this type tend to be glossy, but mine is matt and I have to say wow it looks good. All I need is winged eyeliner, a slinky dress and somewhere glam to be.

The colour is a very bold starlet red with an orange undertone which always makes my blue eyes pop. My lips get very dry very easily so matt formula's I tend to avoid. This product however feels velvety on my lips and applied so smoothly. I am so impressed by the formula and the pigment. My lips are not drying out at all.

I am new to Lord & Berry as a brand, but I certainly want to check out more of their products.


This product claims to be very easy to use as with one swipe you can create a winged line or blend for a smokey effect.

I love the name sooty black, but I would say that's my favourite thing about this liner. The pigment is black, but not the darkest black I have ever tried. I lined my upper lid and winged it out. I found it took quite a few strokes even after warming up the pencil on the back of my hand. You will not be able to create a precise line with this pencil easily. I also applied it under my eyes and tried smoking it out with the smudger. To be honest I think it just removed some of the product.

Pop Beauty are also new to me and have other products I would be interested in trying, but this one just didn't do it for me.


A moisturising and protective formula providing elasticity to the skin for a firmer look and feel while softening lines and wrinkles. It also gives skin a radiating glow.

It smells lovely and will hopefully be a great moisturising cream. It does have a more hefty price tag than I would usually pay, but it says to use only a pearl-sized amount morning and night.

Daprhin are also a brand I haven't tried before so it will be great to see how the quality of this product fairs.


This nude shade is great for any skin tone and is said to have a high shine finish.

I don't think nude nails will ever go out of fashion. They go with everything and are very wearable for all ages.


  • Top Notes: Hot Milk & White Peach.
  • Middle Notes: Jasmine & Tuberose.
  • Base Notes: Sandalwood, Cedar Wood, Vanilla & Musk.
A softening and protective formula for your hands that will also strengthen the nails. This product is not tested on animals.

The tube is sealed, but I can already smell the vintage floral scent before taking it out of the box. I love the packaging, but I am a not sure if the scent appeals to me so far as I am not a big fan of vanilla and floral vintage scents.

I am still using other hand creams so I will review this product as soon as I can.

I am very happy with the Lord & Berry lip product in this box. The eyeliner was a bit disappointing and everything else is just wait and see for now.

I am so glad there is no spoiler card in this box for the next one. I like to have everything in each box be a surprise every month which was what initially enticed me to subscribe.

GlossyBox Be Mine

Hi there gorgeous people. If you celebrated Valentines Day yesterday I hope you had fun. If you didn't what fabulous things did you get up to? We bought lots of needed items for our home during the day. In the evening I had a relaxing bath then enjoyed a Chinese takeaway and a drink or two with my fella while watching a movie. Perfect!

Anyway, on to today's post. This morning my GlossyBox arrived so I thought I would show you my products straight away.



Delicate light reflecting shimmer particles are suspended in this unique moisturising gel containing Mallow extract, Vitamin E and Wheatgerm Oil. Available in Tuberose & Jasmine, Fig & Pink Cedar, Cherry Blossom and Peony.

Shake before use. Apply to desired areas to add radiance and wash hands thoroughly after use.

I received the Cherry Blossom fragrance of this product. The top is sealed right now so I will let you know more about my thoughts on this when I come to use it.


High quality re-usable false lashes that come with a re-usable lash glue.

Trim to size, apply the glue to the lash band waiting for it to get tacky. Then press onto your natural lash line.

These look like very natural lashes with a very delicate band that will hopefully blend seamlessly in with my natural lashes.


Described as a soft yet striking nail shade that is a pink red.

Apply two coats followed by a top coat to seal the deal.

This is a lovely shade that really is a pink red. Great for days when you are on the fence between to two. This will be my next manicure for sure.


Calms frizz and creates silky, smooth touchable hair. Hair is cleansed and moisturised, leaving it shiny, easy to manage and tangle-free.


This ultra-rich conditioner calms frizz and creates silky, smooth, touchable hair.


A rich, leave in hair conditioner, 2-in-1 treatment and styling serum that protects hair from heat and locks moisture to leave hair beautifully soft and shiny.

Giovanni Eco Chic Cosmetics is the no.1 selling natural organic hair care brand in the US. These appear to be very nourishing products for both the hair and scalp with natural ingredients including Moroccan argan oils, avocado and papaya.


Creamy feeling, full coverage nude shades from this brand new collection.


The packaging reminds me instantly of the Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters. The lipstick smells sweet like toffee or caramel. The shade I would actually describe as toffee too. I think this is a very wearable neutral shade that will suit most skin tones, but for a Valentines box I think a more pink, red or purple toned lipstick would have been better suited. I really love the shades on the GlossyBox packaging so maybe something like one of those?


Also available at Tesco, Sainsburys and main convenience stores. This is Lindt's most famous chocolate, Lindor.

Well what can I say it's chocolate, yum!

In my opinion GlossyBox have upped their game this month. I am looking forward to indulging in all of these products.
