Hello everybody!

Yes, you read correctly, I have another giveaway! I know I have two other giveaway's running HERE and HERE but lovely people at GlossyBox offered one GlossyBox to give away to my UK readers so let's go!

October GlossyBox is really a great one! It contains:

  • Dermalogica Age Smart MultiVitamin Thermafoliant – I yet have to try this product but Dermatologica is generally a great brands. Can't wait to try it! The sample size is 15ml 
  • Dermalogica Age Smart MultiVitamin Power Recover Masque – The sample size is again 15ml which is quite a generous sample and it will last a few uses
  • Dermalogica Age Smart Renewal Lip Complex – this is a very nice lip balm and it smells really yummy! The Sample size is 1ml but I think it will still go a long way. Also this was an sith extra product together with Dermatologica cosmetic bag! Pretty great I think!
  • Leighton Denny Expert Nails Colour - I got in my box colour Hanky Panky (orange with pearl finish). I'm not sure what the fuss is about nail polishes from this brand, I wasn't stunned. Maybe I'm just spoiled by OPI, China Glaze and others :D
  • Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eyeliner - I got a Moray shade, dark olive green with gold shimmer. So far it looks to me that everybody got this shade. I have tried this pencil just on my hand but it looks pretty good. As a brown eyed girl, I can definitely wear this colour :)
  • Robert Piguet Eau De Parfums – There were also three fragrance samples in the box - Fracas de Robert Piguet, Visa De Robert Piguet and Calypso de Robert Piguet.
As always GlossyBox was beautifully packed and I'm still loving it!

And now to the giveaway! As I've mentioned above, the prize is an October GlossyBox. Prize will be sent directly from the GlossyBox so I can't guarantee you any particular nail polish colour..it will be a surprise :)

The giveaway will be running for two weeks from 20 October 2011 till 3 November 2011. It is open to UK RESIDENTS ONLY! Sorry to the international readers but please join my two international giveaways mentioned in the beginning.


I will be using Rafflecopter form once again and you can earn entries by following my blog, sharing giveaway, following GlossyBox etc. Please read instructions!

Good luck!

Hi everybody,

the craze about beauty boxes continue and now I can show you a new brand Carmine. Carmine Beauty Box service went live last week and I've subscribedfew days after launch. Today postmen brought me me a bright orange and red box with carmine logo! Yay! That was fast... After opening the orange box I found elegant black box inside. I had a little trouble to open it because you have to lift the whole lid like with GlossyBox except with Carmine box it's bigger.

If you would like to subscribe to Carmine box, please use this referral link: http://www.carmine.co.uk/0dcO3  It will get me some points towards free box

Right now Carmine has only 5 listed brands but I hope this number will rise in the future.The first carmine box includes 5 items from 5 different brands. so what I got in my box?

Trind Nail Repair Natural
Daniel Sandler Eye Delight in Peach
Balance me Super Moisturising Hand Cream
TheBalm FratBoy – All-in-one shadow/blush
Caudalie Quenching Sorbet-Creme

I like the box and the items but they are not the right shades/types for me so I'll try to swap most of them for better suiting stuff. However I'm very curious about the Trind nail product.

I think I'll stay subscribed for another month and if I'll have items I will need to swap, I might unsubscribe. maybe if there would be more brands, that would keep me interested. What do you think of Carmine box?
