Glossybox 'Trick' October 2018 Beauty Box Review

One beauty box brand I have constantly been impressed with is Glossybox. I love how this month they have released two designs of beauty boxes, one for ‘Trick’ and one for ‘Treat’. I was really intrigued to see which beauty box I’d end up with and to my delight I got the ‘Trick’ box. 

 When it comes down to the content of the box, I genuinely think this is the best box they have ever done. I think for the price (£13.25) per month you are getting so many AMAZING products for your money from brands including Illamasqua, This Works, Luna by Luna, Sleek and MUA Luxe. I think what works well with this box is that it covers so many steps of your make-up routine so all products are so usable on a daily basis. So onto the contents…

 Illamasqua Antimatter Lipstick in the Energy (Full size - £20)

What I liked about this months box is there is firstly a full size lipstick (yes) and it’s worth a massive £20! Bargain right? However this purple is not a wearable colour for a daily basis. But, if you’re going out for Halloween this year or have a fancy dress occasion, this lipstick will be VERY helpful. This is a gorgeous, yet vibrant violet shade and is not drying on the lips either!

Sleek IDivine Eyeshadow Palette in Au Natural (Full Size £8.99)

If you’re looking for a drugstore palette, which is good quality, Sleek is a brand to know about. Yet another full size product in this months box, this Sleek palette is super wearable too. This would be a great palette to create both daytime and night-time looks. However, as someone who gravitates towards more expensive eye shadow palettes I have to say I was disappointed with this palette in particular, I thought some of the shades were a little chalky, which I haven’t experienced before with previous Sleek palettes. 

Luna by Luna HD Finishing Powder (Full Size £16.72)

Luna by Luna is a brand I’ve never actually heard of before but this was the product I have been most impressed with in this months box! This brand originated in New Jersey, it’s also a cruelty free brand too! This is a very lightweight formula and it helps to reduce the appearance of pores as well. I like applying this powder with my trusty beauty blender!

 MUA Luxe Bronze & Sculpt Contour kit in Light/Medium - (Full size £5)

MUA Luxe is a brand I know is stocked in Superdrug but it’s a brand I’ve never actually tried before and unfortunately for me, this product arrived smashed! (just my luck) however, the lovely guys over at Glossybox are resending it (I think) so I can still trial the product out!

  This Works in Transit Camera Close-up (Sample Size, Full Size £30)

This is a product I have trialled numerous times thanks to my beauty box addiction and I always finish every single one. This product from This Works is a moisturiser, mask and a primer all in one. This product is great as well as it is formulated with plant oils and caffeine and helps erase signs of fatigue.

 Overall, I am SERIOUSLY impressed with this months box and that even if you decide to sign up to Glossybox for one month, this month is the one!
