@glossybox reviews on pro white, lipcote and the eyeshadow palette

 Alessandro pro white nail polish

starting with alessandro pro white. this product represents germany in the international superstar themed box. glossy box describes pro white as a  nail polish that gives optical brightening effect for radiant white and gleaming nails. it retails at £7.85 for 10ml and is avalible to buy at www.alessandro-international.com

my verdict
i applied this to clean, freshly files nails. there was no recommendation of how many coats to apply so i applied the standard 2. the application was nice ans easy just like any other polish and it dried extremeny quick which allowed me to get on with my house hold jobs. this appealed to me being a busy working mum. the less time it takes to groom my self the better.

on first inspection the polish did exactly what it said. my nails looked cleaner and instantly more healthier. i have to say i was inpressed with the inital look and feel of the product. my problem was the next day in the daylight the pigment of the polish which is violet was standing out making my nails look un naturel. maybe this wasa due to the fact i put 2 coats on. my other problem was the polish didnt even last a day it was chipping in work. not ideal when i work using my hands to present products.

overall this is a good product for a quick fix in making your nails look good. i would definitly use this for a quick soluation when going out, as for day to day use maybe not as due to the pigment when it chipped it was noticabe but again that may be down to using 2 coats instead of 1. 

Vera valenti eyeshadow palette

vera valenti eyeshadow palette represent spain in the international superstar themed box. the palette cost £3.85, no website for purchase avalible.

my verdict
to start with i had real trouble getting in this product the opener was very difficult and frustrating. the colours were very out dated and something that i would give to a child to play with. the actual product wasnt very good either, it was very thin and needed a few layers to be able to see. it didnt last long i had come off before i even got to work. 

overall this product is cheap in price and cheap in qualitly. i would definitly not purchase this an would not use this product again. 

lipcote

lipcote represent britain in the international superstar themed box. glossy box say its the original lipstick sealer and secret of long lasting, featger fade and water resistent lip stick. it retails at £3.99 per 7ml and is avalible at www.lipcote.com

my verdict
the application of this product was very weird i didnt like the way this product is applied it felt like i was applying nail polish to my lips. on application the brush removed some of my lipstick giving an uneven look. the product made my lips sting and extremly sensative and to top it off made my lipstick come off quicker than it would have done without this product.

overall this wasnt a very good product, there are products on the market that does the job of this but with better results and its applied better. i think this product has had its day and is extemely outdated. i would not use this product again and i would definly not buy it.
