Valentines box swap | what I got

I mentioned a few months ago (WOW?!) now that I was taking part in the Valentines box swap that Lucie from Fatbeautyx and Sam from Mascara & Cakes set up and I'm back today to show you what I received. 

I was told that I was going to be sending Helena from Helena Loves a box, and she also sent me one back but at the time we obviously didn't know this. We had to give a short list of products we like and don't like for our valentine to use as a guideline. 

All my items were individually wrapped which was so lovely. They also had loads of confetti heart things with a letter! All my items had a separate letter inside the wrapping to explain why she got me it.

Rimmel Moisture Renew lipstick

Kate Moss lipstick

Scandal eyes mascara

Lip stain with balm

CK highlighter

Scandal eyes eyeliner

Collection eyeshadow palette

I absolutely loved everything I received and Helena really chose well! I have used the Rimmel lipstick and I'm seriously in love!!! The eyeliner is amazing and the CK highlighter has become one of my must have products!

I want to say a massive thank you to Lucie and Sam for arranging the whole thing - it really was amazing and I hope that you do one again! 

And huge thanks to Helena for my items!! 

Have you tried any of the items that I got?

Valentines Box Swap / Are you taking part?

Hey beauties, I hope you're all okay. Sorry for the lack of posts recently, as I mentioned in my previous post I'm actually away at the moment. We have just come to a new hotel and there is a huge computer part, so whiles the weather is awful, I'm taking the time to do some posting and catching up! 

I recently saw on my Bloglovin' feed a post about a Valentines box swap. When I looked at the post, the first thing that caught my eye was 'open to anyone'. I was sold. This was my chance to take part in a real box swap!! Around Christmas when I first started DaisyDaisyxxo, I saw a lot of buzz around a Christmas box swap which some bloggers had organized but I was too late to sign up *sad face!!*

The lovely Lucie at fatbeautyx and Samantha at Mascara and Cakes have organised this Valentines box swap for UK residents only. Luckily I fall into this category, so I'm superrrr excited that I can actually take part! 

How can I take part?

Its very easy! All you have to do is head over to this post and leave a comment with your email address. Either Lucie or Samantha will contact you to find out some details about yourself. You then have until January 30th to let all your follows know about the Valentines box swap, then on January 31st you will recieve an email with your valentines name and details. You then have just under 2 weeks to go out and get all your stuff for your swap to the value of £20 (or to the nearest  penny, make it fair!!), send it off and eagerly await your box back. 

I can't wait to get started with my shopping. I think it's going to be a great way to make some new blogger friends (something which I haven't yet cracked!)

What are you waiting for?! Sign up today!!
