This year the goodie bag was said to have a retail value of £180 - an absolute bargain if you consider the ticket price is about £40! Not just full of testers and sample products either, there are a number of full-sized products tucked inside.
The bag itself is a super-glam, reusable shopping tote in metallic rose gold. On both sides there is a quote that says 'My Beauty. My Rules.' I think I'll probably take mine away on holiday as a beach bag!
So you've seen my run down of what to expect at the Glamour Beauty Festival, now it's time to see exactly what's inside the goodie bag, and find out if it's really worth it or not. (Spoiler alert. It totally is).
There's so much inside I'm going to list it in categories, grouping the products together.

Having gone to the event with a friend, I know that whilst we both got exactly the same products from the brands inside our bags, some of the shades of the products varied. I did see some people online saying that they were upset that some of the shades weren't personalised to their skin type or colourings, but I think that's to be expected when giving out goodie bags on mass.
For me personally there are so many wonderful products inside, that I won't even worry that the concealer is too dark for my skin tone, or that the rose gold hair colour is unlikely to show up on my dark brown hair. I'm just happy I've got enough goodies to review in the coming months!
Did you go to the Glamour Beauty Festival? What're your thoughts on the goodie bags and the event itself? Let me know in the comments below!
Until next time..
