Glossybox June 2014 - What's Inside Mine
June's Glossybox has the theme of Summer ready. Glossybox are also guaranteeing 3 out of 5 full size products in the box with a minimum box value of £45.
So what was in mine ...
L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes mascara £10.99
This was a welcome inclusion. It is one of my favourite mascaras.. although in Summer because of hay fever I need a waterproof mascara.
Teez Beautiful Eyes Flat Stiff Brush €19
This is a new brand for me but the product features a super pretty print brush handle and soft natural bristles. I haven't used this yet but I will.
Rituals Qi Gong Organic White Lotus & Yi Yi Ren 24h Anti-perspirant spray 50ml £3.50
A travel size version of the full size version that is available to buy. This smells very fresh and light. I will use this for a weekend away.
Nail Girls 3 in 1 Base Coat/Top Coat and Nail Strengthener 10ml £13.50
I rarely apply a top coat to my nail polish so I am looking forward to giving this a go and seeing if it adds super glossy shine to my polish.
So Susan Concealer Quad £17
Another new brand for me to discover. This small quad contains 4 concealer shades to cover dark circles, blemishes and minor imperfections. I like the range of shades, it could carry me through all seasons.
Final thoughts
Value wise this is a stonking box and I did essentially receive 4 full size products and a travel size one. In addition the products are all ones that I would use or at least give a go.
Great box for June.
Glossybox costs £10 plus P+P

Rituals T'ai Chi White Lotus & Green Tea Shower Foam
Rituals T'ai Chi White Lotus & Green Tea Foaming Shower Gel is a gel to foam body wash. Just a little spray of the pump starts a chain of humongous foam, so do it carefully! It has a gorgeous fresh scent and leaves skin feeling silky soft without drying it out. Soft and gentle, I love this body wash for its delicious green tea scent. Just reading the ingredients makes me feel healthy. A great way to start 2014 :)
Rituals T'a Chi Shower Form costs £8.50 for 250ml

What's Inside My December GlossyBox
The postman knocked again this month with a delivery of the December GLOSSYBOX. The first thing to note is the festive red box, very nice!
As this was the Christmas edition box it was supposed to contain products to get you in the mood for a party and a few. I have got to say I really liked the December box. Here is what was inside
A full size Rituals Yogi Flow Foaming Shower Gel - Indian Rose and Sweet Almond Oil - £6.50/200ml
I haven't tried Rituals products yet but did spot one of their shops when out shopping recently and had planned to go in and pick something up so this is great, it smells incredible too.
Deborah Lippman Mini Nail Varnish in Razzle Dazzle and a Stripped To Go Sachet - A full size bottle would cost £14.
I have tried a few Deborah Lippman Varnishes so it is not a new brand to me, nevertheless the brand does induce excitement.
Razzle Dazzle is ideal for parties, a pretty glittery shade of dark red, almost wine in colour with flashes of brighter flecks. I am not a huge glitter fan (I save it for special occasions as I hate removing it) so this mini size is perfect. I love that included in the box is a nail polish remover. I hope it removes the glitter with ease!
Cargo Cosmetics Classic Lip Gloss (mini) in shade Morocco - Full Size £10
As a lip gloss fanatic I loved the inclusion of a gloss in the box, I haven't tried Cargo either so that was an added bonus. I really like the shade which is a pinky/brown with a slight sparkle. I have worn it a few times, there is no stickiness either. As it is so tiny I have nearly finished it.
BLINK+GO Eyeshadow and Blush Palette - Full Size £14.95
I have not heard of Blink+Go so this is a new brand to discover. I love the concept of this palette but I am pretty certain that I would never have chosen this particular combination as the colours look so bright. However on swatching they are actually nice and not as scary as they look in the palette, and I am looking forward to experimenting with a bit of colour on my eyes. The gold and green in particular stand out.
As I am also a bit of a blush addict, the addition of blush is very welcome..
The final product in the box is a small pot of Bionova Eye Wrinkle Treatment. A full size pot of eye cream costs £43.
Bionova are another brand that I have yet to discover, GlossyBox are doing a fab job in searching out products for its subscribers to try. I look forward to trying this premium eye cream out, it seems from reading that it is tailored to my age bracket, so here is hoping it works for me!
