Glossybox #8 - June 2014

I re-subscribed! The last box I had was the Valentine’s Day special and it now seems like a lifetime ago I had a Glossybox. I was suckered into re-subscribing because I was e-mailed an offer. It you bought the June box, you got the July box free. Naturally, I just had to take advantage of the offer. My free July box will be a 4th July special, so I am excited for that! Here is what I got in my June box:-

nailgirls 3-in-1 Base/Topcoat & Nail Strengthener
| £13.50 – nailgirls.co.uk |
I’ve not heard of this brand before and the product does sound interesting. It is full size and I am always on the lookout for new nail care products. I am eager to try this.

got2b Rise ‘n Shine Soufflé
| £4.07 (100ml) – got2be.schwarzkopf.co.uk |
This product smells really nice, but I will probably give it to my Sister. I’m not really a hair kind of girl, so this product would be wasted on me. If my Sister is not interested in it, I may give it a try.

Teeez Trend Cosmetics Beautiful Flat Stiff Brush
| €19 – Teeez.eu |
I’ve not heard of this brand before either, but I have seen this brush advertised online before. It has a very cute design and it is definitely something I would get use out of. I can’t wait to add it to my expanding brush collection.

Roger&Gallet Fleur de Figuier Discovery Ritual
Shower Cream, Body Lotion and Eau Fraîche Fragrance
| £9.50 (200ml), £13 (200ml) & £32 (100ml) – roger-gallet.co.uk |
Yet another brand I have not heard before. The scent is surprisingly nice and not my typical scent. It is very strong and fruity. I will definitely use and enjoy the cream and perfume, but I am not really excited about the body lotion.

So Susan Cosmetics Universal Blush
| £17.95 – SoSusan.com
This brand is new to me and this particular product seems very interesting to me. I am excited to try it and I hope it adapts well to my skins chemistry and still makes my cheekbones look naturally flushed and not overly coloured!

This is one of my favourite Glossyboxes so far and I think my favourite product has to be the So Susan blush. I am glad I decided to re-subscribe and take advantage of the offer. I am now very excited to see what July has to offer me!

What are your thoughts on this box?

BECCA X Barbie Ferreira Prismatica Light Essentials Kit

I bought this set because the highlighters are mini and the packaging is purple. I have previously tried Champagne Pop (limited edition bronze glitter packaging) and I decluttered it last year. I remember not really getting the hype around it. I wanted to try the formula again in different shades and what is more perfect than minis for trying something out? The whole BECCA Prismatica Collection is in collaboration with Barbie Ferreira, who I believe is an American Actress/Model. I had never heard of her before and only looked her up for the purpose of this post. There was a Face Palette, Essentials Kit and Cheek Lip Duo Set. I believe the collection has now sold out, but the highlighters are still available as singles in the regular BECCA packaging. ABOUT THE PRODUCT The packaging is sleek, round and compact. The colour of the packaging for this collection is described as prismatic lilac. There is also a mini mirror inside the compact. This set originally retailed for £30.00 and it has...

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette  for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara  in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...

KALEIDOS Futurism VI: Lunar Lavender Palette

This is my second KALEIDOS palette and I bought it from the same Depop seller as last time. I also purchased the Futurism I: Sci-Fi Green and Futurism VII: Sashimi City Palettes, reviews on those will be coming soon. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a long thin rectangle shape and the concept reminds me of a wardrobe. There is a purple, pink and rose gold coral (the reef kind) and cloud theme all over the packaging. It has a magnetic closing and you open up the left side first and then the right side to reveal the circular eyeshadow pans and long thin mirror inside. The outside theme continues to the inside, but the colours are lilac, pink, peach and orange with rose gold. The eyeshadow names come printed on a plastic sheet. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 1.33g eyeshadows/pressed pigments in Matte (M), Duo-Chrome (DC) and Shimmer (S) finishes.   ·          Rich and Velvety Texture ·          Smo...
