Glossybox #15 - June 2015

The preview for June’s box didn’t seem very interesting, so I wasn’t really expecting much. I was a little surprised to find what was included, because it was a good mix of products for a picky person like me, who is really only interested in make-up. Here is what I received this month:-

MONU Spa Rosewood Reviving Mist

| 50ml - £11.95 |

This product sounds quite versatile, as you can use it to refresh, fix and lightly fragrant your face. I am interested in trying this and on the plus side, it smells quite nice too.

Halo Fragrance Free Facial Wipes

| 10 Wipes - £1.20 |

I will definitely use these, but as far as I can tell it doesn’t promise anything special.

Kueshi Anticellulite Booster

| 150ml - £14.55 |

This seems like quite an interesting product and it smells great. I cannot wait to test this.

Essence The Gel Nail Polish in 11) 4 Ever Young

| 8ml - £1.71 |

I have already swatched this and it is a beautiful colour. The formula looks promising and the brush is quite flat and squared.

Glossybox Flash Tattoos

| 12 Tattoos - £6.50 |

These are not something I am excited about. I’m quite surprised they were included actually, as they seem a bit juvenile to me. I will most likely use them, but just to mess about and get rid of them.

I do actually like this box. I will get use out of everything included, although I am a little disappointed with the tattoos. I’m mostly interested in make-up, as hair products and most body products don’t really interest me, but the ones that were included in this month’s box do seem useful and like something I wouldn’t mind trying (although I wouldn’t have purchased them myself to try!).

I am definitely looking forward to July’s box because it is supposed to be French inspired!

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...
