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 4^th 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?

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...

TAG - The Good, The Bad, The British

Photo: EnchantedIvyGifts.co.uk I was browsing my subscription videos on YouTube and I saw that EssieButton uploaded a new TAG video called The British Tag, and after watching it I decided I wanted to do the TAG too. I believe this TAG was created by BeautyCrush , so all credit is awarded to her. 1. How many cups of tea do you have a day & how do you take it? I drink around three cups of tea a day and I take mine with one small sugar and a bit of semi-skimmed milk. Tea is also the only hot drink I like. 2. What is your favourite part of a Sunday roast? My favourite part of a roast is the vegetables. I love kale & leak and broccoli! My Mum’s gravy is also to die for. 3. What is your favourite dunking biscuit? I don’t dunk biscuits anymore, but when I was younger I loved dunking Bourbons. If I was to dunk a biscuit now, I would probably choose either a Rich Tea or plain Digestive. 4. What is your quintessential British pastime? I love visiting ruins/m...
