GlossyBox June 2013

Beauty Boxes.. my little monthly 'prezzie in the post' to myself- from myself. I have to admit I do get a little excited when I see the postman coming up to the door with my little box in hand! After subscribing to a few I have narrowed my monthly subscriptions to just 2 boxes- GlossyBox and BirchBox.

So whats in June's  Glossybox....

 
Glossy Box subscription Costs £10 +postage


RRP £8.49




GOSH Growth Mascara- For the past 6 months I have been addicted to Hollywood Lashes (Full review and pics to come shortly) so mascara has not been top of my shopping list for some time- I will however be repurchasing this little beauty when the time comes. Although I only need now use mascara on my lower lashes- this really does stand out as a fantastic mascara- it creates length and does a wonderful job of separating the lashes.



RRP £5.99



 Organic Surge Shine Boost Conditioner- This conditioner is a 200ml full size product and after using it for the past 4 days I can honestly say I love it- I'm a bit of a nightmare for swapping and changing my haircare products on a weekly basis so I'm not sure I will jump at repurchasing, but I would recommend giving it a try- it smells lush too!




RRP £5.99




Figs and Rouge Tinted lip balm- This Lip balm comes in a 12.5 tube (RRP £5.00) I have a box full of Lip balms so they really have to shine (excuse the pun) for me to repurchase. This lip balm is a lovely sweet cherry flavor and gives a nice red sheen to the lips when applied. It is a little thick and slightly on the 'gloopy' side for me- I will certainly use it, possibly as a before bed lip balm but I don't think it will be one I will repurchase.







RRP £10.50



Monu Spa hand cream- This is a full size 50ml Product (RRP £10.50) and it smells divine! I love creams and lotions that have that natural essential oils smell to them. Working in a hospital I am constantly washing and using that awfully drying alcohol gel on my hands- so my hands are always grateful for some moisture! I really like this hand cream, it smells nice, has a lovely consistency and absorbs quickly too. Its also a perfect size to keep in my uniform pocket at work.  





 




MeMeMe Nail polish in colour 'Innocent'- This nail varnish looks very pale, almost white in the bottle- but when applied to the nail is an extremely natural colour- almost clear even, ideal for work or when a very subtle look is required. (RRP £5.00)










So there it is- Junes Glossy Box. With 5 out of 5 items being full size the box value comes to £34.98!!! I will use all of the products in this box and can confidently say this box is well well worth the £10 subscription fee!
