June 2015 Glossybox

It doesn't seem that long since I reviews the May Glossybox but the June one seemed to come so fast this month. This month's box was the Festival Edit and was full of products you could take to a festival. I'm not heading to any festivals this year but loved trying out these products regardless.


MONU Spa - Rosewood Reviving Mist - Full Size £11.95
I own a few MONU products, all from Glossybox so I like trying out different things from the brand. I'll be honest I'm not a fan of this MONU spa Rosewood Reviving Mist scent, anything rose scented isn't really for me. I did however spritz this on my face one afternoon when I was sitting in the garden and it definitely left me feeling refreshed. I haven't yet tried it to set make up, but that's also something you can use this product for.


Glossybox Flash Tattoos - Full Size £6.50
I've seen these Flash Tattoos everywhere recently and they're totally on trend and would be great for festival fashion. I'll be honest, I can't see myself wearing the Glossybox logo tattoos, but I tried one out for the purpose of this blog post. These were super easy to apply. The other ones would look great around your wrist paired with a few bracelets.



Halo - Fragrance Free Wipes - Full Size £1.20
This is another great festival essential. The Halo wipes come in a handy travel size pack containing 10 wipes and is great for your handbag. I love that these are fragrance free as I'm not overly keen on using heavily scented items on my face. These wipes are a decent size and good quality and great for refreshing your face or removing make up after a long day.


Kueshi -Anticellulite Booster - Full Size £14.55
This Kueshi Anticellulite Booster claims to tone your skin and fight off dimples. Massage into your legs twice a day and have summer ready legs, great news if you plan on wearing shorts to all the Festivals or throughout the summer season. This cream is lightly scented. I haven't really got cellulite so I can't say for sure if it gets rid of it, but it did leave my skin feeling really soft.


Essence - Gel Nail Polish - Full Size £1.71
This Essence Gel Polish is a lot cheaper than I expected it to be! I received the colour prince charming which is an aqua green colour. I think this would have worked a lot better if I had the gel base and top coat to go with this and I would really like to try more colours and see if it makes a difference using all 3 coats. The polish took ages to dry and I kept chipping it so this isn't a product I would use if you're in a rush. This is available at my local Wilkinsons so I might pop in and see if I can pick some more colours up.

January 2015 Glossybox

It's that time again! I received my Glossybox just over a week ago now so I've had time to trial all of the products and let you know what I think. Please let me know what you got in your boxes, I love reading other people's Glossybox reviews!


Naked Lips

Naked Lips - Organic Lip Balm Superfruits - Full Size €5
This lip balm is 100% natural and is really fruity. The 'flavour' I received was Blueberry, acai, goji, baobab and pomegranate. This really does leave my lips feeling nourished and gives them a light glossy sheen. I have millions of lip balms and usually just use Vaseline but I think I will switch to this one because I love how it tastes, it reminds me of summer and cocktails!


Nicka K Blush Review

Nicka K New York - Colorluxe Powder Blush - Full Sized €8.95
I received this blush in the colour Romantic which is a really soft pink colour. The idea of this packaging is to stop powder explosions at the bottom of your handbag. When I opened this it went everywhere, the puff kind of exploded. That's when I realised that you're only supposed to take off the gold lid, not the whole thing..oops! I really like the colour of this and it applied really well and really makes your eyes pop. This is great value for the amount of product you get too.

Jelly Pong Pong All Over Glow

Jelly Pong Pong - All Over Glow - Full  Size £10 (15g)
I really like the packaging on this product, the design is eye catching. When I first tried this product I put way too much on, you really do only need the tiniest of blobs. The colour of this is extremely shimmery and I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for day to day use but for a night out this is going to be perfect. It especially looks nice when the light hits it, great for cheekbones and even on the body on your collarbones I think this would work well. Oh, and this stays put for AGES.

MeMeMe Clay Eyeliner

MeMeMe Eye Line Pencil in Clay - Full Size £4
This pencil is actually really nice to use despite it not being a colour I would usually pick up. It smudges really nicely and seems to stay put on the waterline for quite some time. It makes a nice change from a black eyeliner and I find myself using this and creating a brown smoky eye day to day.

Kueshi Face Toner Review

Kueshi Natural and Pleasant Cosmetics - Revitalizing Face Toner - Full Size €10.70
I've never really used a toner before so I was looking forward to trying this out. The colour intrigued me, it looks like it's going to smell a bit chemically but it's made with natural ingredients. I can't describe what this smells like but it is quite strong and I usually prefer to use unscented products on my face. I can't say I noticed much of a difference in my skin but I really like how refreshing it is and it wakes me up in the morning so I will continue to use this until it has ran out.

Great box Glossybox, I think I'll use all of these items.
