What's in my Glossybox? June 2014

Now this month has moved fast and my trip to Chester has meant that I've felt out of sync so I certainly hadn't thought about any beauty boxes but it's that time again, today I received my Glossybox. Now I've felt a bit disappointed with them recently although loved last months theme, I just think they've had a hard time competing for my affection with Birchbox around, however, most of the contents I love this month and it's really nicely put together.

So what did I get? I won't ruin it for anyone that doesn't want to see so the contents of my box is featured after the cut.

nailgirls 3-in-1 Base & Topcoat + Nail Strengthener 10ml (Full size: £13.50 for 15ml)

Now colours are nice when receiving nail varnishes BUT a good clear coat is universally useful and I'm always happy to receive something from a new launch so I will be putting this to good use!

TeeezTrend Cosmetics Beautiful Flat Stiff Brush full size (Full size: €19)

Now this is a bit of a weird one for me, starting with the plus points, the packaging is beyond amazing, I love it, but sadly I don't like the fact that it is made out of natural hair. It's goat hair which makes me feel uneasy as I don't know whether it was humanely removed from a live goat (unlikely), I don't wear wool, leather, etc. so I'm going to have to chuck this away which is a shame because the packaging really is special.

Embelleze Novex Brazilian Keratin 100g (Full size: £24.99 for 1kg)

I wasn't sure what on earth this product was when I spotted it in the box, first thought was that it was some weird tub of pills, fortunately it's a hair product, a gorgeous smelling one at that. It's a rather generous size at 100g, I can get many uses out of this their full size tub must be absolutely massive though! Although as with a lot of protein type hair products it does contain lactic acid.

So Susan Cosmetics Concealer Quad 4g (Full size: £16.95 for 4g)

I've been hearing good things about So Susan Cosmetics but this is the first item I've tried and it's a product I should have picked up a long time ago. Now I just use the singular colour concealer which is okay but it doesn't cover as effectively as a few different tones would do. This is where this quad steps in, making it easier to get a more even tone and better coverage.

Roger&Gallet Fleur de Figuier Eau Fraîche Fragrance 10ml (Full size: £32.00 for 100ml)
This is a rather generous sample of a really beautiful, fresh but punchy scent. Something in it makes me think of blackcurrant for some reason but I think that could be the combination of fig and grapefruit. It's a really nice refreshing perfume perfect for summer.


Now although I was disappointed with the brush the So Susan quad and Roger&Gallet fragrance totally make up for it, this makes me a bit more positive and excited to see what I get in my Glossybox next month!
