Glossybox June Edition

I have seen various offers for Glossybox, a beauty subscription box. Every month, a selection of beauty products and samples are collected for £10 plus £3.25 p+p. Subscription packages are also available for 3, 6 and 12 months.

Each box is usually centred around a theme. This month is the "Festival Edit".

What gets delivered is a sleek pink box. Open it and inside is a gift card for Hello Fresh, a website that pieces together recipe cards and ingredients for your convenience. Also inside is a leaflet which explains what products are included. The beauty products are wrapped up neatly in pink tissue paper and sealed with black ribbon. Opening it feels like a very special occasion.

Included are three full size products - Glossybox Flash Tattoos, Essence Gel Nail Polish and Kueshi Anticellulite Booster - and two sample products - Halo Facial Wipes and Monu Spa Reviving Mist.

The Kueshi Anticellulite Booster usually retails at £14.55. The use of natural ingredients and antioxidants prevent anticellulite as well as toning the legs.

The Glossybox Flash Tattoos are said to resemble the next A-lister trend. Easy to apply and remove, they seem like a great idea for festival or parties. These retail at £6.50.

The Halo Fragance Free Facial Wipes (worth £1.20) are a handy way to remove make up and kind to your skin.

The Monuspa Rosewood Reviving Mist (retails £11.95 for full size) contains a mix of essential oils such as geranium and lemon. I think this would be quite useful for summer to keep the skin hydrated, feeling refreshed and happy!

Just to finish is the Essence Nail Polish (£1.71). It is said to give a long lasting manicure and the bold and bright colour is fun for this season.

I think the product selection is quite good in the month's edition. The inclusion of three full size products is a bonus for me, and Glossybox offers a little bit of everything to try. The only issue is the price. I think it is a little expensive, and there are other beauty boxes which are a little cheaper and kinder to your purse.

Another issue is that I used a voucher code to obtain a free lip tint gift, but this was not included in this box. I have emailed Glossybox and am awaiting their reply.

My Little Box May 2015: The Provence Box

I saw adverts for My Little Box on Facebook, checked out its website, and gave it a go! For £11 a month and £3.95 P + P (although I used the SPRINGTIME code to gain free postage for the first box), you receive a box containing beauty samples and products, a magazine, a print and lifestyle items too. I received my first box a few days ago, and was it worth the wait? I am not too sure. First of all, here is the box... Included is a drawstring canvas bag containing the beauty products, a box entitled "Sunny things inside" and the print, dress-up doll magnets and the magazine tied up with a ribbon. One of the beauty products, the shower gel, was already open and had leaked inside the bag, which was annoying. The beauty products are actually small samples, showcasing the best of L'Occitane, a well known and good quality brand. However, most of these products have been given away as a free gift from L'Occitane themselves. You can already get i

Travels in Bath!

A few months ago, I had the opportunity to visit Bath. I spent about a day and a half in Bath, not enough time to see everything sadly, but I had the chance to see some of the great sights! Bath is great in that it is easy to walk through. Having arrived at the train station, the first stop was the Sally Lunn Museum. Having done my research on the internet, the Sally Lunn bun is very famous in Bath. Every tourist is advised to try one! Five minutes we arrived - the building consists of three levels of dining areas, and there is a museum and gift shop on the lower level. The building itself is quite historic and retains much of its quaint charm. Upon entering, the place is quite busy - we manage to sneak a table in the corner by the window. What is said to be unique about the bun is that it is great tasting as a savoury or sweet dish. Following that, we ordered the smoked salmon bun and the dulce con leche bun. A cup of the Sally Lunn blend loose leaf tea Dulce con leche -

Pokemon Sun

I started playing Pokemon Sun last month and at first, I thought it wouldn’t be as good as Omega Ruby, which I throughly enjoyed. However, I am really enjoying it! As you progress, the story is so interesting and I like how the trials are so challenging. I found Kiawe and Mallow’s trial particularly tough! At the minute, I am about to take on the new Pokemon league (?). I also found a shiny Absol, which was so difficult to catch. A normal Absol was hard to catch in the first place and it took a great deal of Ultra Balls to catch her!
