Glossybox: July 2013 - Seaside Splash!

Saturday, July 13, 2013

Another month, another box. This month Glossybox has gone with a bright beach-themed box, which I am loving by the way! The turquoise and orange go perfectly together and make for one jazzy box ;)

So, what lovely treats am I in store for this month? Let's take a peek...

ESSIE SLEEK STICK NAIL WRAPS IN 'A TO ZEBRA' (£9.99):

In the past when I've tried nail wraps, I've hated them (see here!) However, I am willing to give them another go, not only because they look pretty snazzy, but also because they're from one of my favourite nail brands, Essie. I'll let ou know how they go, but frankly, I'm not optimistic. 

ALTERNA BAMBOO STYLE TOUSLED TEXTURE MIST (£7.66 for sample):

What's summer without tousled, wind-blown beach waves? Enter Alterna's Boho Waves Tousled Texture Mist! I am already blessed with quite wavy, voluminous hair so I'm interested to see how this works for me.

COOLA MINERAL FACE SPF 20 UNSCENTED CREAM: (about £4.50 for sample):

This product doesn't exactly thrill me but it is always useful to have suncream on you, and this is a perfect pocket-sized sample. I've heard good things about this brand, so I plan to keep it in my bag whilst in HK and give it a go.

ANATOMICALS 'SPRAY MISTY FOR ME' FACIAL SPRITZ (£6.00)

These face mists are always so useful for summer, and since I'm going to Hong Kong on Monday, this is definitely going to get used. They are so cooling and refreshing, and this one in particular smells divine, like lavender and aloe vera. These are also generally good for your skin, so it's refreshing and beneficial in one. I'm also happy that this is a good size as I can predict that it's going to used a lot.

SLEEK POUT PAINTS IN 'MILKSHAKE' & 'PEEK-A-BLOO' (£4.99 each):

I am a huge fan of these lip products. I actually have one of these shades, but believe it or not, it's the blue shade! Luckily I left it back at uni so I'm not carrying duplicates! The blue may appear strange, but it's a great colour for mixing with both Sleek Pout Paints and OCC Lip Tars. The 'Milkshake' coral shade also looks really pretty and perfect for summer.
