Glossybox June 2014 - Review

My review on the latest Glossybox is sooo very late this month due to me sunning myself in the South of France for two weeks. It's always nice to come home to a pile of parcels to sift through and one of them being the latest Glossybox.


This months Glossybox doesn't really have a theme as such it's simply a collection of beauty items selected for a Spring box. The usual magazine and information card are included. 




First impressions are that it's a nice selection of items, I randomly thought as I opened the box it also looks quite colourful! 




What was in my Glossybox this month? 

The first item is a new product, So Susan Cosmetics Concealer Quad (full size received RRP £20.00) I think the price is  quite expensive for the item if this is full size, it seems quite small. Nice item though, I like the idea of having four different concealers to use for different problem areas. Can also be used as a contouring kit which I've been meaning to have a go at for ages!




Next up is a fab item, my favourite this month I think. It's a Flat Stiff Makeup Brush by Teez Trend Cosmetics (full size received RRP 19 Euros). I've not heard of the brand before but first impressions it's feels and looks great quality.This brush is ideal for applying cream or powder eyeshadow, not only is it a fab brush to use but it is oh so pretty! 




The third item received is a really good sized fragrance sample, much better than the poxy vials than have been sent in the past. This is a fragrance sample by the company Roger and Gallet, scent Fleur de Figuier Eau Fraiche (RRP £32.00 for 100ml, 10ml received). it smells really lovely, fresh and floral and a perfect size for me to pop in the car and use at work, it's so lovely I would consider purchasing the full size version. 



The next item in the box was my least favourite this month a 3 in 1 Base/Topcoat and Nail Strengthener by Nailgirls (RRP £13.50 for 15ml full size received). I don't think I would pay full  price for this item it doesn't feel half as good quality as Nails Inc or OPI however always a very useful item to be sent as I go through these kind of products at super speed!



Last but not least I received Embelleze Novex Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment (RRP £24.99 for 1kg, received a small tub). This is a Vitamin E enriched treatment that replenishes the hairs natural proteins and leaves it healthier, shinier and smoother. I haven't had the chance to use it yet but it smells lovely and I hope it does what it says it will!



Overall I think this box is pretty good, a nice selection of items and I'll make use of every single item so all in all top marks to Glossybox this month!
