GlossyBox July Edit

This months Glossybox is one you cannot miss, the bright coral box shouting 'Hello Summer' capturing your attention.  This month, the team behind the scene at Glossybox have decided to help keep travelling as chic as possible with the contents of the box being travel-friendly sizes, summer problem solvers and makeup that can stand the heat.

The first item out of the box is the Bellapierre Banana Powder.  I have used Banana setting powder for years as makeup artist friend of mine  introduced me to how amazing it can be.  
GlossyBox July Edit
To all intents and purposes, Banana Powder is a essentially a colour-correcting setting powder and it has a yellow hue to counteract any redness or discoloration. Ideal for setting under eye makeup, spot correcting, or even used as a base for your eyeshadow. This product actually retails for £25!

Next comes MONUspa with their Soothing After Sun Lotion. This lotion uses the active ingredients of Aloe Vera that reduces redness and restores hydration and Vitamin E  which helps to protect from environmental aggressors alongside Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter which is incredibly hydrating and nourishing.

As an after-sun lotion, it isn't as thick as I was expecting it to be and it is the perfect travel sized companion for a a few days away in the Sunshine.

If cute Lip Balms are your thing then this Macaroon Tint Balm is for you! In shade Crushed Berry. Paraben free and from Cute Balms, this Tint Balm not only gives your lips a lick of colour but it also doubles up as a cheek stain too.  
GlossyBox July Edit
Smelling incredible berry like, there isn't anything to dislike about the balm, it is just incredible cute and retails for £5.99.

If like me you like your hair off your face and the back of your neck in the heat, then these spiral hairbands from Papanga might just be a life saver. Available in two sizes and a wide range of colours. 
GlossyBox July Edit
Like similar products out there, the hairband spirals "grip" your hair instead of compressing it like conventional hairbands do and it leads to less pressure which is not only good for your hair but in turn helps to prevent headaches and tangles. By doing away with metal fastenings, Papanga® spiral hairbands do not cause any split ends or hair breakage either. They range in price from £1.69 right up to being able to purchase multiple hair bands on Amazon.

The final item in this months box comes from Spectrum Brushes and it is the A10 Small Fan Brush. A Fan Brush is descried as being a multi-tasking brush and you can use it to lightly apply highlighter or powder products for a soft focus finish, or clear the under eye skin after applying eye shadows by sweeping away any excess product.

The brush is made using premium cruelty free synthetic bristles and is incredible soft to the touch and on the skin. Priced at £4.99 it isn't going to break the bank if you haven't got one of these brushes within your collection.
