This months Roccabox is comes without a collaboration with a blogger but instead is designed to have you ready for London Fashion Week. If you have ever been to LFW, then you will know too well that it is total madness, rushing from one show to another in hot, crowded places and you do need to ensure that you have yourself some amazing beauty products to hand to keep you cool, de-stressed and looking your best.
In this months box we have a mixture of skincare and makeup. Some of the brands you will recognise and perhaps one or two that you don't.
First out of the box is Scentered De-Stress Therapy Balm - Definitely a handbag essential if you have a stressful life, job or are just stressed.
This 100% natural therapy balm is designed to help ease tension, soothe the mind, lift the spirits and in doing so it uses the uplifting citrus herbal top notes of Chamomile, Neroli, Mandarin, Rosemary and Sweet Brazilian Orange, a balancing floral heart of Jasmine, Rose, Mimosa and Lavandin, and a grounding Cedarwood base. This is worth around £5.50 and you can buy full sized versions right here.
The second product comes Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Daily Cleansing Pads - With after show parties, alcohol and long days at LFW, ensuring your skin looks and feels as good as it can, needs a bit of TLC. These pads are soaked in Glycolic Acid to exfoliate and retexture the skin to reveal that brighter, smoother complexion and with added Hyaluronic Acid to give thirsty skin a moisture boost and dewy glow.
What I love about this little lot is that it is a perfect handsized mini and it retails for around £1.50 here.
The third item is a Shower Gel from Patisserie De bain - I adore this brand it is so kitsch and cute and this shower gel smells just delightful, definitely good enough to eat.
Smelling of sweet Vanilla, which thankfully isn't too powerful it gives me headache, it does create a lovely creamy lather and leaves your bathroom smelling just divine. These shower gels, which come in an array of scents retail for around £2.99.
One of the makeup brush brands I have really enjoyed using are Blank Canvas and I was delighted to see brush F01 in my Roccabox as it is one I don't have and have never tried.
Described as being a multi-purpose face brush from the Dimensions Series, it is not only handmade from extra soft, high quality anti-bacterial, easy to clean synthetic fibres, this brush is also vegan friendly. I love the short handle which is quite rounded and easy to hold, it is also a fabulous hot pink shade. Blank Canvas have a lot of makeup brushes within their collection and this one retails for around £14 but more a more indepth review then Zoe over at MamafulZo has a great one.
The final item from the box comes from a brand I have never come across before and it is a Peony Cosmetics Eyeshadow Trio Palette - Described as being a highly pigmented palette of 3 deep, after-dark shades in a nourishing, natural base that keeps it blendable & velvety smooth.
These wearable shadows are formulated with silicon-coated micronized pigments & healthy kaolin clay for a seamless, silky texture that lasts up to 8 hours. I love how tiny this palette is, it is perfect for having in your handbag because it takes up very little space and still manages to have a mirror on the lip so you can use it on the go. It has a retail value of $18 here.
I love the theme of this months box, it is very apt for London and I love the thought that has gone in to choosing products which you can chuck in your handbag and head off out the door the LFW, except for the shower gel of course which just helps your skin smell fabulous after showering.
Roccabox, if you have never come across it before, it is a Beauty Box which comes together by collaborating with bloggers (or Influencers if you prefer) who then create a box of products which they love. For me, in a world saturated with Beauty boxes, Roccabox it makes it a little bit different to any other beauty box I have subscribed too and it is an intriguing concept that has introduced me to some amazing products, brands and some new bloggers! You can buy this months box right here for just £10 and find further information about subscribing too.
