This June, Glossybox is inviting you to join them for their Summer Soiree. June is the month the weather gets warmer, Spring comes to an end and Summer arrives, usually. Whether you have a wedding to go to, the races, a BBQ, garden party or even down to the beach, the iconic pink Glossybox for the month of June is full of essential products you can slip into your clutch bag, your weekend bag or to keep you looking your best on the go.
The first item in the box comes from Avant Skincare with the Pro Perfecting Collagen Touche Eclat Primer (£85). Described as being a silky, lightweight, universal primer that instantly perfects the look of skin.
Given its price, this Primer clearly sits within the high-end category and it is formulated with two key ingredients which work to not only improve the elasticity of your skin but also reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and they are:
- Cetiol® Sensoft: a versatile oil that balances the pH of your skin and makes your complexion feel softer.
- Isododecane: a soothing ingredient that coats the skin in a protective layer, reducing the appearance of patchy skin and helping your complexion to stay hydrated for longer.
What I have liked about this primer so far is how it sits on the skin, it is lightweight, it is silky and it doesn't make my skin feel greasy or tacky to the touch.
The second item within the box comes from Hask and it is the Unwined Deep Conditioner called Sauvignon Blanc (£3.99).
Free of Sulfates, Parabens, Phthalates, Gluten, Drying Alcohol and Artificial colours, this deep conditioner, which is wine based and it is designed to add shine and nourish using a whole host of incredible ingredients which include:
- Wine Extract - packed with antioxidants to help rejuvenate, strengthen and soften
- Resveratrol - found in the skin of grapes, helps protect and restore hair
- Grape Seed Oil - rich in vitamin E helps smooth cuticles & prevent frizz
- Apple Extract - rich in vitamins to promote healthy-looking hair
- Watermelon Extract - helps nourish & moisturise
I am a huge fan of making sure I use a deep conditioning treatment, hair mask or even an oil once a week to give my hair some TLC. Rather than smelling like a bottle of wine, this mask is freshly scented with a hint fruit and because the sachet is 50g there is enough product for two treatments and I was really impressed with how silky smooth my hair was after just one use.
Having dealt with both skincare and haircare, makeup now becomes the feature of the remaining products within the box and they include a contour palette, a matte lip creme and an eyeshadow chubby stix.
From ModelCo. we have the inclusion of a Lip Creme Matte in shade Peachy Nude (£15). It is described as being a full coverage, long-lasting and highly-pigmented lipstick that glides on effortlessly to give your pout a rich, matte coverage. Upon application, this Lip Creme Matte dries to a matte without leaving the lips feeling dry and taut.
This Peachy Nude Lip Creme Matte has warm, pink undertones which softens the peachy tones and makes for an incredibly beautiful shade for the summer. It also has a scent of peaches when applied.
Meech n Mia is a brand I had never come across until Glossybox and this Chubby Stix eyeshadow (£12.99) is quite something. I have shade #054 which is a beautiful gold and not only is this Chubby Stix is highly pigmented and what I wasn't expecting, is how creamy it is.
A handy size for putting in your handbag, what I like about this product is that you can use it on its own for a pop of gold colour or you can use it with other products to really make your eyes pop and it blends like a dream.
The final item within the box comes from Sleek and it is the Face Form Contouring and Blush palette in light (£9.99). I am a huge fan of Sleek palettes and this one is a multitasking palette which is perfect for being on the go.
Made up of a bronzer to help with contouring, a highlighter for radiance and a blusher to add a hint of colour. I adore the rose gold blush which has peach undertones on this palette, it can be applied as a light dusting of colour or can be built up to add more of a flushing colour. The bronzer isn't too dark, so it works well with my fair skin and the highlight shade is a sparkly creamy beige shade.
Putting all of these products together, this is an incredible box which fits in really well with the Summer Soiree theme and whether you are going abroad, having a staycation or going to the races, a wedding or a garden party, then you have just about everything you need to be ready in this box.
