GlossyBox June 2012

On Tuesday I received my GlossyBox for the month of June. If you would like to know more about what GlossyBox is, check out my previous GlossyBox post.

So who would like to see what I got in my box this month..?

This months box is beauty themed.

Ta-da, my June GlossyBox contents.

This month I recieved

• MeMeMe- Sensuous Nail Gloss (5ml sample)

• Caudalie- Eau Fraiche in Zest De Vigne (10ml sample)
• Vichy- Dermablend Ultra Corrective Foundation Cream Stick (6g sample)

GlossyBox- Pro Exclusiv Beauty Brush.

There seems to be quite a bit of hate going around for this brush. I think that it's not a bad brush at all & a handy addition to my brush collection. The bristles are quite soft & densely packed. Mine doesn't seem to be falling apart as other have mentioned. I think the size & design is good. What I really like is the size of the brush head. I would use this primarily as a blusher brush because I find I have smaller cheeks & some blusher brush heads are slightly too big for my preference. This one is a perfect size. I tested this with the bronzer and it worked fine.

MeMeMe- Sensuous Nail Gloss.

This nail gloss is a opaque peach colour. It really does have a very high shine finish. The first coat does go on slightly streaky, but I think 3 coats gives a nice even & opaque finish. I always walk past the MeMeMe section at my local Superdrug, but after trying this I went in & tried a few products out. They had some nice boxed blushes that seemed pretty good. Maybe next time they might come home with me...

This is 3 coats of the Sensuous Nail Gloss.

BM Beauty- Summer Warmth Bronzer.

This bronzer is a beautiful, shimmery gold with peachy undertones. It is perfect for the summer & will look gorgeous on slightly tanned, tanned & darker skin tones. Some of the lighter beauties were a bit upset that it was too dark for their skin tones, but I think this would also be a very beautiful eyeshadow. I also heard that it could be mixed into foundation, so maybe that's something to try...

A little goes a long way. My tip for application would be, to dip desired brush into product (getting a tiny amount onto tip) then swirl in the lid & then tap off any excess & swipe onto apples & cheekbones. Hey presto, one bronzed beauty!

Caudalie- Eau Fraiche in Zest De Vigne.

This is a very lemony fragrance. If you love the scent of real lemons, this is definitely for you. I prefer more girly sweet fragrances so not quite for me. This is a very nice size for a sample, great handbag size.

Vichy- Dermablend Ultra Corrective Foundation Cream Stick.

This sample has 6 different foundation shades in it. The foundation is a heavy coverage, which I don't necessarily need but I would like to try this on my under eye circles. I swatched one of the shades on the back of my hand & the texture seems nice. It feels 'light' (& not cakey) once buffed in & doesn't have any scent.

I am a little confused with the colour descriptions but I guess I will have a play & do some trail & error.

 

Hope you enjoyed seeing what I got in my box.

 

Lots Of Love XOXO
