Unboxing My June Glossybox

purchased affiliate links

June Glossybox will me by last one for a while. I re-subscribed for three months to get a fresh taste of the service, but I think I had enough for now. As always, this particular box took two turtles and a snail to get to me, so I’m writing this review super late, but I hope it will at least provide those of you unfamiliar with this subscription with a general idea about the service. Alright, here’s what I got!

Glossybox June 2015 Review & Unboxing >> https://glamorable.com | via @glamorableHOW IT WORKS: Glossybox is one of the most popular international beauty subscription services, and now it finally came to the US. Each month Glossybox subscribers receive up to six deluxe-size to full size products from crème de la crème of international brands. At $21/month this is one of the more expensive monthly sample boxes, but the value of your box will always be way above. If you would like to use my referral link click here to join Glossybox. Thank you!

Glossybox June 2015 Review & Unboxing >> https://glamorable.com | via @glamorableThe first product I noticed was a very generous bottle of Nexxus New York Salon Care Color Assure Restoring Conditioner; it wasn’t big enough to be a full size, but also not small enough to qualify being called travel-size. I am actually familiar with Nexxus’ Color Assure line, and I tried their glossing mist before, which by the way I liked a lot and even purchased, but still haven’t used up. After using this conditioner a couple times, I thought it was pretty nice, but not outstanding – nothing worth paying premium price for.

Glossybox June 2015 Review & Unboxing >> https://glamorable.com | via @glamorableCity Cosmetics City Lips is a lip plumper that doesn’t sting. Unlike the regular plumpers that should be applied right before your lipstick, City Lips recommended using this one before you go to bed as an overnight treatment, so I did. What initially sounded like a gimmick, turned out to be a fabulous product! I woke up with smooth lips that did in fact look a little fuller than the night before, and all of my dryness was completely gone, too. I am not ready to dish out $35 regularly for it, but I bet there are many satisfied customers over there. Good stuff!

Glossybox June 2015 Review & Unboxing >> https://glamorable.com | via @glamorableEtre Belle Cosmetics Aloe Vera Ultra Moisturizing Gel is probably the most summery product in the box, because what can be better than lightweight, non-sticky oil-free gel that is full of soothing and hydrating ingredients? To me this felt like a normal aloe vera gel, and at this point I’ve used up my sample entirely.

Glossybox June 2015 Review & Unboxing >> https://glamorable.com | via @glamorableToo Faced Better Than Sex Mascara is a holy grail mascara for many beauty bloggers, but I haven’t used it in a while, so I totally forgot how much I liked it. The wand is has fluffy bristles that make my lashes defined and voluminous, and the formula has just the right thickness to hold curl.

Glossybox June 2015 Review & Unboxing >> https://glamorable.com | via @glamorableThere were many different color variations sent out, and I received my ORLY Nail Lacquer mini in Sheer Nude. As the name implies, this is a work and school appropriate shade that can be worn by anyone anytime. I like that nude polishes make my short fingers appear longer, and give my nails a classy look.

THE VERDICT: This box had some nice products in it, and most importantly – very generous sizes. My favorites were a newly rediscovered Too Faced mascara, the ORLY mini nail polish, and of course City Lips lip plumper. Also, there weren’t any duds in the box, which is quite amazing, considering that I can be very picky sometimes!
